How about Ello Atsy + VI? Being able to pull off white K-turn/Tallon rolls then boost is probably the closest Rebels can get to Phantom-esque maneuvers, which makes him particularly slippery and deadly in 1v1 situations.

I think I like the poe build best.

Jake & Vader, whilst both very good and hard to pin down both suffer from subpar primary attacks. Prockets on Jake kinda fixes this (and may be good as long as you have a small turnout) but at the end of the day it's only one shot against one ship.

Fel is fel, and could very easily carry the day, but I dislike the lack of durability. He lacks poe's staying power - one bad roll could take him straight out of the running.

Luke is good, but poe is just better.

I do have one question though: Why no lone wolf?

It seems a natural choice since it will trigger 100% of the time, and should be way better than predator because I don't think you'll see any PS2 pilots there.

Tbh I forgot about LW.

It is a quick fire 1v1 multi round thing not a free for all just so I'm clear (i probably should have said that)

Edit: it's a normal game night so we would only get 3 (at a push) 100pts games in a night. We just wanted to mix it up a little with the 3ish hours we have.

Single opponent changes everything.

Jake and Vader are now looking pretty good since the ordnance allows them to hit really, really hard compared to the other ships on your list.

I have to say out of the two I think Vader is the stronger build purely because of the pilot skill difference.

But then again I'm also thinking that a cheap generic firespray with a few select upgrades wouldn't be terrible either (assuming that comes in under 40 - I don't have a great deal of familiarity with the ship).

Tough, decent primary, aux arc, plenty of upgrade options. Might surprise a few people.

Generally in a furball or 1v1, large base ships aren't allowed. The amount of hit points you have over your opponent is too great an advantage to make this particular game style fair.

Its allowed in my meta, and far from dominant.

Of course, we play 35 point games rather than 40, so there's a much larger constraint on them (No 3 attack turrets with a huge load of HP, for instance).

As promised an update on how it went.

Very well. None of that games dragged on and a few people said they quite liked the "lightning" rounds. Had we not had to stop for a while in the middle we could of managed 5 games.

The guy that won won all of his games. I won 2 lost a close one.

I ended up with Jake + Vi + Plt + Prockets + title and I loved it. In one game I one shot a phantom on turn 2.

ROughly what was the distribution of ships?

ROughly what was the distribution of ships?

We had a jake, redline, Vader, whisper, Horton+TLT, Wedge, Poe, Farlander and Fel. There were going to be more of us but a lot of people cancelled at the last min. We were going to have a Dace Bonearm but the guy messaged and said he had such a bad day at work that he just wanted sleep.... At 6pm

That's really not the distribution I would have expected.

I'm guessing either the Fel or the Whisper won overall?

Edit: the guy playing Vader never even had to roll a defence die. I'm glad I didn't have to play against him. Had we played more games I probably would have had to

Ah, I missed that there was a VI Vader there. Yeah, that makes sense.

Soontir ought to be able to *survive* him, but would still lose on points.

I'm still gonna guess that Miranda/TLT/C3PO/Conner Net probably would have beaten everything else there, though.

I was worried that would happen but no took her. Someone said they were thinking about taking her bet instantly felt dirty on a single ship 1v1
