Hey All,
I'm relatively new to x-wing but want to start looking at store champs for the competitive side.
Toying with the following, any advice appreciated.
Dash YT-2400
Heavy Laser Cannon
Lando
Keyan in B-Wing
e2 upgrade
Kyle
Adv. Sensors
Gold Sqd Pilot (was toying with a-wings here too but points are tight)
100 pts even

Kyle isn't always best on Keyan, partly because you won't use that Focus due to your stress functioning in its place! Advanced Sensors and PTL are a better pairing.
Thanks hanssaunders,
I assumed I'd be able to get the focus defensively on Keyan. My group play a lot of low PS ships, but I suppose in a tournament meta, I'm probably facing higher PS ships most of the time.
What would be best for the 3rd ship? I threw in the naked gold squad Y as its tough, but I'm thinking a more maneuverable A-wing might be better allowing me to block or get into rear arcs.

You won't use the focus on attack, but you can still use it on defense. Your poor, one die defense.

Honestly, I find Lando to be too unreliable for tournaments (I've seen people win with him and finish games cursing him), so I'd recommend recon specialist, which also couples well with lone wolf on the Outrider (if you can reliably get it to activate).
I also agree on dropping Keyan's crew, though if you insist on one I can see an argument for 3PO or an intel agent, but I still feel that those are too many points on a B-Wing. Finally, as I don't think that a Y-Wing is worth it without a turret, I'd swap it for an A-Wing or Z-95 depending on my points. Maybe something like this:
Dash Rendar — YT-2400 36
Lone Wolf 2
Heavy Laser Cannon 7
Recon Specialist 3
Outrider 5
Ship Total: 53
Keyan Farlander — B-Wing 29
Push the Limit 3
Advanced Sensors 3
Ship Total: 35
Bandit Squadron Pilot — Z-95 Headhunter 12
Ship Total: 12
