Haha man, I'm feeling the burn and am barely at 100 fights so far. Scheisse, it's gonna be a long week! :p

Oh yes, noticed this too, always have to check defense toons when switching from pc to the tablet or to the phone; and this is annoying, because I think that the defense configuration should remain the same, saved on the server, like the game progress does. Hope the devs will check this one and find a solution. Thx.
This would be great: Eddie vs. Eddie. We should have such an event, it would be fun... for a couple of fights.
Now, it seems that everyone is taking the Arena by storm, as I see only new names in my lists, names I didn't saw before, and I'm pretty low in the ranks, unlike the usual weeks before. Also, noticed some new weird & good defense configurations, which is good.
Will try to play as much as possible, but its damn hard for my eyesight after a couple of battles.
Well on my way, 330 down so far, figure if I get to 400 tomorrow night can just coast rest of the week doing my free 25 or so every day.
Hey Sparton,
I have not been able to post for a while.
Just to say this is a VERY COOL event! Totally in the right direction! Awesome. Hope you guys are impressed with the response!
An the other Eddie event too, well done.
Tell NF management I send my regards!
(by the way if anybody wonders, I "only" manage four Eddies in the other event, all dupes - 2x Pharaoh, Shaman, and Cyborg).
Cheers

I think is good to put some low level toons to defense.
Because for most players, we just want to reach 500 matchs.
And if we are easy to lose, that means we can match to low points opponents easily.
Of course if you want to reach high rank, this is not a good option to you.
But 500 is really time-consuming for most players.
Take me for example:

Do the attacks on your defense count toward the total points for the arena event or is it you only receive points to
attack 500 times to reach the top tier? A few people are asking on the Facebook pages
paste this to them:

Curious to know how you’re doing? You can check out your arena stats for that week by tapping the bar at the bottom of the main Arena screen (where your player name and rank are displayed). Look at the “Attack Wins” line in the “CURRENT” column. The third number in this line is the amount of attacks you’ve done for this event (for example, if you see “94% (16/17)”, you’ve done 17 battles for the event).
Hmmm Shaolin took the lead and is quite far ahead. Dunno if it's cause the arena hammer still hasn't struck or if he is that insanely fast.
Anyway, cheers man for adding my alt acct. You helped me a lot there :D
It seems people who was on top 25 last 2 weeks will get an Eternal Soul this Wednesday at store reset.
Just thought, does the games on defense count in this ?
Until yesterday I never lost against a Wrath team, but I met the sheer force Ringe's defense has. Wrath going first, CG stuns entire team, marks applied by ABB then next round CG uses marks and result is complete annihilation without even touching my screen. I was just staring at the result in complete amazement, it's so great to see such a beautifully composed defense out there. I was shedding tears of joy and lost with dignity. Hats off Ringe, your def is truly wonderful.
The way each character works with the other is perfect. I think he had Cyborg as Eddie, and next round even though my nomad was not stunned, Cyborg stole 3 power, preventing me from using Mirage with only 6 power left.

Noticed as I climb the ranks how valuable all the talismans that I missed out on are. Everyone shelled and countered up kicks my ass!
200 yesterday night, Sunday and Monday day off help a lot. :D
I target to play 50/60 by day to finish Saturday to complete the 500.
That quite a time investment as expected. :]
I got to where I wanted to be. I'm well over 300. Back to work today, so now I have to watch my rank take a nosedive. If the 1:1 thing holds, I'm due for 80-90 attacks. Have fun tearing my defense apart. I got it coming for how many times I hit some of you guys. Nothing personal though just trying to get the numbers.
You guys at the top are crazy. I have no idea how you can get and hold that many points. I've put in a lot of time since this event started and it blows my mind that the totals are that high. I'm almost blind from this shit.
it's only for arena battles or pve too?
No real losses for me yet on my attacks - just the one crash straight after the reset so all is going well - even my defence is doing better than normal due to lower rank guys going after me. It is a heck of a grind though! Good to see new teams to play against and none of the new toons have been a bother........yet! I have only faced a three new toons though, the Eddie, Clairvoyant and Wrath and all seem OK but they have not really had a chance to hit me hard yet. My time will come!
Dunno about anyone else but I think I am getting Repetitive Strain Injury!!
I think I might well have reached my ceiling in the rankings. I just can't seem to get beyond 2900 points. Each time I do manage to get over it I get attacked and lose or I pick fights I lose. Just haven't got the characters to mix things up enough to try and combat the teams I am coming up against. How I wish I had a GCR, AGS, SSD etc. as it seems lots of players at the top have these - I don't :(
Well I'm living the opposite: my def less than 10% for now... Over 200 defenses.
I'm feeling the miss of quite good toon in defense: AoF, Nomad, Sentinel harpy, CG... Hmm, Prisoner? :D
But as said by PerthEddie before, I think we always miss the right toon, no? XD
Yeah it is weird 0 my defence is the strongest it has been in several weeks with no changes at all other than I stuck in my SSD for a bit. - But it was high before that so not sure what it is other than the lower ranked guys are struggling with it - or crashes maybe? My defence is not the best but it seems to be doing better at the moment.
On offence it has been easier as I drop down overnight do first few batches of 10 battles are against weaker defences I think - but when I play it has been 100% victories so far on attack and that is me clearing lists and doing maybe five revenges on top players to get up the rank ladder a bit.
I still have a Prisoner on Attack and Defence - he will always have a place in my heart! In fact my offence team has not changes at all - I just stick with the same four and they seem to be able to do it against all teams so far this week - my time will come for sure, it always does!
Anyway, success to us all in the scrabble to get the attacks done - not sure I will reach 500 as not doing auto but it may come to that to get to the 375!
I'm having fun in this event and my attack team feels really good. With the exception of Holy Smoke Eddie, but my masked harpy freezes or stuns quite regularly, while my Sentinel Harpy steals fury pretty decently as well plus she hits hard. More often than not, if I go second I have to make due with just my toons, but they can stop a team pretty nicely. I'm wondering if I should put the Sentinel Harpy on defence by replacing masked with her.
I also finally reached duelist I thanks to this team and my defense.
I was able to get to 376 attacks last night and reached a peak of #5. I'm sure that's going to be my ceiling as my defense is pretty bad and I won't be able to play as much arena the rest of the week. I should be able to get to 500+ when it's done and hopefully I'll be able to stay in the top 50.
Coolest thing I've seen thus far in this event: A lvl 48, Bobo, with 3140 VP. Too awesome to see! He even had a well thought out defense team. I love seeing the guys with less resources at their disposal make it towards the top.
