So this is a bit of a complaint but also a suggestion.
Arena right now is just a complete mess. I was struggling to rank up before because i couldn't find anyone in ranked arena, i would spend hours without fighting anyone. Now that i've access to cross-server arena, it's just even worst. The system as it is, is "i'm jonin so i will fight other people that are also jonin and sometimes kage" ok sounds good. The problem is, those guys have 90% of the time, a lot of advance compared to me. Their server opened a long time ago and their bp is like 10 to 20k ahead of me which makes it impossible.
Also, to the people who will come and say "arena doesn't take into account the bp, only initiative" This is false and i'm sure you know that well. The mods told us that but that's not true,if it was, why would i get shred in the first turn while i barely deal any damage back? doesn't matter the comp (mine or opponent).
I have 2 accounts, one of them has 50k bp, the others has 31k as of now, and yet, because of the same ranks in arena, i fought myself twice in a row.... How 50k bp vs 30k bp seems fair? even if it's only initiative that's taken into account, it's obvious who's gonna win lol
So why just say "oh you're jonin, fight a jonin and try to win" in an completely unfair matchup instead of putting peoples into "pools" while taking into account their Battle power and only allow people that have between 30-35 to fight other with 30-35bp and 50k bp fighting 45-55k bp for example.
I'm sure the matchup would be more faire overall.
