How do I get past rounds 11-15 of featured 5* Arena?

I always run into Kang 6* teams with 30k PI and find this part of building the streak a pain in the butt. AI never wants to throw specials no matter how hard I try to bait them. Any tips/insights to get through these rounds easily and efficiently would be greatly. Thank you in advance!

    What level champs are you brining into those rounds? I usually can handle them with mostly 5* R3 champs or 4* maxed for those fights. Once past those, I can usually work with 5* R2s and 4* R4s as well.

    I start my way down from my 5*: 4/55 and 3/45

    If you run 3/30 all the way to 14 you shouldn’t see Kang/Thanos and will be facing 5/50s. At 15 you’ll face 4/55s but not Kang Thanos. After that I wouldn’t run less that’s 5/50s till after 20 and then obey the anti death match teams. They’ll use specials but not when you back up so don’t get yourself cornered trying traditional baiting techniques, Instead try baiting by blocking and ending combos short or stay aggressive and save your specials to finish the fight as the AI seems to be more likely to use a special when they are about to die.

    @CoatHang3r You get 5/50s in the Featured 5* arena up through fight 14?? I think you're talking about the featured 4* arena, where the max champs you face are 5*s. In the featured 5* arena, the OP is right that he'll be facing 6* champs in these fights.

    OP, as for approach, I work my way from the bottom up with my champs, running 5* 1/25s through the first 5 or 6 fights, then do a fight or two with 2/35s before getting to my 3/45s and working towards my strongest. That way I'm not using my strongest champs until I get closer to the fights you're talking about. I will put the caveat out that I have a very extensive 5* roster (85, with 47 of them R3 or higher) so that may not entirely work. But replace those 3/45s with 5/50 4*s and you should be in a similar boat.

    @10or_Strong I mean the 5* featured. Have a video to prove it.

    Cody, you can switch to an “unbalanced” lineup starting around Streak 8 or 9, and can do that al the way until you hit Streak 15 (2 higher heroes and 1 base level 4* 1/1 that will just be a single loss out of the 3 fights). For example 2x 5/50 and a 1/1, but sometimes easier to go 2x 3/30 and a 1/1 since opponents won’t necessarily be god-tier ones against your 3/30.
    Or closer to Streak 15 you can elect to pop in your max teams using mostly 5*r4 or strong 5/50 and face a no-mastery Thanos/Kang team.

    @CoatHang3r That's good to know. That makes the arena even easier; I always just use my 5* and 6* only die to the higher point totals. Still make it to infinite streak, but looks like with more challenging fights than necessary.
