2015 Worlds Results

Poor, poor Corran. Stressed out the wazoo.

eh, he probably deserved it

Triple K looks like the real TLT menace. I caught a couple games of him testing in vassal(props to Doc Paul for posting some of those recaps) and was hoping to see it here.

In retrospect, Kari should have flown right into the teeth of that list and used his y-wings and a Corran double tap to go all out on dropping one of the k-wings turn 1.

Going 6-0 (Which means increasingly tougher matchups, not just 'lucky pairings') with triple-K-wings should be more than enough to prove their worth.

Some days we get too excited about efficiency and/or aces. I'd love to see that list later. :)

nien, apparently Miranda and double warden TLT with tacticians

seismic charge carpet bombing would've been hilarious, though

I was thinking of going fishing, but that would've been great too.

I really like the Miranda/Warden/Warden build with three TLTs and three Tacticians. That just seems brutally efficient. I love me some K-Wing though.

it's not really "Efficient" per say

in terms of statline to cost, Ks are absolute garbage and Ys are strictly superior

but then you put them in the hands of a good player, especially one confident enough to run Tacticians with that dial, and oh god they can do so much with SLAM re-positioning distinguishing them from Ys (apart from the crew slot, ofc)

and then there's Miranda. Miranda will just carry your ass to victory.

We haven't had nearly the world's coverage in the forums this year we had last year. Weird. I would like some deeper coverage.

I haven't seen the whole twitch feed, but from what I have seen, there are some awesome lists running around in Minnesota today.

Well lads, now that we've seen some of the hype, we need to rule on a very important issue:

Wave 7,

best wave or BEST wave?

Though, from the sounds of it, Crackshot has been making a splash as well.

8 games with not very long breaks in between (except for the one hour break) and the fact that people catch up with friends that are actually there....I'd give them a break on the depth of coverage. Besides, with such a large and diverse field it's probably hard to keep track of what's going on in terms of standings...

Paul Heaver is going against Aaron Bomer, both undefeated.

TLT ruins it for me frankly. Love the rest. But when I just sit and watch my opponent roll dice and negate the need for me to even bother, I consider that anti-interactive and un-fun. Or when I do it to him for that matter. Range, damage output, weakness, AT counter, all there, don't care doesn't matter; you take the tension and suspense out of the game when you remove dice in a dice game. (Hence why every time someone starts a 'diceless rules' thread every one points out why it's bad design for the feel of the game play) I hate playing them, I hate playing against them. But since they're here, and they're way too good, I have to use them or at least counter them, or at worse both. Personal opinion. Everything else stupidly I love the hell out of. Funky, I know, I'm weird and vocal and have an opinion on the internet, how terrible of me. I apologize for the rant, but I'm not sorry about it.

I'll pen you down for just "best wave" then

Paul vs Aaron update:

Poe vs 2 Wardens.

And Poe is double stressed.

Lol, that'll be fine. :D

Well, Paul took the game.

KILL THOSE KWINGS. =DDDDD

Okay, like... I would not be happy about 3TLT Kwings/Miranda getting the spotlight. I hate Miranda. More PWT annoying crap. Even dash had a doughnut hole. K's DONT. They get 3 dice at every range, and miranda gets 4 and crazy stuff.

AND no MOV fix for large ships. Ugh!!!!

Ugh, more stuff I read, more I wish I was there :(

I know, same here! Would have been interesting to see how you and Jeff did. #rooksquad

Nathan's Talon Roll in Round 8 was pretty awesome. But most of the time I couldn't quite figure out what he was doing with his ships. It reminded me of that whole "drunken fist" technique (and hothie's "drunken shark"). He was definitely hard for me to predict, and it ended up netting him an important victory, so I guess it worked for him.

#"real-life" getting in the way of what makes us happy.
