A big part of Brawler Battleship playstyle is preserving your health in the early game until the enemies are thinned out a bit. Then you can use your large healthpool and heavy armor to force situations.

Ranked starts with fewer enemies by default, so it makes it easier to reach that "mid/late-game" feel of fewer-ships to focus you when being aggressive.
