Purpose in the arena these days: Black Pearls and gems.
Gems as we all know have other ways without involving real $$ or arena. Friends help a lot in 1 day more than arena in 1 week.
Black Pearl is the main thing really. Top 3 give you decent amount, lower than that is just bad. If you going to get #10 you might as well do something productive in real life for the week.
Before the last update you can still grind it and have good chance to get into top 5. Now it becomes just nearly impossible unless you want to splurge on spells and gems. Then you can a small win that give you 5 stars. Big 9 or 10 star wins are very uncommon now.
“Playing Well” to me is when you can stay within top 5 when you do 2 games every 3 hrs, couple games more if you want to get a push. And also you keep the winning streak alive. Otherwise World of Tanks and World of Warships are way more fun, they can have my money.
The old re-shuffles mid-late tournament used to balance things out to make playing worthwhile. Not sure we will see them again.
