Jake, Kyle and Garvin

By mwagner626, in X-Wing Squad Lists

I'm putting together a list for my first tournament in a couple of weeks and was hoping for some feedback. I've played casually for a while now and have really enjoyed this list, and have gotten good at using it effectively. So, I'm looking on feedback as to what builds it will struggle against and how to optimize it.

Jake Farrell + Chardaan Refit + Awing Test Pilot + Stealth Device + Outmaneuver + Predator

Garven Dreiss + R2-D2 + Sheild Upgrade

Kyle Katarn + Moldy Crow + Ion Turret + Jan Orrs + Hull Upgrade + Veteran Instincts

(I would put R5-K9 on Garvin, but my rebel transport won't arrive in time)

Thanks in advance!

As long as you can outfly the hull points of a BBBBZ list, you'll manage. But that's a list with a lot of hul and a lot of attack dice, just not much agility.

youre in arkansas instead of texas so ill throw my two cents in :P

jake is fun to fly in casuals but not real competitive...too expensive for not much damage even with outmanuver

the way xwings are at the moment read this they arent worth the points in a three ship build.

leaving a fat Kyle which looks like a juicy target ripe for the picking.

all in all it looks (to me) like a fun casual list but not a tournament list. dont get me wrong i love them but theres a reason you dont see xwings and awings on the final tables at nationals.

HAVING SAID ALL THAT...fly what youre comfortable with and tactically know well. Ive said in another post: good piloting>good list building
