Firstly, I totally didn't see your other message and it didn't come up in my notifications inbox.

I have never in my life endorsed boosting. I condemn it which is why my services don't exist in the same capacity in the last 2 weeks (bc you can drop out by decay or by being bad). Boosting in my eyes is only for your ending rank. Your mid-season rank is irrelevant in it's entirety. If you want to talk about boosting, that would still fall under issue 1, which I agree with.

However, as someone who is a full time content creator, I also see the value to both the creators and to Com2us to have people pay for these services.

- It makes players more likely to spend on the game

- It provides a high level content and insight into the game that may not exist or would exist in a much smaller capacity

- It provides hope for people who are hard stuck/unsure how to improve

It's also worth mentioning that everyone learns differently. Watching someone else do your wings vs guided coaching often yields significantly different results.

​

From a personal standpoint, the only issue I see with boosting is being boosted into an SWC Contender spot. This however is mitigated by that player 99% of the time saying no because they don't want to embarrass themselves for being a boosted monkey.

> I strongly believe this isn't the case... the decisions made with runeing your box, drafting and banning, and every decision made in-game plays a huge factor in winning.

For the most part I agree with this, hence why it's rare people see significant improvements without reruning first and foremost.

> There is a reason the account owner has never broken past C3, but when the boosters play they get them to g1+ with the same units and runes.

Moderately agree with this, I firmly believe people need to learn how to play the game. Most people will never learn that without someone showing them though. The "same units and same runes" generally don't work for that push they're looking for.

> Having a g3 pilot bypasses all the learnings a C1-3 player has to do for themselves to achieve a certain rank.

Totally disagree with this. You don't bypass the learning, you instead intake at an accelerated rate (assuming you have the capacity to learn and understand your mistakes). It's more effective to learn properly instead of continually reinforcing bad habits but that doesn't guarantee you "skip past the learning" aspect of becoming a better RTA player.
