We've revaluated certain aspects of how the arena system and current arena season will be affected during both the next content patch, and the launch of Wrath of the Lich King. For starters, the current arena season will end in respect to the ladder upon the release of our next major patch. What this means is, we'll be taking a snapshot of the current season's ladder just before the realms are taken down for patch maintenance, and our normal process will commence to determine who is eligible for the end-of-season rewards. Teams and ratings will not be wiped at that time, and will carry forward allowing players to earn points each week (and buy gear) until the launch of the expansion on November 13th. Almost immediately before Wrath of the Lich King releases, all arena teams as well as ratings will be wiped and arena charter NPCs disabled.

First.

Edit: good move. 51 point talents would screw up arenas pretty bad.
Edit #2: Belthassar fails imo.

Can we just disable Arena permanently?

I say a big pit.
Full of dirt.
We'll call it Pit of Dirt.

Brace for impact.

Consider this post your 2 week notice.

I bet the patch will go live on the 14th of October.

Good idea. Arenas as is with the new talents would turn into a horrid screaming and crying and cry for nerf.
