To beat a 7-star Profundity fleet with a 6-star Executor in Star Wars™: Galaxy of Heroes, you must bypass the enemy tank, eliminate Dash Rendar's Outrider immediately, destroy Han's Millennium Falcon second, and call Slave I as your first reinforcement.
Because a 6-star Executor lacks the speed to race Profundity to an ultimate ability, victory depends on stripping the Rebel fleet's damage engine before the Profundity completes its Download. Once Outrider and Han's Falcon are down, remaining Rebel attackers lack the firepower to defeat Hound's Tooth, even if Profundity fires its ultimate.
Fleet Lineup and Reinforcements
Run a standard Bounty Hunter frontline. Substituting starters removes required assist synergy and exposes squishier ships to Rebel opening attacks.
| Slot | Ship | Pilot | Tactical Role |
|---|---|---|---|
| Capital Ship | Executor (6-Star) | Grand Moff Tarkin / Piett | Debuff cleanses, mass assist, payout ramp |
| Frontline Tank | Hound's Tooth | Bossk | Absorbs crits, stacks defense and Protection Up |
| Frontline Support | Razor Crest | The Mandalorian (Beskar) | Applies Marked, spreads Breach, assists |
| Frontline Attacker | Xanadu Blood | Cad Bane | Target Lock, stealth, calls assists |
| 1st Reinforcement | Slave I | Boba Fett | Heavy burst damage, cleanses buffs, finisher |
| Reserve Reinforcement | IG-2000 or Ebon Hawk | IG-88 or Carth Onasi | Stun utility or emergency buff control |
Slave I must be your first reinforcement. Bringing Boba Fett in early provides critical area damage and burst potential to dismantle remaining Rebel support ships.
Opening Turn Sequence
Profundity fleets gain immediate turn meter and trigger heavy assist chains off critical hits. Hound's Tooth will absorb the opening barrage. Once your fleet begins taking turns, establish debuffs in this order:
- Executor Special (Vader's Bounty): Target Dash Rendar's Outrider or the Rebel Y-Wing. This cleanses your Bounty Hunters, calls all Bounty Hunter allies to assist, and inflicts Breach across the enemy fleet.
- Xanadu Blood Special: Target Outrider. This grants stealth to Xanadu Blood, inflicts Target Lock, and calls Razor Crest to assist.
- Razor Crest Special: Attack Outrider. Because the target has Breach, Razor Crest inflicts Marked. This forces your fleet to bypass the Rebel Y-Wing's taunt.
- Hound's Tooth Turn: Use the basic attack to inflict Breach if needed. If Rebel critical hits or assist calls inflicted Buff Immunity on Hound's Tooth, use its special ability immediately to cleanse debuffs and re-establish Taunt.
Target Priority Order
Do not waste attacks on the Rebel Y-Wing while high-threat Rebel attackers remain active.
- Target 1: Outrider (Dash Rendar): Outrider grants bonus Protection, strips turn meter, and accelerates Profundity's Download mechanic through critical hits. Mark it with Razor Crest and focus all assist calls on it until it is destroyed.
- Target 2: Han's Millennium Falcon: Han's Falcon drives Rebel assist chains and cleanse triggers. Once Outrider is destroyed, shift all attacks directly to the Falcon.
- Target 3: Remaining Rebel Ships: With both primary damage dealers down, Profundity cannot generate enough damage to overcome Hound's Tooth's stacking defense. Call Slave I and eliminate the remaining Rebel Y-Wing, Biggs Darklighter, or Bistan's U-Wing.
Surviving the Profundity Download
A 6-star Executor will rarely fire its ultimate ability before a 7-star Profundity reaches 100% Download. Do not attempt to outrace the Download counter.
Profundity's ultimate destroys your capital ship's summoned units and grants temporary buffs to surviving Rebels, but it does not automatically eliminate active Bounty Hunter ships with solid health pools. Provided Outrider and Han's Falcon are eliminated before the Download completes, Hound's Tooth will survive the Rebel fleet's remaining attacks, allowing Slave I and your frontline survivors to clean up the board.
Common Failure Points
- Attacking Rebel Y-Wing Directly: Engaging the enemy tank allows Outrider and the Falcon to attack freely and ramp Download progress. Always use Razor Crest to apply Marked on Outrider.
- Delaying Slave I: Calling a different ship on your first reinforcement turn deprives your fleet of burst damage when Outrider and Falcon need to be closed out. Call Slave I on your first available reinforcement turn.
- Unaddressed Buff Immunity on Hound's Tooth: If Hound's Tooth is inflicted with Buff Immunity or Healing Immunity, it cannot gain Protection Up or Taunt. Cleanse it immediately using Executor's abilities or Hound's Tooth's second special.

This guide answered the exact question I had.
I tried this today and it worked better than my old setup.
This saved me time in the early game.
I wish I had read this before upgrading the wrong thing.
