IN SPITE OF GROSS FALLACIES in blitz, i have developed 14 crews(super elites with some hero fillins) to level 61( 7 SS and 7 BB ).  i am currently working on finishing 10-15 super elite FPs, TBs, and DBs to that level 61 blitz 'graduation'.

there are currently, and for a long time, many problems in blitzkrieg, both PLAYER initiated and some allowed by Kupaisky.

ABING is quite rampant.  
STACKING to assure certain team combinations(we all know that the randomness in splits is not so random and teams can be rigged to a certain degree )  is quite common.  
TEAMKILL occurs often, even without 'justification', with little or no penalty(used to be an auto kick from battle), especially with regard to the '5 minute time requirement' in event and bonus rewards.

regarding game mechanics(Kupaisky)...
8-9 ships at start often results in a 5-3 or even 6-3 split.
2 CA and 2 CL present sometimes creates a 2 CA VS. 2 CL split (plus other ships, of course).
THE WORST PROBLEMS are Geobukseon(turtleship), Black Pearl(pirate ship), and Project X-D(duck), all of which must be purchased hence PAY TO WIN!!

*** the first 2 are classed as FF, with extremely high CA level damage defense points-the Pearl having 10,000!

***all 3 do ridiculous damage upon hitting, have TINY hit boxes when attacked, ludicrous speed and overheat, and with small crews(BO and Gunners) can add astronomical belt/armor!

***teams with just one of these 3 ships are virtually assured of victory due to imbalance.
these 3  used to be banned from blitzkrieg, and BBs allowed if at level.  NOW, all BBs are banned and these 3 granted entry into blitzkrieg.  truthfully, most low-level BBs could not even compete with these 3 ships!

**consider on split, for instance, a Pearl, a Turtle, and 2 normal FFs with both normal FFs going to one team...add a Duck and a normal CA with the normal CA joining the normal FFs...and these ships are often STACKED to get exactly that result on split, game after game...how many ways can you say SCREWED!

i wonder often how many new players have quit the game in frustration because of rampant use of these VERY EXPENSIVE ships that most people can not afford.

even with the bonuses in blitz,  i'll probably never come back after i finish getting these last few super elite sailors to lvl 61.  will be time to continue levelling them anyway.  i have stayed only because the lvl 61 cutoff helps balance the levels of my crews.  and blitz has become drudgery with these ships allowed, instead of occasional fun away from GB.
