Completely wrong arena model

Once again Kabam walks the wrong way with Arena 6 *, walks to leave the game unviable for those who are not strong.
Announcing heroes 6 * long before and allowing those who were already strong to accumulate various fragments by opening various crystals 5* was a tremendous mistake.
A strategy that benefits 5% of players and literally harms 95%.
Is this the purpose of Kabam with the "news"? Because if it is, please make it clear, that I will leave the game.
Now the arena 6 * is limited to who has many heroes 5 * and 6 *.
That is, who is strong, will get stronger and stronger, segregation in the game will only increase.
It is wrong Kabam, the way is very wrong, the model adopted is very wrong, correct while it is time.

But some people don't have time when, Pro players can grind arenas in like half the time.
Sure, it sucks that I don't have a 6* champ, but it would have made Act 4 ridiculously boring.
Then no arena structure will help you. No matter what Kabam does, those with more time to play will get more stuff than those with less time to play. All they can do is soften the difference, and this game offers a ton of stuff for relatively little effort. Even now it is clear the newer 5* featured is pulling the top grinders away from the lower arenas, giving even more players a shot at those rewards which they could otherwise not get.
This game always allows lower players to get more stuff easier, at the same time they give the top players stuff to get that is much harder to get. That is *how* they help the lower players: by giving the top players something else to chase, drawing their effort away from the lower parts of the game that now become easier for other players to compete for.
I look at it differently here. Every arena event *is* meant for every level of player - we can all compete in them. That's the problem. So long as all of us are competing for the same thing, only the top players will ever get those things. By introducing the 5* featured arena, they've given something for the higher players to chase after that takes so much effort many of them can *only* significantly compete there if they want the best rewards. That pulls them away from the other events, that now lower players have a better shot at competing for.
If you want to help lower players, the most obvious way to do that in the competitive parts of the game is to draw the attention of the stronger players away from one part and towards another part that requires a significant amount of their time. That pulls them away from competing with the lower players directly. That's an enormous benefit to everyone: the top players get something better to compete for, and the lower players don't have to face as many strong players in the other events.
However. This is how the gamI HAS ALWAYS BEEN
First t1 alphas
Then t4c
Then t4cc (pre aq)
Then aq rewards driven by prestige
Then t4cc again
Then 5 stars
Then t2a
And now it is 6* and t5b.
And it’s not going away because
Then it will be t5cc
Then it will be t3a
Then it will be 7*
Etc
Etc
Etc
I didn't say you were. I said I looked at it differently to draw a similar conclusion but with the opposite premise.
He's not interested in being a Pro. He only wants handouts. To be more accurate: He wants the rewards that the other guy got without having to spend the same amount of effort or time to get them.
If only the world lived the MCOC way:
I want an "A" on my exam but I don't want to study hard for it. The teacher should grade on a curve so I can get an "A".
They want to live in a world where everything is graded on a curve.
It benefits everyone. Here's why
First off, this is a contest. It's encouraged that the best of the best grinders earn the top rewards.
But did your see the scores???
The over all cut offs were lower than expected. Which means less time grinding it out for the same rewards.
This is great news for everyone. Now we can focus on other content.
But remember this is a contest. It's not a handout. You need to earn it
The other aspect is this alleviates the other Arenas for those Grinding outside of this one. That progress frees up more Rewards for people to grow underneath the Top. Bottom line is it's a competition. Always has been. It takes work.
Its also an amazing stroke of luck that everything the players spending five figures getting is something everyone spending five bucks eventually gets an opportunity to get as well. Extremely lucky, for a game that caters to the elite, that everything they do to cater to the elite benefits everyone else as well.
It doesnt harm anyone, if you arent close to having a 6* or dont have one currently then the arena is not for you. now you can focus on the 4* featured and basic since most of the already strong players have moved to the 5* featured. Stop being entitled. No one should breastfeed you or give you free champions. work on your roster and become more challenging next time.
