I never said Profundity was a bad ship. My perspective was one of a newer player (<1 year) that pushed for profundity, and Marauder, and expended more resources than the rest of my fleet shard, just to have it wasted and lose out on ~200 crystals a day. I realize the game would get stale if the meta was not shifting, but it did hurt when the two exec counters I farmed both became very unreliable if not impossible overnight.
But I stand by my statement. When it comes to Fleet Arena, especially in a shard that has not transitioned to Levi, it is no longer worthy of a Journey. Its value is equivalent to Negotiator/Marauder.
