Honest discussion about arenas….

So I saw today someone in my alliance missed with 184 MILLION and came in 140th place.
Arenas are officially broken. There are a multitude of reasons why they are broken - mercs running the account 24 hours, arena bots, and a cutoff of 100 (for a game thousands and thousands of people play).
Clearly mercs are never going away. Arena bots seemingly can’t be detected.
That leaves the 3rd option - Expand the damn cutoffs. Top 100 is completely outdated and it should be more like top 500 at this point in the game.
You are killing an entire game mode because no one feels they can achieve that reward without cheating in the game.
This can’t be what Kabam wants it’s game devolving into when bots and mercs rule an entire game mode.

Come on...
184 million?? Who told your mate to stop at 184 million??
If he really desired, he should have gone over and beyond.
Stop saying Mercs or Bots when you don't have any proof!
Arena is broken but the fix must be that way so kabam dont destroy cavs crystal, because if its top 500 nobody will take cavs and will go for arena.
That can be fixed with two ways:
1. Make arena grind for champ strictly without vpn and no the ability to change country through grinding: i dont believe someone can score 200mils while also travelling, 200 mills needs no sleep three days.
2. Make better the cavs crystals drop rates: if guys that pay have a fair chance for a 6* at around 250-300 dollars then why pay for arena (refreshes etc, etc). That will leave more space to free to play players to have an opportunity for grind. Now 50 cavs (that cost 500$) dont even guaranteed the 5* champ, so its better for a player that whalling to refresh that money so the champ is kind of guaranteed.
People want to get new champs and they have 2 ways:
1. Buy featured cavs or
2. Play arenas.
Many people want same featured champs and so they play arenas. Now it depends on who wants it most?
My point is if you are not getting it, then be ok that someone else worked harder than you..
Instead of pointing to mercs or bots or whatever...
Arenas are open for all.
The bots are bad news, certainly, but there's absolutely no evidence that players are giving up on shooting for top 100. In fact the more people complain about score escalation, the more they prove beyond any shadow of a doubt that there are still far more players willing to shoot for top 100 than there are spots in the top 100.
The bots alone cannot escalate scores, because they don't take up all the spots. Regular human players are themselves pushing harder and higher for high value champs. If people were giving up on the arena because no one thought they could get top 100 without cheating, then scores would drop, not rise, and the leaderboard would be full of bots. Not full of bots like there's too many, but literally all 100 spots would be bots. As long as humans are on the leaderboard, it proves humans are willing to push that hard.
However, in spite of all the complaining to the contrary, the actual arena grinders continue to grind. They complain, they point out the flaws and problems, they try to highlight the cheating that does go on, but they continue to grind nonetheless. If there was a flee from the arenas, I still track scoring, and I would know.
They completely messed it up imo.
I suspect they also spend units to get that rank?
They play/auto play the arenas constantly and spend real money to get there?
Either if those reasons probably benefits the sellers of the said units, I suppose that's why it's in the game.
So in a way what I meant to say that the idea should be implemented the same in mcoc arena, but something different that kabam can work with.
