Orcs are happiest under captains who steer toward battle. Orcs of the Dire Fleet are downright jovial.
Rulings
Count the number of other attacking Pirates as the ability resolves to determine the size of the bonus.
In a Two-Headed Giant game, attacking Pirates controlled by your teammate will count for Dire Fleet Captain’s ability.
Once the ability resolves, the bonus won’t change later in the turn, even if the number of other attacking Pirates does.
