Arena? What is the Arena?

I really, really dislike the Trident; it's a nifty weapon, and I like the idea that the Death Match champion goes to defend his title, but I'm not fond of losing both hand slots for the great honor of being automatically dragged back there.

Do not send a destroyer of worlds or any other multiple attack champion to the arena because if u win u lose all other weapon slots to just the trident.

However a shapshifter is a good choice, for example my dragon won it but when I changed shape the trident had gone. Interestingly another arena event was called a turn or 2 later...

So far in SP I have won 4/4 death matches, sent 2 pretenders, 1 prophet and a powerful mage. In SP with a bit of thought, I think u have a very, very good chance of beating any of the AI champions.

In MP I have no experience but I suspect its a very, very bad idea to send a powerful unit to the arena. The prize is simply not worth it, especially as u will probably lose or end up horror/cursed/diseased etc...
