It really sucks that the LIVE ARENA mode is simply not fun and forces you to be restrained for a long time.

If you lose, there is no reward, and the recent update has made it easier to be matched with stronger opponents and the chance of losing is higher than before.

It's a shitty content that will only increase the amount of wasted and unenjoyable time.

I have been playing this game for several years now and every now and then I get fed up with the game. I used to pay for it in the beginning, but now I find it a ridiculous game to spend money on more often than not.

I did spend some at the beginning but don't now.  I would have paid fair market price for the game but that's about it.

In live Arena not only am I'm getting matched with 100's they are also now 200 Arena points higher.  Awesome.

I am amazed that I am still regularly running into level 100's in Silver I. I guess they just don't play live arena that much.

The time restriction and minimal incentive to do live arena is holding back play. I am up to silver 3, but haven't upgraded anything yet.  I'm just lagging 1 step behind the whales. Well maybe 2 or 3 steps. It's difficult, but matches are quick at least. 

Need to speed it up.

Make 8 1 hour windows, open it every 3 hours...

Have a random tournament with even B level rewards.

I like the rando tourney ideas I keep seeing pop up.

How do you think one of those should be built, Trips? How would it work?

It would be interesting to win something even if you lose. It's been a while since it started and still feels fairly unbalanced. Matches are still 0-100. WIth a higher tendency of meeting extreme high level players. 

At least, if i won something even with losing, it wouldnt feel such a waste of time to play live arena

Not trying to reinvent the wheel, just copy/paste current classic/tag arena tournaments with any level of rewards and people will participate. 

I'm guessing my "random" adj inferred I wanted restricted (faction/rarity...) type tournaments? I'm not against it, but I don't think that will actually encourage the more casual players with limited rosters.  

Throw a void shard at top of rewards on the right and play will increase, imo.  And with the easy mode progression added, people may actually keep playing.   

The matchmaking is not a real issue, it's only an issue because 3/4 of the base is ignoring live.  I made that pct up, but seems reasonable.

If you lose, make sure that the loser also gets about 25% to 30% of the number of crests obtained in the event of a win.

That alone will generate the value of just doing it.

今のところ、負けたときに得られるのは、時間を無駄にした悔しさと不快感だけです。

I do agree completely agree with the comment about paticipation trophy generation.

But when the match ups are often pretty much a guarentee loss and you really don't have a chance to win it is not a competition.  But then I supposed time isn't really worth much as people do have tons of it.  So then it doesn't matter and you shouldn't need to compensate people for it.  I was thinking I should stay at the office a bit longer more often.

Just hear me out, the one who loses gets the rewards, so all players will bring the worst garbage they have from roster xD

I don't think they have the ability to do the balance.  Game is far to randown in champion distribution and I don't think the system is smart enough.

I like the new content, But am finding it Hard to get better in Live arena with loss of points and bad matches. I want to get Quintus But at this Point might take me 1 million Years. LMAO

Concept is fine.

Execution is ..........

It's just a grind and I pretty much just run the same team over again so not interesting at the moment.  Have to get lucky and pull some more champs to build a different team.  But it really isn't designed around running different teams or builds.  So at the moment just another grind that you sort of need to do to increase your PvE to get better gear.

Thought it was crap during the test stages, it's crap now and it'll be crap  for the foreseeable. wonder what the uptake is because I played the same opponent 3 times in 10 battles yesturday.

I'm totally with you. It's harder and harder to find someone at my level with balanced teams. It is meant (as usual) to make the big whales  (old time players) bigger and the newcomers or normal players just who cares? If I loose with someone balanced in my level, it can be funny, and I can learn from the other players strategies, but when I'm against players lot stronger than me, it's frustrating. You are a big whale? play with the ones like you, and don't male the bully to us! shortminded (and not only mind)!👉👌👉👌 Pilarium just doesn't care.

I think majority has already or will eventually hit a brick wall, wont beat anyone, and maybe even give up at that point. Losing is totally ok for many but the straw that breaks the camels back will be people who wont choose their champs in 1 minute. I know its going all broken record with the 1 minute timer but we all know its way too long, in 1 minute both sides should have their champs chosen, i mean lets be realistic here, if you think 1 minute is short try holding your breath or planking.
