Comment:

 I suggest familiarizing yourself with how TLS negotiates CipherSuites, and
 the purpose of the `Finished` message
 (https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc5246#section-7.4.9), and if this issue
 personally affects you, to complain to EA about it to get them to change
 their server configuration.
