I was TO for this one and did not play.
4 rounds, 75 minutes each, 18 players (9 Imperial, 9 Rebel)
Every game finished on time. That's why I love 75 over 60 minute games.
Only 2 Modified Match Wins all day, so scoring and placement were very tight! Any one of the top 5–6 players could have won the day. And the middle 6 players all scored equally at 12 Match Points. A fun and tightly competitive field!
A lot of different lists. Only 2 pairs of super mirrors, and they both fought their evil twins. Some uncommon pilot choices in the mix too.
1 st Place (4–0)
BH, Howlrunner +Determination, 4x Academy
2 nd -5 th Place (3–1, each with 16 Match Points, not one of these players lost to one of the others, order of placement determined entirely by Strength of Schedule, and the top 2 had equal SoS, so Points Destroyed was the next breaker)
2 nd BH +HLC +Recon, Soontir +PtL, Turr +VI
3 rd Han +ExHand +Nien +Luke, 2x Blue Sqd (lost to 1 st Place player in round 4)
