GAC Cheater?

Just finished an interesting round of GAC where I narrowly lost.

Here's a screenshot of the results


Here are screenshots of the opponent's defence. I must admit I didn't do a good job of clearing some of his teams.




Here are screenshots of the opponent's profile, and the first 2 pages of his roster




After accounting for the teams the opponent used for defence, here are some potential teams they could have used for attack.
Sith Empire

Jedi

Empire

Imperial Troopers

Rebels


Here are screenshots of my defence (the teams my opponent defeated)




I am aware that these aren't spectacular teams on defence by any means, and I know that some teams can punch up significantly, but I just have my doubts that my opponent could have cleared my entire defence on the first try with what they had. I've had much stronger opponents in the past (twice the GP) who had to take more than one attempt to clear some of my teams.

Here is my roster for analysis if anyone is interested. https://swgoh.gg/p/874389552/characters/

What do folks think about the likelihood that my opponent won fairly? Thanks.

    Easiest thing is check .gg once the GA is over. Could very well be them having better mods and knowing their counters.
  • Even based on the limited snapshot of their roster you've shown here, I'd say this is completely doable. Darth Vader can solo those bugs, for example. While they don't have the Veers zeta, I'd say those troopers are still viable at this level. I'd also say their Palp and Mara are pretty good for this level even at g10. And this is to say nothing of the parts of their roster you didn't show. I notice they have a relic Bossk and g10/11 Fetts...how are their other bounty hunters? If they have Greef and Mando, that can be a viable offense team. At your league, your opponent only needs five teams for offense, and they've got that and more, I should think. Just because they're not g12 or above doesn't mean they're worthless. There's more to battles than gear. You haven't shown a mod comparison, for example.

    What's more is that I've tried to calculate soft max for your league, and it seems like your opponent is below that, so while they did better than you, it still means they are losing banners somewhere. I would expect most cheaters to hit soft max at least.

    Like others have said, you can always wait until the history goes up, but I don't feel like they're failing any "smell test" based on what you've shown.

  • It would pass the smell test by my book. You are gonna need to come back with .gg history.

    You gotta remove their identifying info. It is against the TOS of the forums.

    Thanks for reminder, I have removed their details.

    Yes, I will check .gg once it is over, just thought it didn't pass the smell test. Some of their characters are not even leveled up all the way or skills maxed, mods look ok on some characters but not for all.

    Thanks for the reply. Here is how their Bounty Hunters look like in general, as well as some of the characters you have mentioned. I've got to say his mods are...not good - quite random and not upgraded and several missing important secondaries like Speed. I can't do an exhaustive comparison here, of course.
