The problem with a large event like Summer is you have no choice.

Yeah sure you can like some ships over others, but to face a large scale event you just simply need everyone. (at least in BB/CV terms)

Lets takl about CV first, the common ones are Akagi, Kaga, Hiryuu, Souryuu, Shoukaku and Zuikaku.

Taihou is LSC only, and Unryuu class are either impossible to get (Amagi/Kasuargi) or very very hard (Unryuu drops in 6-3, but that map is ridicolously hard to farm) They also need BP to become useful. (even then still weaker than other CVs)

So If event locks 1 Carrier fleet, there goes 4 CV. Most likley you will need 1-2 CVs for other maps too.

You see my point? You just need to train all the 6 CVs you can get your hands on. You have no option.

BB is slightly better, but you are really looking at 8, 4 Kognou, 2 Fusou, 2 Nagato class. Yamato class are LSC only, Isse class are just weak, and other Foreign BB are very hard to get (or impossible) right now.

So again, you really only have 8 BB. Consider 2 BB is used even in a Carrier fleet, 4 BB in a normal BB combined fleet.

And in general you need to bring a BB for each map (for 2 round shelling)

You again just dont have much choice in this regard.

Yeah you can get away in normal maps, because they have no ship lock. But in event. You simply need more depth.

Thats why event is the only way to test your fleet.
