I finished my draft for arena and went into my first match only to find that my opponent’s stats were about 5 times better than mine. If all our troops are level 15, how can that be? Clearly they are getting bonuses somewhere but I don’t know where.

Sounds like Warlord 3 difficulty. I know everyone wanna…TURN UP. But in this case it’s better to TURN DOWN. To normal or at least hard.
