Of course it's ethical! Otherwise, what's the point in upgrading and bettering your hangar?
I like competition. I DO play fair and I'm a good sport so if I talk smack in qny kind of competition, it's in a friendly way. I'm not a d1ck about winning or a sore loser. If I feel that way, I don't show it out of respect.
However, with that said, I'm not in charge of the matchmaking (nor would I want to be). I'm also not about to let anyone else win or take it easy on anyone just be cause I'm better. Because I know for damn sure no ones gonna take it easy on me if they're better. And I have PLENTY of matches where I get smeared.
So in conclusion, I won't tank or fade to purposefully put myself in a position to outmatch my opponents, so as far as whatever I get matched with.,.?
Who cares? Crush 'em all.

It's unethical to not play to the best of your ability.

It's unethical for matchmaking to put you against equally good enemies, but put you along side 「dookie」 teammates.

One of the best ruminating on this topic that I've ever seen is by a fantastic game designer and world champion of Street Fighter, Dave Sirlin. He wrote a book called "Playing to Win." You can read it free on his web site. You may or may not choose to read the whole thing, but it's worth skimming, at least. www.sirlin.net/ptw/

Man exists in order to learn and better themselves, therefore it would be unethical to not beat their stinkin' brains outa their skulls! Think of it as a teaching moment...

I chose OTHER Why...first I'd like to win as much as next bloke, but being in expert league, there is no fun there. MM is wrong and it places you against stronger opponents. Now I am not the who will b!tch about loosing game to players of equal hangars, truck no, better player then me so be it. I want to have fun int his game and experiment with different hangars and that cannot not be done in Expert league, it needs to be done in a lower leagues where upgrading your robot is not that imporant.
you can all hate me/ despise me for this if you want, but by dropping my leagues I started to enjoy this game again. once I get down to where I want to be,I am going to bring out my Vytaz, Golem, Boa and even Schutz, yes you read it correctly, my little Schutz with thunder.

Why not just bring out your bots of choice now? That will drop you down to where you want to be naturally.

Let me tell you that in 4 days, I have dropped from expert 2 all the way down to silver 1....my Vytaz, Golem, Boa and Schtuz are all on lvl 3 or 4 and weapons are 6. so much fun and game is enjoyable again. Just had my first battle with them and lvl 3 stalker with lvl 4 punshers.

A better question is whether it's ethical to allow so many oxygen thieves to download and play War Robots...
On topic: Kind of a silly question ( And most likely tongue-in-cheek ), but yes. It's ok to be a better player than some people. It's also ok to be worse than other people.
I do like winning, so being better is preferable.
Edit: I voted 'other'

Edit: I voted 'other' I'm sure(or hope) you and +DethHilt+ picked up on it already, but this whole thread is tongue-in-cheek. Thought it'd be a nice satirical twist on all of the ethics polls that were thrown up in the past week.

it's only unethical if you win all the time when you are on the toilet taking a dump. i would hate to face you... your to good .. find another game.
edit: don't strain to hard you might throw out your back, you would have to have someone wipe your butt so you can go to the hospital ER.... thats just not a good look.

If you don't have 3 ancelots and 2 rdb maxed then you pretty much feel like dead weight in a lot of matches...

Being better than my opponent, if I am, has nothing to do with ethics. Tanking - unethical. Playing hard - ethical. Things adjacent to me being more skilled can get in to ethical conundrums, but attempting to win by non exploitive means is ethics free - it's a game - everyone gets rewarded for playing.

it all raises some good points, but it got me thinking, can you have spies? I am pretty sure some of my fellow blues are closset reds.
I actually think pix should develope a 'defect' button, on those matches where a quad butch zenith drops beside me followed by his zenit natasha buddy, I would be hitting that button fairly quick

Every game you get to exchange 1 player with the other side... and whatever pilots are exchanged first are untouchable by the other team, so if they lost their best they would not be able to ask for them back... Hmmmm... all kinds of possibilities. Oh yeah... Squads would negate that option.
