I never understood, how does the AI determine the order in which to call reinforcements?

It seems to prioritize tanks if you have 1 or less on the field. It might also be taking into account health of the tank on the field (ie if HT looks good, don’t call a tank, if it doesn’t, call a tank)? And also maybe looks at health pool of tanks on the bench?

I mention that last part because I recently started running Arc170 on the bench in GAC and it looks like it gets called out first ahead of Slave 1 every time so far.

Who knows but you can win due to two AI "always" things

AI mass attacks which is a mistake
AI calls Slave 1 which is a mistake

AI may mess other things up but you don't have to.

It can still go wrong but you don't do mass first and you do EH first and you should be good a very high % of time, even 5* vs 7*. The RNG is comically overdone. You do NEED XB faster than RC though.

As an aside I could take no 1 5* vs 7*, it was flaky though and people I avoided. There is still the odd one I avoid (and TBH not figured out how it works why) but 95% win rate I think assuming I avoid people like that. Little to no RNG. My Piett is r8 not 9 btw.

Also - how strong d

Why not open up with the Mass Swarm?

Yeah for GAC defence no point using Ebon Hawk as AI just isn't going to call it anyway. At least not until 3rd or 4th.

If the enemy has moved first with their swarm you should definitely not open up with your mass swarm.

What do you open up with, then?

I’m using IG as my first reinforce and Slave 1 as my second, and I can usually beat any non-7-star Executor. And if I lose it’s because I time out vs their HT. I’ll work on the EH but idk what else I’d do strategy wise.
