Overcrowded Fleet Arena

Whale harder

I will trade you my arena.

Have you thought about being polite and saying, "Excuse me."? People these days man.... So much snowflake they can even ask for people to move outta the way.

I have a mostly high relic GR fleet that is struggling to make top 100, in comparison, guildmates from around the same age are still dealing with Chimeras in the top 20-50.

This doesn't seem fair right?

Right! So wait until they lower the crystal output for squad and fleet arena and they gonna switch it over to something else which will be fair.

I know it'll be something bad, but go for it.

Also didn't Devs split up arenas in the past? Or was that a special whale case scenario?

One fleet arena was split in two. Special scenario. Only happened this once.

Have you experimented with different starting lineups? HT and JKA will always start, but 5s or AT or Rex as the third can change the turn order in your favor. It helps if you can get your JKA to go first and getting GKs aoe daze off first is a nice bonus.
Also, if you’re that far back it might be beneficial to spend on a couple refreshes so you’re not fighting the same people and find a sweet spot where you don’t get rolled back. I can only speak for my own shard, but I don’t see a lot of movement of different players in the top 20.

before I can give specific advise, I’d have to know what fleet you’re using and what your opponents have. One of the biggest hurdles is star level to your negotiator. If their negotiator outstars yours, theirs is likely faster and you will have an uphill battle since generally the first to use mobilize wins in mirror matches. There are some tricks you can use to get yours off first, but it requires a close speed gap and for your JKA/Fives to outspeed their negotiator. If they can, open up with Fives’ special then JKA’s basic on HT. If you give valor to HT (who should go before their negotiator after their HT hits your JKA), your negotiator will go before theirs and the battle will be a lot easier. If your toons aren’t fast enough to make their happen, then you’re likely getting outclassed in either gear or stars.

ha. I was just making the post that your team is "mostly" high-relic (and higher=better). For actual team advice as others said it would help to post the team/levels/starting v RI/etc

Malevolence is good agianst them too. I think its abit easier for offense negotiator to win agianst though. Really depends on opponents mine isn't fully complete or many relics so can struggle or fail when opponents are, but 50-100k above my team pwr is atleast 50/50 if not greater (depending on opponents lineups)

Ships is a part of the game that has never had a lot of development or need until recently.

Because of this there are loads of people who never cared about fleet. From any era there will be shards that are super dead, and some that are super competitive. It's all about when you happened to hit 60 in relation to others in that time period and nothing else.

As far as GR fleets go the a-number one most important thing your fleet can have is a high relic maxed out JKA/ETA2.

You don't even need Hound's Tooth. I take first every day I try to without hound's tooth in my fleet at all and never drop out of the top 20. Now I am on a less competitive shard than some, but what works works.


Definitely agree about buying refreshes to climb up higher. The higher in ranks you go the shorter ahead you can be seen. At rank 7 I can be hit by exactly 4 people. At rank 200 I can be hit by something like 30 people.

Spending on refreshes to climb as high as you can is pretty likely to actually save you crystals in the long run simply because you will decrease how much you get hit by decreasing the amount of people you are exposed to. They can't hit you if they can't see you.
