Ultra League is driving me crazy. This whole season has been nothing but pain, and I have no idea what to use against tankers in any of the leagues. It seems like every set I get trashed by 1-2 lvl. 50 legendaries and it doesn't matter if I'm in tanker elo or pushing ace rank. I miss when I could run whatever the fuck I wanted as long as it was in the top 30 for the league/cup and I'd usually get consistent 5-0s even against negative leads. This entire season I've felt blessed if I don't get completely shut out by the coinflip lead-swap.
