On my server right now, the top arena team (Styx - Team Instinct) is showing five 7*, Level 1 heroes. Total team power under 1,500. How would that work? I always assumed that a player's last winning lineup was displayed.

From rank 1 you can battle rank 2, 3 or 4 with any squad and maintain your position.

you can defend #1 by losing/ drawing a fight. He probably did this with that squad

Huh. Wonder why s/he would do that. Seems like a sitting duck.

he was probably handing off 1st to the next person for their payout

#1 with Level 1s? | EA Forums

I see this happen in my shard occasionally. I'm sure if you check back after a few mins, the team will be back to normal

Possible but seems overly generous. It's a PvP tactic that quite frankly I wouldn't necessarily would want other ppl to know about.

In a lot of the different shards it is more of a community up at the top more than a pvp slaughter fest. A lot of guilds were made of just the tops of their shards. It is a very common thing to do

Ha, just like that -- Mr Zer0 (Team Instinct) takes over first place.

Hello,
i dont know if you notice that if i dont change my team it doesnt move at all more or less for 18+ hours a day
i make a team of lvl 1s so that others can take first with ease.
hope that clears it up.

Not really :-D If you get first place, why give it away? And if you take it back, why give it away in the first place?
