You're missing the point - we all know how to defeat it. But it's boring. And it's rare that the majority of players will adopt an anti-153 style and will instead ignore it and go about their turning fights. Which means the 153 just picks people off. Hence, cheap.

BNZ tactics aren't all that bad, it doesn't take very long to disengage and gain some altitude before re-engaging.I'm not so sure about you guys but I get a kick from doing this- I can spend 20-ish minutes stalking a single enemy and not get bored.I find entering a turning battle is very boring and often deadly(for me),I usually leave the fight with more holes than swiss cheese.
