About the Colosseum opponents

[lenleo]

I think it's based on your character's level, your HP, your girl's level, and your alliance level.

I'm now up to League 3, and the Colosseum is completely out of reach, but when I first started playing, ordinary girls at level 1 were able to play the opponent on the left.

I think its only affected by your alliance level... its -4 levels (left), -2 levels (middle) and exactely your level (right). Withing those, there is a large variety + strength of players, as is in the alliance...
Its seems a good idea to not advance too far in alliance, otherwise it gets impossible in colloseum, which has much better rewards than the weak end of trhe season alliance reward.

I advanced to League 3, and if I go back to League 10, will the Colosseum match opponents based on my current League level?

Perhaps... now that the Colloseum is back, you could try... at least drop 1 level, and see if the opponents changed or not... I am afraid it is the max level that determines it... let us know!

I wish there was a reroll option on your opponents (keeping the ranks the same, but giving more choice of opponents in those ranks), so you can try to use more of your team to fight, at the moment I can play 3 or 4 matches in the Colosseum before the rest of my cards are too weak and I have to wait 4 hours.

Coliseum is based on your League rating; the higher up you go, the harder your Coliseum opponent pool. The trade off is that the victory points at base are higher, allowing you to actually fully run through all 18 coliseums. If you reach a point where you can't beat anything, you cannot simply tank your League rating to lower the difficulty. There may be a way to 'soft reset' things if you build and continually use a low-powered team with the intent to lose, but I haven't yet tried that.

Your best strategy is to find a comfortable League level that can get you anywhere between 6-9 total Coliseums completed on the lowest difficulty opponents within the time-frame while allowing you to use all your available cards. Doing this guarantees you get a good amount of chests, some useful lower items that can be used in the weekly event dungeons, and the user-choice card packs that will allow you to build other groups outside the ones from regular dungeons & each floor in League.

As far as doing a hard account reset or fixing an issue if you get too high in your League, the only way I can think of is purposefully winning enough matches are your league level to fill your timed chest drops, then lose so that you can effectively rebound back & forth on the same level until you get enough cards to dig yourself out of the hole. It's very unfortunate there doesn't appear to be an easy way to self-torpedo your account to start from zero, but not much can be expected from a pretty hastily put together match-3 designed to rip dollars and cents from wallets from those unwilling to employ temperance & patience.

Yeah. One key thing about the game is winning numerous "4 levels below your Tower ranking" encounters in the first few levels to get the Applause multiplier maxxed out at x3. I now typically fight those first 12 "minus 4" battles using one of my most powerful cards, one mid-level card, and 3 low-level cards.

Then continue to only fight battles you can win. That way you can progress to somewhere around the 5th or 6th Coliseum, where the rewards start to get pretty good.

Even if you let yourself get demoted in the Tower, the game remembers your highest level for the coliseum event. Realistically, that means sandbagging your Tower Levels, and just not winning (or if you're willing to grind, lose every other battle) so that you don't get promoted above your Tower level.

I wish they balanced the difficulty (or the rewards) between the Tower and the Coliseum better, but such is life.
