My shard is 14 months old and it wasn't that long ago you might see 8 or 9 different leaders in the top 10. Now its all Zaul or Rex or some kind of Chaze squad. They really killed of the diversity in the arena.

    Hmmm... I'm in a 13 month old arena shard, and there are six different leads in the top ten right now. And there are a few others if I scroll through the top 50. Maybe ... 10 different leads in total? Sure, there are more Rex and Maul than others. But it seems pretty diverse to me.

    Wedge, Wedge, Wedge, Rex,

    Seeing a pattern yet.

    In my top 10 we still have QGJ, Maul, Rex, and also a Boba lead with Chaze an R2.

    So no its not bothering me in the slightest.

    I think it's a little more diverse than it's been in quite some time. Even Wedge is seeming some light these days.

    You know, Metas come and go but Droids and Wiggs always remain.

    Droids have kind of fallen off. Can't really contend against Chaze. Wiggs is still around, but they haven't been here for all that long if you really think about it.

    As soon as one character is seen as amazing and OP gamers instantly go to farm them and create literally the exact same team! (A few variations of course). Then once a new meta team pops up most people rush to deploy that squad....honestly it won't stop anytime soon. That's why I'm not competitive in the arena.

    My top 50 has diversified greatly in the last few months. Back in Jan/February it was something like 44/50 were either wedge or Lando leads. Now there's a healthy mix. November '16 shard

    The problem is not the leadership, the problem is that Baze and Chirrut are in ALL line up! Rex? Chaze in there. GK? Chaze in there. DN or even Maul? Chaze aligned.

    Seriously

    AI Chaze isn't all that bad to overcome. They are very predictable and easy to manage.

    My arena leaderboard has 9 different leaders in the top 50 and 4 different leaders in the top 10. My leaderboard was made in early November 2015. Rex, wedge, maul, qgj, opress (was surprised by this one), GK, Vader, DN, and Jyn make up the top 50. Most are either maul, rex or qgj lead.

    Remember when DM was uber for about 30 minutes, then worthless for a long time? Everything old is new again. Funny that.

    My shard consists of mainly daka leads with the new defense buff, a couple nutes, and some lobots.

    Dooku's animation is what makes him most annoying.

    The game was most diverse in the zader meta. The arena was truly varied and actually fun. Then cg was like ' hey how can we completely mess up this good thing we got here'?

    Man I'm happy the game is soooo much better than that now.

    You can run so many different varieties of teams and still do well...

    Actually arena is not depressing at all...

    It's kind of fun trying new things to see how they fare...

    At least they might have a chance now...

    and possibly you could become the messiah of some new meta!!!

    i see in top 20, rex, maul, vader, wedge, GK, QGJ.... my god this is as diverse as it's ever been....

    i don't miss all Maul and I don't miss all Wedge/Lando, or how about all Dooku/Old Ben

    been playing since the game came out, and honestly if the current state of the arena depresses you, I'm not sure it'll ever get better....
