There’s 2 sides to every argument about this game, and every one of them are tired. I’m nowhere near a whale and know I will never be, but I think the match making is better than it was. And that’s coming from someone who’s only won the first round in each of my last 3 GA. BUT, I always felt like I had a chance.
You have to use strategy. Setting the same defense for every battle is not strategy. The BIGGEST key to GA is anticipation. Flat out. Gotta anticipate who the opponent might place on D, and who they may attack with. I don’t have either Revan, and just knocked off a guy with full G12/zeta Revan squad, cuz he elected to use it for attacking. I blew thru his D, and he couldn’t touch the back wall. Poor planning on his part. Had he simply put Revan on D, he woulda most likely won. So there ya go. ANTICIPATE your opponents moves. I’m surprised this hasn’t been said before.
