Fleet Arena Advice

I have been having some problems in fleet arena lately of dropping heavily lately in fleet arena. I attribute part of this to more people playing Fleet Arena as there of periods of increased/decreased play. I normally finish in the top 5 and drop to the tens, but lately that has been increased to the twenties. I was wondering if there was a better defensive line up using what ship I have.

My Standard Line:
Executrix: Biggs, Tie Silencer, Tie Fighter
Reinforcements: Tie Advanced (1st), Jedi Starfighter, FO Tie Fighter, and 3 star Hound One.

Most players in my shard use a variation of my standard line-up, a couple of Geo squads, and three that are running Hounds Tooth, Bane's Fighter, and Biggs/TF.

Here is my roster: https://swgoh.gg/p/373846679/

Any advice would be appreciated. I do have Scimitar but do not run it since it is useless against Geos and their stealth.

  • You've got a solid starting lineup. I'm a bit confused about your reinforcements though. Which Jedi Starfighter? Ahsoka? Plo Koon? JC? You also said 3* Hound One. Your Hounds Tooth is 4*, and your Slave One is 7*.

    There aren't really any fleets at the moment that can really hold defensively.
  • Yeah, sorry about the confusion but Jedi Consular's Star Fighter and I thought my Hound's Tooth was 3 star instead of 4. I am mostly looking to just increase my ability to defend myself and as you said it is hard to hold defensively with any team.
  • Hounds Tooth is a good start - AI seems to prioritize taunters/tanks for reinforcement. So leave HT as a backup and then watch your opponent have to deal with it after already taking a few turns.

    I'd drop JC Starfighter - it's ok for some pve content but doesn't really have a place in arena. Slave One or Sun Fac could take that spot - throwing wave after wave of taunting tanks to prolong the battle not only makes you an unattractive target; it makes ultimates much more likely to come into play. And Executrix as the second best one.
  • You might try swapping Silencer for TIE Advanced in your starting lineup. The guaranteed target locks make it much harder for your opponents to chew through Biggs.
