Executor unlock method concerns.. Confirmed
As per the latest news from the devs (there has been a recent stream on twitch from cg crumb in which he briefly talked about the executor event) it looks like whatever kind of event it'll be, we won'...

Delayed 7 star release method is much better for early birds than rewarding the full 7 star version at the completion of the event, assuming all variables that currently hold for fleet battles stay as they are.
Assume these:
- Executor at 4 stars is much better than maxed existing fleets
- Executor has meaningful power curve from 4 stars to the full 7 stars
If those hold early birds are ~guaranteed (bar crystal refreshes) an advantage in fleet over everyone unlocking after them for at least for the duration of the starring period. For example, if you unlock Executor on day 1 while your average competition unlocks 1 year after you are guaranteed at least 1 year + starring period of advantage in the fleet arena (= ~ 2 years). Without delay you would obviously hold advantage only for 1 year.
