Probaly because every team they come across that could give them a run - rolls over and plays dead in the FR instead chasing honor per hour. Its a shame really. Id rather try to force APES to roll over.
It’s not win trading unless they go back and forth. Big suprise you cant see the difference.
I’ll attempt to explain the logic.
Ranking means getting top honor on your server. To do this you need as much HPH in the time your online in order to stay in the top brackets. When you face a tough opponent, a game could literally take 30+ minutes, thus HPH is in the garbage. Because of this there is no point, may as well lose quickly (irregardless if it would have been a close fight), for a better chance at easier, quick games/Honor.
Then it’s collusion which is just as bad. Not to bring politics into this, but the US president was just impeached for collusion among other things. This is serious stuff in the real world, and shouldn’t be tolerated in game either.
