Some important Highlights:
Battle and Shadow Arenas will be used for Survival Duels too. See it like an upgrade to Arenas. You duel normally and just decide if the duel will count as Survival as well or not. That being said, the rules of Arenas apply first and then they are updated with the rules of Survival Duels.
1. Battle and Shadow Arena sections will be used to post results of your duels. All duels need to be confirmed too in order to be processed. Upon agreement with your opponent about Battle or Shadow Arena duel, you will also agree if you wish to count the duel as Survival. If you choose to, your Bio-Bands will be updated at the end.
2. Battle and Shadow Arena Challenges subforums will be used to make challenge topics to find your opponent easily. You do everything like you do for Arenas and additionally mention if you wish to count it as Survival Duel.
Also note that now, since you duel in Arenas for Survival as well, remember the duel rule:
3. All duels must be "best 2 out of 3" Match Duel. All other things such as TCG, OCG, Advanced, Traditional are decided by duelists themselves.
So if you wish to count the duel as Survival as well, you will need to follow Survival rules and you will not be able to do a single duel to count as Survival as you sometimes do for Battle Arena.
So why do we do this? Because we will not stop at Survival Duels, more things are coming to DA and if we simply use Arenas for all those it will clear all confusion. Also many people did not duel in Survival because there was no DP reward. Now you can do normal Arena duels and count them as Survival too without losing any advantages of Arenas.
Enjoy!
