Lando that scoundrel

By Rogue Dakotan, in X-Wing

So I finally got to try out my YT-2400. Threw together a silly list:

Eaden Vrill + Lando crew

Hobbie + R3-A2 + Flechette Torps

Dutch + That one Droid + Predator (which was a bad choice for him) + Flechette Torps x2 + ICT

Not the strongest team.

BUT

My buddy, not having seen my build, put together a list that was the perfect opponent.

Echo, Fel, and Carnor.

With them pushing the limit and with the debris fields and R3-A2, I don't think Eaden had a shot the whole game against a ship that wasn't stressed.

But, onto Lando.

I activated the Lando action 5 times that game.

First time was double evades. Which was awesome.

Next four times were double blanks!

Which was hilarious. I'm not mad about it. That's the nature of the Lando card.

I assumed he was in the cargo hold doing... something... and was too busy to help with the dogfight.

I won the match with my YT at near full health and Dutch with one hull left. Hobbie got obliterated in the first round of combat.

But even though he F*CKED me, I really enjoyed using the Lando crew.

He can be super awesome, or he can F*CK YOU HARD. Which is hilarious.

I <3 dice in this game.

It is difficult to contain my squeals of excitement when I roll Lando's dice. You never know what's gonna happen!

I can totally see this card carrying someone through a tourney, only to see blanks at the final table. This has to be my favourite upgrade card thematically.

I played a similar list with Eaden and Lando. I didn't roll double blanks the entire game! ...but I still lost. "Echo" with "Whisper" and a Doom Shuttle were just too much for me. Eaden spent about 15 minutes trying in vain to hurt "Echo" with only ATK 2. Even though I lost, the two best things were the YT-2400's dial, and most of all Lando! So much fun!

Experimental Interface seems to be a good fit for Lando.

I can hear him saying from the cargo hold. "It's not my fault! they told me they fixed it!"

Don't use Lando

Green Dice are slimy double-crossing no-good swindlers that have a lot of guts coming here, after what they pulled

I can hear him saying from the cargo hold. "It's not my fault! they told me they fixed it!"

Yeah very thematic if used on a chewie falcon.

I feel like you have to pair Lando with Predator, Lone Wolf, Gunner, etc. Something that can give an offensive boost when you do happen to roll nothing but blanks, or even an evade or two. He works with EI as well, but then you have that nasty stress business.

I don't see relying on Lando to win games on a consistent basis.

Lando = Fun > Winning

Han Solo + Lando + C3P0 + Predator + Experimental Interface. FTW!

Lando = Fun > Winning

∴ Lando > Winning

I assumed he was in the cargo hold doing... something... and was too busy to help with the dogfight.

Probably gambling while drinking Colt45's!

"It works most of the time!"

I need to come up with a list that uses this as the core. Even if it doesn't work well...

Chewbacca, Predator, Han Solo, Lando Calrissian, Millenium Falcon, Experimental Interface

I wish this **** restock would happen I can't source a falcon anywhere locally for a reasonable price, and it's just not in me to pay £50 for one.
