    I'm sure you can, but you may have to sandbag some fights that used to work with 4/40s or 5/50s. More people have 5* 5/65s now so it has changed somewhat.

    Up to, and including, the match that says Streak=14 beforehand, it is very easy to sandbag (although I prefer the term “Unbalanced”) those last 6-7 matches by using the 3rd hero as a very lowest level hero (and in T4Alpha and T4Basic Arena is really easy, since it can be a 1* Hero). The greater the difference in rating between your 2 winnable heroes and the toss-away hero, the better chance that the opponents will be closer in strength for those 2 fights you’ll try to win.

    Once at Streak=15, (and for several matches) I’m not sure if full 4* 4/40 teams are sufficient (they will be after around Streak 20 or something). May need to include some 5/50 to meet an overall Rating requirement for some of those post-15 matches.
    So you can try continuing sandbagging beyond 15 for a while, but 4*s of 4/40 + 4/40 + 3/30 is not really sandbagging. Use 4* 4/40 + 4* 4/40 + 1* 1/1 (or a low 2* even). Not sure if that indeed still works post-15, since once I hit 15 I’ve got stronger heroes to start using then.

    I'm catching my a** atm. What I'm using is a 4 star 4/40 and two max 3 stars both being power lock/steel. It's damn difficult but I'm winning two and losing one. I'm trying my luck. I was sand baging with a team of one 2 star and two max 3 stars from about 11 - 15

    IM not sure if I should refresh the team over and over and use it or go lower for eg 4* 4/4O + 3* max and a 2 star? or as U said 4/40 + 4/40 and a 2 star

    After reading your post, I tried it for the first time playing this arena. :)
    I crossed the infinite streak, using the 4☆ basic arena method.

    From round 6 to round 12, I used 2x 4☆ 3/30 + 1x 1☆.
    Rd 13 to 15, 2x 4☆ 5/50 + 1x 1☆.
    Rd 16 onwards, just maintain 3x 4☆ 4/40.

    Hope this helps.

    You stop fighting Kang/Thanos after 14. You can still get death matches if your PI is low anytime but especially until about 20 or so. The AI and the matches should be pretty consistent after that if you don't go too low.

    I just keep playing and if I blow the streak its not a big deal. Use 3* to get back to 3x and start again.
