You are meant to send player reports via the offending user's profile page(top right "Report this player" button)

This won't have any effect on the actual cheaters and any such restrictions will undoubtedly end up affecting legitimate users more.

I tried that and it doesn't work. If you try to report by kingmaking, it say to RT the player, but you can onbly do that if you played recently with those players. And I suspect you can only report games you took part in.

If it is systematic cheating, send it as a multiaccount report.
BGA doesn't take kingmaking reports.

That is incorrect.

One player lose 4 games on purpose in last hour of arena season so the other player achieved a place that would earn him an invitation to Hive World Championship. But they are different persons, no multi account.

Maybe, maybe not. Your only other option is to try to ignore that the cheating happened.

You may want to contact the organizers directly.

Yeah, they are different persons. And the Hive World Championship committee already know about the cheating. OP is a committee member.

Thanks for the answers!

You can red thumb anyone, but public red thumbs are restricted to those you either played with or received messages from recently
