When playing against an opponent that you have won against several time in a row, you got an elo gain penalty (iirc I got a 44% one for my 4th consecutive win).
In arena, you can not decline to play such opponent and you are forced to play a game when you risk a disproportionate amount of Elo for the one you can gain (I think you win 0 elo with 8 wins for example), and it is a really frustrating experience, and quite unfair.
In the play now and game lobby filters, a « don’t play with consecutive wins penalty opponents » option would prevent this problem, which is far worse in turn base game when you filter same level players, as the fewer pool base can make you play the same opponents a lot.
