A fair grand arena match...?

You’re basically asking the devs to make you a JV conference. Would you be ok with competing for significantly fewer rewards as a result of playing in JV? Because if they just matched you with other people who lose and matched the winners with other people who win, keeping the same rewards system as now, then the winners will be getting lower rewards so that you can get higher rewards. Why should the people you admit are better than you at this game mode get lower rewards due to only getting matched against each other?

Actually, what I’m “basically asking” the devs to do is re-evaluate the matchmaking in this game, as I, along with many others, find it really out of whack. For every one person like me who complains, there are undoubtedly others who don’t bother.. maybe they don’t care, or maybe they give up.

I never said the only reason I lose is because this game is exclusively pay to win (though if you can’t acknowledge that money can make a huge difference, I LAUGH LOUDLY IN YOUR FACE) .. read my words: I said IM OUT PLAYED. I’ve been getting out played since the beginning of GA. If you felt you were constantly up against players with teams you have no chance in beating, you would probably also get frustrated. As some people here have indicated, you’re basically screwed until you have the meta teams.. so I ask quite plainly, why am I matched up against players who have them EVERY TIME? I can understand if it’s 50% of the time..even 60% or 70% .. but when it’s every single time, I think it’s fair to question (and many others have too) the crappy matchmaking process that seems to favour some players over others.

But what am I doing? It was stupid for me to say anything here.. some people can understand, but as usual, the biggest response from people in these forums is to proclaim that the only possible answer is that there’s nothing wrong with matchmaking, I’m just awful, I don’t understand the game, etc .. I guess that makes all of you feel even more smug that this issue isn’t affecting you.. maybe as a casual player that’s just the way it has to be.. but at the very least I’m entitled to my opinion on this aspect of the game.

I probably expect too much from the devs.. I mean, they’re grossing around 12 million PER MONTH, but you know, everything is perfect right? And I’m the first person to ever complain about matchmaking right? And the way they constantly force you to “collect” and gear up hordes of new characters instead of generating content for the ones you’ve already invested is something I should never question right?

I’m not the greatest player in PVP, and at this stage, I certainly do not expect to defeat even half of my opponents .(mostly due to not having the toons they do)...but I guess I DO expect that I at least will have a chance at beating someone at some point..

Anyway, I tire of this.
