Sure that’s one way of looking at things. When you’ve been in this game since the beginning and have never dropped out of top 10 in arena and run in a top guild, noob seems to be a befitting title I guess.

Seriously man! I thought you generally had an intelligent point of view, what happened?

I've got the same list i can give you about my "ingame carreer", still doesn't mean i'm not a noob though.

i still do just as well for now but it seems capital is way more important now, only low level capital at my ranks was a home one. i do feel that maybe mace capital is in a odd spot, vs tarkin u dont really want to use anything but valor or reinforce, so it kinda makes your other spells useless. while applying taunt could be ever so useful at first, doing so reduce your tm gains and speed so u migth not reach prot up for tarkin tie swarm wich is kind of important, ontop of delaying reinforce. you would want to use taunt and target lock shot but as it is now for me that is rare i use it. other then that the new protection up is a definite improvement over old version, it do infact seem more viable then before but that is for now. so all of mace basic spells are good but when do we get to use them?

I can relate. It's hard to stay both positive and logical in the face of overwhelming day-after-day negativity about every single thing in the game.

It's been a few days already and the top 50 on my fleet shard? It is split between Tarkin and Thrawn, about evenly. Lineups? Biggs, Tie Advanced, and Tie Fighter. Though there are some that have FO TF or Tie Slicer as their third. But, that's pretty much the META right there.

It's a race towards who goes first and who can knock out biggs and get their reinforcement in first so it becomes 4v2. Warrior put up a good video, along with Smithie D about ships, but at the end of the day, this is what I've seen on my fleet shard. There were a couple with Ackbar and even one Mace cap ship in the top 50, but no more.

So there "might" be more rock paper scissors, but only with reinforcements currently.

The fact that there's as many Tarkin as Thrawn is a big change though. Before this change it was all Thrawn.

This maybe because the battle is much more rng

Just because your decision-making leads to more rng doesn't mean there's more rng in ships now.

Well there's one problem right there, stop targeting the TF without using Vader or Poe's special. Just because they cut the dodge rate down doesn't mean you should just attack it willy-nilly now.

What.

New ship changes are garbage, can't believe they ruined one of my favorite game modes entirely. What a poorly thought out and executed change this is
