The Arena is a place to challenge other Yu-Gi-Oh! BAM players up to 5 times a day for free to improve their score with each victory.
Winning will increase the player's consecutive wins meter, rewarding them with a score in the order of +50, +100, +200, +400 and +800 per win and they receive 6.
Losing will decrease the consecutive wins meter one stage, increase the player's score by 10 points and they receive 2.
An option to reset the daily duels selection can be purchased with 5000, and an additional 2500 for each reset in any given day. This will not affect the consecutive wins meter for that day. Consecutively winning after purchasing will result in +800 per duel.
The player's consecutive wins meter resets at the beginning of each day, along with the cost to reset duels, which reverts to 5000.
The weekly leaderboard and scores are reset to 0 once a week on Monday at 7:00 a.m. UTC.
As of May 29, 2013, an announcement was made about changing the cost to reset the daily duels selection changed to 5000, and an additional 2500 with every new purchase. It resets to 5000 every day.
These changes have been made on June 3, 2013, 7:00 a.m. UTC.
