You get to vote on what I fly at next SC!

By zerotc, in X-Wing Squad Lists

I'm just retiring a very similar list.

Mine swaps Crackshot for Juke on Howlrunner and drops one Black with Crack for naked Wampa. Matches up well vs pretty much every list I've played. Can't always say the same for my flying of it sadly hence putting it aside in favour of less ships. I either kick ass or make a silly mistake as my brain turns to mush. Either way I've never had a matchup I didn't think I could win.

Juke seems golden on Howlrunner. Evading with her makes her a little less attractive as does Wampa. For 14 ps he can seriously mess with target prioritisation, especially the likes of Fel and Corran when he has Howlrunner support for his shots.

Glad to see someone getting mileage out of it as I've been a long time advocate of VI Vader in the current ace heavy meta.

I am thinking of running your list also. What sorts of match-ups do you feel would give you trouble? What do you think of having Soontir instead of Vader?

I think a very good Corran/Superdash player would give me trouble. I was also really scared of Palp Aces. The one I faced in elimination just got caught with his Aces in the open, but I think if we had played again the match could have turned out completely different.

Soontir instead of Vader could work for sure. Your main threats are VI Vader and Poe, both of which you can block with Soontir with some consistency.
