Game was dominated by Tie swarm and BBBB lists

and FFG didn't like that

so they inented PHANTOM to eat those poor fellows.

and it did.

the gunline died, but people tasted the rainbow of acewing and don't want to quit it.

maybe tracers will fix the acewing problem a bit, but unlikely.

if TLTs didn't fix them, nothing will

So has anyone here tried a 2k 5Z list?

yes.

fails miserably against arcdodgers, unless your foe is a miserable failure and let you fire all 5 at the ace during opening salvo.

This is the problem with the game currently. There is too much power creep in the form of stacking power upgrades and abilities and regen and **** that when it comes down to your 40 points of Kirahxz vs. a regen Poe you've lost. Or 60 Kirahxzs vs a super Dash.

Good job the standard game's 100 points vs 100 points then, isn't it?

Of course, if you play a lot of Escalation I can understand that particular gripe.

The problem isn't much better at 100 points. 100 points of Kirahxz vs. 100 super points of corran or Dash or Poe or whatever else ends up heavily in favor of the Acewing/Turretwing list.

Those types of situations happen often. You trade 2-3 Kirahxzs for a Dash and then you can't kill the Corran or Poe or whatever.

So you're basically fighting a 120 point list with a list that worth just 100.

Going to beg to differ on that, based on personal experience of actually flying Kihraxz.

they just should have given the Ki his well-deserved Merc-astromech.

because you never know what fancies the pilot this day.
