Hey everyone, sorry if my question is extremely dumb, but in ship Arena I used to easily win against certain opponents with 4* and 5* Executors when my own Executor was also at that level, but since I got my Executor to 6* I have a way harder time winning against the exact same opponents who are still at the same level 4*/5*, is it normal or am I really that bad ?

Or equip weaker mods on Piett so you still go second.
Better get used to the various battle flows now because you cannot mod swap to adjust speeds once you are locked in to GAC or TW.
I just got my Exec to 6 stars and like you I can't beat 4 and 5 star Execs. There's a 4 star I could beat every time as 5 star, now hording MY extra 50 crystals a day!
I really can't get my head around the strat differences here. As a 5 star Exec went first against the 4 star (just like my 6 star now), but I can't win where I could with little difficulty.
Maybe it's starting with the Xanadu Blood with a 6 star that's a bad idea. As that's when it seems to go wrong.
* capital ship speeds
* fighter speeds
* breach (which affects fighter speeds and mark)
* mark
In general:
* get full 6e mods and low relics on your starting pilots for durability
* having RC 1 speed faster than XB is helpful but not essential
* if your capital ship moves first you can AoE+mass assist on their Razorcrest, otherwise you heal your Razorcrest
* enemy Razorcrest is your first target to eliminate even if you don't land mark or it gets cleansed. AoE and snipe it whenever you can.
* the mirror is a debuff race - TLs to buff your fighters and debuff theirs, breaches to hit ultimate - so make sure you know which abilities can inflict which
* your first RI should almost always be Ebon Hawk to disrupt your enemy's TL accumulation giving you an advantage with fighters
* always use your ultimate the turn it becomes available
Added to that it's a temporary problem, seeing that 7 star isn't far away. I'm guessing it might be the same problem as those that complain that R8 Piet teams can/do do better than R9s.
Because it doesn’t happen ? 2 times in a row could though.
Do you mean Xanadu Blood? Hounds Tooth doesn't have an AoE. If so then yes I agree.
No, I mean don't use the Executor AoE/mass swarm. That will feed TM to their HT, and not apply mark because whoever you hit will have Tenacity Up.
