Latest Arena News!

From the Kabam forum:

1. The Arenas starting tomorrow will be a little different. We'll be re-running the Ant-Man 3-Star Arena alongside a 7 day Alliance Arena for a 4-Star Ant-Man. We Learned from the Avengers Arenas that players wanted to have more opportunity to win Champions featured in the movie, so we're making Ant-Man available one more time.

2. Thank you for all of your feedback on the Pym Canister system. Initial player feedback regarding this system was one of concern, but as time went on we saw more comments regarding the positive benefits of the Pym Canister system. We have seen some promising results so we're going to continue using them for the time being with the Alliance Arena requiring 3 Canisters, but we're removing the cost from the 3-Star Arena. An additional change will be that the Alliance Arena will be 3v3 instead of 5v5. This allows everyone to participate rather than only those who have reached level 25.

3. During the Alliance Arena you will find a 4-Star Basic Hero as an added Milestone.

4. We'll be re-running the Captain America WWII Arena on Monday since there has not yet been a chance to get a duplicate from Arenas.

5. We've done an analysis of our data on Alliance Events and we're going to increase the frequency. The 3 day Alliance Events will start running back to back and we're looking at possibly bringing the 7 day Alliance Events back as well. Because of the increase in the frequency of events the rewards individual events may decrease a bit.

6. A new Alliance Event type will run this week. Players will get points for winning fights using Champions of a specific class.

7. Alliance Quests are finally here. The first Alliance Quest will start for everyone on July 28th and will be active for 4 days. This first iteration will act as a placement round. Alliances will be placed into brackets based upon their ranking in the placement round. The top 25 finishers will start the next Alliance Quest in the top bracket competing for Tier 4 Catalysts. Each subsequent round of Alliance Quests will determine the bracketing for the following Alliance Quest. Place high in your bracket and you'll move up, but finish low and you could drop to a lower bracket instead. Stay tuned for more information on this feature.

*Due to complications, we've had to remove the Yellowjacket ambushes from the Arenas.
