Congratulations @Seirea and welcome to the forum. I didn't expect twitch streamers coming in these threads so early in their series incarnation but here we are, WOO!
It's interesting that you picked that my playstyle was solely to joust at the top and pray, I tend to AVOID THAT AT ALL COSTS in my gameplan and only use it as a last resort, it's not reliable enough for my taste. Maybe I use it more often as a last resort than I realize.
One thing I've slowly developped recently is to relax and corral these baddies by flying more slowly away. Trying to rush your escape gives you a false sense of short term security. Yes, you're running from immediate danger in the moment, but you're rushing into your warp on the other side and into the next danger zone. If you fly at near their speed, you can make them waste more time flying towards you before you pop out at maximum distance on the other side. Try that out sometime, it helped me a lot.
I also abuse the lowest level more and more recently. My broad strategy is that higher ground is good, so corral towards bottom if you don't have it, then get back high ground, abuse ledges (like I've seen you do).
I might try to beat my score near the end of the month's time but right now, my work is tying me up really good. I suspect you can really up your score (dare we say a million points???) if you depend less on getting the high ground by twitch jousting and more on slow methodical corraling by matching their speed and not rushing.
edit - you probably picked it up (didn't watch every second of your stream) but you can kill the eye by bumping into it when its lid closes, it happens every 15 s (or whatever it is) at regular intervals
