Dont consider Flakfishs.
They arent viable.

At which point does something become 'viable'? Does it need to be able to 1v1? Does it need to be one of the strongest meta builds?
Alistair MacBain:
Yes viable for me means that it can effectivly 1v1.
A flakfish cant do this. On long ranges you suffer armorshred so you cant kill an enemy that isnt sitting still for several minutes and doesnt repair his armor at all.
At closeranges the arming time doesnt allow the flakfish to do a reasonable amount of permahull dmg.
Why I say a ship has to 1v1?
Cause it takes no time to either disable your allow or kill him before you can react. A hwachabarrages disables a whole ship which stops your ally from supporting you. This means you are left alone where I already explained why you cant do anything there.
Or a standard gat mortar kills your ally before you can actually help him leaving you with another 1v1 where youre unable to fight back.
The whole idea on disable and kill builds is to take one enemy out of the engagement and then killing his ally. Any other goldfish builds is able to disable the enemy. Even if I agree that a lumberfish suffers a bid on closeranges.
Replaceable:
If fun is what you want, FlakFish and double merc pyra is viable.
But in all other terms- this is not viable one bit.
