Fixing (not only) seasonal Elo - Part 2: Considering ranks when calculating Elo

To prevent what is commonly called Elo-farmers (i.e. highranks who gained most of their Elo by dueling lowranks) from distorting the leaderboard, there should be a slight modification to the original Elo-system. The idea is to consider the rank difference of players in certain cases, without impairing the benefits of the time-proven Elo system.
The modification only affects highranks who farm unexperienced lowranks with little to no experience at dueling.
Abstract: If one of the duelists has a rank lower than 10 and at the same time an Elo-rating of lower than 1150, the rank difference between the players gets multiplied by 100 and added to the higher rank's Elo for the process of calculating the gain/loss of Elo-points at the end of the duel.
Example: Consider players Alpha and Beta, where Alpha is a rank 7 with an Elo-rating of 1200 and Beta a rank 5 with an Elo-rating of 1000. The rank difference of two ranks will account for 200 Elo-points in my model, which are added to the 1200 Elo-points of player Alpha for the calculating process. So we have a token-Alpha with a rating of 1400, which together with the 1000 Elo-points of player Beta will be used instead of the original 1200 to calculate the gain/loss for each player at the end of the game, using the original Elo formula.
This would only apply when one of the players has a rank lower than 10 and a rating of lower than 1150, since higher ranks have all the upgrades anyway, and everyone with an Elo rating of 1150 or higher should be expected to have understand enough about the system to know that he has an upgrade-disadvantage.

Not premiums can´t host a duel, the only way is sending duel request 2nd turn. Why should be removed? I know your intention but it´s the only way for the no premium players.
