I don't think advanced players have quite the advantage you guys seem to be discussing. Perhaps against beginners, yes, but not against intermediates.

I think banning diplomacy for any advanced players is a fairly good handicap. Say you had 8 intermediates and 2 advanced players in such a situation. Of course the advanced players will see each other as the main threat, but that doesn't mean they'll have an easy time as several alliances will likely form amongst the intermediates. I doubt you'll find many advanced players that think they could take 2 intermediates on in an 1v2 duel.

Obviously a 2430 kill is too early and quick for an ally to really help much, so you could *also* apply a race design style limitation - for example you could limit them to 1/2500 pop efficiency.
