The presence of Omega Agent in arena completely dominates most classes and decks.
Going against Omega Agent as a Shaman is just unplayable and if they have more than one copy of it, you can't really do nothing about it. Priest, Druid, Warrior (a little less), Rogue, Hunter all struggle so hard to play against this one card. Unlike a legendary that can turn the game around, this is an epic, so people can have multiple copies of it and it shows up more often (it's a class card too). It's a toxic card and should not be able to play in arena. Omega cards in general have too high of a power level in arena but I think Omega Agent is straight up toxic.
I don't play a ton of arena, but there's a couple things wrong here. First off, you can contain multiple legendaries in arena, you just need to get lucky enough to find them. Rarity matters less in arena as it focuses on different buckets. If a card is strong in arena, it is placed in a high bucket and thus, is rarer than a card in a lower bucket.
That being said, I do think that Omega Agent is pretty hard to play against and recently on reddit, people found out that omega cards have been appearing a lot more. Really not sure why Blizzard would do this, but it definitely shouldn't be this way.

I don't have something witty about this deck, I just like it because Malygos is fun.
To get the exact same legendary that's good is extremely rare.
Yes, you can get duplicate legionaries in arena. To get a good one is rare enough, to get the same good one twice in a row is not even happening once every 100 arenas. It's extremely rare.
12/15 pile of stats that can't be wiped by Flamestrike? I wouldn't call it toxic, but I agree that it's effect is too powerfull in arena and omega cards should be banned liked DKs.

It is not toxic.
It’s science!
