I never assumed it was hard to play - just that it's meant to be slightly more difficult to play well because you're supposedly relying on other people's failings to develop a solid fleet, and the default Zik fleet isn't supposed to be able to utterly pwn on its own. Zik last round had a DE fleet that could land comfortably on most of the common anti-DE def without help, and def ships that could just sit at home and prevent inc without needing any other ships at all. It's no real surprise that good Zik players did well.
