yep, what Zayler said basically. the undivided thing seems to be a common gripe due to dogma's monopoly over rank 12 and lower. But that's not the case, you can definitely get top 3 without them.

The most important thing is to tailor your team to fight what appears in the tournament, like putting in element killers when appropriate or using comboers. Most people complete in 8 turns due to the massive number of damage SSs taking 7 turns to charge, if you also finish in 8 turns, your time count is really important.

The super sickos I've seen can average 1.2-1.5 seconds per question over 6-8 turns, but the more common numbers you will see are between 1.8-2.5 seconds per question on average for the top few. (Anecdote only, I didn't exactly record all the numbers.)

Of course, as you go higher in rank, you'll more likely meet those iap users, who will obviously beat you (since they spent real money to be better), but that does not mean they are invincible, just that they have an advantage. After all, emblem troll and color screw happen to everyone.
