That's how "playing chicken" works.

I have not had anyone wait that long yet.

Oh my opponent is only attacking me now. Right after i cleared the board about 10min ago. Of course i was waiting too, but it’s 1230am now.

I said it before and i’ll say it again, just hide the fricking points. It’s not strategy if your opponent is forever disadvantaged by timezone. And if GA cycles don’t rotate through different timezones, it is plain unfair to those who live where GA ends at 2-6am.

Oh and maybe your opponents didnt wait that long because u know, perhaps GA ends at 5am for them so they don’t have much of a choice? Nice try.

There is always a choice. Yes it is a strategy, just because one person may not be able to utilize it due to external factors doesnt change that fact.

How is waiting until the end a strategy? Shouldn't you be trying to clear the opponent's side and get as many points as possible doing so? What the other guy is (not) doing has no bearing on trying to do your best.

I will generally wait, but slowly clear out the more difficult teams. Saving the "easier" ones in case I dont clear on the first try to maybe make up points. But if you want to wait and see how your opponent does, that can be helpful. There is much less stress if they hit one or multiple 2s or possibly a 3.

First focus should always be a clean wins, but if I need the extra point or 2, i will go in with a man down when i can. I wouldnt normally do that if i didnt know if would give me a win. The risk vs reward is not great enough to do that for "no reason".

So having a strategy based on your opponent being ALWAYS forced to attack early because of his timezone is a strategy? Well done. I commend your deep thinking and understanding. Why not develop a strategy based on not knowing how many points your opponent scored? You clearly just want an advantage that some others will PERMANENTLY not have because GA does not rotate through time zones. Why not try setting your arena payout to 3am everyday? Then u can do fleet at 4am too! Can’t snipe? Too bad, poor strategy.

no one knows when their opponent is going to attack... again, that how chicken works, you dont know what the other person is going to do.

I base my attacks on what i can and want to do, if i see a score and i can beat it I will try, but if i dont see a score , i do what i can to put up the best numbers.

my strategy is more based on what i see in there roster. but i'm not going to put down someone elses strategy if thats what they want to to do.
