Sunday Arena Problem and Proposal

Sunday Arena Proposal
Current Problem:
Given the current state of the game and where the the community is at, I think it’s time for an update to the current Sunday Crystal Cornucopia arenas. These arenas award no battle chips or gold in the milestones but rather award 2 star hero crystals and a small amount of premium hero shards. These rewards have minimal use to most newer players and are essentially useless to high level players besides helping us max out our 2 star heroes faster for the chance at an Immortal Iron Fist.

My Proposal:
Provide the community with a new rotating arena event for Sunday. My thought is that the rotating arenas would work similar to the 5 star shard arena that we had a little while ago (milestones only and limit them to certain champs).

The expectation would be that these arenas would run on a standard rotation or be randomly assigned on any given Sunday as that week’s Sunday arena. The goals of these arenas is to be modest in the expectations of rewards while still providing the players putting their time into grinding the arena with some rewards that are more beneficial than more 2 Star Champion Signature Ability Levels.
The Rotation – All run for only 24 hours

Keeping It Real:
Things I avoided in this to make the chances of something like this happening more realistic (Kabam still needs a way to milk the whales):

[*] Tier 2 Alpha Catalysts and Shards
[*] Tier 5 Basic Catalysts and Shards
[*] Fully Formed Tier 4 Basics and Tier 4 Class Catalysts
[*] Large Quantities of 5 Start Her o Crystal Shards
[*] 6 Star Hero Crystal Shards

Of course these rewards may not meet the expectations of all, although I feel they are a significant improvement to what we are getting now. I wanted to start the discussion off since in the time I’ve been playing MCOC (about 1.5 years now) and I’ve never found content to become so quickly meaningless to me as the current Sunday arena has become. So…. Thoughts anyone?
