Shupe should be removed from Arena

Like suggested during the PTR by many players, including myself. Shupe gives an unfair advantage, which makes the discrepancy between golds an even bigger issue in the arena.
 
Shupe is a ridiculously good card in Arena. I might not mind if everyone had the same number of golds. Not sure.
 
I don't like how Shupe is 9 cards in one. It needs to be down to no more than 3 choices. They can make the other 6 choices into other Shupe cards that can have an additional tag synergy with each other.

Maybe getting rid of his versatility might reduce ridiculousness of the card in casino mode.

Wasn't Shupe mainly created for Arena?

Shupe was created to motivate players to try to create a different kind of deck. Don't think is was specifically meant for arena.
 
don't think it should be removed from arena. On average your win rate won't change if this card gets removed from arena, because there are also games when you will play this card yourself. This is a good chance for casual player to win more games than he should've and feel great.
 
I faced Shupe in Arena once -- or almost faced, as he was discarded by Iris' Companions. :p

I don't think he needs to be removed from the gamemode. If you're lucky enough to get him without having picked any duplicates for your deck, and manage to actually draw him, then good for you. Everyone has an equal chance of getting him in their deck, so it's not even unfair.

Also, from a purely subjective viewpoint, he is too cool to be banned from Arena.

Agree with removal he's too OP, can easily decide Arena matches on his own, scrapping any tactics that's been put into deck build or the match that far.
Actually I had the option to draft him, but only after I've included a duplicate into my deck. Just my luck :) As a matter of fact him alone is a huge incentive to avoid collecting duplicates, and I don't think that's a good thing.

I see these arguments often regarding coinflip and CA Spies blackjack. Sure if you only care about win rates and rewards it's fair on the long run. I'm more interested in gameplay though and I think the matches should be balanced on their own. I'd much rather prefer a fair fight than a rigged one even if the chances are rigged in my favor.

Yeah it's very strong, i don't mind seeing it gone. I think stats will show this aswell, for example at contracts 7,8,9 all my opponents had Shupe and a reliable way to pull it, either with Francesca or Skellen.
