Yeah, all these plans seems like Merit eaters. I had a 40 and 60 streak that dropped one single 20 Chroniton package. Tons of 5* trainers though.
I rather refresh as little as possible so I just load up on the free Merits get what I need from the faction shops.
you have to combine this strategy with deliberate tanking. always, always go for the 10 trophy fight, even if it’s harder than the 250 trophy fight. you can do that up until the very last session or two, and still be able to recover your rank at the end. staying the lowest possible rank throughout most of the gauntlet is the key here.
See, the “even if its harder” aspect of this strategy is where I don’t think you’re actually getting the benefit you think you’re getting.
Basically, your goal is to maintain long streaks. Reasonable. You facilitate this process by leaving a hole in your crew so you lose points so you can get “easier” matchups. Still with you. But then you go with harder matchups where you have a higher probability of losing in order to keep your score low.
This is completely counter to your entire strategy. If you’re trying to maintain a streak, you should be going for guaranteed shots; NOT harder shots because they give you less points.
Even with ALL 99% probability wins, you only have a 50% shot of your streak going beyond 70. Your expected streak drops all the way to 27 with a 97.5% probability. It just seems like you’re needlessly handicapping yourself for next to no gain and even taking excessive risks with no tangible benefit.
That said, I’ll take the free wins in my gauntlet and encourage every other person to take part in this strategy.
