Arena needs massive changes ASAP
First off it's the only competitive mode left with OD gone so making it pay to play is ridiculous but let's look past that for now. Just got a matchup on my first attempt that was me 2400 vs them 30...

Want to let you know this post will be forwarded over to the Community Manager and your feedback was fantastic. If you missed yesterday's stream he devoted a large part of the segment to arena and how the team is going to be reviewing it's current model. I am posting it here below if you're interesting in listening to it.
I completely understand your perspective on the fairness and how if you only get a couple attempts a day, only to lose, it's just not the best experience. This post already is one of the hotter ones in this forum since launch and can be a great resource for the team with suggestions. Keep them coming.
@EA_Blueberry I can say on behalf of the community, we thank you for taking the time to make this change. Again, I think arena has been one of the most popular if not the most popular game mode in madden mobile. We want to play! I would love to share some of my other thoughts. I’ll be sure to do so. And I personally thank you for taking the time to read through it.
@EA_Blueberry Instead of having overall rewards, just extend the Hall of Fame tier to reward something every 100 or 200 pts or so. Then people aren't trying to grind to get into a top 50 with thousands of players. If they grind they get additional hof reward bonuses.
Another option is to do the same thing as NBA 2K Mobile and group everyone in arena by overall power? That way you're only playing similar teams and those teams are able to earn rewards based on their overall power. They also keep the groups to 250 players max, not wide open.
BTW, maybe there shouldn't be a timed tiebreaker either. If you tie, you don't get the 5pt bonus but your ticket is still active. Nothing is more frustrating than scoring 24 pts and still losing and having to pay another ticket to continue.
