Re: TW matchup system horribly flawed - lopsided GP matches

★★ Novice

Our guild is under 1 year old as it began July 2017.  We only have about 45 GP.  We sometimes get horribly mismatched in TW and never with the advantage going to our guild.  The latest is the strangest as this guild shows they have a lower GP than ours, but only by about 3 million.  However, they have several whales it appears that are under 50 in arena. A few of them were registered on swgoh.gg.   We don't have a single player that is even under 100 in arena in our guild.  One had at least 20 characters in GL 12.  Of course they put all their arena teams in the front areas.  Although at least 8 people tried to take out one of these top 50 arena teams they all failed.  We have not been able to clear one area which is a first for us.  Although TW is not over yet, I believe that people just stopped trying.  This team does not belong in the 30 to 40 GP tier at all.  As someone else pointed out, too many mismatches and people simply won't participate anymore.  It's very demoralizing when you can't even begin to compete.

matchmaking isn´t still working:

our guild, best 20 players : 1736 toons on 7*; 205 toons with g12; 289 toons g11; 245 toons g10; 215 toons g9

opponent best 20 player: 2014 toons on 7*; 242 toons with g12; 423 toons g11; 274 toons g10; 277 toons g9;

on average they are 20% stronger than us

and the hero toons:
jedirey: 14 (they) vs. 3 (us)
cls: 37 (they) vs. 29 (us)


the matchmaking is still completely unfair

it seems they have no time for fixing bugs, they are working on the next raid-reward-nerf. it was announced that after the sith-raid-reward-nerf also the pit and aat rewards will be nerfed in the same way...

Seems to be broken again.

29mil GP difference in our case and they have vasts more of everything, so not sure how it would have been calculated as a fair battle.

Ok they where a few members short so not the full 29mil GP but they averaging at 2.3mil GP and we are 1.6mil GP per member.

They can have full tiles of same/similar teams  on all 3 tiles seen so far, we cant have that luxury.

They are walking through the war - well not much of a war - and i imagine in a couple of hours will have probably wiped all our tiles out.

 

Nothing via tactics could make this war winnable. 

I am also seeing reports of 50, 60 & 70 mil GP differences.

I think this needs reviewing again as its still terribly broken.

And active gp areas (50-59) are not the only areas you get matched against, we had 59 active, against 62 active. We won but still they shouldnt have been matched against us.

The very least you can do is to give the losing side the appropriate rewards of the winning team's bracket. A fix is of course a lot more enjoyable.

Solution change to a double bucket system in Increments of 10million (example 60 million gp guild would be in bucket 6 they deploy 30 million gp so with in that bucket they would be bucket will be 3)

TW matchmaking doesnt work at all - 20% more gp means the following:
Strongest lineup x2 amount. Means they will completely destroy you if they have good squads and any tactic

Guilds should be within 5% GP - many guilds allow such a system without an issue.

Certainly must include a roster gearlevel comparison. A g12 team is nearly unbeatable by g10 (must have good rng luck and a full counter and similar mods).
Stars mean nothing at all - but they raise the might level far too much.
Zetas also change a lot to the squad power - so those must be also counted.

Right now TW matchmaking doesnt work, same as the Sith raid and the brand new ship 2.0. I guess you must reconsider your developing and balancing team...last changes and updates are simply one sided and often not good.

Good:
Quests, Titles, automatic raid and join button, new characters from Solo movie (just change ingame picture of qi'ra and solo...adjust them a little it could be better)

Bad:
Ships 2.0, Sith raid p1, p3, p4 and TW matchmaking
