    Tweak of streak to promote close fights in arena with ELO system

    I would propose a change to the current streak system, we would avoid close fights in arena as a loss resets us to zero.
    A good way would be that a loss just sets u back 1%, eg current streak bonus I have is 100%, I fight n lose, my streak bonus becomes 99% instead of going back to 10%.

    This is fair since every win only adds me 1% incremental, a loss should set me back the same %.

    I thinks 1% isnt enough.
    It should be 10% at least, or lost half you bonus %.
    10% is basic bonus, so.. 100% bonus would mean a lost of 45%.

      I agree--the way the streak bonus is currently set up, it only helps the top few players who never lose. I don't see much benefit--maybe a 2-3% reduction in the number of tix I use because I have to take chances--even before the new horrible ELO and now even more so--to make ANY kind of progress in the arenas.

        I agree on the idea, not the numbers...

        The ELO system is in total opposition with the streak system... one defeats the other and viceversa...

        I would suggest that we lost 10% bonus each time we lose instead all of it... this way i would play also the "not so sure to win" matches.

          Agreed, the new system does not encourage people to challenge each other AT ALL. In the old system, no one would dare losing a streak by challenging a 50/50 foe. That doesn't change one bit on the new version. Losing the whole streak is too much. Reduce the penalty and you'll see many players challenging each other...

          About refreshes: f you don't want people to refresh, only allow one refresh every 3 minutes. Simple! (and don't charge crazy amount hoping someone would push the button by mistake!) Now it only achieve one thing: it slows the whole arena down. People wait for refreshes if they can't beat someone.

            I agree that it would make sense to change the way streaks work. Once the ELO system works properly, what everyone will see is this:
            - a very low chance (maybe 10-20%) to beat the 'hard' deck
            - a 50/50 chance to beat the 'medium' deck
            - a very high chance (80-90%) to beat the 'easy' deck

            With such odds it's impossible to build a streak that is worth the name, unless you're only fighting decks of the 'easy' category.

            Imho, it should be changed to simply multiply might rewards by a fixed factor.
