Honest question, why are the modders that disconnect the other player so hard to detect?

This has been happening for seasons now. I truly don't understand why this should be hard to identify - are there that many real disconnects during battlegroups?
So this season, I had no desire to push for higher tiers. I figured the cheaters were probably past me. Silver 3 and boom, same pattern - you are about to win the fight and magically you keep disconnecting until you forfeit. My elder marks are flushed down the tiolet.
It is beyond frustrating.

I don't think there's any mod that can force you to disconnect. I can't even imagine how that would happen since you aren't connected during the fight. You make the choice and send it to the server, the server processes that choice and reflects back to show both of you what you pick. You then fight in a round but you're fighting A.I, not the actual opponent.

The disconnects are from your connection to the server and how stable that connection is.

Except that it only happens during BGs. And it does not happen when you are losing.
I understand probability and RNG. But I have two accounts and at some point it is beyond to me.

Yeah, its a bug on Kabam not a modder...

honestly true.
its one of the only real time PvP event, even AW isnt actually account vs another. BG takes 2 connections leading into kabams connection that allows both parties to fight vs each other. its logical to say BG might have modders disconnecting or having some type of advantage. i say this b/c when i "disconnect" i get a lose streak, but if i lose then obviously the other party wins right? its not like we both lose, it clearly shows them winning a medal and advancing. so if its not a hack or mod, why is one part punished with both losing a streak and the resources to enter a fight and the other gets to advance?

Yes, it would happen in BGs as it relies on communicating to server more than running arena or incursions. You need a really stable connection to be able to receive back what is happening between you and your opponent.

Dude, I've noticed and said this exact same thing. I've literally had my fight to do this disconnect thing when I'm sitting in my room where my Wi-Fi router is with full bars. Like how the hell do I disconnect when I have full service?!?
