Anyone enjoy the arena? I have two tasks on my list for it so kept starting and retreating until I had a team that wasn’t completely mind numbingly boring. Then the computer team gets luck so outrageous it has to be fixed

I enjoyed arena until the advent of traits got into it. but according to Mr Strange, that is a bug, not a feature. I know i used to be able to put together a lovely team, and have no qualms about barging through all 8. but now it’s like so much torture it makes PvP look enticing. Also i have a difficult time getting to 6 wins, let alone 7 for that task:(
Indeed, I have the win 7 and the win 8 tasks active. Had a nice team, really didn’t expect to lose. Their traits definitely helped steam roll me!
Why do you hate pvp? I can’t imagine playing the game without it
I don’t think you’re evil really…

I dislike PvP because I leveled troops i loved rather than the Legendaries i didn’t have at the time. as soon as i got to a certain level, i think it might have been 150? i kept seeing gangs/teams i wasn’t qualified to fight. at least in Arena (at the time) everyone was on level playing field. Another poop thing about arena is fighting the same teams (primarily after you just lost to them. isn’t THAT special?!) So… now arena takes longer because i can’t continue to fight on, because i feel certain that same gang with the Chimera is gonna hit my team that lacks a Priestess again. Thanks for not thinking i’m really evil:) it’s a nickname i’ve had for quite awhile. I think maybe we should start a thread someday of where the origins of our gamer tags, or internet nicks came from.
ETA: i’ve done 99% of the challenges, and so it’s a fun time trying to get souls now to raise a good PVP team that i can base off of others in these forums.
But Arena just seems so slow and underpowered even if it is a level playing field!
I’ve been using the same team for pvp from around level 55-155. Change it to a second team when it’s boring. Both are boring now…
Not much of a story behind my name

I’m definitely playing this game “wrong” (ha), I can’t even recall the last time I did not get to 8 Wins. Maybe last year? Granted some runs were very close, and a battle. I won’t be able to continue with my current strategy after the 1.95 update anyhow. No need to have the Devs Nerf anything further 
Some Tips: this may not work for everyone but might help.
The Hero is near worthless most of the time and you can not cherry pick his weapon, he does very little damage put him in the back. Never pick a extra damage weapon to specific type ie Dragons
You need a big hitter OR way to buff Attack to the front line troop.
Burn is good
Poison is good,
When using Poison select the enemy’s rear troops so it has multiple turns to work.
Knight Correnette can win almost all by himself
So can Rock Worm
Keep thinking as your selecting the lineup, you need 2 troops with synergy if possible.
ALWAYS change the order of the lineup before the first battle.
If they give you a goblin choice take it. I have only had 2 popup recently and it was an amazingly quick run.
Unexpected cards are very strong at Level 10. Like Star Gazer to boost your front troop, Zombie in front, Golem,
NEVER EVER EVER buy the offered troops at the end.

Cheers, I think half the problem I have with Arena is its so boring I end up not trying. I will take your advice and give it a proper shot again shortly!
Had rockworm when I tried last and he continuously set the other team up for multiple extra turns. It was scandalous, got torn to shreds!
Here’s an interesting one. I have a junk red hero weapon (pigsticker), skeleton and Templar. For my final troop I can choose between giant spider, Knight coronet or goblin rocket
Seems like a decent group
I got this team and it work very well its very strong and very quick matches (less then a minute) only good for att cause ai is too dumb to use it
Herdmaster
Bone dragon
Skeleros
Giant spider

For pvp? I’ll check it out
Why not start a thread, naming the troops you do have leveled, I’m sure someone can throw together a decent team for you to use while working on a, “better” one

I will make a list of my troops and see what people can put together 
great idea, thanks!
ok, fantastic advice. I was actually following some of it, already. I like picking troops with burn and poison (and Chimera when it comes up is almost an instant pick for me.) I also like extra turn troops and one run, i had all 4 slots with extra turns: hero weapon (can’t recall the weapon,) satyr, (can’t recall the third,) and Goblin Rocket. that was an awesome run.
I also like Knight Coronet when he’s on my side, and is the first one i target when he’s on the enemy’s. same with Rockworm. I think my own rockworm is ascended to Legendary, and has one trait?
So… Synergy… this is where at least one card feeds another, right? troops that create colors that other troops use? the way Valk creates blues so that Star Gazer can add attack? And Acolyte creates brown for Rockworm? (and others?)
Thanks for the advice. Later I will put together my troops like @irishfury187 suggested, and see what the hive mind thinks is a good bunch for PvP.
Thanks for kicking me out guys
OK so I seriously miss the upgradeded requirements. Think we need a better way to communicate such things. My bad.
If he really didn’t know, I say let him back in like a new member… but its up to you Demo.
EDIT: One more thing for everyone… Gems & Keys!
I had no idea I have not been on the forums in months. And the last time I read the guild chat it was pointless.
Well that attitude did not help you at all, since the changes to the requirements were mentioned in both these forums and our guild chat. So yeah. That’s on you.
I’d be interested to know what gold reward the higher ranked players get for pvp invades. I am around level 160 and typically get 600 gold before bonuses, 1000-1200 when lucky.
I believe it is the same for all levels. I am currently level 60-70(forget exactly) and i get around the same. I usually end up skipping multiple people in pvp until i see the base gold at around 900+ gold, which ends out to a total of 2k+ atleast at the end.(From multipliers)
The amount of base gold you see for people in PVP is based on how much unclaimed kingdom gold they have, which is added to every hour. (Correct me if i am wrong)
So, for my understanding, if you run into somebody in PVP that has logged in an hour ago may only have a few hundred gold, but somebody that hasnt logged in within 3-4 days, will have much more, say 1000+ base gold. (This was alot lengthier than expected, sorry :P)
