Idea For Improvement Of Monotonous Arena

For those of us in higher end alliances, Arena is a prerequisite for advancement in the game.

Unfortunately, and I speak on behalf of thousands of players here, I'm sure, the monotony of playing MCOC's arena is its big detractor. It isn't challenging, and the best term I can conjure up to describe it is mind-numbing.

It can be infinitely better than it is, but doesn't have to take away from the income it gets Kabam.

In an effort to make Kabam aware of the monotony we're put through out of necessity to enjoy and advance within their game, I've this proposal for Arenas to improve them all:

- Mastery Teams. Or a title of the likes.

My idea is to add tiers of incremental point rewards, Mastery Teams being the 3rd and highest tier. For clarification, I've created this image:

In this instance, the 3rd and final battle option is the Mastery Team. The mastery team is Mystic Dispersion.

The idea is that the 3 opponents in the Mastery Team's Mystic Dispersion lineup would all be Mystic Champs with Level 5 Mystic Dispersion, and at least a 5/50, 4 Star Champ at Maximum Signature Level.

Here's another image to display the concept of incremental point rewards as I mentioned before:

A 3x, 3.5x, and a 4x multiplier.

Why the idea is good for everyone, in my opinion:

Every incremental tier would come with the corresponding risk of losing your streak as the difficulty of each tier increases. High risk, high reward. That alone creates an Arena setup that'd bring some excitement, require skill, pit players against their nemesis with the benefit of that nemesis being as tough as possible. It's all-and-all a far more entertaining, interesting Arena.

It also brings an element of understanding to new players and/or players unfamiliar with the functions and use of Mastery setups.

Another option similar (or one that could be added to my concept) is synergy teams. A crit team, for example.

Looking forward to seeing what folks think.

Thanks.

    That is an awesome idea. But then again sooner or later newer players will keep asking to remove it cuz they accidentally tapped it and lost streak.

    like how some newer players were asking to remove the auto fight tab because how they accidentally press it middle of a fight.

    Hey, if we can't learn from our mistakes, how can we learn? This is better for MCOC's devout players. Presumably they've added 6 star champs to keep their long time players involved and avoid losing them, but this makes it easier for Kabam to keep their spenders and devotees from a different angle.

    I agree because arena is just repetitive. Does anyone actually lose a streak anymore?

    I do when I get so bored that I sleep in the middle of a fight

    One thing they should definitely do is make the hardest option harder. The last option should have same or higher PI than your current team and should have at least the same or higher rank/level of the highest champ in your team. I want challenging arena that awards more points.

    This is a great idea! Once you get to 100 streak you only get one easy option or something. Like the second and third fight both have some buff (stun immune and md for example)

    They should just get rid of the idea & possibility of a streak. There should be no infinite streak at all. The more matches you fight the harder it gets. That would put an end to the arena grinds and super high cut offs. You want "skill" to return to the game and arena gets boring and monotonous? Take away the streak thresholds and it becomes more skill based (can I beat this 35000 pts death squad?). You want to have lower cutoffs (no more 18mil point grinds just by spending units & time). Then get rid of the streak in basic & featured
    Get rid of it in the T4b too. No one who plays it gives up if they can't get. T4b. Either you get it in 27 matches or get it in 60, all the streak threshold there does is provide an annoyance and a time waste

    My problem with the arena is also the milestone rewards are incredibly boring. There has got to be something else we can add to them. Maybe uncollected shards for the uncollected or something?

    Yeah, something like that sounds pretty much perfect. I just added my mastery concept as an example.
