This would be solved if Arena permitted selection of high rarity troops first.

It’s not even that hard to be done, starting arena UI could look eg. like this: Clicking on card would bring you card details and give you option to Select that card (what is marked with green border). Clicking Start! button without selecting 4 troops (1 from each section), would give you “You have to …

Congratulations! You are the one millionth customer with the exact same complaint about arena troop selection. There is no prize.
The expected wait time for resolution of this issue is: infinity plus 2 days.

Oh, don’t be pessimistic. Since everyone is complaining about it, their next rework will be to remove all choices and pick the team for you.
