In short : If you are a newer player, skipped Exe to go straight for Prof, sucks to be you. Your R9 Admiral Raddus is useless, and so is your fleet because you can not beat Exe OR Levi at all. I don't understand this "lifter" for Exe. I could consistently beat Prof with Exe, and Exe with Prof. They could consistently counter each other. Now Prof has exactly zero chance of being anywhere in the top 50.
At the same time, I literally never used tie dagger with my Leviathan. Not even as a reinforcement, so I really don't understand why it is that specific ship that us Leviathan users will have to switch to... Why can't they give said buffs to one of the OG lineups? Why complicate it?
Furthermore how will this new lineup/buff translate to the Chimera counter against Levi? Will it totally screw that up and further screw many other players?
If they want their money grab just throw a new fleet out that beats all the previous "GL" ships, don't make ridiculous adjustments to the current ones. Whales will whale either ways, but screwing a bunch of people who put in the time and effort to get Prof, only for it to become a "Glorified Negotiator counter" was a disgusting move. These ships take 4-6 months to acquire the requirements, and almost two yrs to 7* without whaling. In it's current state Prof is worthless.
