Best way I have found is silencer, tfp and fotfp. Use silencer to stun vader then finish him off with the others. Bring on vader as reinforcement use his special to stop dodge on tfp. Then finish them off. Can win most battles within 1 min that way. Took me a while to figure out but works for me.

The meta is vader tfp biggs.

For now. These ships were already meta before so it's easy to just plug them right in. Time will tell if they actually stick.

Its not a matter of time, but if theres any fleet compositions that can reliable beat the biggs vader tfp lineup (assuming same conditions). No such teams were found in the past month, so the meta is decided for now.
The meta might change in the future, but that will be made possible only if CG alters the ship abilities/stats/launches new ones.

I'm not sure if you can assume the meta is always efficient and always represents the optimal line up at any given time. There are other factors at play, don't you think? One factor I can see is the current meta in Ships 2.0 possibly originated from the meta in Ships 1.0. Most people already made the massive investment in DV, ITF, Biggs, so why not continue to roll with them? A second possible factor for an inefficient meta is the amount of investment to switch out ships. You have to max a pilot with zetas, you have to max stars on both toons & ships, you have to max abilities on ships, and finally you have to max reinforcement ability. It takes 1 1/2 to 2 weeks to get the final lvl 8 on omegas for ships, so switching takes time. The meta in ships 2.0, in my opinion, hasn't been widely discovered, although a few adventurous gamers letting their creative minds take over have begun to see success with alternative fleets.
