Realms Arena 1x1

[MouseZzlol]

I just want an answer. Why not make a 1x1 arena for which you could get mmr?

"1v1 arena" is just trying to give a fancy name to Duels, in an attempt to get rewards from something that gives none.
Plus it's custom content, easily abuseable and other things.

Make it so you can't abuse it, that's all.

I doubt it's worth the effort and constant monitoring for wintrading.
And it's still custom content without a real good reason to be introduced.

Ok, but I don't consider that to be an answer to the question, topic closed

I'd rather you give Icecrown the same "challenge player" system Blackrock has. No rewards, no mmr, no titles, no rankings and no gear. Just the ability to challenge someone to a 1v1 in arena and the ability for people to organize 1v1 tournaments inside them.

The game isn't balanced around 1v1. Some classes easily counter others. Offering any kind of reward for such a system is not a good idea. Even if everyone played fairly, you'd still have groups of players getting shafted because of their chosen class/specialization. Not ideal at all. If it offered no rewards, and yes that includes mmr, like Baartleby2 suggested, that would be a bit more acceptable. However, this custom content existing outside of Blackrock would likely only be seen on a seasonal realm at best.

Every comment here could apply to 2v2 as well.
Certain comps destroy other comps, certain specs aren't viable, etc. Maybe 2v2 should be deleted since it isn't fair to fury warriors and survival hunters.

I see no issue with 1v1 arenas if the only reward was personal rating and entertainment.

Forget personal rating, have the entertainment with Duels.
