Double welcome
Welcome to the game
Welcome to Arena Hell.
There are alot of issues with the Arena IMO
You will run across some really silly teams because Plarium does not beleive in house cleaning, so players that long ago quit the game and were in high teirs when they quit are still in the Arena and keep falling teirs and end up in the beginer ranks.
The lower ranks have really aweful match making which fustrated the blank out of me and I am sure it does others.
My advice is either do a ton a research on Arena and see what you can do.
Or best advice ignore Arena til you have 4 60s, I know that is a long way off but otherwise it can really be super fustrating
4 60's is a bit much. I think people forget what it was like coming up. It can be frustrating but hopefully 2-3 easy or doable fights in a batch before you need to refresh.
just wait until youre midling and get beat by people 25-50% less power. Other more important things to build for before a dedicated arena team. Use general purpose, clan boss, dragon, campaign farmer for now and get the points you can in arena.
Not sure if it takes your total power into account so if youre spread thin leveling different people you dont have a concentrated group of 4.
Depending how early you are most 99.99% of greens are food. 1 or 2 have niche uses. I carried some archer and the knight that can attack with someone else for a while.
Theres a few rares that are good or can fill a basic role but thats even pretty limited. Likely want to level your main hero even though the game says this choice is not important and can change later, that later is way far off.
Your main, apothacary, war maiden, and i think its spirithost are a meta rare (blue team). Otherwise youll want to focus on epics. Good to have 2-3 useable rares to use up books, and easier ascension path tho. May be some other blues not sure if coldheart or miscreated monster are rares i dont have them.
Even epics theres a bunch of seemingly useless ones so youll want to check here or at ayumilove to see if theyre any good before putting too much silver, energy and time into them.
Typical team comp meta is speed booster, debuffer, buffer, nuker. To speed tune means to have their speeds set so they go in the order you want, the speed booster goes first boosts everyones speed, then the buff or debuff both do their thing then the nuker nukes. Be nice to go first and in the order you want, mine is still a work in progress. Go 2nd is a meta idk specifics of other than defense and counter attack. And you can be creative. Unfortunately cost of gear switching and effort required to level doesnt allow too much experimentation.
Then theres gear and lots of other stuff. I dont see myself playing more than a few months but some have been at it for years. For gear im trying to not level anything less than 5* over lvl 12 but may need some 4* lvl 16 to farm better gear well. Probably a good rule not to though its costly on silver.
Other gear rule i hear a lot is stats over sets. Easy example is hp 15% boost set. If the stats arent what you want you could just as well have 1 piece with hp% as a stat at lvl 8 or 12 would be 20% hp by itself more than the set bonus. Get the main stat and eventually worry more anout sub stats then the set bonus is a nice bonus but not why you chose the gear. 4 piece sets like life steal are a bit different that they provide unique properties or abilities but you still need to be sure that stats make sense to that build either because who they are and what their skills require or because what you want out of them. Are they debuffer, nuker, support. Crit rate is important as is speed, always speed. Other thing they dont tell tou is hp and def characters damage is based on def or hp so have no need for atk. It is listed in skills what their attacks base off of.
The arena lately is like two groups on opposing escalators passing each other by. One is going up with new players getting stronger, and the other is full of those dropping like rocks due to vacancies. And there are those in midstream jumpimg from one side to the other.
Arena is tempting but is full of Goliaths.
THE GENERAL MANAGER HAS REASSURED US THAT ARENA IS WORKING AS INTENDED!
The issue is with you, not Arena!
You need to improve yourself!
What steps have you taken to ensure your own Arena success?
Lets talk about strategy!
Lets talk about harnessing all that negative energy you got and channelling it into a winning Arena Team!
Code Name for this Project will be the letter "V".
"V" stands for Victory!

That's the spirit J! What are your suggestions to improve their teams!?
I have cheated myself into Silver 4 with my defense team. Total team power:89k Winrate on defense 60% or greater.
Team: Miscreated Monster, Valkyrie, Scyl, Aox.
I have won on defnse against teams with 190k power...
I use the same team on offense, it's not great, but keeps me in silver 4. I am trying to get a good arena offense team together, but gear is lacking. Therefore I am muddling through with the current team.
Don't level too many champs to 60, jsut the ones you really want. The higher your player power the stronger your opponents in arena. Don't neglect gear farming.
I don't know what player power has to do with it. But I've seen this team in G4.
I am trying to test this theory that was said in previous post
"The higher your player power the stronger your opponents in arena."
So I want to know if they see me in their list I want to know their player power. And I specifically want to know if they see me in low tiers, because I assume most of them have low player power.

Next time I see this comp I'll let you know their player power. Mine is around 6 million. But if I understant PP does not affect matching in G, though it seems it does in S.

My suggestion to help the OP improve his Arena team is for him to level up his heroes to level 60.
Heroes at lvl 60 perform so much better vs. heroes at lvl 50.
Its a bold & daring move, but one with in his reach.
If you really are a new player, as in completely new with no knowledge of either Raid or Gacha Games in general, you should not expect to go into any place in this game with non geared uncommons and expect to win anything. I think this one should be self explanatory.
However, in case you did take your first steps and play and progress in the game as close to as you are "supposed to", then let me tell you that Arena is known to be one of the most unbalanced areas in the game currently.
For example, you would think that in a properly structured game the lowest Tier of a content is balanced to offer challenges mainly adjusted to people who just started the game or are taking their first steps right? well, in Raid, you can actually meet in the lowest Rank of Arena, Teams from the HIGHEST RANKS which obviously will be IMPOSSIBLE for you to beat no matter how "gitgud" you are.
I tried many times explaining why and how this makes no sense since this would be like Dragon Dungeon Lv.1 being as hard as Dragon Dungeon Lv. 25 but so far this has been nothing more then a drop in the Ocean!
Let me give you a rundown on the kind of Teams you can possibly face in the Arena Ranks:
Rank Bronze 1 - 4: more Super Easy Lv.1 single Champ Teams to some Insanely hard all Lego Godly Gear Teams
Rank Silver 1 - 4: less Super Easy Lv.1 single Champ Teams to more Insanely hard all Lego Godly Gear Teams
Rank Gold 1 - 4: occasional Easy single Champ Teams to mainly Insanely hard all Lego Godly Gear Teams
I will not consider Platinum since it is basically a whale only stage that will require you to spend a lot of money to get and stay there reliably.
In case you want to continue playing this game, you should understand that Arena has been lacking a constant balance for a long time now and it doesnt look like this is going to change any time soon. Just as a heads up! Also, in case you play the game as F2P or low spender, dont expect fast progress in Arena. You will not be able to avoid putting in a lot of time to level champs and gear them high enough to compete especially in later stages.
If all this does not discourage you, then go to YT where you can find a lot of good vids on how to build Teams for Arena and how to deal with different builds once you have done the required grind to get your champs to certain levels and equipment.
Dot Knight is wrong and doesn't understand how Arena works.
Arena is working perfectly.
The problem is not with Arena, but with players.
Players such as Dot Knight make conspiracy theories as to why they can't win.
If you are a beginner, The game will match you with other beginners of equal caliber as you.
The result is all the battles seem tough.

oh shoot, I would have gotten away with it if it wasnt for you!
Yep, you are right, Arena is working perfectly. When you start the game as a new player with a Starter Team like "Kael, Warmaiden, Apothecary, etc." then meeting a Team with "Arbiter, Valkyrie, Krisk, Madame Serris" is the way the game matches you "fairly"...this is very fair....did i mention this was fair? yeah, thats fair!.
I am just angry because I lose all the time. Yeah, better listen to Player J, he obviously knows what he is talking about, he big winning guy he understands new players very well.
Thanks Player J, you are a Treasure for Plariu....I mean beginner Players! keep up the good work!

You can't fool me Dot Knight.
I am Veteran Raid player.
I am not easily tricked by players that make up fictional lines up.
I have seen Beginners Arena Team's list.
I have seen the pictures.
