Utterly Destroy a Pilot...

By That One Guy, in X-Wing

If you could "kill" a pilot so that no one could ever fly it again, who would it be? I said this in another thread already, but I'd pick Wes Jason.

Maarek.

Oh... wait...

(No really. Biggs.)

Yeah biggs is really annoying.

I'd say Howlrunner but Howl's balanced now.

Whatever the meta likes most. So probably Bandit Squadron Pilot or Chewie.

Dark curse. He/she's not overpowered or anything, just really annoying. Carnor Jax is also annoying, but he's much more expensive and doesn't hit the table nearly as often.

Nobody.

:)

Howlrunner is (was) powerful enough to warp the metagame, but Biggs warps the design space. I'd disintegrate him.

Agreeing with Joe. There isn't a pilot I'd like removed from the game. Just some that need some help getting up to snuff.

Han Solo. Rerolls in general are really annoying, and Han + Gunner is just a reeeeally anti-fun joke.

Han Solo.

Nah... he'll shoot you first.

:lol:

Definitely Wedge. Taking evade dice out of my hand really irks me.

Biggles would be my choice; the man must die.

Han or Biggs. Both warp gameplay a bit too much. Maybe I can get Han to shoot him first and then just kill Han.

The gaming sin Biggs commits is he takes control away from the owner of the unit and that's no fun no matter the game.

Yes and no. He changes the game, but his lifespan is so short, and his range so low that it is possible to work around him. He inhibits control, but doesn't take it away completely.

It's like the lash of submission from 40k that let you move the enemies units it was despicable with good reason, it does not matter that Biggs dies fast he should never remove control in the first place.

Soontir

+1 for Soontir...even though I win more times than lose against him, it's usually a struggle to bring him down.

Academy Pilot

That would eliminate all kinds of swarms!!!

I'm not sure if we're choosing pilots based on how much they annoy you when your opponents use them or to what degree they undermine your suspension of disbelief. If the latter, I find Biggs' ability hard to swallow from a simulationist point of view. However, from a gameplay point of view, I think it's an interesting wrinkle. If the former... probably still Biggs.

Really everyone wants to kill of Biggs? That's what he wants people. Don't you get it? Your playing right into his hands. We kill off Biggs and the terrorists win...

Echo!

I don't know pilot, but I retired for the game to R2-D2, is really annoying upgrade, even when I get it, I saw the face of my friiend, and always is fustrated, greettings.

Yes! Didn't Episode IV teach us anything? Kill Biggs and thousands die!

For those saying he "warps the design space," do you mean the fact that many rebel builds center around him?
