Can we add another dummy button that pops up after you retreat from an Arena battle?

As in: "Are you sure you want to retreat from this ARENA battle?"

    LOL!

    I think I have done that once. Let me guess, you lost one and thought it was GW? You probably would have still won the match too, huh?

    Yep! Could have won easily but lost a toon and hit retreat thinking it was GW. 1 second later...WAIT! Can I take that back?! DOH!

    My gut says you'll still click yes before you realise that word is indeed "ARENA".

    They shouldn't even allow a retreat for arena IMO. Finish the match!

    BOOONNNEEESTOOOORRMM! Oh wait, wrong game. Sorry.
  • Yep I've done that too. I was going to win but lost someone and apparently thought I was in GW so I retreated. Took about 2 seconds before I realized what I had done. I actually yelled Noooooo! Out loud. Not my proudest moment.
    Glad I'm not the only one. I thought the same thing - why did they even give me that option?! Save me from myself, developers! ;)

    My gut says it agrees with your gut!
  • Yep. Did this the other day too!
  • I think this mistake happened to me once too :s
  • I did that just yesterday. Wanted to hit myself for the stupidity.

    I even hit the little back arrow hoping it would magically change it's function just because I wanted it to. Well misery loves company - lol

    This. Why would you ever retreat? It's dumb that the game even allows it.

  • I have retreated in Arena when I had limited time in the last hour before payout, realized that I couldn't possibly win the battle, and wanted to reset the timer to squeeze in another battle.
  • Pretty sure the starts of the fights are spaced 10 minutes apart regardless?

    Did this the other way round today. Was waiting for my arena timer to reset about 20 mins before payout, so decided to do a GW battle. Totally forgot it wasn't arena so I didn't worry at all about cooldowns and let 2 toons die. Fortunately I had an easy GW today, but it still seemed silly to let Lumi die before half way through.

    The best is to have an awesome GW squad that never makes you get used to use the retreat button in GW.
    This way you dont get use to press this button and it should not happen again in arena too
  • I've done this several times. You're not alone.
  • Been there, done that!!
