The bug is probably investigated (

)

, but the effect should be now too much impactful for no more updates asap. Indeed, the 1st World bracket is now a bracket of 3-6M players accounts with 1 or 2 GLs unlocked. This continue with more brackets, where the 3rd bracket contains player even out of TOP50, like Tassenix (should be 17th into 24th)

https://swgoh.gg/p/427325834/gac-bracket/ 1st world bracket

https://swgoh.gg/p/993282814/gac-bracket/ 2nd world bracket (One 14M account)

https://swgoh.gg/p/543584178/gac-bracket/ 3rd world bracket (4 10+M accounts)

We have only 4 players with more than 10M+ GP in the top50 now... A lot of the 46 others one (accounts at 3-6M GP) will see their SR decrease highly at the end of the season if they don't play, but like each season until ~6 months now, some new random players are propulsed at 4500-5000 SR with the new formula at the beginning of the new season. This leads to a promotion of category for these players each season (less or more important depending some conditions that decrease their SR or not), that will become the new "propulsed" players in TOP50 Kyber. In that case, the top50 Kyber is now depleted of 10M+ GP accounts.

This scenario totaly cancel any reason to do ranking rewards (top50, top200...), but mainly leads to matchups that are totaly not fun or illogical in top50 Kyber confronting 6 or 7 low GP players (https://swgoh.gg/p/892413765/gac-history/?gac=175&r=1&a=a) in top world brackets (https://swgoh.gg/p/427325834/gac-bracket/ 1st world bracket)

The bug probably comes from lowest category (Aurodium into Bronzium), as you can see in screenshots that only lowest category contains already a lot of 5000SR account (which should not be possible) that could be in Kyber 1 top50 soon, because of an issue in the new SR formula on inactive Carbonite players being promoted in Aurodium with squissh SR at ~5000 (and being active later to keep their propulsed SR), like this account https://swgoh.gg/p/488939412/characters/ 1st world actually.

And this bug lock now the top50 Kyber to all non "propulsed SR" bug players, the effect be growing each season (#31 player after a 3/3 last week is now at #46 https://swgoh.gg/p/297546974/)

Thank you for reading that long message, hoping to be understandable and having fun again in GAC with more appropriate matchmaking and ranking soonish.

EDIT : Update of image size

  • Same problem for me. It’s very not acceptable for rewards to players like us who invest in the game. 
    I hope you will find a solution very soon. 

    Thanks
