Win Levi Mirrors Today.

There are way too many threads complaining about Levi mirrors. I get that most of us don't have time to theory craft -- I usually don't. I use others' solutions more than I use my own when it comes to raids and new metas. But instead of complaining FIRST, a good idea would be to take that time and search your favourite Discord or YouTube sources for a way to win these fights. If you do an honest search and can't find help, or if you use the suggestions and they don't work for you, by all means, complain.

That said, if you complain instead of finding ways to win, that only hurts you. 

So here's one system I found for winning Levi mirrors after the TIE Dagger update. It works perfectly for me -- 100% win rate so far, though admittedly the total sample size is still low. It comes from either Scrybe or Bit Dynasty, I forget which. 

The problem in past battles was that Sith Fighter feeds TM to the remainder of the team, giving you a chance to get far ahead or to fall far behind depending on the opening. The Dagger prevents TM gain, so people who were relying on having the fastest possible Sith Fighter and then making use of that TM train are denied their familiar path to victory. 

But there's another way. The Levi must use Sabotage The Hangars before being eligible to use their Ult. And they must score 15 debuffs before they can use STH. 

With TM gain off the table, the best solution found so far is to deny the enemy any debuffs, thus denying them access to STH, which prevents their Ult while allowing you to bring in all your reinforcements, use your Ult, set to Auto, and win. 

Starting fleet: Levi (CS), TIE Dagger, Fury Interceptor, Mk6 Interceptor. 

Strategy: Use Mk6 Int's 3rd ability -- the one that grants AoE Tenacity UP -- on its first turn. Immediately after that, use Fury's mass assist to boost Mk6's survivability (it gains 10 stacks if it uses a basic while under 10 stacks). 

You will apply debuffs while your opponent does not. 

DO NOT use the Fury mass assist or any AoE abilities unless the ship has TenUP. Assuming that the opponent has TIE Bomber in their lineup, there is a passive chance to inflict Thermals (which count as debuffs) every time you damage any of their Sith ships. 

You will inflict debuffs, your enemy will not. You will be able to use Sabotage the Hangars, the enemy will not. You will reach Ult, the enemy will not. 

After using Ult, press Auto and win. 

The strategy is extremely forgiving. All you have to do is keep Mk6 alive to use its TenUP ability twice, and I've never had a problem with that. 

If anyone has another reliable strategy for mirrors, please add it in the comments below. We don't need all the repeat threads complaining about mirrors, we just need to educate the community on how to win.

    Maybe CG should hire you to do actual testing then, since none of their employees currently do?

    People thought that Punishing One was going to make Profundity irrelevant.  The "fix" of making the Dagger boost to counter Executor with Punishing One essentially made Profundity relevant again as it is the best Leviathan counter now.  "Balance has been restored." 

  • The tactics are good if all your pilots are in R9. But if they are in R7 or lower, then there is not enough time.

  • I am in a competitive fleet shard where you easily climb 20-30 spots every day to get to 1 and this is not enjoyable.  Regardless if you use mirror, Profundity, Executor, there too much variables between all the counters and nothing is consistent.  We have players running 10 battles to move 20 spots.  Profundity can be my most consistent counter but it relies on crits and assists.  I do not recommend the MK6 starting only because you have a high probability of timing out.  It is very frustrating, I envy those in a dead fleet shard.

  • Tried it twice.
    Timed out twice.
    Next.
    The worst part is, in one of these two tries, I was going first. -_-

  • this doesnt work anymore out of the blue. My last 5 attempts with this counter have failed miserably as they went first and got to ultimate first..... CG needs to fix this as this is horrible
