Im with Nikoms. It sounded so good at first glance, but by running the meta, I can get to higher spots for payout + I drop less, so whats the point of even trying to do any different.
Neither of the statements after your but is true. This fleet holds well on Defense and I took 1st with it. So you can climb as high as you want with it, and it really shouldn't fall far on defense either because most fleets couldn't handle the damage it can dole out. They certainly can't match it.
If you don't want to run it for some reason or another, cool, but the reasons you gave aren't really true so I had to say something.
He's probably saying that he drops so much by not running meta that he can't climb high enough/fast enough to get top spots for payout. It's just easier to run what everyone else is in 2.0 because that way you're not a target.
I'd love to see a video of your team performing on defense, though I know that is certainly going to be hard to come by. But if it's easier to face on defense than a standard Biggs + TIEs team then it will drop. And it will drop hard. Depending on the shard you could drop down to 100 or so for simply just not having the same team as everyone else.
Honestly the strongest defensive teams I've faced have either Bistan in their starting line-up or Sun Fac, and mostly have Tarkin's capital ship. The tm gain on ship death for their whole fleet is pretty devastating. Damage output per turn is one thing, but how many turns your fleet takes is another way to out DPS your enemy.
