Arena deck disappeared

[Zawadx]

So I put up an arena deck about 10 or so days ago. But now when I visit arena, it says that I don't have any arena deck at all. I even get the help menu shown when you first visit arena. I've  played against the arena AI and visited the Oracle, so it's not a connectivity problem. Was the arena database wiped a while back?

Nah, you just get a clean start if you log in to a very old deck. Your card should be Skeleton, just like the first day when Arena was introduced. In addition, what Electrum you had stocked up from old decks in Arena should be gone, which gives you an incentive to log in, spin Oracle, beat the predicted FG and collect yer income.

If you leave your deck up for a certain period of time (not sure exactly how long, maybe 2 weeks or something) it will eventually just disappear.  The reason was that sometimes due to the natural win/loss cycle, a deck that was extremely old and just barely out of top 500 would get bumped up to, say 499 or 498 or something, and you'd be facing some 80 day old 1hp deck.  It didn't usually happen, but when the last batch of new shards came in and everyone was farming bronze for them, you'd see these ancient decks quite a bit; with so many of the old players playing bronze at the time, it caused the win rate of bronze to plummet and these forgotten arena decks to come back into the top 500, and it made things way too easy.

Thanks for all the replies. But the thing is, I put up that deck on 11 March according to my arena thread. And I've seen a 583 day old deck. Seems like the system has some bugs.

Uh, no. As I said, it resets if you visit it again after about 10 days of inactivity. The older decks simply haven't been visited.
