Supposedly best one is to put all teams on top starting spot. Each squad has then 2 chances to move to right circle, so 75% chance. You also get more chests, and few passes over 4 trophies breads.

I tested also putting all teams on middle starting spot, but as long as you remove RNG of squads reaching farm rings, as that starting spot is directly connected with left circle. That circle has only 5 16-trophy burgers and 10 8-trophy rolls, whereas right circle has 10 16-trophy burgers and 4 8-trophy rolls - AKA left circle is worse to farm.

I would agree that 5 on the bottom is probably the worst.
I've had better luck with all in the middle than all in the top. Yes, the circles are less efficient on the left side than the right, but all units end up on circles; starting at the top I always have a couple of units bypass the circles completely.
My best 5 middle is about 5600, worst is probably around 4800, typical is 5000-5200.
I've done fewer runs 5 top, but I think best was about the same, worst was 4200 or so, typical was more like 4700-4900. Not the hugest of differences but enough.
