The Arena
The Arena exists alongside regular Multiplayer battles and allows you to scout up to three opponents before attacking. Harder opponents are higher on the leaderboard, thus worth more honor for a win, and less for a loss.
Arena Battles do not reward Gold or Rings. Instead, they break the multiplayer 5,000 Honor limitation and every victory rewards the prestigious Arena Chest.
