Vader + Swarm Tactics

Soontir + PTL

Mauler Mither + Wingman

Dark Curse

96.

This list has been treating me well and I thought I'd share it. Pretty basic, but intuitive and effective. I fly it defensively and in tight formation, usually with my lower PS out front and lowest on the outside. I will set-up a nice asteroid field in my own end, stroll through it and dive out before combat so that my opponent has to turn around in a rock pile. You'd think Wingman on MM would be a bad idea, but those who think that killing him will slow down Soontir are sadly disappointed. Fly the list defensively, and then go on the attack when the timing is right. In the last 5 games I have played I have flown this list and lost only once. Not a big deal by any means, but for me it's pretty darn good. I even went 100-0 in one game and in another win I had flown DC off the map in the second turn.

Anyways, that's my list. Feel free to try it out/revisit it and let me know how it worked for you.

So, thought I'd just necro this one instead of starting a new thread.

I really like this list, but it has changed a little bit now. Check it out.

Been flying this a lot, and I've gone through a few changes, this is but one of many. I swapped Outmaneuver for EU last game and found it clunky. Too much boosting, you get tempted and can pull your own plans apart. Soontir is the only booster and this fits in well because he can afford to spend an action on that. I find the Barrel Roll to be a much more potent tool, and if I have to choose between one or the other I'll take the roll every time. You can get a lot more movement out of a BR than a boost. SO when it comes to Vader I find he's better off doing only one movement action. That aside, Vader seems to run alongside the /ln better anyways and Soontir is more of a hang out and prowl type player.

I know, I know. Tie x1 Title. Maybe after a few more commissions. Notice the one point free in there? I think even without the Title Vader can still, if flown properly, be a very good tool to have in ones belt.

I'm still flying this in a little pinwheel, or trying to at least, haha! I find that I am getting much better with the precise movement though and just yesterday I flew this list for a win. I still find that it's a little underpowered, but the idea is not to smash through the opponent, but to skirt around the mat and pounce on em at the right time.

I can't count my wins or losses. I don't keep track. I feel like I am pretty consistent with this list now and people are starting to see it as a challenging list to play against. At least in my local meta I'm doing well!
