| Tournament tactics | |

| Skirata here. Here's what I do in tournaments, in case planning | |
| like this helps y'all. | |
| I've found that the longer the tournament runs, the more the top | |
| ranks fill with power players, so your best chance for early, | |
| easy fights is early, not late. | |
| Rank your squads from weakest to strongest, and use them first | |
| to last. Having four squads fight 5 each costs 14k ally points | |
| ... having just one squad fight 20 costs 123k, so use all you | |
| have. 6*, G8, L80, 1-2* mods with synergy is all you need for a | |
| b-lister. I plan to have eight squads ... if they all fight 5 | |
| times, that's 28k, leaving 97.5k for my top 3 to fight 6 more | |
| times each, and 15k for my next two to fight 2 more each. | |
| That's 62 total fights, which got me Jyn Erso last tournament. | |
| From weakest to strongest I have: | |
| Use as 100/250 Ally points if possible | |
| Phasma DPS (Rey, Leia, GS, Chewie as tank) 32k [Use only on | |
| rabbits, less than 33k Power] | |
| Palpatine Empire (RG, Vader, Tusken Raider, Cad Bane) 33k [vs > | |
| 34k Power, Rebels, Jedi] | |
| Nebit Jawas (other four) 35k [vs > 36k Power, 34k Droids] | |
| Use as 100/250/500 Ally points if possible | |
| QGJ Jedi (Yoda, Ahsoka, JC, IGD) 38k [vs > 38k Power, 38k | |
| Empire] | |
| Ventress Nightsisters (Daka, Initiate, Talia, Fives) 42k [vs > | |
| 40k Power low DPS teams] | |
| Use as 100/250/500/750/1000 if possible | |
| Teebo ewoks (other three plus Dengar) 40k [vs Counter teams, | |
| Jawas] | |
| HK-47 droids 42k (IG triplets, Poggle) | |
| Wedge/Lando meta 46k (Wiggsdo, JKA, STHan) | |
| Note most of these teams are straight translations of | |
| Rancor/Tank teams (the Nightsisters were my early Arena/GW | |
| squad, a pet project. | |

| good advice, much like Jyn I plan on just sending a small force | |
| to get a few shards, I am saving for the vader ship. with all | |
| these rapid fire tournaments you really only have 1-2 good runs | |
| in you, and my hope is that generally people care less about | |
| ships, if I can somehow get a 5* tie advanced I will be | |
| ecstatic. Plus the high ranks on that get a couple million | |
| potentially in fleet credits, which unlike regular credits are | |
| actually a huge deal lol | |

| I've never seen less than a 30k powered team in any of my | |
| tournament battles :( | |

| Vader I have had the same experience as you. No matter when I | |
| enter a tournament the weakest teams I see still have 30-35K | |
| power. I am really just happy when I see non-meta teams. | |
| I like your advice Skirata. The only thing that I have to add is | |
| there seems to be some evidence that the latter you join the | |
| easier the shard you are in might be. Obviously this only will | |
| be true if the past trends stay, but I entered with about 14 | |
| hours left and am holding 15th place right now with only | |
| spending about 130K ally coins. This was much easier than the | |
| other tourney where I entered right when it started. Not enough | |
| evidence to know if this was luck or not, but it seems to be the | |
| thought on reddit as well. | |
| I used similar teams as Skirata did but basically used each team | |
| until it could no longer win, which unfortunately was only about | |
| 3 times for most of the bottom ones. | |

| Lowest power I've ever seen was 29k. My tourney shards usually | |
| look a lot like the competition I face in arena - 35k-40k rebel | |
| & droid teams, 40k-47k grab bag teams. | |
| I've been focusing primarily on staying in the top 1000 in each | |
| tournament. With the new 24 hour format, this usually costs me | |
| around 30k ally points and nets me a raid chest, omegas, and | |
| 1.5m+ credits. That's a pretty damn good exchange. | |

| When does it sort you? When you log into the game? | |

| Nate, you are not sorted until you log into the tournament. My | |
| current working theory is later is better. | |
