honestly even when u get artiber it does not change to much, i think my artiber is about 295 speed and i barely ever get the first turn, so i just focus on the easy 1 man wins, even when ur hitting probably 320 + speed id imagine ur still going to be getting first turn less than 50% of the time.

My arb is 344 and I've never once used her in classic.  I used her in tag for a bit but it's been a long time.  She's on my FW team.

ps - I don't worry about hitting first.  I try to  be the one that gets the last hit.  That's the only hit that points on the scoreboard!

With the caveat that I think you'll be able to find plenty of easy farming as said above...

My best guess (and I cannot stress enough I'm hazarding a guess lol) is ~330 speed. Might even be lower on the bottom end of G5. 

330 seems like a fairly reasonable guess.  Quick math for 6* Speed boots, +20 ( double roll + medium glyph ) on each piece and Lore Steel is ~320 speed which I think is a fairly  build for low G5.

If you really want to you could put intimidating presence on one of your team or temporal chains. That can make an impact but you are just playing the odds. 

There are a lot of ways to counter a Go-first team but the easy solution I came up with was to put stoneskin on Ursula. It doesn't always work but it is more likely to work than hoping I have more speed. 

A good speed for Arbiter in G5 is 110. Because that's all the speed you'll need to win against level-1 champs.

Don't see much free wins in G5 so much anymore. It is still easy but those 1 man teams don't show up much at all. I leave a free win defense in most of the time, and get up in the morning and have to win a few games to get back into g5.

As to good speed for arbiter in classic arena 330 should do just fine.

I get 1 to 4 1 man almost every refresh, and usually a couple of super low n00bs as well.

Yes I see plenty of "noobs", but almost never one man teams. I actually skip most one mans because it's a udk in stoneskin and it's far faster to just farm regular teams.

I just skip arbiter teams and run ramantu kimi warlord nuker :)  Allows me to fight 1-man, n00bs, and any go 2nd without sheep

It depends on how close it is to the end of the reset. Right after a reset I will get regular teams of 1 player but towards the end of the ranking the teams get much harder because players don't want to drop down. 

which is kinda dumb.... if you take your max losses with 1-man defense before reset you can't get knocked down at reset

I still see them enough to get my tokens in if I refresh every 15 minutes it's not a problem.  But I don't.  The other 'free' wins are teams with arbiter.  Any tm into tm is dead.  Arb into lyssandra or Decan etc, dead.  Into kimi I have to look at the other champs they bring.  Or tm and a strong buffer. eg arb and duchess I take on depending on who else they bring.  I only do that so I don't half to refresh all day.

I see what you did there you cheeky bugger.  But a valid point, there are plenty of 1 man defenses to pick on.
