How many people actually participated in the new arena?

Just received my rank rewards for the 6 star basic arena, I placed 5121 and got 11-30% rewards. This leads me to believe that around at least 50,000 people 'got in the pool'. I'm not sure how many people usually participate but 50,000 seems really low

    I got in the lowest bracket. Then again I have only 3 6*s and am still experiencing lots of crashing at random times in my game experience.

    How do you find your numerical rank instead of % rank?

    Bear in mind that only uncollected and above players were able to participate in the 6 star arenas.

    I'd wager more people participated than average (from the UC+ demographic, obvs) out of curiosity. A lot of them probably quit early, too.

    Dunno how the Title limitation might've affected average participation. It's a shame Kabam doesn't release information like scores, cutoffs, participation, etc.

    This is what I got. I didn’t collect my rewards from the stash, so I have no idea what my numerical placement was.

    I only tried it out of curiosity / litmus test.

    After seeing some of the numbers for the bigger prizes I’m going back into arena retirement (as I was before the change).

    I prefer to treat this game as a pastime, not an occupation, and as a Thronebreaker with 30 6*’s I’m neither interested in the 4* milestone, nor the vast swathes of no-man’s land between the last milestone and the next rank reward.

    But I do find it fascinating that people are willing to put in these extraordinary numbers. Absolutely fascinating.

    I started but stopped when I realised that I was never going to hit the milestones. I’ve had a nice weekend off :D

    I did 24m in Shang chi and 22m in falcon. Just wanted to see if the old 23m can still get 1-5%.

    So, I initially was not going to play at all except for some of the lower level milestones. But then I decided I should go all out 1 time to see what my roster can do without any revives, and then I could see how that compares to others in this new arena.

    I did a lot better than I thought, but there is no chance of me doing this again. It’s a life-killing slog to complete milestones, and the payoff isn’t there. Probably great for the top tier players with great rosters, though.

    I did 25.5m (#1627) and 22mil (#1544) so I should have the same double 1-5% rank rewards but I still have yet to have the Basic rank rewards get delivered and those last 1k shards push me over 10k for another... ugh :(

    A grip. I was one of the thousands.
