Rigged matches?

Hey guys, new-ish player here. I'm wondering if I'm crazy or is anyone else experiencing extremely rigged matches in Mech Arena?

I have a somewhat decent win rate (460 wins / 520 games) and I've started to notice that every single game my bots get completely demolished by the enemy team bots.

This is something I've been noticing for a while, even in the games I win, I have to constantly watch https://showbox.tools/ every single Capture point cause enemy bots simply dominate and push through mine.

As I'm completely f2p, I'm starting to think that this is a way for the game to push against you and force you to spend money since eventually the bots will become stronger and stronger, and you will simply lack the DPS from your weapons to deal with the onslaught of bots + the enemy players https://speedtest.vet/?

Of course I could be tripping and this last few weeks when I started noticing this could be nothing but a coincidence, but it's just weird that EVERY single game I check the scoreboard the enemy top bot usually has two times more damage than the top bot in my team.

If they truly did something like this, then it's the most disgusting, abhorrent shady game practice I've seen almost ever. But would you put it past Plarium, honestly?

Anyway what do you guys think? Has anyone had a similar experience, maybe on their f2p alt account?

Even today, I notice that issue. There usually are cheaters in the game, and I can usually tell because everyone will have around the same kills more or less, and one or two others will have 3-4 times the number of kills. It can really be frustrating

it feels this way for me too, that my bots always weaker than enemy team. 

BUT

Have a proper deep thinking about it.. if its true, it means that human on the opposite team has bots who are stronger.. so if you were that human your bots would do double damage comparing to enemy bots.. 

In short, i think it says it all.. its not rigged, we just tend to remember and notice the negatives.. 

Although what does seem to be possible is that it happens because of bad matchmaking, the enemy bots were stronger on purpose because system thinks that you are stronger than enemy human.. and that other human may be always lucky if system considers him weaker. It will always give him stronger bots or weaker enemies.

Im in general not happy with matchmaking, tournament or even hangar showdown is much more balanced. But if that matchmaking applies to normal games we would be unable to sp drop to complete stupid missions with autocanons or some other archaic weapon tasks for mechs.. i dont really want to play games full of geminis and savants all the time, i want shotguns and other weapons that dont kill enemy if you dont even see it. so i sp drop to go back in time, when shotguns and longarms were still a good weapon..
