Unpopular Opinion

Welll i suppose he didn't met bistan u-wing in starting lineup with maxed pilots some times that team obliterates double tank milf team i run :(
About strategy well that works against poorly geared pilots and low star ships, try using that strategy on 7 stared ships with g12+5/g13 full zeta pilots with 6e mods on them and tell us how it went please :)

Well I consistently go against 7* G12 with zeta teams with power levels sitting anywhere between 420k-470k. I do struggle with Bistan uwing in the starting lineup, but it’s not impossible. The current meta top power is about 498-500k so 30k power isn’t going to make that much of a difference in terms of “scale” and I stopped commenting because I’ve come to realize that no one is even going to try the different strategy, because “I’m not worthy of the meta conversation.” So really no one here is even worth arguing with.

Nothing is truly "impossible" because HMF team heavily relied on random assists. If they are unlucky you can beat them, if you are unlucky your fleet will be blown up right from the start. And total fleet power is completely irrelevant when you speak about HMF setups, 250K fleet can be consistently better than 450K one. It sometimes even worthy not to put full reinforcements so AI couldn't call wrong ships.


Also there is another huge factor - shard activity. On shard with low competition and more or less even payout time distribution you may be able to crawl to 1st place without HMF just because almost no one will attack you. On highly active shard anything but top-end HMF may be thrown out of top 200 every day. Your personal experience can't be extrapolated really.

Probably a newer shard where most milf fleets aren't complete with full rebel ships minus 1 or 2. My lower acct which was started in june of 18 (I gave it away at 2.2mil drevan and so on) players could beat m i l f fleets but no one had max fleet. On my 5mil gp shard that fleet wouldn't crack top 100. Good that as a newer player he found something that works but ya better get with the meta or you'll disappear and complain with the rest of em. Yes there are exceptions that can beat max milf fleets but it is not what he is using at all. 5* ships g9 pilots is a new acct. Fairly new anyway.
