This is meant to be awareness for Kabaam not a hate post so PLEASE DO NOT post rhetoric that will get it taken down and dismissed. Grounded Wisdom if you have input, it is welcome, however I do not condone conversationally leading this into anything other than CIVIL discussion.
I've been in about 30 matches of energy play battlegrounds, my 6*R3 Kingpin doesn't get taken out quickly in this mode usually more than 50 seconds with suitable counters in the most extreme cases timeouts. The 1st match of ranked play with unit bought elders marks I cornered my opponent to use Black Widow Claire Voyant vs my R3 Kingpin. This account holder beat him in 30s. My match was R3 AA vs R2 Bishop. I finished in 39s with 94% hp this acct holder beat my KP in 30s with Claire at 99.5% hp.
The more ranked matches I played the more I noticed impossible feats being accomplished match after match in record time. Claire absolutely does not have the damage output (without 3rd party input) to beat a R3 KP in that time. Kingpin AI animation vs human BWCV interaction with her DPS is humanly impossible to overcome in that speed.
The largest problem is these 3rd party software TOS violators will only risk using their hacks in ranked play where the risk to reward is. Average players who risk stepping into this ranked paywall protected play will only do it until legit resource loss is realized and quit shortly thereafter.
There has to be a medium. If players pay for a game mode to financially return a profit on the developers salaries who developed it, it should be ethically protected in turn by those developers.
The rewards were instituted by your company. The payment to rank for those rewards were instituted by your company. Your Company should also ethically plan hacker countermeasures to protect those who participate.

If you reported them and Kabam has some way of detecting a cheat, then maybe they’ll be able to act. The mere act of cheating does not automatically flag anything, apparently, and this is where someone with tech knowledge could educate us on how detecting cheaters works.
But Kabam should absolutely not decide someone is cheating because it looks obvious from fight times like you describe.
You don’t get ANY elders mark to start, you need to grind your way to that. There has never been a mode (that I remember) you needed to grind your way through to begin attempting to get points towards milestones. That is the worst part of this game mode bar none. I won’t even get into the fact that the milestones are so pay to play.
You should have given us 300 elders mark to start and each time you reach a new medal you get 300. It’s not game changing because not everyone will win every match. Those who run out of elders mark will pay cash to get units to get them or use their units. Hell they may even grind out other modes to get units. Putting in a calendar isn’t suffice. I got my first set of elders mark entering silver. 50 measly tokens. Lol 3 ranked matches, I got 2 for 1 I lose 800 points.
All I have to say is you guys IMMENSELY missed the mark. No pun intended.
