Jacob: Has multiple videos cheesing matches and purposely lowering his GSP Also Jacob: *GSP accurately depicts skill* If memory serves, doubles doesn't change GSP, that number could just be their roster average, and considering you can get to 5m GSP off like two wins, it's not hard to fudge the numbers. The player 2 is also using player 1's GSP number, so that's another obvious piece of evidence towards the correlation between player skill and GSP being inaccurate.

Just wanna leave a protip which: When the team battle is on the same console, as in Name1 / Name2, then the GSP generally doesn't matter, since it's actually taking the GSP of the console's owner, and not necessarily who's playing them. Like someone could be real bad with Roy, but his friend isn't, so when his friend picks Roy he only appears like 200k.
