System is rigged – Skillz, eSports for Everyone Review

On the outside this seems like a good idea, play games you know, win money, what's not to like? However in reality the developers have creatively developed a clever system to fleece people of their money. They state that they have created all this proprietary technology to guarantee fairness in matches, but in reality what they have created is an ingenious way of keeping truly skilled players from ever collecting any money! What happens is basically this.. If you are a skilled player and win too much, they will match you up against a better player so that you lose. So if you are good, you will just yoyo back and forth from winning and losing and never really make any money. In 20 matches, I played the same player 18 times! Since it is 60% on a loss and 40% on a win, it is very easy to go nowhere.. you have to win 3 out of 5 matches just to break even, and if you win too much, their "system" just matches you against a superior player to make sure you lose. So essentially, skilled players never make any money and poor players will lose money and have to deposit more! Be warned, if you deposit money you will not cash out! Thank god i never deposited anything! lasted a week on the $2 gift they gave me and went back and forth between $2 and $4 playing the same player 95% of the time, with the occasional introduction of a much better player if I won to many times in a row.. finally got lazy and lost 4 in a row.. .37¢ left.. will definitely not he making a deposit, total scam!
