You naysayers don't know what you are talking about, but it is also the OP's fault for bringing up irrelevant stats. The number of ship battles is the important part here.
The main issue is that the OP is only talking about his top 50. I'm in another day 1 fleet shard that is definitely one of the more competitive ones, but the competition only gets driven down so far. Our top 50 is pretty much equivalent to that of the split up mega shards, however our 50-100 range is likely significantly weaker. I have a guildmate in one of the split shards who also has a 7* GK at relic 7 (with r5-7 pilots all the way through) who struggles to maintain the top 100. The fact of the matter is that the mega shard that was split has the top 50's competitiveness all the way down through the top 200, maybe more, whereas most of other shards (like mine) where it's still stiff competition in the top 50, the competition is much weaker by the time you're out of the top 100.
