I have Thrawn at 5*. I have no other good DS ships but Vader. I hover 40-60 in fleet. All but 1 of my top 50 is Thrawn.I just dont like running Meta. Any other good fleets? Im running Home 1, both Phoenix, Biggs and Bistan with Either Boba Resistance X, JC and Ashoka off the bench. My Bistan and resistance X are only 5 star. Rest are 7. Any suggestiins that do t involve Biggs + DS ships? 5s isnt close for me.

Nope.. thrawn, biggs+ds ships is the meta now.If u want to stay in top 40-60, keep using non-meta fleet. But if u want get to top 20, meta is the answer :grimace:

Unfortunately no,Thrawn has the best ship period. You can probably hold rank in the hundreds with a Tarkin fleet but to get anywhere near the top you need Thrawn.

I regularly top 20 against thrawn and tarkin fleets using an Ackbar assist fleet. Object is to knock out Biggs and one or two of their big damage dealers on the first turn...

My buddy places top 20 every day (can place first if he has time for the battles) with a Tarkin fleet. He uses Tarkin (C), FO TIE, TIE Fighter, TIE Advanced, TIE Reaper, Biggs with the other three X-Wings off the bench.Here's a couple in the top 20 that are non-Tarkin and non-Thrawn just to give you ideas:Ackbar (C): Ghost, Phantom, Boba, Biggs, Vader --- Bench: Falcon, Wedge, FO TIEMace (C): Biggs, Vader, Slave I, FO TIE, Fives --- Bench: TIE Fighter, Ahsoka, Jedi ConsularI bet you could run a Mace fleet with the right Republic ships, but there aren't many people who G12 Jedi Consular, Ahsoka, Plo Koon, or Clone Sergeant.

Any useful non-Thrawn non-empire Fleets?

Here's a couple in the top 20 that are non-Tarkin and non-Thrawn just to give you ideas:

Ackbar (C): Ghost, Phantom, Boba, Biggs, Vader --- Bench: Falcon, Wedge, FO TIE
Mace (C): Biggs, Vader, Slave I, FO TIE, Fives --- Bench: TIE Fighter, Ahsoka, Jedi Consular

I bet you could run a Mace fleet with the right Republic ships, but there aren't many people who G12 Jedi Consular, Ahsoka, Plo Koon, or Clone Sergeant.

Endurance fleets are great on offense, due to the huge TM bonus it gets from valor and the fairly frequent damage immunity to the whole fleet. It can take out even good Chimaera/Executrix fleets.

However, it's weak on defense.

Unfortunately if you run anything but Chimera you paint a big red bullseye on your fleet. Endurance can beat all other cap ship leads pretty easily, but you'll get attacked unmercilessly for standing out. Executrix holds slightly better, and home1 somewhat worse. All are viable on offense but the AI really limits their defense.

Home 1 rebels and mace led clones/Jedi are both solid synergy squads, and you’ll use both in TW so feel free to put recourses into them. You can certainly climb with any of them, but you need solid focus on synergy, and will have less margin for RNG to bust your match.

On defense however, you will be targeted constantly being the only non-Chimaera top 50. Expect major drops every day.

Lowest I drop is low 30s... Usually it's more like low 20s.
