pvp unfair?

after playing a few rounds i realised that i was often fighting people that were either far higher or far lower than me. this meant that i either won easily or lost after about 3minutes. i get that the pvp ranking system is supposed to stop unfair matches but if a level 39 private has to fight a level 50 that is also a private then it isn't fair. just because both players are privates doesn't mean they are equally matched. Please fix this KI :(

Yes, because if you do ranked matches it pairs you with people your LEVEL NOT people your RANK. Since I am level 44 I usually get paired with people around 40-45. So I am usually stronger since IO am about to level up.

Few Rounds and you call pvp unfair, done over 100 matchs and rank as commander now. Trust me... Not one win or lost has been match up fair.

Want fair pvp, get a chess set and invite some one to play lol

the system is far from perfect it trys to balance level with ranking and some matches end up lopsided.

It might work for you but i'm level 40 (39 in last match) and have been paired with a level fifty and with a level twenty eight. I agree with some of you that it is partially your strategy that helps you win. But the the strength of spells of all types differs so much you can hardly call it a fair fight. :(
