Don't be so sad you were on server 99 before and it was always this way. The merged actually helped with competition before the top 2 groups Excalibur and TheKages were 800,000 power apart now the top 2 group is Eclipse with only a 200,000 power difference. Now lets say each good player on your server is about 40k power that's only 5 ninjas that Eclipse needs to tie up the Kages, before EXCALIBUR needed 20 high power players. You seem to say that the game is less equal but its actually much better than before.
