  So everytime I play arenas, I ALWAYS run into the same two summoners named "Kang Team" and "Thanos Team". I looked it up and I was surprised to find that all the summoners I fight in arena are actual summoners. I even looked some up and all of them showed up on the ID search. However, I cant find Kang and Thanos. Even worse, theyre not even in alliances. And the strangest thing I've noticed was this pattern where I always run into them in rounds 11 through 15.
  
  I think they're collecting my data and trying to steal my identity with some sort of invisible account in arena that automatically loops. How do I report this malicious activity?

  You send them your email and password, it’s the only way!

  I'm wondering if I'm being punked, but I'll assume not.
  
  Everyone gets the Kang and Thanos teams. It is part of the way the game builds streak. At some point the arena reaches a threshold where it tries to create certain kinds of teams that aren't just copies of summoners, having to do with details of how the arena moderates (or accelerates) difficulty. Eventually if you're using someone's infinite streak method of avoiding super hard match ups, you get past those teams and end up only facing player-based arena teams again.
  
  Basically, it is normal. Not hackers.

  I vote for yes, it is a joke post.
  44 other posts with 200+ Agrees, must know what he's doing in Arena by now.
  And if he did “look it up” I’m sure would have found plenty of references to Thanos/Kang Teams.
  Did you even notice that even though they are fully ranked up (per arena they are in), their PI Ratings are very low ? They don’t have any Masteries, as opposed to “Real” opponents.

  They’re just bots that kabam puts in if you’re doing well, mostly as a challenge
