We had that with Denial.

People running some alliances are simply too bitter, or don't actually play the game anymore, so they have no clue what its really like. They base all of their decisions only on the past, and not on the present/future. The HC won't talk to their own players about anything, so they become unhappy and stop caring. As a result they all end up failing. Denial could beat ASC, but the rest of planetarion doesn't want that.

CBA is right to an extent that it would take multi alliance teamwork to dethrone ASC. To claim anything else is stupid. (Even ASC had allies last round.) But that is not going to happen, now is it? The one thing missing from CBA's formula is the way to keep all opposition to ASC happy, including the alliance "taking the hit." It is 100% doable, but again, its not what other alliances actually want. (And you can change out Denial for Omen or any other alliance, the point remains the same.)

Until they can change, ASC will keep winning.
