You're looking at a very narrow point of view, Obsidian/ Darkside aren't 'god' gangs. I personally have even solo'd darkside and held the base with 2 random people for a few minutes before they called on their allies. Them being able to call for help is the only thing that allows them to maintain their numbers. In the gang fortress they won't be able to do that.

Darkside won't be able to help Obsidian because they'll be trying to defend their own base, same for Obsidian. There will be too much competition for them to be able to 'help' each other so there won't be any alliances
Even without allies darkside and obs can both get the best players to take their main tag they would still hold it anyway the best players are generally innactive becusse they are now grown up but they will come back like for wars a week or 2 to secure the bases.

You don't have to have hours already to win gang points, just earn the most hours in 3 months, not overall. Which means you might get sparring gangs basing for 6 months a year JUST to get gang points so that they can get the gang point rewards, and not need to base a full 2k hours to get anything
There arent enough players to keep it competitive people rather join the gangs winning then work hard for themselves.
