Why is there an armada keyword? Defining the ace fleet rules term alone would be entirely enough:
> When Dreaded Captain enters the battlefield, if you have an ace fleet, destroy target creature. (You have an ace fleet, if you control six or more creatures.)
I also feel at rare the body without ace fleet achieved should be closer to a creature that you would play by itself. Maybe use the freed space in the text box to add a keyword mechanic? Menace or deathtouch are options I could see.
That's how they did it with Ascend in RIX, though it does seem weird. Do you know why they did it that way?
I'll fix the body, thanks for the advice.
