World Arena Summer 2025 Season Infographic [38]
Hello, Heirs.
This is Epic Seven.
We would like to provide information on the season infographic for the World Arena Summer 2025 Season competition, which ended on August 2, 2025. We extend our gratitude to all Heirs who enjoyed the World Arena this season.
■ Pre-Ban The pre-ban rate here refers to the percentage of matches in which the Hero was pre-banned among all matches. For example, if a Hero's pre-ban rate is 50%, it means the Hero had been pre-banned for half of all the matches counted.
■ First Pick The term "First Pick" refers to the first Hero selected by the player assigned the First Pick role, with one Hero counted per match. For example, if a Hero has a 30% First Pick rate, it means that the First Pick player chose that Hero first in approximately 30% of all matches. The following data also shows the post-pick ban rate of the Heroes.
■ Pick The term "Pick" here refers to the Heroes selected by a player in a match, including their First Picks. If a certain Hero has a pick rate of 50%, it means the Hero has been drafted by either player in half of all matches. |

3. Overall Thoughts
First, we would like to express our sincere gratitude to all Heirs who made the Summer 2025 Season of World Arena truly special.
Looking back to the start of the season, the impact of the two Heroes, Boss Arunka and Rinak, was particularly notable, while Fallen Cecilia, strengthened through the balance adjustment, quickly established herself as a central character in the meta. In addition, tempo-oriented compositions featuring Lidica, who benefited from the balance adjustment, and Spirit Eye Celine, who received new Exclusive Equipment, also rose to prominence.
Midway through the season, the meta underwent another shift, led by Desert Jewel Basar, who was buffed, and Straze, who received new Exclusive Equipment. With Desert Jewel Basar's usage increasing, compositions centered around Fallen Cecilia became more difficult to execute. As a result, teams that secured the first turn advantage were able to apply heavy pressure on their opponents by utilizing powerful damage dealers such as Afternoon Soak Flan and Straze.
As the season entered its later stages, Amid, who received new Exclusive Equipment, and the new Heroes Witch of the Mere Tenebria and Aram emerged as near meta-changers, firmly establishing themselves at the center of the meta. These Heroes proved especially powerful when used in compositions that leveraged initiative to seize tempo quickly. The season ultimately concluded with fast-tempo teams built around these Heroes clashing against counter-strategies devised to stop them.
We are fully aware of the concerns surrounding the continued dominance of first turn initiative, and we have established plans to ease this trend in the upcoming season. We will do our utmost to ensure that all Heirs who love World Arena can enjoy a more balanced combat experience.
Next, we would like to introduce the key changes coming to World Arena in the Fall 2025 Season.
1. Introduction of "Warfare Rules"
First, a new system, "Warfare Rules," will be applied to World Arena.
In this system, one rule is randomly selected from a set of predefined conditions at the start of a World Arena match, after which Ban Pick proceeds. The Warfare Rule applied to that match will be revealed before the Pre-Ban selection stage, and can also be checked during the Ban Pick phase or even in battle.
The four Warfare Rules that will be applied in the Fall Season are as follows:
① [Offense] Increases Defense Penetration of Warrior Heroes by 20%.
② [Defense] Increases Penetration Resistance by 30%.
③ [Weakening] Increases Burn and Bleed damage by 50%.
④ [Resistance] Increases Effect Resistance by 100%. |
The purpose of introducing this system is to expand upon the existing Battle Frenzy system, allowing players to experience more varied types of battles within a single season. As a result, players who can adapt flexibly to changing situations and make broad use of diverse Heroes will gain a greater advantage. Ultimately, we hope this will help ease the stagnation of the meta and allow the strategic choices of our Heirs to shine even brighter.
Warfare Rules will be available starting with the September 11 update, following the E7WC 2025 Finals on September 6. As this is a brand-new system, we had initially considered introducing it during the Pre-Season. However, in order to avoid major changes to World Arena systems during the E7WC period, it will instead be implemented in the regular season. We kindly ask for your understanding on this matter.
Warfare Rules will be applied to both Rank Battles and Mock Battles. However, since this will be the first season where Warfare Rules are implemented in Rank Battles, we have decided not to apply them across all leagues right away. Instead, they will first be applied to higher leagues, and we will monitor the results. Therefore, in the Fall Season, Warfare Rules will only be applied to matches at Champion league or higher.
With the introduction of Warfare Rules, we expect to see various changes across multiple aspects of gameplay, including Ban Pick dynamics and battle flow. Accordingly, we will be closely monitoring the live status and gathering feedback from our Heirs through various channels.
2. Pre-Bans Changed to 2 Across All Leagues
Starting with the Fall 2025 Season, the number of Pre-Bans will be unified to 2 across all leagues, including Placement Matches.
Previously, the number of Pre-Bans was limited to 1 below Master league, in order to reduce the difficulty of World Arena for Heirs with fewer grown Heroes.
However, this also created inconveniences for Heirs in higher leagues who had to adjust to having only 1 Pre-Ban at the start of each season. In addition, many newly participating Heirs found it difficult to access information, as most World Arena guides assumed the use of 2 Pre-Bans.
Taking into account the Hero Support System introduced during the Summer Season, we determined that having different Pre-Ban counts by league now acts as more of a hurdle rather than a benefit. Accordingly, we are improving this system by applying a consistent Pre-Ban count across all leagues.
Lastly, with the September 11 update, World Arena will receive a new Lobby background music and Ban Pick background music. We thank you as always for your interest and support, and wish you the best of luck in World Arena.
Thank you.

Where is the Fall 2025 season infographic?
I'm fine with the changes, good or bad.
Now what I want them to really change, is putting the dang splash/profile banner at the end of pick/ban. Easy change, lets people actually get to do sick things in the game for fun. Where currently once you get high enough your locked into a generic splash.
I like this addition to RTA. It doesn’t matter whether these specific rules are good or bad, I like the possibilities and variety they can bring to the meta. I honestly hope this helps to revitalize characters that have become obsolete over time.
For the same reason, I like that Harsetti still exists just as she is. Her passive, both on your team and against you, enables characters and builds that otherwise wouldn’t be played. I hope they don’t change her
To Smilegate,
Just create another version of Harsetti so Top speed players stop complaining about her. A passive that does something like "At the start of the battle, shuffles the turn order of all heroes."
Death for all cleavers
If you are complaining about a problem without proposing a solution you are whining.
I am a cleaver, this system harms me the most. IDC. We have complained about diversity in RTA for years. Sure this is forced diversity, but it will likely help. It will make people consider drafting different heroes and teams based on the warfare mode. Not just slam the same comp to emperor every single round (like i did last season).
That is boring and boring is the enemy of fun.
Blows that they couldn't test it preseason due to WC. Call it lazy or call it necessary, whatever.
If it is garbage, we brigade them till its changed.
SG promised to take more risks & give RTA more attention to promote diversity.
So as hard as this is on my style, im for it.
They feel cleave is too strong.
They said as much in their podcast.
So none of this is really shocking.
Lets give it a ride & see how it goes.
Next, maybe SG will take the real steps of removing Harsetti from the game & adding a RTA shop
Did someone say RTA shop? Woah woah baby steps, how about everyone cry until they flip the switch to bring back daily RTA free energy banner first?
Talking about risk. What if Smilegate makes Harsetti not bannable instead? :D
Still, this won't change the fact that Smilegate is going to buff their favorite pet named Riolet indirectly.
1. Setsuka and artifact release
2. Riposte Set
3. Warfare #4: Increase Effect Resistance by 100%
4. Didn't have warfare rules that buff mages that usually kill Riolet.
5. No warfare rules that increase the Hit Chance or Accuracy of both teams.
How they gonna sell Setsuka with those rules?!
No, Really, why would they set rules that pre-nerf an untested unit before her release.
thats dumb
TristenWulfI understand your point. I'm just annoyed that Riolet gets too much buff recently while other heroes have been ignored. I love the Setsuka hero tho. :D
ArchdukEZThis comment aged so bad, Riolet is still dog water
This is ridiculous.
Making this changes "Rules" without letting the most important part *the players* test it first
What is the point of pre season ?
They said they couldn't do it in pre-season without impacting E7WC.
That's why its coming out a week after season starts.
TristenWulfWhy not wait until next preseason?
Looks like Smilegate forgot about Ranger, Mage, Soul Weaver, and Thief classes. Imagine newer players who rely on Witch Tenebria or debuffers only to get #4 warfare: 100% effect resistance. Or players who have no Empyrean Illynav only to get warfare rule #1: Increase Penetration for Warriors. You could have used the preseason to test these out and ask for community feedback before rolling this out

Lazy excuse but thats the reason.
2 unfun warfare rules 1 useless and 1 reused. a full month of pre season for this and did not even test it
bald
I mean they said they delayed it out of preseason to not impact E7WC.
Dude your opinion is coming from a 1% angle, like everyone is top 200 rta… your opinion has absolutely no relevance to the other 99% of the player base who can’t run this unit due to the overwhelming roster of hard counters. She has a non atk skill, something SG worked tirelessly to add counters for. She had counters… also something SG wanted to see plenty of answers to. And don’t even get me started on the provoke debuff…. Literally renders her useless if there’s a cleanse or the debuff just doesn’t land. SG needs to offer refunds with an ML selector with absolutely no limitations to what units can be picked. This is their mistake and they should wear it with shame. Hopefully they stop dropping ridiculously stacked MLS that are far too powerful. Like ml illynavs kit is so stacked it could have been spread across 3 heroes ffs. This isn’t going to change anything for the 99% of the player base you just can’t speak for.
Alusha@alusha
I think you are talking about Witch?
If so... weird L take.
And also you replied to the wrong comment.
TristenWulfBeen top 200 RTA 3+ years. straight. Don't you think it's bad when you stay without any progress during 3 years in a row ? I saw your streams and you are bad player. You still do not understand how to counter pick, how to detect cleave, how to anticleave, how to detect a trap, you have no tactic, you just bad, maybe bad+ / mid- but nothing to be proud of. Look at the top 100 no one of them are trying to show off ppl just playing the game and getting fun. Let's take a look at your examples. Axarian- a filthy cleaverast with a limitless access to the game resources. Kneeman - just a noname. Nice. About win rate in top 10, I have no idea what the 80%+ are you talking about but in the real world it is 74%. Looks like you ** up everywhere you could.
weird rule, so mage players and other things now are eliminated? Why all the 4 buffs just to favor the tank?
Man, forget it, SG love tank players, knights are her favorites.
Next RTA Season: Grants 5-turn undispellable Immunity, Cdmg Resistance, Penetration resistance to all Knights.
SG said on their live stream that they feel cleave is unbalanced so its not surprising to see them do things that favor standard and tankdown over cleave. (and lets be real this favors standard most)
I know changing is scary for most of the player base, but this warfare rules are really good for the game and make no mistake them being OP as Ilynav passive is great, because will really shape how the match is played. I think is a good idea to have only four for the first season, but having more will for sure make the game even less stale.
Thats another big W SG, and please wait to see the results of the system before changing because of potential backlash from players that are scared of change.
I would like to add that rules that have implied gameplay could be a good idea. Like, for example, Knights have 10% extra HP but SW and Mages have 100% Effectiveness, making Knights clearly stronger but at the same time creating a clear counter via debuffs.
The community will for sure give allot of fun ideas, so keep listening to feedback!
It's the 7th anniversary, maybe its about time you start rewarding players for participating in the game mode keeping players around? Every single thing you do in the game gives some sort of return or progression EXCEPT RTA. All the crybabies from the past who complained about giving out rewards for RTA are long gone already, maybe time to test the waters again??????
Maybe take a look at the data for draft arena games played and see all the dev time spent on this mode going to waste. Maybe just a tiny bit of incentive???? Players both old and new want the feeling of progression and RTA gives 0.
Man spittin facts
a unit that is pre-banned more than 70% of the time for 3 seasons in a row surely is not problematic and surely not unfun for the game
BEST COMMENT WORLD!
I personally like the new Warfare condition before entering the pre-ban phase in RTA, I think it will definitely shake up the way we play and allow for more fun comps to be played. I also really enjoy the fact that all leagues have a now 2 permanent prebans, it makes it much easier to climb in my opinion, I simply hope that this will not handicap the newer players too much. Great changes overall in my opinion
I beg your pardon?? So you mean before each game theres a chance i get a free Ilynav passive, 2 free maidchloes worth of ER, the frenzy you scrapped last season or 20% pen for my warriors
Tank players just sit back and play every game the same and wait to get showered by buffs. Meanwhile everyone else scrambling to slot in a warrior or a niche burn or bleed unit. Nice one SG
yep.
Dust off your bellona ;)
Dev with all of these past years til 7th anniversary are you realized all of your pure Single target DPS are not killing ??
- Luna the first single target dps can't kill **** for 7 years
- Cidd the improved Luna with speed imprint
- Watcher shuri the speed imprint but still can't kill real tank unit
- Little queen charlotte the dark killer that's still **** for most part
- Mellona was ok for awhile
Pure single target dps are hard to set up and very situational, however they are important and need to counter " tank ".
meanwhile all of them currently lacking of dps because your tank are too bloat, also just dps can't kill anymore. they need to have secondary effect like ignore damage sharing etc.
it's 7th years already if you don't even notice the simple rule, then we have to rely on Moon Luna otherwise we have no way to kill the tank.
your issue always like this
OP tank
> buff another tank or counter tank
> realized new tank you just buff is bloat
- why don't just buff pure 1tdps archetype???
I like how you ignored Jenua
