Huh, looks like that was ex annihilator and it was stolen in some of the comics. Wonder how it'll turn out, considering pirates don't normally have the manpower to staff something this big...

After a quick Wookiepedia search, it was the Annihilator (formerly General Tagge's command ship), but was renamed to Liberty's Misrule after the pirate Eleodie Maracavanya captured it. It was shown in the Aftermath trilogy to be under pirate command post-Endor, but never given an explanation on how it was captured. Maybe it's supposed to be the newcannon version of the Errant Venture?

I remember in the book she recruited from ships she captured, so that could help explain how she's getting enough manpower to run such an enormous ship.

So... Scum faction Super Star Destroyer confirmed for Armada?

Now I dont mind scum being in Armada, but I dont want it to end like X-wing with scum being OP... Small engagements with a scum faction might be fun.

I'm wary of scum entering armada for that reason. There aren't many examples of pirate fleets participating in the galactic civil war either, compared to fighter scuffles and shootouts.
