1) The arena is broken because the game designers didn't have the foresight to know making barriers based off tiers is a bad idea. Other games don't do this for a reason. It is very obvious that players get better over time. This is why Bronze is now like Gold used to be. You are implementing the same problems in 3v3 arena by tiering the rewards. Stop this. It will be bad for everyone (Plarium's pocket included) in the long term. You don't even need foresight to understand this--it is happening in your classic arena right now. Again--this doesn't take amazing prediction powers, it just takes one look at what is currently happening. You are p*ssing away your marketing budget. You get a bunch of new players-->they enter the arena and see what the competition is-->they quit.
A) Please fix Bronze and Silver arena. I know it's "being worked on", but it needs to happen fast or all those new players will start to quit.
B) Change the tier requirements for Great hall. It was a cute idea to try to be different, it doesn't work. Players will always feel as if they are getting screwed by this system moving forward. Arena will always get more difficult over time. Not giving your new players any chance to catch up is bad for the long term health of the game.
C) Change the missions for arbiter to not require a progressively difficult moving target (arena). See above.
D) Don't repeat your mistakes in 3v3...Please don't double-down on bad design decisions. It won't work.
2) Balance patch? There are about 20 broken champions. There are lots of garbage legendaries. Bystophus, Candraphon, etc are worse than many epics. Meanwhile, Rotos, Siphi, etc. are broken. Please make some sort of attempt to balance the champions. A legendary champion should be slightly better than an Epic. Similar in abilities--but perhaps with slightly greater stats.
3) New Content? 3v3 wasn't new content. Are there any plans to release new content? We can't call 3v3 new content, and the bazaar isn't new content if it is repeating the same mistakes of regular arena. Please? New content? Any plans for this?
