Arenas

DMH525

I always thought arena defenders were randomized but it feels like every matchup now has at least a serpent, enchantress, bullseye, maestro, etc. Yesterday I got a matchup of enchantress, maestro, and serpent. Last week I got a matchup of 3 R4 defenders. I don’t expect anything to change, I was just curious if others are experiencing the same thing.

Arena opponents are made up of teams that a small pool of other players used to play the game mode. It is not one small pool for everyone, but everyone is in a different, random small pool.
Especially when a new rank is out, you're likely to see some repeat champions because most players rank the same champions early on. Nature of the beast really. As rank 4 becomes more common, those teams (specifically the combination of teams of only annoying champs) will become less common.

Yeah the majority of the R4s I face in arena are the meta defenders. Just glad that arena health pools are 1:1 with ours with no inflation or nodes.

IMO, this is what devalued arena express in my eyes. It may take a few more screen loads, but I am able to work around obvious headache matches in most instances. Sure there are some hidden you can’t see in the selection, but in arena express mode you simply get zero chance to avoid it.

Until this gets worked out in arena express mode, I don’t think I am ever going to be enticed by sigil again.

It’s soooo funny though…isn’t it. Kabam has been saying for years that they make content so people don’t use the same champs over and over and over. Every month or year is the same. War maps- bullseye/enchantress/mutant red robot guy. ALL over the map.

BG’s- same champs 😂.

I use my 6R5s in the basic and from matches 5-15 range, be careful. R4 Photon, Serpent and Onslaught trio was running rampant, doesn't take much to screw up against them. Normally they wouldn't be paired together but they are 3 of the 4 no brainer R4s people went with.

I have faced full trios of summoner R3 & R4 7* in arenas
