I might have been more aggravated about the enemy Guinan winning with 5 Crits versus your six. That would irk me more than if it were 6 to 6!!!!!!
Not pictured: my Guinan was fatigued by 1 round. I expected to lose, but hey, with 65% crit, you never know! It was just unbelievable to watch that battle as it was a Critapalooza!
Locutus, once fatigued, at 5% vs the enemy Guinan at 45%.
For all those feeling like the odds are stacked against you, I can only highly recommend going for battles you clearly expect to fail. It really calibrates your perception.
Since day 1 of the gauntlet, Mirror Phlox is the only character of mine who has ever gotten completely tired before losing a battle. I suppose I could have better luck doing that if I were to use merit refreshes...still, he’s still useful these days.
Haven't seen a 2 before. Just glad that it worked in my favour.
2s happen when you have a single skill and the battle is tied after the first five rolls. It suggests (but in no way confirms*) that the matching skill is rolled first even if it is displayed second, then you get zeroes or ones (or a two) for the skill that character does not have.
*The only way I can think of to disprove the idea that non-matching skills are always rolled second would be if your crew had zeroes and/or ones for the non-matching skill and one point higher than the max possible roll for the other skill.

I'm in a Guinan 65% round now. My favorite one. I don't think I have too many that match 65% in other combos.

Normally I would be a little put off by B schedule getting yet another Guinan gauntlet but I have to say that it’s been fun beating up on Minuet with Fierce Guinan. I’ve gotten a number of DIP/SEC matches already and it seems almost every one has a sea of Bartender Guinans with an island of Minuet that I can conquer.

My Fierce is in, too. She slammed out a couple Wins that looked bad match ups without the 45% Crits.

I don't have screenshots, but I had a Med/Sci match up between my twice exhausted Defensive Phlox versus a full strength Surak. I won and got an error about my internet connection. I retried the battle and lost by over 1500 points. That one counted.
Sunday Evening I received Armus in a streak box. Already had him immortalized, and was holding opening boxes until after the event ended. I had to wait for 9 hours after the event to claim mine so I could double up on La Rouque
Took a while and i actually finished 1st as well but only once in 20k rounds
I was just thinking about this achievement this afternoon when I woke up, as I'm focusing on achieving this ASAP (within reason). I am so unbelievably tired of getting my face smashed in by one Locutus after another that I have made acquiring my own copy a priority, hence I've been spending merits regularly to reset match ups to allow my fatigued crew to get better odds to run them more times to run up my total rounds higher, and I've even taken to occasionally spending the 30 dilithiun to refresh exhausted crew just to run them a few more times to increase my total rounds.
When I finally get to 20,000 my current plan is to not open ANY packs or in any other way risk acquiring a 5* crew to keep my DYC open, and when I get my copy of Locutus I'm doing the DYC and leveling them BOTH so I will have TWO Locutuses!
I don't really press in the gauntlet anymore because typically rng is not on your side as an attacker. However, sometimes rng overcompensates and this happens...

mirror Phlox is useful I guess.

The bug is clearly not fixed, Armus just dropped a second time.
