The Scimitar no longer works

A Leviathan with an R9 Darth Revan now loses to a Leviathan with an R10 Darth Revan because Scimitar doesn't increase the speed of its Leviathan. And Sabotage the Engines doesn't reduce enough speed ...

Didn't once lose to r10 leviathan
only difference between between relic 9 when you start second and relic 10, enemy leviathan is able to call sith fighter without being destroyed, rest of the fight looks exactly the same

As mentioned in another post, if they have r10 Darth Revan AND set reinforcements so that Scimitar comes out first, an r9 Leviathan is never winning the race to ultimate.

  Set reinforcement so it comes out first? I thought the order was decided by a preset priority, have I been mistaken this whole time?

    The ships have different reinforcement priorities. So if you set ones with lower priorities than Scimitar, it comes out first. However, those are things like Raven's Claw which don't do much for Leviathan. B-6 is a no-go. So if someone does this, you can still win even if they get ult first-- it's just annoying because you have to play manually and take like 4 minutes.

  Isn't this frowned upon? Deliberately setting up reinforcements to make it harder for your shard-mates to climb over you.

    Winning isn't impossible, but it is harder. Some players see fleet relics as a convenience upgrade. Stronger fleet means you drop less and have to climb less. Fleet shards have always worked this way. Do you put FO on defense with your last fleet battle of the day to make it easier for other people to climb, or do you leave Lev in place? I don't blame people for trying to optimize the fleet climb to being as close to auto wins as possible. Fleet arena and Squad arena operate on a silly model. I hate it and keep waiting for CG to take crystals out of fleet arena so I never have to bother with it again.
