PvP Pairing System Fraud (The Neogate)

I’ve been gathering info for 1 month to finally make this post so i hope the evidence is enough for everyone to realize the behemoth is going unseen by most of the community.
The thing is we have a group of players that are abusing the PvP matchmaking system in order to achieve the highest places in the PvP leaderboard (as high as top 10 so this is nothing to ignore). The fraud consist in once they reach the 120 wins fir the rewards they start loosing intentionally, im not talking of trying new teams and loosing im talking about intentional loosing as i will prove later on, the lose more than 200 games in order to drop to the lowest brackets of PvP matchmaking system doing it a few days before ranked PvP starts. This way they spend the first 2 days of ranked playing against extremely weak opponents allowing them to reach the 40 - 45 K rating extremely fast but as i said they face extremely weak opponents so they win very easily and therefore they go up in the brackets very fast so the last day of ranked they start facing top players and they get stuck in the same rating unable to maintain they place because they can’t compete against the top ones. As far as i know i have evidence of 2 players doing this and they have obtained top 20 both including this season and I’m pretty sure although i have no evidence that another player is doing it and reached top 10 the previous season. I already reported this to @Dev_VKC 2 days ago hoping they were at least removed from the leaderboard but no action was taken so I’m taking justice in my own hands.

EVIDENCE

General Notes: One of the most important aspects that make me start suspecting a fraud was that these players were placing in the top of the leaderboard the first and 2nd day BUT none top player i knew faced them until late on the 2nd day and the 2rd day on ranked at the same time they got stuck in the same Rating. This is what i explained above they dodged facing top players until the last day by intentionally loosing before ranked started

1st HTD LEMONS (HTD NighTBlack)
This one was a former TNC member so i know the player really well to now he is not remotely a top 20 material BUT this is not a reliable evidence because is just my opinion BUT this is what made me suspect from the start until i met him on October the 19th at 11 P.M. (he had his IGN changed and i didnt know it was him but the IGN he was using and the “team” i faced forced me to take a screenshot fir further investigation)
And here they are



As you can see he was using only one monster team and in top of that his IGN “Victoria Gratis” means literally Free Win in spanish. This guy is so dumb that rat on himself so stupidly and for the ones that doubt is him an exclanmate of mine in TNC shared an screenshot of his battlelog after defeating him on the 3rd day of ranked and you all can compare the screenshots to see they have the same friend code

This guy has reached the top 20 twice thanks to this fraud and i faced him the in the 24th ranked season and he was no match fir a top player he reached the top 20 with a poorly built team and NO skill.

2nd TOG JoseAce

I didn’t caught this one loosing intentionally but he did the mistake of posting his WR on facebook so i can’t ask for a better evidence

As you can see 54.21 % Win Rate for a player with 48 K rating as a previous top 10 myself i can prove that in order to reach that amount of points a 75% win rate during ranked is the minimum required because there are 98 tickets in total if you lose 1/4 is more or less 24 games you will end up with 45 - 50 K rating. So having such a low WR with such a high rating only means his WR Before ranked was extremely bad due to loosing intentionally
His friend code is 17750654 (if anyone caught him doing what I’ve told)

3rd TOG Nightmare

I have no evidence fir this one but i meed to mention is because i suspect of him as well and im very sure he did it too. I say this because this player was a former TNC too and he was at best an average player that his best result before that top 10 was a top 100!!! In top of that i met him on the 3rd day too of that ranked and then again his team was NO top 10 material for sure as his decision making.
His friend code is 71954582 (if anyone has caught him doing this fraud)

CONSEQUENCES

I think they are obvious enough. This players are taking away fraudulently rewards and places from others who deserve it by playing fairly and honestly. This is becoming more common every season due to the results it gives so if no action is taken a catastrophe is near by. The names of these cheaters will appear on the PvP reports for the months or years this game have left setting a bad example and diminishing the prestige of reaching those high placements.

SOLUTIONS

I think a full background check has to be done on these players in orther to confirm my accusations as it should be done from now on in ALL top placing players in PvP.

These cheaters MOST be removed from the leaderboard and PvP reports and it’s rewards taken away and even permanent ban should be consider

From now on the PvP Ranked Pairing system should be based on the bracket the player was on the end of the previous season ranked not counting Non ranked this way the won’t be able of doing it season after season at least.

Incase this is true, making it public will just make more people do it

I´d really like to know where all that bracket MM info is coming from, alot of people think f.e. HR>100 does not play vs HR<100 but that´s just misinformation spreading on this forum.

I disagree. By bringing this in public these fraudsters are exposed and devs might be able to stop them to go down brackets and prevent this from happening in the future.

I think a ban from online content would be a reasonable punishment and this feature you described should indeed be implemented to prevent this. I bet these people are really proud of what they’ve done as well…

That’s the goal making this public will force immediate action because if don’t things will go nuts

Interesting

I dunno how people that high patience to lose that many matches.Even if it is that is quite pathetic tbh.I think we can just let it go because that amount is quite insane and the rewards they get for it definitely not worth that time or I am just wrong about it

100 HR doesn’t mean strong opponent. Most of players who reach that HR are still newcomers and doesn’t have a strong account

Is worth the prestige.

It´s just a misinformation though, HR seems to matter nothing for the matchmaking system.

In fact, I am also curious why there are so many weak players in the top ten

Damn!! I had a screenshot of my battle log in which I won against somebody called “Free Win”, but I must have deleted it when I did some storage clearance…

I met him at the very very beginning of the season. He had a team full of 5★ Mythics, I don’t know if anyone met him too.

Btw the amount of thoroughness in this mini-investigation is amazing

Well it is in that way but they are mostly doing it for the rewards anyway

I don’t think any of the top 10 was weak this season,i only doubt 2 of them

Pardon my ignorance but i don’t know that word :sweat_smile:

You carried out a very precise and complete investigation!
