    When they expanded the brackets for the 4* featured and basic, the cutoff dropped for a few arenas but then went right back up again. I don’t see anything being changed for this. People who put in the time to grind top 150 deserved it. No champ is worth that much of your life imo

    Top 400 cutoff for Dormammu in 4* featured arena was around 22 mil one round. 4* featured arena cutoff didn't approach that score until Void arena nearly a year later.

    @xNig Backing up my recent post. Here’s what I got from opening 1 million battlechips.

    Agree with @DNA3000 .

    I have an ally mate who is 100% free to play and used to grind for every 5* featured since the arenas were introduced.

    He says it’s quite simple. Grind 5* arena for champ, open BCs for units. Grind the next round of arena for BC, open BCs for units to spend on the next 5* arena where he will be going for the champ. He still net gains about 6-8k units a week.

    6-8K units a week from battlechips is improbable. I saved battlechips for a month to grind for 5* Korg in 1st round of featured arena. I was fortunate to get close to 2.5K units from opening 1,150,000 battlechips that I accumulated over 4 weeks. Your ally mate would have to grind 10-12+ hours of arena per day for 6-8K units per week from battlechips to be remotely feasible.

    The way I interpreted @xNig is that he was talking about grinding for a 5* featured champ once, then grinding the next iteration of that same week just for units and BC (which means not going for that featured twice) and then saving for the next featured, which only happens generally twice a month. Doing the featured twice in a month seems feasible for a large roster hardcore arena grinder. This requires something closer to 3k units per week which is certainly difficult but not impossible.

    But even once a month would be great for a free to play player, because not all featured champs are as valuable, and once a month is well within the range of the ~7k units that you can grind in the arena in a month with moderate grinding and strategic shooting for milestones.

    Wow!! If I didn't c it w my own eyes, I wouldn't have believed scores went that high. And here I was upset that my 5M could not even fetch me the 1000 5* shard tier, lol :)
    Thank u all, feel so much better. For now I'll just stick with 1M for ranking.

    Just curious, I have 2 6* heroes and 32 5* heroes. How does my roster sound?
    Thanks.

    You're not that far. 6.5 million would be a safe target at the moment for 1000 5* shards.

    Thanks.

    Without knowing your progress level or which champs we're talking about, it sounds like you have 2 6* champs and 32 5* champs.

    I think it may soon be time to put it more in line with the other Arenas. Perhaps Top 1-5%. Availabilities are rising, and the amount of Grinding is just as significant. Only the Points have increased because the Champs being used are higher. Of course, that's entirely up to them and what they want to set.

    Its about 12m (a milestone also) only rank 1500-2500 ish.
    To garantee u a top 1-10%
    I have seen someone who did 10.5m to just be placed 10-20%. So it alll depends how many peope go for.

    To get into the top 5%
    Maybe a 5* basic but not many people have time/roster to do 20m+

    This will also devalue 5* in general.

    i believe if they do this that arena will just be as brutal, cutoffs will increase and more people will cry about it being to high.
    Theres always people gonna be missing.

    Just like 4* featured, if 801 people go all out someone will miss

    Same thing with 5* featured is 151 people go all out to grind they will miss.

    So if they do a top 5%..and older featured champs like beast went for 25m

    Alot more people will go for champs.

    If 5.01% of people go for said champ..that .01% person will miss.

    Disagree. The value of 5*s is still the same. When the 5* Arena was invented, there was an intended rarity placed on the Featured. There's no reason why it couldn't be reevaluated after some time has passed. Top 1-5% is not a gross devalue. As it stands, the Champ goes to the same few who Rank 150 most times, with numbers significantly greater.


    You are speaking to someone who owns
    90 5*
    115+ 4*
    Already close to 4th r5 5*
    On my 7th 6* pull
    Plays in a tier1 alliance and made masters
    100% LoL
    2x legend
    Went for over 10x featured arenas
    1x 1st place Featured Grind
    Top 20 AQ map 6x5

    And you are not even uncollected

    I garantee you someone else values 5* alot more than me with a much smaller roster.

    My roster is big enough to bet me top 10% in 5* arena. If im not going for 5* grind thats
    4,000 5* and 400 6* shards per 2 arenas a a week ontop of all things i earn in game.

    People are made because they want to compete in an arena where alot of peolle spend units/refresh and have a big roster.

    I can do all that. But you can also grind as pocture anove grind to 1m bc’s and get units but your paying your time in the grind to accumalte those reaources

    The value of 5* is considerable lower for me yet i put in the time\resources in my roster to be able to go for these champs.

    I am able to pull 5* almost every 1-2 weeks.
    2 weeks of top 10% 5* featured grinds is

    8,000 5* shards and 800 6* shards of i mKe top 10% x4 grinds in 2 weeks.

    At this theres also sarengo who goes for these grinds 100% free and Brian Grant whonjs also 100% ftp

    Y’all must not do arena much.

    How many units do you have left over from an arena that your won the arena before? If what you are saying is true you would have approximately 6000 units left over for the next arena after you just spent that much on the arena before. For some that went for Omega Red it was 9000 units to get him and grinding 24/7. How is that “free to play”.

    Ask Brian Grant. He is 100% free to play, plays in a tier 1 alliance, has done pretty much all of the content, and occasionally grinds the featured when he decides it is a champ he wants badly enough.

    As I said before, you don't want free to play. You want free to be top dog in everything everywhere, and that's simply not a fair use of the term. Free to play means you can play for free, and you can. And if you're willing to put in the time, there is very little you can't do in-game. Maybe you can't be the top 150 finisher in every single featured arena every single time, but if you're calling the game pay to play just because you can't do that without spending, those words must mean something different where y'all are from.


    Dang u slayed him those words...
    A ftp cant really compete to someone who spends. Thats facts 100%

    Remmeber those 4th of july deals?
    Those was some of “the best” deals to buy and i get it..not everyone can afford it, but deals like 4th july deal really put some value if you ever wanted to spend

    t5b hardest resource to get
    You keep the units
    Get you 5* crystal
    Get t2a shards

    The bottom pic when they put 4,500 t5b only shafds for the same price...

    They just released an offer for same price
    9,000 t5b already doubling the amount.

    But yes ftp can never catch ul to someone spends.

    You can open those 300 unit fgmc and open...
    10,20,50+ Fgmc Crystals
    (5o fgmc is $500)

    And NOT get a 5*...!!!

    can easily refresh and save alot more money if u choose to grind,refresh to get a too score.

    Okay, so I register an opinion, and you pull Rank. Interesting.
    Your argument was that changing it somehow devalues 5*s in general and that's just not the case. What it will affect is the availability of the Featured. People who are capable of putting up enough Points for 1-5% definitely don't have a shortage of 5* availability. It sounds like your argument wants to keep it in the hands of those only able to Rank Top 150, and that doesn't have much to do with the value of a 5* at all.
