Boosters are ruining pvp

I have seen this subject many times and have yet to seen a direct answer. The system in player vs player is fallen short to people cheating the system by getting separate accounts to lose to their wizard to sweep the leaderboards. This has got me and many people fed up about this. Is it something that can't be dealt with, or some how KI has yet to notice. I would love to finally get answers on this matter.

Perhaps make it to where you can only Battle the same person in ranked PvP a certain amount of times per day. Thats the only idea I could come up with.

I admit I boost. I really don't care about leaderboards to be honest. I just play ranked matches to get commander or warlord then stop. I even get losses on them too if the rank starts getting too high. I love the gear and just can not have enough wizards. I don't think there is anything wrong with it as long as you are not breaking any code of conduct, like account sharing, bad words, ect. I have 5 memberships, and 3 non memberships. They are all my own. I buy the crowns on the non memberships to buy the 24 hour pvp one day passes, and have some fun on the game.

Wolf, you are part of the problem, not the Solution.

Notice there is barely a Fraction of people that pvp these days?

No one likes a cheater, sorry.

Without paying players, this game will Die.

What I came up with some time ago was to force a player to be matched with someone other than their previous opponent, and strongly favour players who haven't played against them in the last hour.

Make boosting completley dead by making it illegal in pvp and being able to report after a pvp match. There will be no more boosters ever again :D

You can't prove boosting, you may suspect they are but you, personally, have no proof - reporting will soon be abused.

Yeh I have seen Low level Boosted, with treasure Cards just Destroy kids that cant afford to Pay to Win. PVP is suppose to be about your Skill vs there Skill, Not your Skill vs there Money.

Odds are, if you're in a random PvP match, you are not boosting. The specific act of boosting requires the player to avoid random PvP matches at all costs. Now you may end up fighting a warlord who got there by boosting, which is something different.

KI has got to address this issue. There are a lot of players, most of whom have memberships and purchase crowns, including myself, who are watching key aspects of the game disintegrate into flotsam and jetsam, and frankly, when the time rolls around to renew, I'm not certain many of us will not simply say "Ya know, I'm good, no more membership for me."
