League Arena Update 

  • Due to the implementation of the League Arena test on certain servers, a bug occurred that prevented players from completing daily quests—even on servers where the feature hadn’t been introduced.
  • It appears that the development team responded to the issue over the weekend and continued working through the holidays.
  • – Balance adjustments are ongoing on servers where the League Arena test is active.

Official Messages

Fixed one-team defense exploit

  • Hello everyone! Here are some fresh updates about the League Arena, which is currently available on dedicated servers.
  • The developers have discovered a matchmaking exploit in the current state of the mode, where players place a single strong hero in their defense team to gain an advantage and climb the rankings. To address this, changes have been made to the matchmaking balance system in leagues from Bronze to Challenger. 
  • Previously, the matchmaking power calculation partially took into account the heroes from the selected defense team. Going forward, this will no longer be the case. The calculation will be based on other factors instead.
  • This change will be implemented in the coming days on servers where League Arena is active. 

Rating adjustments

Hello everyone, we’ve got some news! The League Arena mode has been available on dedicated servers for a week now, and the developers have been closely monitoring your feedback and the gameplay statistics.

Through this observation, they discovered that the current rating progression isn’t as effective or exciting as it was intended to be, failing to provide both fun and challenge. As a result, the following changes have been made to the rating points earned in the leagues:

  • Bronze: +20 for a successful attack / 0 for a defense loss
  • Silver: +25 for a successful attack / -5 for a defense loss
  • Gold: +30 for a successful attack / -10 for a defense loss
  • Challenger: +35 for a successful attack / -15 for a defense loss
  • Champion: +40 for a successful attack / -20 for a defense loss
  • Legend: +50 for a successful attack / -50 for a defense loss
  • No changes were made: 0 for a failed attack / 0 for a successful defense

Bug fixes

  • Recently, players on the dedicated servers where the League Arena is currently taking place encountered a bug that caused Tournament Of Power points not to be counted properly. A couple of hours ago, compensation was sent out to all players affected by this issue.
  • We apologize for the inconvenience caused.

Official Community Manager FAQ

Titles are tailored to the content.

1. League Arena Reward Balance Is Poor

  • Q. CMs Please forward to the devs: I have been experimenting with my with my well-developed account in the top 300 for 2 days. I have done 15 battles in the last 24 hours and with 15 successful attacks, earned 502 points. I used 150 ems for the 10 additional fights.

    I was attacked 46 times during this period. I lost 629 points in 21 defeats. I do not receive any points for my 25 successful defences.

    With the new changes, people will use stronger defences because it’s no longer worth using weak defences. The level 64 accounts with 14K single heroes in defence should disappear from the top 300. That the challenge increase is a good thing, but……

    With your latest changes, from now on, I would gain 750 points for the same number of successful attacks and lose 1050 points for attacks against me.  This means buying at least 20 additional battles a day to maintain the score or more to progress. This is definitely not worth it for the rewards and good f2p players have no chance of getting there at all. For f2p players and ambitious paying players who want to measure their performance, the new arena cannot replace the old one. Once you have been recognised as a victim, you can be attacked many times by the same player. So it’s still a competition to see who uses the most ems.

    The name Arena makes no sense at all and that’s the end of the experiment for me for the time being. Even whales start to calculate when the first fun of something new is over. From now on, there will only be the 5 free fights per day from me- if at all. Thank you
  • A. Thank you for staying engaged and sending detailed feedback about the League Arena. The developers are carefully reviewing it and considering options for fine-tuning the mode. Based on recent feedback, the point system for ranking has already been revised, which shows that we can expect further changes in the future to make this mode even better.

2. League Arena Introduction Caused Multiple Bugs

  • Q. Tonight you invented some quite annoying bugs which messed up everyone’s daily routines (5 hours after invention they are all reported to be working somehow; The “Go for it” Jumps were still not working. CMs please still read the 2nd part of this post).

    – season quest descriptions are not correct and dont update correctly.
    – weekly season quests to be done within 24h, refresh timer looks wrong (this is most probably not a bug: the season is just ending and we got an opportunity to do 1 more quest if we want. thanks).
    – adventure battles cant be raided / auto completed.

    Delivering quality in software business is no rocket science. There are international standards most even from the last millenial. You can do it if you want. “Buld quality in” is much cheaper than handling and fixing bugs.

    – Cant you have automated tests for these things or at least 1 person checking all newly deployed quests and functionality right after each deploy? (include a deploy test to your DoD “Definition of Done” for your Deployed-Milestone)
    – why are descriptions and texts and even news posts still so often wrong? (4-eye-reviews help a lot)
    – why are so many event descriptions missing at https://support-hwde.nexters.com/hc/en-us?
    – where is the description that tells people about how often per week they may change guilds without getting a lock out? (its almost half a year now)
    – you invent quite an amount of bugs every week, but we can only report only 1 bug per account and have to wait for it being completed before we can report the next one. this is so much sub-standard that i dont get how you manage to pass any quality audit.
    – and can we please finally have a release changelog?
  • A. Several of the problems you mentioned have been reported and are either already fixed or currently under investigation. Your points about quality control, changelogs, and clearer communication are fully acknowledged. We’ve passed this on to the developers, and on our end, the community management team has also taken it into account and drawn conclusions.

    I appreciate your patience and high standards. The best way we can improve is by listening to players like you who care enough to speak up. Thank you for bringing this to our attention, even when things aren’t going as smoothly as they should.

3. Guild Raid Cheaters Should Be Permanently Banned

  • Q. It looks like the cheaters’ attacks against the Asgard bosses have been nullified. We are very grateful for your efforts. By the way, have the accounts of those found to be cheaters been permanently banned? Cheaters should be punished severely and that is what we hope for.
  • A. Hey! We are glad you’ve noticed, we did not want to announce the change before we were sure that is actually working. And it is, indeed, seems to be working great, so at least for now the Asgard competition is fair and square. Identifying the players who have been using the vulnerability is a separate task entirely, and for now we needed to make sure that the loophole is closed and we can ensure fairer competition in the mode moving further.

4. Ninja Turtles Talents Need BLP Support

  • Q. FYI: After half a year of opening 3 dungeon manhole covers on 3 accounts every day and even opening them even 2 to 3 times for 50 and 100 ems and not getting a totem sphere it happend to me that i started hating the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles.

    This is equivalent to 1 account not getting a totem sphere from the dungeon for 3-4 years.
    Btw its even worse: nobody in our guild of 30 got not even 1.

    if you want to prevent this from happening to more players you might want to think of a Bad Luck Protection thing for the TMNT totem sphere draws.

    Cant we please at least get 1 sphere for sure after 2 years of opening 3 manhole covers every day? And after 1 year of opening 6 per day (and so on)?

    Or with just a probability and no protection i will stop spending anything there.
    Because it could easily take 5 years or 10 years of spending until i might get a totem sphere from the TMNT special ability. Which
    – made me spend more than what i would get. And so
    – spending completely irrational. And the
    – TMNT “Sewer Treasures” even look bad for your franchise partner.
  • A. I completely understand how frustrating it can be when the randomness of the system doesn’t seem to work in your favor, especially after such consistent effort over a long period of time. You’re definitely not alone in feeling this way.  It’s a pity we rarely hear from the lucky ones who got the totem sphere within their first 10 tries! hah! Nevertheless, I’ve passed your suggestion on to the developers that it would be great to see some kind of bad luck protection mechanic in this system.
  • By the way, I’ve noticed there are rumors and guesses about who the upcoming Brawls will be dedicated to. I won’t keep it a secret – it’s going to be Folio!

5. Too Many Mistakes and Omissions in Official Announcements

  • Q. Re: news

    Is it that much to ask, to have one person check these posts before they are released?

    Clearly, there is no ToHP happening today. Furthermore in the past month, the announcements have become extremely sloppy. Sometimes you forget to make announcements (e.g., about planned events next week), or you make the announcements at the wrong time (e.g., one of the Free daily Boxes ~10 days ago was messed up and link didn’t work). And other times you give misleading info.

    If we worked like this in our company, we would lose a lot of customers for lack of trust.

    Update: I see the announcement on the HW Community site has now been fixed. But that doesn’t change the fact that they should be checked BEFORE they are released.
  • A. I apologize for some inaccuracies and confusion in the recent announcements. This summer, the release schedule has picked up pace, and many changes have occurred at the last minute, which may have led to some discrepancies. Unfortunately, this can happen from time to time.
    That said, I’d like to highlight that over the past year, transparency and communication have significantly improved: weekly and monthly event calendars, detailed guides and FAQs for heroes and events, support portal articles, and developer interviews e.t.c.
    Thank you for pointing out our mistakes. We’ll do our best to avoid them in the future.
