Does Pix care about Tankers? Of course!

I can up.you on that.  These were the last few skirmish games.  They all tanked on

seem to me they abandon what was initial promising to "i don't give a poop."

All they have to do to resolve tanking is set up the system so that each league has a maximum equipment level, and if someone drops into a lower league by accident or intention, all of their gear is automatically set to the maximum of that league

People who play like the tankers - such as black knights- or certain other 'clans' are cowards and a digrace to the game. simple as that
I have played so many including black knight in Diamond 3 or even Gold 1 WIth their tanked up L12Mk2 squad.. saaaaad should be ashamed of themselves.
im not sure what Pixonic can do - except sanction repeat offenders -

Let's assume that Pix doesn't really want to fix the whole thing by introducing hangar power based MM. To fix league based MM, there are a few simple things which would help a lot:

First one or two players to mech out can't leave the battle. If they leave and try to get a new battle, they just go back to the old one as spectators, just like after losing the last bot. Also if you have any bots left, you go back to the old battle for as long as it is ongoing, no new battles without complete mech-out. Now both tanking and mode and map skipping is much lower, there is actually an immediate penalty for leaving too soon.

Also, simple change to MM period: give 3+ second window to hit "skip" after being shown mode and map you are matched in, while also showing the number of players currently found for the battle. Limit skips to 2 or something to make MM work faster.

Make league point gain exponentially relative to total damage done in the battle for winners, so if you outclass others, you are going to go up like a rocket. Staying down in leagues with overpowered hangar is going to be difficult.

Make league point loss equal to all losers, so trying to be last losing blue will not help you lose league points any faster.

Bang. Suddenly tanking very hard. Even intentionally staying low is very hard, because once you do much more damage than others in your league level, you just can't stay there.

And if you don't do any damage, you will neither lose nor gain any league points.

Make leagues dynamic, so that there is a fixed % of players in each league (possibly fixed # in Champions). Either "normalize" the league scores daily, or change the thresholds between leagues daily, to make sure there are enough players in each league to be able to have decent MM without mixing leagues.

Add win # limits to leagues, something like 500 makes you Gold, 1000 makes you Diamond, 2000 makes you Expert, 400 makes you Master, and it's your responsiblity to have decent bots after playing that many battles.

every Tanker i have reported since the past year are still playing an are running amuck in lower leagues, i check their pilot ID from time to time some have quit but most i are still being 「wee-wee」s in lower leagues.

When I first started playing and encountered Clubbers I was aghast because it's clearly sanctioned cheating. It's clear now that all the naysayers were correct that Pix has no interest, despite their claims to the contrary, in fixing it. It is clearly the easiest way to garner resources and couple that with the fact that there are fully sanctioned Clans that not only encourage but facilitate hardcore tanking and you obviously have a recipe for institutional manipulation/cheating. Sad but that's the reality.
