I just had the horrible thought, that the loading speed could be the fix.  
“Hey, players on low levels have a huge point advantage in the new Pvp. We have to do something about that quickly!” - “Meh, just give them a delay.”

I’m aware, that’s most likely not the pattern behind players getting longer or shorter loading times, but still, knowing this game, I would not be too surprised, if in January, we are informed, that everything is “Working as intended”[tm].

Hard to compete when I need to win 50% more battles than an opponent to get the same score. This week I’ve taken the highest VP battle available for each and every battle

The problematic loading times and restarts certainly have nothing to do with hero level . As a 3000+ level player, I have an average playing time per PVP fight of around 2 minutes (lag and restarts included).
