In a battle with The Borg, would a fleet of Defiant-class ships really do much better than a fleet of normal Starfleet ships?

I mean like...its the same technology at a fundamental level, just more compact and better armed. I guess it would do slightly better but like...

The Borg have massive technological advantages over Starfleet, and have that nifty adaptation ability(although one could question if the adaptation is just choosing to start using tech they had the whole time) that would still stand regardless of technology.

Is the idea that you can do a bunch of nifty tactical maneuvers with a Defiant Class ship that normal Starfleet ships couldn't? If so...what, exactly?

I mean I get that Sisko was getting over the death of his wife when he designed that ship, but still. It doesn't seem like its exactly waht the Federation needs to fight another Borg incursion.

Reminder : MTGA is one of few games in which you can buy "Battle pass" with a currency you can gain in-game.

As a LoL player, i just wanna remind you something : in MTGA, it's quite easy to convert the classic currency (gold) to premium currency (gem).

In most of freemium games, the premium currency is only buyable with real money, or with some stupid daily login reward.

For me, Arena has two pillars of a good economy :

  • premium currency easily accesible for F2P players

  • Wild cards not tied to a particular set or format

That's why the historic 2:1 wild card ratio was a fair fight. The "Theros mastery pass lacks 250 gold of reward" is not a good one.
