Possible Bug Exploit by in Knockout Rumble

Hey everyone,

My team and I worked really hard to reach the top 3 in Knockout Rumble, but recently we’ve noticed some strange behavior with players like 

The game has a 10-match limit, but it seems like these two have found a way to break that limit. They are playing additional matches beyond the 10 allowed, and each time they do, they are gaining an extra 50 points, slowly climbing the leaderboard unfairly.

What’s even more suspicious is that their total scores don’t add up correctly when you look at their individual match stats.

    @javyxy  Its against the forum's TOS to name and shame other players.

    You should be able to report these players in-game or on ea.help.

    As for the mode, I personally feel like Rumble needs to be removed until all the bugs are resolved. It seems to have a ton of issues involving placement as I think the points not matching is caused by a bug through the re-entry system where it "resets" player's score, but not from the leaderboard itself, thus letting the score "count" past the 10 matches. This has been an issue since the first time Rumble was held, which was for Three Strikes.

    @Midnight9746 I'm sorry, I didn’t know about that rule. I just wanted to point out that the #1 and #2 seem to be using a bug. Thanks for the heads-up

    Hey @javyxy we don't allow accusing others of breaching the rules on AHQ.

    I've edited your post to remove the names and would ask that before posting again you take a moment to review the AHQ User Rules and Guidelines: https://answers.ea.com/t5/help/faqpage/faq-category-id/faq-user-guidelines

    If you suspect another user is in breach of the rules you can report them here: https://help.ea.com/en/help/faq/report-players-for-cheating-abuse-and-harassment/
