So many players complain about this game mode. Then you have guys trying to tell them something like "no man, arena is a great game mode".

But the whole point is, all those who dont like it, they aren't wrong. There's nothing you can say to change their minds. If you don't like the color blue, who am i to tell you otherwise. HOWEVER, there ARE things tht could be done to change their minds. But that's on Plarium's end.

So I say "Arena sucks". Dont argue, i'm right... but you can be right too to think the opposite :P

Lol you are obviously new.. there are not even that many champions in this game and i have easily memorised all of them.. any average person should be able to.. i just happen to know their speeds, attack and crit points etc due to actually having a drug and booze free memory unlike most people it seems.. 

Yeah, I always also have absolute clairvoynace on the equipment of said champions and also know they are mastered and how many books they have. I even know their exact speed and can tailor my attack teams according to the stats of the defending team. 

Other than memorizing that, I occupy myself with trolling...

"Silver & Gold rewards aren't much better considering where an account needs to be to even get into and stay at that level since those levels are capped by number of players allowed per week."

Completely disagree here. There's a lot of value in the Refresh accessories, rarity and rank charms and that's before you get to the shards.

That said, I think Bazaar getting freshened up a bit and removing tier locks on rewards would be nice.

I couldn't agree more that Silver and Gold rewards are great and I ensure I get them at each refresh, Gold rock, leggo book, rank and rarity charms, purple rock, refresh accessories, even the energy and silver and such. I am playing Tag anyways cause it's fun, might as well buy the things. :)

It's a discussion forum. If people aren't allowed to disagree with an opinion that arena is terrible, then posts saying arena is terrible aren't gonna be allowed either.

And my mind has been changed on several things from posts here. Maybe I'm wrong for listening to others though. Weird that way I guess.

Hm, I might be about to eat my own words about enjoying arena - it occurs to me in the fragment event there'll be at least one arena event, and I'm not sure I'll get enough points just attacking single champ defences and weak cleaves in gold V to get the fragment. 

Am seriously considering an epic fall back to silver by making sure I lose as many fights as possible - but the first arena event could be Friday, so I may be better sticking where I am for now, just in case. 

Literally just got enough gold points to upgrade a Great Hall stat to Level 8 as well, to advance my Arbiter missions.

You should be fine. Just put in a one champ defense and use your daily tokens and you should be able to finish it no worries.

Tag and Hydra remain my main priorities in the game (hi Trips), Tag really being an enormous help during CvC. The top end of Tag/bazaar feeds my account to a pretty big degree these days.

not to mention I think "I don't like this thing" or "I don't want to do this content" often gets conflated with "this content is bad." A lot of the PvP stuff smacks of that.

I'm one of those who likes arena. :)

What appeals is the problem-solving element - trying to come up with counter-strategies that might work. I just evolved Miscreated Monster to 6* specifically to help make it easier to defeat cleave defeances in Gold V.

It's still hard to do too much at that level as a relatively new player, with a limited champion box and limited artifacts - but all the more reason to think strategically. :)

For those who don't like arena - are you in this game just for the hit of rewards, rather than the problem-solving element? Just curious. :)

I haven't lost that enjoyment after several years playing, finishing Plat and making it to Gold 4 tag. It is the big thing that is fun in Raid, in my opinion.

The other big thing is making efficient and full auto farming teams for all content from my individual roster, which is once again problem solving and team building. Tag Arena especially is porblem solving and team building every single fight. I switch out my offensive teams every match.

Well, like i said, i think one way, and another thinks the other way, and we're both right., because liking or not liking something is totally subjective. I was referring to some posts trying to dissect the person's disinterest for this game mode and putting them at fault for not liking it.

When you go on other discussion platforms with much higher traffic than this forum, you can see there are so many players who dislike it. There's gotta be a reason for this. That said, i get it, it's there, you either like it or you don't, nobody's forcing anyone to even play this game to begin with. And if you do, you accept there are parts of the game that you will like less than others.

If you either like it or you don't, and everybody is right either way, then no reason to discuss anything on any platform, regardless of traffic. :)
