Removing most AOV-exclusive pages. And despite coming first, most people would go to the more accessible AOV first after Vainglory, it's less than likely they suddenly jumped to the Chinese-exclusive HOK. So... yeah.


* BonusBoss: Two of them:
** Kraydus the Abyssal Dragon. The boss started out weak, but over time will get stronger and in 10 minutes, will be replaced with a more powerful version of itself (Enraged Kraydus). Beating it yields a buff that will enhance your hero depending on their class and a buff that will make the whole team more durable against...
** The Dark Slayer. The boss is the major boss that might require more than one hero to take down. Beating it gives you a whole team buff and the privilege to summon Slayer, a special siege monster that can take out towers quick and safe out of the towers' range (but will still go down if ganged up by heroes)
* CulturalTranslation: The majority of ''Wangzhe Rongyao'' heroes were heavily based on Chinese culture, so when it became ''Arena of Valor'', they had to redesign to be less exclusively on China. Wukong, Lu Bu and Diao Chan were so far the only Chinese characters left (and even they were using the skillset of another character).
* DamnYouMuscleMemory: Coming from ''VideoGame/{{Vainglory}}'' would be a harsh experience to get used to this game because of the different movement control scheme in general.
