There is no way. Play with fighter setups always and use them, atleast that way you are safe against lower tier US fighters. For the same and higher tier US fighters, you cannot win. Just try to outsmart the enemy CV, go where he doesn't expect.

Hotspot is an interesting map. Unless you're playing as a CV and spawn in the south end of the map. If you stay at the spawn, you will get flanked from both sides, if you go forward with the fleet, you will get shot at with the fleet.

Frustrating how I kept checking the WoWS website for the past couple of years and when the beta applications open up I miss it completely.

I hesitate to use the word "team", but if you're in a team of 15 players and the entire objective is to beat the other team, then why is "two coordinated carriers are OP" a valid reason to prevent them joining a division together? Surely this kind of teamwork should be encouraged. If ships are so helpless toward multiple squadrons of aircraft then there's clearly an issue. Perhaps the AA system needs to be revised, or maybe there should be an option for the player to control the AA guns.
