For those that don't like the gg nuke team, it won't last long once the meta shifts. It requires the opponent to have lowered defense from ferocity to work.
The next meta likely won't have that so gg nuke teams will lose their usefulness when that happens.
In the meantime it isn't breaking the game. We have 2 in our shard out of the top 50. Over 40 are still darth revan teams. I switch in ep, triumvirate, and dark bastilla and never lose vs r7 gg. Dark bastilla is r2 but the rest are just g12. So pretty easy to beat on offense.
I personally like it just for the fact that it gives me a battle or two that aren't the same as all the others.
Consider that your shard may not be representative. My shard has at least a dozen GG nuke squads climbing daily in the Top 50. Several are run by people who have 2 million GP in a shard that is four years old. I’d be fine if it was just one more squad good players could optionally run. But it is serving as a shortcut for bad players to climb.
If you have a decent team, you shouldn't have any problem beating them.
Yes the number may vary from shard to shard. But that really doesn't change my analysis.
And roster GP is a poor indication on how well someone can do in arena, considering one team of about 120k or 130-140k with relics is really all you need to take first. You need one set of mods for that team and enough gear for one team.
A 2 mil gp player in a 4yr old shard likely took some time off but if thery returned and farmed darth revan and jkr, it is easily possible for them to eventually het back up to arena even without the gg nuke team.
And the factvthat they aren't as committed time wise to the game (took a break) or haven't spent as much money as you doesn't mean they are bad players.
