Thanks @Ice Dragon, @MrSmokestack & @Korath88 for the info and explanations! I used to be able to able to get top 1.000 (Granted, with 3/4 Fury users), however this week I've been pushed out of top 5.000 already while using a fully skilled team (Nino/Eirika/SChrom/Tharja with a total of 8 merges and a deathless run. Can I assume that, if these theories are indeed correct, other people have more merge levels than me?
It is strange though, since I was sure I was getting more points using Effie and Nowi instead of Nino/Tharja, though it might have been just the 'luck' of finding higher points opponents I guess.I think your problem is you need to skip lower point battles. Your team should be capable of a score of 4830+ which is competitive for Top 1000. The arena match up system gives out a wide range of opponents with a tendency to give opponents on the lower end. If you only fought the 690+ teams, your score would be higher. However, you'll likely have to spend a lot of dueling swords to keep rerolling for high point match ups. I have a friend with only 2 merge levels that is in the 4830 range. If you have 8, you should be able to go even higher.

I hate the new arena....
While I may get a higher score this time around (little over rank 1100 atm), the teams I'm facing are obnoxious as all hell. I see so many Ninian+4, Rheinhardt +3, Nino+5, Kagero+3, Linde+5, etc. (just to name a few) with the Fury/LoD Bladetome/Massbuff Kamikaze builds and the like that I have to surrender on the selection screen now if it isnt a unit I can safely remove. I mean wth? I'm F2P, I only have a +1 Lucina and only decent skills besides my cookie cutter Nowi with TA3/QP3 and I'm faced against obvious whales. This is really tiring and taking a lot of the fun out of the experience for me since having a no-death run has become quite the chore. Nuh uh, don't like that new Matchmaking, no sir, though I know some like the challenge (I just want feathers).
A friend of mine with only two Lv40+1 units on his team said he started to face a lot more high merge teams after he put the Sacred Seals on his characters. I wonder if the reverse works. If you are using them, try taking off the Sacred Seals on your characters. This will slightly lower the score you get in the arena as well as the strength of you opponents. But, if you don't feel up to the task of taking on high merge teams, there no point in drawing them as opponents anyways.

There's a guy on GameFAQs who uses vanilla teams, or Kagero with one change and no other changes running into full fury teams post patch.
Either its a binary "IS used y/n" filter, or its uh, not a very good filter range if it exists at all.
I have a friend with the reverse problem. He has a team with 2x Lv40+1 and 2x Lv40 that was decked out with Fury 3 and other custom skills. He keeps getting 4x Lv40+0 teams with default skills as opponents even under Advanced. He just steamrolls his opponents. He is pretty annoyed that the game won't pair him against opponents that are even equally strong and chooses to tank his score instead. He used to be a Top 1000 player but may now have problems making Top 5000. He's also one of those Lunatics who liked fighting Lv40+7s so he loses out on have fun battles as well.

The countdown timer is correct but the first post still says "12:15pm and 1:00pm GMT+0" and needs to be fixed.
-
Based on this screenshot the event is at 8:15pm Japan Time. If it is correct, the times in the first post are off by an hour.

Arena uses your best 7 win streak as your score. After you win 7 in a row, you automatically start a new win streak.
-
Yes, it means that you are outside the Top 100000. You probably need a score around 3900 to be in the Top 100000 right now. Keep in mind that your rank only updates at the start of every hour so if you get a new high score you may need to wait a bit before your rank updates.
-
Rally, Defiant, Fortify and Hone do not stack with each other (on the same stat). Goad, Spur and Ward skills stack endlessly.
-
Hector has Goad Armor. It gives +4 Atk and +4 Spd to any armored units within 2 spaces and it stacks. This means if the Hector are close together, each one gets +12 Atk and +12 Spd from the other 3. 24->36 speed means Hector is very difficult to double and Hector will even double a lot of other units including Roy and both Tiki. 52->64 Atk means Hector hits like a truck even when resisted.

My rank just changed to 23855. How the heck did i rank up by almost 50k, without doing anything!??
It takes time for your rank to update. I think it happens at the start of every hour. A score of 4198 is currently way higher than 71581st so your rank was definitely out of date. Like my score is a fair bit lower and I'm in the Top 50000.

That team doesn't have bonus character on it. You can't get a score of 4000+ without a bonus character. Also, you don't need 5* characters to get a score of 4000. 4x Lv40 4* units where at least one is a bonus unit should be able to clear 4000 easily.
-
The odds of going 120 draws without drawing a 5* is 1 in 3584019. Getting 5 free 5*s may sound cool but 5/125 is only 4% and well below the baseline average of 6%.
-
It is currently believed that the reward cap is higher if your units have higher stats. I guess it would be accurate to say if your units have higher stats, you fight opponent with higher stats who give more points. That means you want 4x 5* Lv40s. It doesn't stop there, though. You want Lv40s with high stats like Hector. I don't know if it is confirmed but I imagine "+1" levels count. So you want something lie 3x 5* Lv40+10 Hector and 1x 5* Lv40+10 bonus unit to maximize points. After that, you just need to win 7 straight Advanced Arena battles with no deaths.

Where'd Brom be on that? I'm having trouble sorting through it.
328th with 466 votes.

For those interested, I made a version of the results where different versions of the same character are combined:

On the same exact site...
*Note: These characters are seen on Official Trailers, Gameplays, Official Twitter, Official updates
I hope my first pull is a tellius character. Literally any of them would be me so happy
Ike has never shown up in actual gameplay only as general art in promo material. If that's what they are using as evidence that Ike is in the game on Day 1, I think they are being too aggressive in how they count characters.
-
We are still waiting for results.

RD Ike probably goes down due to Ike fans focusing on keeping PoR Ike in first. FE1 Marth goes up a bit due to Marth fans focusing on one Marth. He might pass Chrom. Donnel should rise considerably. Once a rally smells blood, it goes in for the kill. Not even PoR Ike is safe. Similarly, Dorcas will rise a lot. Likely Top 10 but won't pass Donnel who has a stronger rally.
I think Lucina rallies back and beats Lyn. It could go either way. FE7 fans splitting their vote on Lyn and Hector will hurt them and Hector chasing Ike is probably a lost cause. Corrin might pass Camilla but probably not Tharja. Mia and Nephenee might do better since their fans now know which version to support.
If I'm lucky, RD Ike falls and matches up exactly with Micaiah for a cool looking wallpaper.
-
The front page of the voting site says voting has now ended. It also shows a picture of PoR Ike.
-
Considering Anna is in the middle of the picture, I think you are reading into it too much.

-
The Japanese release date is also February 2nd so it shouldn't be any later than 23:59 Japan Time.
-
We have absolutely no idea what they are doing behind the scenes to try and catch people who are trying to cheat. All we really know is that one internet connection is gets one vote a day. If you try and bypass this limit what you do might work or it might just cause all of your votes to be thrown out.

Ike fans should be the farthest thing from worried about these results, unless they're REALLY picky about wanting RD Ike vs PoR Ike.
The results confirmed that different versions of characters are counted separately and also confirmed that Ike voters are reasonably split over which Ike to vote for which exacerbates the problem. PoR Ike in first only guarantees that he has at least one more vote than Roy. There's a lot to worry about!

4834 is rank 1007 with 1 hour to go. 4835 should be safe.
Edit: I forgot that 4835 is an odd score and thus there should be very few people with that score. It might not be safe if there are fewer than 7 people with that score.
