You queue up and either get enough people with a clue to pretty much dominate as before, or you spend a match unable to do anything as people spam alliance chat with "don't chase <se.3>" "fall back <se.1>" "objectives > kills"
    Not every game is gonna be an even match. You're still gonna get some one side games from time to time but still better than a single Grand Company winning 100% of the time.

    The matches aren't more exciting because PvP in this game is a complete mess due to various fundamental technical issues, lack of serious matchmaking, blatant unbalance, and constant changes to the mode with little to no player feedback. Now add an apathetic player base and you get an aspect of the game that's always gonna be doomed to fail.

    Everyone is going to have a different experience both pre change and after the change, some people will notice a increase in wins, some will notice a decrease in wins....its to early to tell and in the end its SE that has all the numbers and will be able to notice if there has been a overall increase in balance or not.

    That said from personal experience i was in Adders when the new pvp map launched and alltho i que as freelancer i never ever got into the mael GC, overall my win ratio was about 10%.

    I am now in mael gc (changed cause i wanted to see if the grass was greener on the other side ) and since this new change im at 40% win ratio after 25 matches.

    Dosnt rly conclude much over such a small number of matches but there it is anyway

    edit: thats weekly win % btw.
