There were a lot of wild games this last week. The log files are very fun.
Team Covenant Aces League
Stats are finished for Week 2 and the lists are up for Week 3 :https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/19OGUTNrg-3-BN_k-ks_ks3f5xRC5POhmYA3MOv7SEEA/edit?usp=sharing
Some notes from Week 2:
Dom's Whisper lead the week in points mostly due to her 9 crits (!) and 16 hits she dished out, she got 2 kills and evaded 16 hits/crits as well.
Sozin's Patrol Leader mopped up a bunch of TIE Advanced this week getting all 4 kills blows across 1 crit and 13 hits in the match against StarSlinger72.
We saw a lot of Tempest Squadron Pilots out there this week and the cream of the crop was StarSlinger72's #1 registering a kill, a crit, 7 hits, 13 evades and 4 blocks before being knocked out and Texx's lone Tempest who got a kill, 4 crits and 2 hits but also managed to survive the match.
KineticOperator's Guri was one of this week's most spirited loser, she evaded 18 hits before going down (also had 3 crits, 3 hits and a kill).
On the opposite end of the spectrum, poor showing from Dom's Dark Curse who put up a goose egg, doing absolutely nothing before getting killed.
StarSlinger's Vader looked like maybe his armor's life support system was failing and distracting him or something since he flew right at the enemy, only managing to get one hit in before dying as well.
IG-88D? more like IG-88F... Theorist's bot buddy did not fair very well in his matchup against the Empires best, failing to get more than one damage through against Fel and Vader before going down
The highly anticipated N'Dru Suhlak who is being touted as a future Scum staple didn't get to show off many of her skills under direction from KineticOperator after being promptly 1 shot by the enemy Whisper.
Fan favourite Han Solo also had a bad week, apparently forgetting how to use his skills under PHeaver's tutelage, only getting 2 hits in this week, seemingly not living up to his 60pt investment.
edit: Oh ya congrats to ransburger for winning the week with 53.6pts. Everyone's totals this week were quite a bit lower than last week, with over 100 less points being scored overall compared to last week. Don't forget only your top 8 weeks count so there's still lots of time to join in the fun even if you missed the first two weeks!

Man. I cannot go like a day without a typo.
Dom v Kelvan 7CST tonight 1/23/15
2 upsets this round so far. KineticOperator only lost 1 ship to the quadruple phantoms. (WARTHOGS!!!) and Paul got a win vs Sozin.
I'm surprised the IG is so popular. There was a lot of hype but in the end it's still a front-arc large base ship.
Here's a video of last week's Warthog v 4 Sigma game. WARTHOGS!!!

They have yet to record a win. Luckily no matter what they will this week.

I think you're forgetting something.

Yes he is. I won't forget double direct hits anytime soon.
Yo, where's the R4 preview series podcast Ricky?! I NEEDS IT!
I screwed up the audio... like a chump.
Week 5 updated!
Well that's it for week 5 of the Aces League. What do you think so far of the Wave 6 Meta? Can Scum compete with the Turret/Phantom Meta? What ship or squad are you surprised hasn't been run? Who do you think is in for a jump in the standings?
Fixed Sozin's list.
Someday I hope to win again. Terrible losing streak for me!
Week 6 Updated!
That's week 6. Who do you think will win? What do you think of the squads? What do you think of the league so far? Champion Prediction?
here are three easy steps to dominating the Team Covenant Aces league:
- Have the first name "Dallas"
- Have the last name "Parker"
- Bring Darth Vader with Advanced Targeting Computer
I may try and replicate this formula for myself elsewhere, but I am afraid that skipping steps 1 and 2 may not lead to the same result.

I need to do some research but I believe ATC Vader is performing very well.
