Yes, cath co + xan fi will be good, but there's no scenario ever in which it hasn't been.

- Personally I think there are too many FR fleets. BOTH zik and etd having an FR fleet seems a bit OTT. I can see etd + xan fr teaming up be quite popular...

- I really hate zik. THe FR fleet is unfathomably uneffective and the CR fleet, despite having nice effs, is a loose-loose affair as landing it on anything means your CR fleet going *pooof* and you being stuck with a useless att fleet.


Overall, at first glance, these stats look a lot better than I'd have thought. However I'd suggest trying to accomplish the following;

1) Make Zik CR not suck
2) Possibly make the Zik FR fleet into a DE fleet. Zik has far too many stealships imo
3) I think etd having three good + a DE roidfleet is a bit OTT. The "co for def and etd FR for att to team with xan FR" strat seems too good to me.
or give Zik co pods so they have another att fleet option?
