If you're faced w/ a level 10 3K+ Blissey gym who are you taking? (your own specific strategy time or potion efficiency)
If you're going to say I'll pass to save on time don't respond.
I would start off w/ a suicide squad: leadoff: FS/OH Flareon, mid rotation: 2 FS/FT Flareon, 1 E/OH Flareon, closer: B/HP Gary. (litmus test squad I have to see which ones have DG so I can avoid using Nite against those)
My 6 would be: lead off: DB/DP Dragonite, mid rotational grinders: C/DP Champ, B/C Tyranitar, and DT/O Dragonite, and my closer would be DB/DP Dragonite.

I run stuff like you do as my exploratory group but it varies depending on what's in gyms or available.
Then I run some mix of a set of 3300ish Dragons with DT/H, DT/H, DT/HB, DB/DC, DB/DC, and I'm adding a Tyranitar with B/SE this week. I have had no luck with Machamp yet and it really irritates me.
I fight Blissey towers everyday but not those that are held by only 3k ones. Respect those and leave them be, there are alot better things to do with your time.
For those with 10x Blisseys with the top few at 3k and the rest below there is only 1 lineup that i can reliably use to get through them, 2x B/SE Tyranitar, 1x B/C Tyranitar, 2x FF Machamp and 1xDB/DC Dragonite.
Dude,
we are not talking about beating one random blissey in a gym, we are talking taking on 10 blesseys stacked on top of each other.
Until you are surrounded by every gym in your area filled with 10 blesseys you don't know the horror.
I for one have no interest in such boring elongated battles. It really makes me want to quit the game.
B/SE Tyranitar is the best option against the HB and P Blisseys since Tyranitar resists every Blissey attack except for DG. Expect to get through 2+ Blisseys per B/SE Tyranitar, if you are skilled at dodging and dodge everything.
DG Blisseys should be by far the most troubling ones. You won't be able to get through 2+ of them per attacker, like the HB and P ones, but you should be able to get through 1 with HP remaining. And there isn't an obvious choice for attacker. Machamp, Flareon, Dragonite, and Tyranitar are all good choices with different advantages and disadvantages.
Also note that the Blissey battles will be tremendously easier with far more attacker lineup options, if you battle with a friend or small group instead of solo.
If I was to do it on solo I would ideally want to moderately be well stocked with revives & potions so that's there's no worry about that. I'd then select the six-pack I feel can take a Blissey gym apart the fastest because speed is an issue so as not to timeout. I'm fortunate because I'm high level and subscribe to the school of thought that maxing out powerful or good mons is a goal. Therefore, my six pack includes a 3.4k D'nite with DB/DC, a 3.5k Tyrant with B/SE, a couple of 3.2k Snorlax with L/HB. I'd also maybe include a 3.1k Gyarados with B/DP, which I've found surprisingly effective, and perhaps another with DT/Outrage. Another option is a 3.1k D'nite with DT/H. This team would cut through several Blissey, perhaps 6-8 or so, depending on their movesets. It wouldn't matter if I don't beat the ten right off because defeating several will drag the prestige down. This is possibly a battle of attrition, but I'd like to see such a thing, it'd bea real challenge. Another team recently put up a lvl 10 gym in my area, perhaps for my benefit, filled with Snorlax and 2 or 3 Blissey. That was much easier because the Rhydon wall beats Snorlax, but Blissey impose a time constraint, so power, speed and sacrifice is the answer. Even beating 2 at a time drags the gym down, therefore try some of your mons. Given time and sufficient revives and posts anyone could probably take down such a gym, so long as you can get past the timeout barrier.
I would not be able to beat it for sure, but this is my best lineup for that:
C/CC Machamp - to gain confidence :); I can do it
DB/DC - to keep my confidence - here I hope to be deep into 3rd Blissey
C/FS Espeon or C/P Exe - hmm, maybe I get lucky and finish the 4th one
HP Vap lvl 35.5 - you can beat everything, confidence back :) - fuck, I took a Psychic. Don't worry, Vape can deal with it; 5th down, one quarter into 6th;
AT Vap or DT/Hp Gya - common, don't miss the special dodge again, and here I am almost half of 7th one
HP Vap lvl 30 or SW/O Dragonite (don't have idea how it fights, I power up just before putting him on top of a stable gym :(; still there after 3 weeks ) - 7th down. Better luck next time, rearrange, maybe get 8 down :).
Or try KC/CC Machamp on the mix, replacing smaller Vap or Espeon/Exe.
