I have started trading and absolutely love it. In the 6 or so games ive traded, no one has successfully hunted and killed me (died to random reasons & my own bad). Trader is so leet. I think trader could be made a lot more fun to play.

Fact is, trader gets a lot more xp whether in HB or normal mode. I think i was fairly pro at trading on my very first go ever today and by my third go i was quite 1337. None of my friends or best players on either side could come close to my level. Ok so, what effect does having a leet level mean in the game? It means all skills are higher and since that reduces the cd of blink and ww, it makes trader more leet. Its hard to tell if that is game breaking because i havent been truly hunted as i would in a more organised game.
One particular game i lost where we had 2 traders and 2/3 noob teammates who lost all cps, i managed to repeatedly get fossil, get chased by at least 2 tanks and make the trade and get home without dying. We lost, but my level was MUCH higher but ultimately i was useless.
Case in point: maybe people havent hunted the trader enough? Or a skilled trader just pwns. And with pwnning they get higher levels? More battlefield testing needed... (get 2 clan teams, one side with a skilled trader, test 5 times)
Idea: Some kind of 'trader hunting' system? Could be somewhat complex/unique if the problem is big or something small like extra bounty for each additional trader kill. Kill trader 3 times + 100g, 5 times +200g. This could make hunting traders more inportant, AND giving some kind of reward for effort.
