I tend to chase ships that don't have an evasion booster. They're usually mincemeat for me. Conversely, certain ships that do have someone who boosts evasion are a pain.
I just find someone with instant damage and cloak before they attack. Then I unleash M. Phlox with TuBorg and it's over without a scratch on my hull.
I found that my Admiral Janeway can neutralize the Borg Cube. Her quick defense can protect against the initial borg onslaught.
For anyone interested, 4* Lore is the "poor man's" Admiral Janeway. Same timing numbers (1 sec Initialize, 12 sec CD, 10 sec Duration) but only +7 evasion instead of +9 and considerably worse equipment bonus (though the evasion equipment bonus is about the same). That being said, if you don't have Admiral Janeway but are looking for a way to counter the Cube, Lore works wonders (plus with Sci, Eng, and Dip, there is some versatility with slots that are generally harder to find great skills for). I used him for a while until I vaulted him due to poor base and prof (plus the arena still gave crap rewards). I never realized how much I missed his low initialize timer until I tried rising in ranks again.

Naturally, but I find that Thibault cancels out Admiral Janeway. Don’t you?
Not from my experience. No. She gives me enough time to get my damage and accuracy ready, and I have a second evasion that picks it up after Janeway
Maybe you got it, maybe you didn't, but just in case, if this were discord I'd put a Foghorn Legorn gif here "That was a joke son, you missed it! Flew right by you!"
