Communication Skills
It is critical to call everything out possible in arena. CC’s are most important to call out. Watch some movies of people 2500+ and listen to their skype conversations. Write down everything you hear. Get yourself to use all these phrases. If you don’t, you will fail.
Here are a few examples:

Start at 1:00 (1 minute) into it to listen in. Notice what acronyms and shorthand things they use:
If you’re arena games don’t sound like this, then this is why you are not at 2500. Communication is the #1 most important thing in arena.
If you have an opportunity, listen in on a match from a team on our server that is 2200+ in 3s and then you have people you can ask questions from later on.

You get the point. Use consistent terms, and call out all CC you apply and that get put on you. If you can’t do this, don’t play arena.
