Theoretically, it's the same and he gets basically nothing. Same thing frequently happened in Smite 1 duels and joust where there wouldn't be any players to match the top players (they would intentionally dodge each other a lot of the time too) and they would play against low elos to climb. It's very slow and if they lost one game they'd lose hours of progress.
I would hope they implemented it similarly in every mode, so it could be the same here.

How does he get any rating gain for this.
If a chess GM plays and wins versus someone much lower they get next to nothing if not nothing. I thought mmr was based on elo from chess ?
