Constantly Refreshing for Max Jumps

And just in case anyone does read this, it was an hour spent hitting refresh. An hour! And it didn't come up once. I wish I could say that I blew by it by hitting refresh too fast, like I have done countless other times, but it never showed up.

When you talk about trying to save time by allowing people to hit sim all on challenges, this is much more time consuming and frustrating.

I completely agree with this. Why the difficult mechanic to choose opponents? I like both options that were given.

100% agreed. It's ridiculous.

Also, you cannot convince me that something HASN'T changed. I'm not a conspiracy theorist, but it ain't all RNGesus at the wheel now.

That's fine and understandable. Then the check should either automatically always include the highest range or systematically rotate through all possible options. The current system is mind-numbingly silly. Honestly wish they would have spent time on this rather than the "favorites" sorting.

That's a fair point Blizzisme, although to be honest 19 was popping much either and after a certain point it was my plan stubborn personality kicking in. And although it's a fair point, it doesn't get around the fact that it shouldn't be this difficult to get to the highest possible person to fight.

Moved to Feedback/Arena.

An easy fix would be adding a “Battle” button next to the names on the “Ranks” tab. The battle button would only show up if the user was within range. Or add an additional “Refresh” button, call it super refresh or something like that, that always displays the furthest possible jump.

Yeah, I get that it does a call, but it also knows what the highest number of spots one can move. Program in that the highest spot is always the far right.

I spent another 40 minutes after posting and still never saw it.

Thats not entirely correct , as when you enter Arena it's a fresh update, so implementing a slider isn't a problem, just keep the refresh button, for if you have been waiting so long that it's not up to date any more, the game have already built in, if you need to refresh because the data you have is obsolete
the only difference is actually on the client side, as memory can become a big issue, especially in the lower ranks where you have 50-a lot opponents you can attack.
And before some smart person, comes along saying "But why not just make it so only the top gets the slider" I need to say that it can be really tricky to implement, if the original coding isn't prepped for such a change, but I haven't seen their coding, so I'm just guessing
