The agony of bumping one's own ships affects us all, skilled and new. :)  Learning how to direct your ships to avoid bumping friend or foe is a big part of the game, and a powerful skill to perfect.  You're doing very well by challenging yourself to learn that spacial planning!

Bump chains are evil too btw. This is when one ship bumps unexpectedly, which means another ship which should have been clear now bumps, which interrupts the move of yet more ships... I've been in games where everyone crunched together in the center of the map and it took a couple turns to get everyone out of the traffic jam, either through maneuvering or murder.

I like your attitude of flying Soontir because you like him, and he's an enjoyable challenge. He is a lot of fun and I love me some TIE Interceptors, and his pilot ability and arc-dodging make him extremely rewarding in skilled hands. Bombs and more powerful ships have definitely pushed him out of the top meta, but if your local meta is much more casual, then he can return to doing very well.
