AI hit points/life percentage,baiting, and evading into the wall.

Is there coding in game that causes the AI to not bait say...when above 2 bars of power or 25% health? Something like that? I bet there are many factors but geezus'.
Something i've noticed after pushing hundreds of enemies above 2 bars and evading into the wall for at least 30 seconds each time. I am pretty sure this is mostly an arena thing and i actually get a good laugh every time i do it and dont lose the streak.
The AI needs to have very specific conditions to happen to use their specials,maybe depending on the streak? Classy lol...it makes the game look kinda broken and amateur and of course is frustrating. Or are we supposed to be evading into the wall forever to show how skilled we are and its all copacetic and working as intended??

u still can bait sp2 anytime in arena
Arena after you hit infinite streak have proper AI, and baiting is never a problem, barring certain power gain champs like Hypy.
youre joking right? i know about the streak i grind arenas all the time; but there's definitely been some tuning this past year, if you dont see it youre probably out of touch or so far ahead of the curve that it doesnt matter to you to finish fights quickly to attain higher arena scores with a non maxed out account and no suicides, do you like evading into the wall for seriously 30 seconds and for this to be normal? thats my main point here.
In arena fights 1-17, the aggression is way lower hence why they don’t launch specials often. Even when they get to 3 bars there are times they never launch it at all. If you are having trouble baiting specials, I suggest hitting them once or hitting into their block as I think this might increase their ‘chance to activate specials’ meter rather than you standing there and just dodging back.
Sorry, but he’s exactly right and you’re wrong. Arena has always worked this way until you hit a streak of 15 and you finish with the Kang/Thanos teams.
As to why specials are so hard to bait, I think that’s obvious. It’s to prevent you from building an infinite streak with the wrong (weak) champs.
If you can reliably bait specials, you can take down maxed out champs with unlevelled champs, all you need is skill and patience. If it’s all or nothing, however, then you need the correct high health/damage champ for the fight, otherwise you’re on course to lose your streak (the only other solution is a power drainer/locker).
For this reason, bringing under-levelled champs at certain points of building your streak will result in the “death squads” that will sit on their power until they annihilate you with a single SP3.
Nothing has changed, in the 5* featured arena it can particularly suck as you end up fighting maxed out 6*s with huge health pools and a reluctance to bait, but it’s always been this way.
