They are taking out Random Arena, Team Arena, and Hero Battle. Those will be replaced with Sealed Deck Tournament. Although there has been many attempts by ArenaNet to find a solution to the problems, they have decided to just do away with them.

Meanwhile, they are letting players do whatever they want in those PvP areas.

Random Arena isn't going away, it's just TA and HB.

@ OP yes that is one of the many reasons Hb is getting removed.

I think it's a 4v4 battle with random skill bars assigned to each player.

EDIT: Actually, this is what it means. Google is for the win.

hero battles are being taken out because of the /roll when it worked, the current red resign, and because of these ease with which the tournament matches are manipulated.

Look out!

Basically, hb and ta are broken. Hb had the /rollers first, now the red resigns so it's impossible to make people actually fight if they want to earn their title points. Ta is just gimmick builds fighting gimmick builds, with occasional mixed teams from ra.

They're not taking ra out, because they've made it harder to sync and thus cheat your way into points.

TA was never broken, just deserted and a victim of this.

I actually cant wait for Sealed deck, I think it'll be able to root out the skilled pvp'rs compared to the ones that just know how to 123412312341231234123
