I thought arena involved skill

I dont mean to whine or complain, but i thought the whole idea of arena's were to show and prove skill, who is the best of the best. Instead it is whoever can abuse LoS the most.
I hope blizzard implements an arena like gurubashi arena or the one in DM, where it is totally flat and no hiding places. That would demonstrate skill.

Q u o t e:
Using the terrain and surrounding structures as cover sounds like a skill to me.

Me too.

I mean, there's definitely the skill of using your class effectively but there's also knowing the game and your environment. Those that can take any part of the game and effectively use it to their advantage is what I would consider skill. Knowledge of the game and ability to use that knowledge to win.

This is Spartaaaaa ... oh wait.

Q u o t e:

How about climbing inside walls? Is that skill?

Sounds like a bug to me, but I suppose that was a rhetorical question anyhow. A one, and a two, and a you know what to do.
