We are increasing the trophy penalty in ZOMG and HoM so that a 50% win rate (excluding streak bonuses) would be the minimum to avoid auto demotion. We want to avoid increasing the penalty to 4 or more trophies as it would significantly reduce the number of players in the Hall of Masters and make it much harder to find a match. We’re monitoring the other arenas and may make further adjustments in the future.
