It would be different if the player ranking were based on fighting in a legitimate PvP system outside events, but that will never happen. The competition is not in the form of PvP. If you help other players strengthen their deck by trading, you are making it easier for them to beat you in the rankings. Trading might just end up being a way to make you buy more cubes because you now have stronger competition.

Sure your deck gets stronger, but the advantage is almost always for the weaker player even if the trade is 100% equitable since the improvement to their deck is greater than it is to yours. There is little incentive to trade with weaker opponents, they gain more than you do.

it still comes down to the amount of time and money you put into the game. Even if they were the better player and get an even better deck, you can still outrank them through the time you put into the game. Yes, it will be easier for them, but usually only on low-level bosses.
