What you learned from the 6/5/4* shard arena

Obviously- it sucked.

I learned that hitting red skull when blocking only hurts you when he has armor ups...I think.

THING can some how nullify unstoppable.

Remembers another- I found out that almost anyone can be killed with a unduped CGH special 2😂. Came across 1 champ that didn’t die with one of those. Don’t remember who it was though

Can’t remember the rest.

    thing gets that blue icon with the white symbol after his specials that lets him nullify unstoppable while it’s active

    I learned that you can heavy cancel into sp2 with CGR. I have the 2* but barely used him before this.

    that’s a key part of his rotation

    I usually heavied, then parried-sp2. It is so much better than what I did originally.

    I learned that BWCV is one of my new favorite champs in the game. Only have her as a 2*, and Sorcerer Supreme as a 4/55, and I can say that BWCV is much better

    BWCV is the better champion overall but Sorcerer Supreme isn't lagging that far behind. It's pretty close. SorcSup has the most reliable nullify in the game and her utility is very reliable. I just did my 6.2.6 run with her last week. I know it was nerfed but she's just too perfect for that fight.

    I'm still waiting to pull BWCV as I only have Sorc Supreme and Magik as my Mystics. But I pulled Doom a few days ago so I might not need her.

    Thread title is incorrect. It should be "Things I Should Have Learned by Reading Champion Descriptions"
  • DontsellthemDontsellthem Member Posts: 779 ★★★
    @Wubbie075

    It was more about using champs that you normally don’t use.

    I do agree with you though.

    I’ve never been one to read those descriptions😂. I rather use them till I decide they aren’t working for me.

    Well, you just can't memorize them at the get go. You'll learn them overtime. I've been playing this game a lot but there are still interactions that surprises me each time like you can bypass Mordo's Astral Evade by heavying at the right timing.

    I only read descriptions thoroughly if I'm preparing for a big fight.

    I learned to ignore arena completely and focus on life. Crazy right?

    You’re commenting on the forums of a mobile game. That focus of yours needs further tuning.
    Oh i didnt say i was good at it or i gave full focus. With the arena, it would have been 85%, without maybe 55% focus on game😬.


    I studied for finals all weekend as well.

    I learned that arena sucks and is a waste of time.

    I’m 100% sure I forgot several things, and lost several basic life skills.

    I learned to not have high expectations, so I can never be let down
  • DeaconDeacon Member Posts: 4,249 ★★★★★

    Joking. I learned that red skulls heavy places a heal block last a good amount of time. That’s about it.

    Confirmed that I am indeed NOT an arena grinder. It’s tedious, painful, uninteresting, and exhausting. I wish I was because the resources can accumulate over time.
  • DjinDjin Member Posts: 1,962 ★★★★★
    Kabam should learn something.... Next time they do 4mil 6* shard arena make it for 2*/3* champs.
  • Fluffy_pawsFluffy_paws Member Posts: 2,678 ★★★★★
    I learnt I'll go a long way for some 2* crystals.
    Done in the 4* and 5* arenas.
    Got a new 2* Elsa and 1* Colossus, if I could get a 1* Hawkeye my 1*s would be complete.
    Rest were dupes.
    I just want a 2* Hyperion.
  • KerneasKerneas Member Posts: 3,811 ★★★★★
    I didnt learn, I just remembered why I dont usually do arena. But the 5* Colossus was worth it ngl

    Also the AI is even worse than before, behold my story:

    Mordo (350 PI) vs. Red Cyclops (850 PI)
    Mordo chips him slowly away, until cyclops has 2 bars of power. When he hits the treshold, he is backed against a wall. Then mordo baits. He baits through whole arena but cyclops is reckless, ignoring mordo's tries and powergain, he keeps his precious power until Mordo is in the corner. Then mordo had to hit him, there was no other option. And cyclops hit sp3. Which he happily threw. Full yellow Mordo is now K.O.

    I learned why I gave up arena in the first place.
