Is this idea Meta Changing? Arena

Just had a random Friday thought on a way to bring more variety to arena.

This idea would:


  • Encourage players to bring a more balanced squad to the table

  • More variety in teams you face

  • Force the player to think about their defence more

  • Bring balance

  • Baiting


The idea? Well it's quite simple actually and would require minimum coding. When choosing an opponent in the arena you can only see THREE of their toons, (Leader and two others,) the other two are hidden from you and are only revealed when you go into battle, a little surprise for you!

Sure you can guess who they would be based on what leader they have selected etc but it would make people bring a more rounded team I feel. Players would also end up baiting, "Oooh look at my weak squad... please don't attack me!" Then their two hidden toons are Chaze...
  • Sorry OP but your suggestion wouldn't do anything, When the game was new you could only see the lead, and guess what, by the leader I could pretty much say what the rest of the team was, there's just to little variables to make your proposal do much about gameplay in arena
  • It won't change anything because the top players of each leaderboard have to decide when things change.
  • It won't because "baiting" players into losing battles on defense doesn't get you anything. It just makes people attack your team more often which means you'll lose more and drop more. Teams won't change, the top teams will always be the complete teams of the toons that are hardest to beat.
