So, playing the Arena you are matched up with other players with similar wins. 1-1 will play another player on 1-1. So what happens when you are 7-2 and the closest player to your score on at the time is 4-1.
Will this mean you have to sit around in the arena and wait for other players to log on?
Will you be matched up against the 4-1 player?
Or will you have to leave the arena and keep checking back until you can be matched up?
We don't know hwo the matchmaking will work, precisely. Looking at general way Blizz handles things I doubt they'll keep you in queue for a long time. My guess is they'll match you with the best possible candidate within reasonable time. That could be better or worse then you, but I GUESS they'll try to stick to people with the same win total.

Man I just came back from a festival, and the news about the Arena took me by surprise. Didnt think Blizz wanted it to be such an exclusive game mode. I know the game needs a gold sink, but I doubted the required wins will be more than 6. Oh well things might change, and we dont know how much money can we make by playing on the ladder and by doing quests.
