Promote/demote players
The idea is simple: once a month, promote the three strongest players in a shard to a slightly tougher shard. At the same time, drop the bottom 100 players down a level. Discuss.

Horrible Idea! After months I have finally worked out a sort of truce with my shard where people usually only attack in the hour before their payout. We all take turns being in the top 3 and everyone gets good arena rewards. I wouldn't want to have to go through this every month to find a new equilibrium.
Maybe they could provide a mechanism for someone to pay arena coin and switch into a random shard that was generated around the same time as their original. The shard might be harder or it might be easier, but it would be different players.
Thinking about it more, if the rewards did scale then there could be something workable. I propose something slightly different though. Set up one single premier shard and once a month take the top three players from each shard (as determined by net crystal gain in the arena for the previous three weeks) and put them in the premier shard with better rewards and possibly something unique for the top 10 players. After 1 week in the premier shard, reward the top players and send them back to their previous shard and start over. Minimum rewards would have to be equivalent to what these players are getting now.
