IIRC there's only one winner per tier.

I support, even though my lion has finally been winning a lot. At the start of the event, he was in the upper-middle range of his tier and did not win a single round. Only levelling up, raising his stats towards the tier's upper limit, has gotten him to win.

I was like at the very top and made up to 5 wins a day.
As I am very fair I surely leveled up when I got the chance, now I'm at the very bottom of the tier and just keep loosing :D

Copypasta of my post in another "DEAR LORD PLEASE FIX THE ARENA" thread:

So here's a salty little bump for this thread, given the utter farce I just saw in this round just gone.

I had one of my kings entered, in the Expert Tier, with 10 tokens. Right up to about five minutes to the top of the hour, he was by himself in there, until someone with ~5500 stats dropped in, also with 10 tokens, so I chucked my other king in as well, with 8 tokens. They're both around ~4500 stats, and I figured there'd be a decent chance that one of them would manage to win for once, with those odds. Like, neither of them have won once yet. I was getting really hopeful.

Two minutes to the hour, someone with 11,000+ stats drops in one token.

Guess who's got two thumbs and didn't win a damn thing. ( b ._.)b

Needless to say, I support this suggestion.

Update from the Expert Tier:

The Arena strategy now is for me to come in fairly late in the hour, check who's already in there and then, if there's even one other person with ~1000+ stats greater than mine, to drop in just one Arena Token, because I know that the result is going to be the same whether I use just one token or ten, and I don't want to waste them on a round I can't win when I could better save them for those rare occasions where everyone is within reasonable spitting distance of each other and I've actually got a chance with either of my boys.

This is not, I assume, the way the Arena is supposed to be played.

Lost all rounds on both my lions except one win. 2000 stat spread between competitors is like having a gorilla throttle a goat. No contest, waste of time to even join in the arena for many of us.

Meanwhile those with top tier winning lions are reaping the benefits of rep and beetles. Its a horribly one sided and biased event.

I like this idea though, it gives more options and more chances for a win, evening out the competition a bit more.

Big support!
It's been a frustrating day,I've entered in almost every event through the day - not a single win!
My boy is nearly at 700 in stats,the range being I *think* between 500 to 900 in my tier...I don't expect to win often when I'm against lions with 200 additional stats,I know I'm going to do poorly,so what's the point? xD

ANYTHING that fixes the fact that there's no point in participating in arenas if you aren't lucky enough to be the closest to the top end of the stat group. It really is a waste of time, and it's only good for getting the five beetles every hour.

I honestly don't understand why they did the arenas this way.
A lion with 1590 stats has waaaaay more chances to win than a lion with 1700 stats. How is this supposed to be any fair?? What's the point of this?

Then, yes, there really should be another way to do it.
I like your idea, it would make it worth it to spend more tickets.

Or maybe every fight should be totally random and not take stats into consideration at all, considering how unfair the tiers are (as said, someone with more stats will lose every fight when someone with lesser stats but who's at the top of the tier will win them all...).

I agree wholeheartedly with this. I own a lion who currently has no wins, and I think it is a very unfair gap of 400 stats un my tier. Being near the middle range, it is nearly impossible to win against many other players with stats twice as high. I honestly think it has become a waste of tokens to just lose every single time and just get the 5 MB prize. Might as well just enter with one token just for the MB anyway. It is evidently very biased to the lions that luckily tend to have much higher stats, which leaves the players at the bottom of their tiers to waste tokens on nothing.

Big humongous support! Especially since having the same lions win over and over and over again discourage people from entering the arena, which means the tiers don't open.

I agree, we do not care about decors, we just want the game to actually be fair and fun :'D

It's not even a high-stats lions issue, it's a "be close to the tier limits" issue.

......it's not May yet though?

May is coming and they have plenty of time to fix this before it starts!

This has been an issue for YEARS.

They changed June, but have done NOTHING for May.

PLEASE fix this!!!

It is patently unfair that arena works the way it does. It's even more so with the inclusion of the quests that allow winners to pull even further ahead. Arena is now officially "pay-to-win" since the only way you can win it is by purposely pushing your king to exactly the cap and then keeping him there at all costs. Or! Worse! For anyone above 4k? i think is the top tier, there is simply no winning at all unless you somehow, mindbogglingly, manage to push your king from ~4k-8k to ... oh, hey, 33k+ just to compete with that one single person who can throw in one single token.

Again, that one token allows this person to complete a quest that gives the most amount of event currency. The rest of us are, (pardon my french, but seriously), fucked entirely.

I assume this was also not the way the entire May event is meant to be played.
