Punishing One Update
Capital Games examined Executor vs. Leviathan fleet matchups in Fleet Arena. One particular Executor fleet is overperforming against a specific Leviathan build that is the best counter to a Leviathan mirror match. No direct action is planned to adjust Punishing One due to its performance in other battles.
The counter to Punishing One in a Leviathan fleet involves starting TIE Dagger on the field. This defense has a win rate more in line with expectations. However, TIE Dagger in the starting lineup is detrimental to Leviathan mirror matches.
To address this, TIE Dagger will receive buffs. This is intended to make it the desired unit for Leviathan mirror matches while remaining the best counter for Executor and Punishing One fleets. This way, Leviathan owners can maintain expected win rates against other Leviathans and be favored against Executor/Punishing One fleets. The implementation of this change to TIE Dagger will occur at the earliest possible window.
