Don't worry, Pingu, once the live arenas are set up, you won't hear from me on the forum anymore. I'll be playing in the arenas, maybe having fun with wins and losses.

More of the same feedback for us to provide.  😃

Meatball sandwich for lunch sounds like the plan here.

what's old is new again, or something

Solid plan.

Or, what has been broken all along is still broken, but we probbably shouldn't expect much....

Plarium has actually proven themselves totally incapable of fixing any Arena Mode, and all 3 are susceptible to extreme Farming by Late/End Gamers and 2 of the 3 cause extreme frustration for Early/Mid Gamers.  

I remember when they introduced G5 and tried to adress the underlying issues of Classic Arena by giving G5 a progressively competitive matching algorithm.  Classic Arena became more challenging for a short while, and I thought it was awesome.....until that algorithm made it impossible for anyoen to get into Platinum, which then broke G5......Plarium's answer: get rid of the competitve macthing and send us back to farming....

I won't even bother to spend time talking about how effed up 3v3 is in this thread.... 

IMO, Live Arena functions better than either of the other Arena Modes, but that is from someone who has been engaged with LA from the start and is over 18K points.  However, I can only imagine how frustrating it is for lower level players. 

@MooredRat 

My second loss to a Bot Team in however long we have been playing LA.  This team doesn't even look like one of those Moored Rat Murder Bots, but the Arbiter was faster than me and I got speed-nuked. Who'd expect a Bot Team to have over 400 speed?

That's the thing, bot teams are just cloned player accounts. Maybe it;s a clone of a mid-game f2p player, and maybe it's a kraken from MAD or SP

(okay, in this case they aren't all +4 mythics with 6* blessings, so probably not MAD or SP)

I still don't think I've lost to a bot yet, or seen a RatBot. Usually they are terrible clones. My day will come soon as I'm gonna get bots much more often this season. 

PS.  I still think live season matchmaking is 100% fair and the setup at least mitigates the disadvantage inherent for newer accounts. 

Newish f2p are forever fukked tbh, but a new light spender will be just fine. Any new player should absolutely buy predator. Any gem only buyer should make an exception, and id say any f2p that plans on playing this game for any extended duration should do the same. 

Hell, I should probably get predator... 

predator is just busted - also probably a bad sign of things to come for the game with the evade mechanic being so toxic.

I have never bought one of these Toon Passes, but I have actually been considering buying Predator the past few days.  I ban him over mosts Mythicals in Live.

I bet at least a couple of the new Argonite champs have an 'ignore evade' skill. Probably a mythic and a void lego

As long as its toasted im in. 

Good.  Get botted in the face. 

I should as well but I really don't wanna drop the $40.  

Before it was just annoying, now its annoying and deadly.  Cant wait for Evade buff and / or relics to pop up. 

Its so obnoxious.  It also feels like a way higher % than its supposed to be. 

Should be getting info on these new champs fairly soon I hope.
