To be blunt, I adapted to the changes after experimenting. I paid attention to the reinforcement abilities and adjusted to maximize them. Vader is no longer in the initial wave because he wreaks far more havoc when brought in (same with Reaper to a lesser degree). Boba is now in the starting lineup because it forces opponents to address him early. I do not retain my final placing through 24 hours, but I win FAR more than I lose.
This cuts to the heart of the biggest problem with 2.0: Players' unwillingness to accept it. I hated 2.0 the day it finally released, go back and look at my first few posts, but over a week later I've come to really enjoy it and look forward to more stuff to do. I had to change my entire lineup because the capital ship I invested heavily in (Endurance) is complete and total garbage now, but I adapted and genuinely like fleet battles now.
I'm suffering in rank because my other admirals are g8, but that's something that will get better over time.
I have to respectfully disagree that mace is garbage. I ran him in 1.0. And still do in 2.0 and win upwards of 90% of my battles in 2 minutes or less. I'm on a day 1 shard, very active. Everyone still runs thrawn, biggs, vader and either tfp or sun fac. I finish top 5 every day.
