Pvp Betting System (Sort Of)

I don't know if someone already put something like this so forgive me if I'm repeating someone. What if we could have a a betting system in PvP. Example: 1v1 game mode where the cheap crap is banned, you would bet a mod or platinum on yourself and if you won you kept your mod or platinum and took whatever the opponent bet. Also if you left you would forfeit whatever you bet (thanks -ExT-Skitz0 for finding that loophole) Was just thinking of this when I was recording some PvP game play. :P Let me know what you think. :) Now go listen to some awesome techstep! :D

The problems I can see are the platinum betting and banning "cheap crap", someone is gonna lose after they bet plat on themselves start to complain and ruin it for the rest of us.  Also how would you ban "cheap crap" and what is defined as "cheap crap"?  I can already hear the complaining of those who can't use their Boltor Prime or Rhinos.

This Invites people to Alt+Tab and end game if they are losing, which is already a rampant problem. until the option to abort is replaced with a team surrender vote option. And there is a penalty to leaving the game early, your suggestion would be fool hardy.   But if both of those are implemented, I wouldn't mind betting some plat.

Nobody said you have to bet platinum, you can bet a mod you don't want. I think cheap crap goes under abilities that can make you invincible or one shot. Boltor Prime isn't a problem because you could use mobility to your advantage, but Rhino's Iron Skin I could see a problem with. I don't really feeling like typing out a list of cheap mods and abilities so here is a pretty good list. https://forums.warframe.com/index.php?/topic/243533-things-that-needs-to-be-balanced-on-pvp-updated/

Damn, didn't think of that. Leaving should result in a surrender. Weather you ALT + F4 or just quit.

I never said that you had to bet platinum, I just think there would be less of a problem with betting mods.  Personally I like this idea a lot, but I can see an issue with banning a vast amount of mods, weapons and abilities.  Instead of enforcing changes like these, you could have a loadout created by the game, or whomever is in charge of the betting lobby that both players have to use in order to take part in combat.
