Shall we evaluate the possibility of dropping Phoenixes on ratting fleets in lieu of Nags then?

From what I am reading/hearing Citadel Torps will now actually be usable, but to what degree I am wondering. What will be the differences in damage application? I don't do a bunch of theorycrafting, but I would have to poke at Nags still being superior vs. subcaps even after the torp buffs.

CCP ignore me please, I make too much sense.

They won't be usable. The only thing the pheonix has going for it is that you can warp it into the site at 50 km and basically take no damage from their dreads (and you have extra shield resists as well). But this is overshadowed by the fact that it literally will not do full damage to a nag that has skirmish links even if the nag is sitting still.

Not to mention that if they bring subcaps and you don't have a huge subcap support fleet of your own, you're boned because your pheonix will never do appreciable damage to the subcaps, without a full missile exp radius fit (which you need rigs for, and im p sure you don't want to be going into dread fights with 3 rigors fit instead of 3 semiconductors).
