Arena

The Arena was a new, temporary tournament. Season 1 began on March 24th and ended on April 12th of 2010. It provided a new challenge to higher-level players. With the introduction of War, the Arena tab was removed from the Battle page.

General Overview
In the Arena, competitors fight against each other in a pretty similar manner to that of the classical 1v1 battle style, either by invading or dueling. However, victories in the arena don't count for the classical Battle Rank. Instead, the winner earns a number of Arena Points which determine the Arena Rank by percentiles. At the conclusion of the Arena Season, the higher your rank is, the better your prize, and the more prizes you receive.

Arena Guard
Your Arena Guard will give you advantages while battling in Arena. Your Arena Guard will not provide any benefits outside of Arena. Each Arena Guard will stay with you for 24 hours.
