I have seen the posts where peolpe have done this in practise, usually because the tournament is closing to an end, and even though the mathematics seem to suggest that 8 battles should be enough (114%), I'm sure I've read where it took some people 20 battles, though I can't be sure if that is an exaggeration. Has anyone reading had practical experience using the tactic, how many battles at most to clear on opponent?

With regards to compound chances, this is not a guarantee, merely a reflection of how good a chance over 8 battles your dragons should be doing mathematically. Each individual attack has less than 10% chance of a critical, with 3 attacks (1 battle) resulting in an overall chance of 10%

Maybe the chance for a level 1 common dragon defeating another in one battle is less than 10%?
