I'm not going to call out names, since I know some forums don't allow that. But there is a Guild on Thea (USA EST) that have been exploiting the Arena system, and potentially using mods/hacks (the second part is only hypothetical, but it's the only explanation I can see.)
I've noticed that the top 7 in the Arena all belong to the same guild. And right now, the #1 spot is someone with a Rating of over 12k. But every once and a while I see people from his/her guild with Ratings of only 5-6k sitting at the #1 spot. So obviously this player sets his own Rating down on purpose so his guildies can beat him and claim the good prizes and the huge amount of free Gems. Which really isn't fair, and it's kind of exploiting the system.
Now for the potential mods/hacks, the same players that purposely set their own Rating down (I've seen them go down to 4-5k) I try and fight them, and the moment the fight starts, all 5 of the Heroes are different and they completely steamroll me. How do they know I'm about to fight them? How is it that everytime I see this, and try and fight them, they automatically change back to their original 12k Rating?
I don't think exploiting the Arena is fair for anyone not getting this "special treatment". And I think there needs to be a "reset" like Sky Arena has, just so players can't change their Rating over and over just to allow their 5-6k Rating guildies to enjoy the top spots.

Why would it bother you? The gems bonus for the rate bump is just once only until you beat your previous record, they just claim it faster the point of participating in arena after that is just the daily arena coins handout Eventually the top guildies would want to stay at higher rank for higher prize,and the weaks will stay at bottom rank. So it'll eventually sort themselves out

You probably just had bad timing on your attack. It happens. As far as dropping defense of course its allowed don't be silly. In fact its practically promoted by the developers otherwise how would the top guy ever get 5 victories. He has to drop def and lose a few so he can gain it back. Heck on my server people are so happy to lose rank that they publicly advertise on main chat that they are in position one with terrible defense please come get me etc etc.

I am one of many people who drop my defense after 9pm each day, putting just one hero in my team. I get beat down from the top 100 to position 1000, and I work my way back up in the morning. It's the only way I could get 5 arena wins each day without risking defeat. I don't feel this is cheating, just part of the game...
