Suggestion for Budokai

This is a problem i have and all my friends hate at that is when you get passed Budokai Prelims the first match you have no idea who your fighting until the short seconds after you accept the summon to arena this is extremely annoying since there is such a wide range of classes with all different stuns etc and for a thing that we wait 1 week for we should at least be able to use the gear needed for the fight. My last problem is not being able to use friends shortcuts to target the player before match starts this is another annoying thing since DBOG has a major stutter problem when you target after match starts at least from my experience.
