Hi!

Since Hpyerion patch is scheduled for August 26th (afaik) and it will bring changed to HACs like ishtar and munin. I kinda feel bad about changing any ships in the middle of the AT. All can adapt, but still.... Just my 2 cents :)

We agree that the timing isn't ideal, but we're not really inclined to delay positive changes for the whole game just to keep consistency through the tournament.

Part of the reason we're comfortable releasing the changes at this time is that every team is affected equally and on even footing.

Unless you trained up HAC 5 in your entire team instead of something else of course.

Bans make depending on one ship type pretty moronic. And, perhaps I'm wrong, but the only ship getting a nerf is the Ishtar, which is incidentally one of the most banned ship in the last AT. The changes to the eagle and munnin are pretty minor tbh.
