Increase the rewards and more people will play, I think. A few days ago, not only it was shiny and new, but also the rewards were much higher (gold was above 150, now below 130 - platinum above 200, now below140) so all decks got more plays. Not to mention that the decks were also a bit easier, at least in my experience.

I disagree...imo rewards are already really good.

Comparison:

imho gold is a bit easier then FGs:

gold:
cost: 15
win: around 120

FG: cost 30
win: 60

sure, you get upped spins with FGs...but its not that impossible to win 4 gold in a row...and special spins really have high chance of winning a upped card

imho silver is a bit harder then Half-Blood

silver: 15
win: around 60

HB: cost 20
win: 40

so if you fight arena, even if you only get a special win occasionally, you will already make quite some decent gold.

I disagree to this. IMHO, with unupped deck, farming gold is way harder than FG. Problem with arena is that majority are using the usual "Rainbow" decks + SoGs (in other words, balanced and boring). However FGs are easily exploited the fact that many of them don't even have permanent controls. In fact some FGs (such as Neptune or Decay) are actually easier than some of the bronze decks.

Besides the rewards, I think farming FG is less boring because there are actually more variations, contrary to the "dump 12 SoGs, quantum pillars and 6 supernovas" typical arena deck.

As it stands, Arena are not rewarding enough because FGs or even halfbloods are way more lucrative. Halfbloods are way easier than most of the bronze league decks and you can win upgraded cards from them.
