Can we please shuffle the shards?

I have two GLs and have finally reached the point where I’m competitive in my arena; however, the group that runs the top of the arena is closed and actively targets anyone that reaches the top 20 to kick them out. It’s coordinated chain attacks. I don’t object to coordinated shard groups but when you’ve completely closed them and won’t allow anyone into even the top 20 this is getting ridiculous. Can we start shuffling the shards every few months to keep these exclusive clubs in check and make it so we don’t have the same people we are fighting every time.

    Can you post the TOS? I'm curious how/where it actually talks about "collusion."

  • And now how do you apply that to arena? For all you know, people might just be doing their 2 arena battles for dailies.

    I’m in a good shard that invites anyone who makes top 20 or so I guess technically we collude against CG but definitely not other players. They do specifically call out collusion in the TOS though.

    They did say "But yeah if you have no proof it isn't worth anything" though.
