But that's nothing to do with pay to win, that is a form of balancing. If you're bad at the game the game gives you advantages so you can play with the big boys. Hopefully the game gradually turns off those advantages when you start getting good and high skill matches have no one with those advantages on.

That being said I've never played the game, or watched anything about it, so I might be missinterpreting what you're saying, but to me it sounds like a good balancing system to keep noobs from being frustrated and experts from destroying everyone who's not at their level of skill. It's like if CS gave you more damage or auto-aim if your account was low K/D ratio, they're trying to make everyone be on a leveled play field. Obviously competitive matches need to have that turned off, but for people playing just for fun that's the difference between every time I spawn I die and I can kill someone every once in a while.
