@CG_NotReallyAJedi - If the datamined protection and damage change numbers I just saw are correct, you guys are in for a long day. :)

This is the truth.

I posted this elsewhere, but it's definitely worth posting here:

I would encourage you all to actually PLAY the changes instead of speculating off of data-mined information.
There is no doubt that many of these updates will change how you play. So we fully expect feedback that will result from the change of how you may or may not run your teams. THAT SAID, we recognize that players were unhappy with the previous speed meta, and this should introduce a lot more options to counter not only the previous speed meta, but create more direct counters for you to utilize.

Is 5 minutes going to be long enough to finish an arena match? It appears that MOST abilities got a damage decrease + protection (based on Datamined info which may or may not be correct), there are going to be some major turtle matches going on now.
