Are regular Saboteurs still worth it post nerf? I could do

Boba

Dengar

Temple

Gideon

eHK

Sabs

I think regular Saboteurs are still pretty good filler, even with the loss of speed and reduction in pierce. Their attacks are still really strong for their cost.

IMO they are just OK but just because of their red+yellow combo. Comparing to elites they are losing 1 movement, 1 innate accuracy and priority target ability which all combine to a big loss in effectiveness for just 2 points.

Edit: for 5 points though i think they should be fine, cant thing of anything better to fill the 5 point role for that particular list

Just tried this out. Went alright:

Boba

Dengar

Gideon

3PO

Temp

eHired Guns

eTuskens

If dengar keeps underperforming (he's insane against melee units, ok against anything else) I might swap him for a 2nd group of eTuskens.

This is what I have been toying with.

Interesting. Do you back it up with a lot of droid command cards, or? How do you envision playing it? Except for Boba, it's very squishy looking.

The list you played it against was all ranged units, but RGs and Saboteurs will still be seen, and he's great against both of them. Throw a stun on a sab from R4 and go away and he will not have the range to hit you back after clearing the stun

My command cards are almost all droid cards such as repair and devotion

I did this exact thing. Elite HK's and Reg HK's have both ascended to droid godhood for me. Backed with Boba Fett and C3P0, I was regularly doling out 4 dice attacks. MHD-9 was underwhelming, but his recover action is a good way to ensuree figures live that :one more turn"

Yeah I'm not giving up on Dengar just yet. But i wouldn't mind seeing what two groups of eTuskens can do either.
