Arena Shard Change
Let me put something out there that was an idea my guild leader had...
Can we say every month or so be changed to a new arena shard, randomly?
Would prevent shardmates from working together or blocking
Would enhance the experience and new feeling of the arena
Breaks up the dull daily grind
I have noted that some shards run different metas and often I base my team on the other top ten teams this would reward those with a deep roster.
Just a thought. Let me know what you think.

But CG does make money from crystals and that fact that 'teams' are colluding the max out the amount of free crystals they're getting WHILE ALSO discouraging other's from trying to break in to the top of the arena, increasing overall frustration, doesn't exactly sound like their style. Or a good freemium model. But what do I know.
I agree with these statements. The OP point about beginning rankings would be interesting how to work that and that may keep something like this from happening.
Maybe I am wrong but isnt that the point of a level cap is keeping the older players from getting so far ahead of the new players? But I do see the point.
Ranks 1-50 would scream out a poo storm.
That's not terribly hard - I'm sure CG has ranks over time in their database -- we have it on that other site that keeps track of your teams and lets you post it up!!!!!
So, keeping it semi simple, say you were in 200th place for 100 days, 100th for 50, 50th for 10, and 10th for 1 - you average it all out -- so that's 25501 places divided by 161 days - allow for A LOT of figures to fix any ties -- so your meta rank would be 158.39130434782608.
New Leaderboards would allow people a new chance to up their meta rank by getting to the top and staying their
These figures inherently have the age of account in them -- so each Leaderboard restart has the players sorted in an algorithm based on age of account and also meta rank. Adding in RNG within statistically closely ranked leaderboards/ages would further break up 'shard mates.'
Wow. Thanks for the input. That's what I was wondering.
It's painful to see my guildmates talk about how they all take turns getting first with thier shardmates, while my shard is an all out war-zone at all times.
Yes. This.
I am in with a good group of guys on my shard and actually like playing with them but it has become more of a guild then a competition.
