Do you realize that sometimes reinforcements like Scimitar actually make it harder for the Mal counter? I've seen some high end players and guilds use it on defense in TW and GAC as well. It doesn't ALWAYS work out for them of course, since the AI can derp in many ways, but it's a valid counter to the Mal counter. Even Lando's falcon is extremely dangerous if you don't finish the battle quick enough, as he can just wipe out your entire team (or what's left of it). Pure BH lineups on defense might be a bit more consistent, but certain other ships can mess the Mal counter up massively since they're unpredicatable. For Exec MIRRORS, a pure BH lineup usually does much better on defense, but for non-Exec fleets "random" ships can really mess up the battle sometimes.
