KABAM Please Fix This AW Scoring System...

First off, let me say that I appreciate the idea of creating a change to AW in an attempt to make it new and fun.
However, the new scoring system (particularly defender diversity) is complete garbage. First off, people used to actually enjoy seeking out those top tier defenders in Arena, or hoping to pull one from a crystal. Now there is no reason to want any specific defender unless it's a new one someone else in the alliance doesn't have. Secondly, there is no point to this. I mean seriously... the fact that a Win or Loss can be determined by something entirely unrelated to an alliances skill level is absolutely stupid. In the previous AW setup, it was common to see Hyperion, Magik, Mordo, Iceman, ect. all over the map. And even though it got old, at least it required players with skill to clear the map and get the win. Now the nodes are not only too easy so every BG is getting 95%+ exploration, but you can still somehow lose to a less skilled alliance simply because they have more diverse players... this is total ****. I know a large number of players agree with what I'm saying. Some of the lower tier alliances or casual players may not care. But AW and AQ are really the two most fun parts about this game. And you've completely taken the fun out of one of those.
Please consider at least tweaking the scoring so that defender diversity can be a bonus to the overall score, but not a deciding factors in wins or losses.
And please don't tell me Defender PI is your answer.. that is also entirely non-skill related.
