A Fighter/Battlemaster + as many combat feats as you can get, is supposed to be the highest-complexity option for playing a Fighter in 5e, comparable in complexity with spellcasters.The ASI vs Feat alternative is a great design idea of 5e, because it allows each player to dial her PC's complexity, without affecting other players. Then it becomes a matter of preference, what level of complexity you want...Personally, I am always more interested in feats than ASI, but as I said I've never played high level enough to get more than two feats... I do think however, that I might choose to get an ASI at higher levels, either in case I feel I need to get a widespread boost to keep up with the adventures, or if I found out that I already dialed my complexity higher than I can comfortably manage.</blockquote>
