I'm unwilling to drag AD into here, but Newdawn won because of politics, not because of the stats.

I already suggested nerfing Inforza and Beetle, which boosts Xan Fi (probably by too much, to be quite honest). Also, Ghosts are cloaked and there were tons of them around. I went Ter Bs for the last half of r50 and barely landed, despite having plenty of fleets to team up with.

Uh, what? Co fleets were not struggling defensively. Are you insane?
