Basically what the title says, what is considered to be an early game account, a mid game account and an end game account?Me for example, I’m guessing I’m pretty mid game? https://swgoh.gg/p/858614262/characters/

Those terms in this game are better measured by how the player feels.Early game - players are setting up for all the events and game areas, usually feeling like they have "very few choices"Mid game - still focused on events and higher level characters with requirements, but usually feeling like you have some choice in the path you are on."Late game" - almost all or all events are on farm at or close to the max level. Players can choose who they want to farm or focus on with little "need" more just to sure up a strategy or team they like.All of that is taken as layers on top of what is the "new and shiny", as those are always floating around and could have some impact on rewards in certain game modes. But some players dont play the meta and just want to collect so even the rough outline of definitions above is really just subjective. Also, these definitions don't really matter in a game like this. Some very focused players can have a few or many "end game" characters but not have other factions filled out, leaving them at a lower tier in some events. It's all about how you want to play, and what's important to you.

Is a pretty solid answer, look at my profil https://swgoh.gg/p/687943123/characters/, i consider this account as early end game / end mid game. But am i wrong ? IDK , and i think just don't care about this. Make your own progression and your own fun, it's a game :)

I could also see someone with some G11 mixed into their top 80 characters to have an “end-game” roster. While there is no clear-cut definitive way to judge what stage your roster is “rated,” I think Geo TB waves and Assault Battle Challenge Tier completions are decent metrics to use currently. How much of the game you can earn max rewards or perform well determines this “rating” IMO.

Early game, mid game and end game?

Oh right, so what would you consider mid game? Based on characters? GP? Sorry just trying to gauge where abouts I should actually be by 2.5m GP for example, then 3m and so on so on

At this point I think it has more to do with general roster than just GP. Mid-game is probably about when you have all the non-GL JG characters.

I agree, you can not measure those terms by GP.

Okay so I would probably say I’m early game still as it feels like I have little choice, especially in GAC where I struggle the most, I have no idea who to put on Defence usually leaving it weaker and easy to wipe out, have you got any advice for that my friend?

I’m focusing on getting a well rounded roster instead of one powerhouse of a team as that was the path I previously followed now looking at my roster as a whole, personally I don’t think it’s looking great

Your roster is solid. I would gear up Traya and Sion. Triumvirate is a solid GAC team that can easily take out much stronger Geo teams.

Also, consider bringing your Nighsisters up. They are a decent team for GAC as well (even without MT) and IIRC, not too hard to gear up.

Start here.

SWGOH.GG and others have information on defensive teams that will cost your opponents banners. That is a good starting place if you want to do better in GAC. You can also look at the teams that give you trouble and sure up counter teams, or develop them yourself for defense.
