So last two store championships I made top 4 with a simple list

Chewbacca with Luke Skywalker and Predator

2 TLT Gold Squadron Y wings.

Went undefeated in Swiss both times and only lost to a Soontir who just evaded every shot I put into him when I got to top 4. I just need to work more for my in arc range 1-2 shots and hit Soontir with every shot initially.

Since Wave 8 came out I have been fiddling with ways to update the list for the better and just wanted some thoughts.

Chewbacca with Luke Skywalker and Predator

Chopper with Hera, Han Solo, TLT, and FCS

Chopper will always pretty much be stressed so he gets the most out of his target lock from Han. Just take the main gun shot when I can but for the most part it’s a TLT sniper

Chopper with Hera, Ezra, TLT, and FCS

Gold with TLT and R2 Astromech

Gold with TLT, Title, and R3-A2

Ezra should make chopper roll full on every shot because once again he is going to be loaded with stress. This is one point more than the previous list chopper but I think it’s a huge advantage. Then stress bot is still scary even if Yorr accompanies aces because Chopper’s main gun can make short work of Yorr.

Just wanted to open it up to some group think for ideas.

I don't like TLT on the Ghost, especially when you are pairing it with Hera. It has some pretty hefty moves on it and when reds are meaningless they are always open to you letting you get arc on or stick close to ships that don't have those options. As such, I think you are better off with the ABT over TLT, or at least dorsal. I like Ezra over Han but I'd rather have the TL for a full reroll if needed. At this point, there realyl isn't much of a reason fro chopper, since this isn't a bump build, or either you need to be able to fit in bump stuff or might as well drop to the rebel to save 2 points.

Chopper with Hera, Han, fcs and tlt is how I have mine kitted now. I like it.

I am going to try running it with a couple T-70's

I ran Chopper in an SC this past weekend and got quite a bit of use out of TLT and his ability. With his low PS, he is a good blocker.

I actually went with TLT for the very reason you are saying it is not good. I didn't run him with a phantom so no title. When i was out further I used the tlt with fcs. When I was in close it was primary.

My son ran double vcx Hera and Chopper and finished 5th. His only loss was to the 5 green awing crackshot swarm that won the SC.

Don't like Han on Chopper. You use your TL to change Focus. But next shot you will not have TL and that's bad. I would like Gunner or Erza on Chopper more.

As i tried Chopper w/FCS, Hera, Dorsal Turret, Erza and also with Gunner instead of Erza.

Erza is nice, you get crit and that can hurt a lot for people. If you go vs very high agility ships gunner is better, but in my test i went vs Boba Fet and Bossk, so Gunner was mostly useless as i got at least 1 hit through.

Also don't like TLT idea, as then you have Donut hole.

But if that works for you, good.

But with FCS, Han always allows you to use the target lock for the best results whether it is rerolling or changing focus to hits. and with the second shot you have it again with FCS so you should be getting the most out of it.

List in the OP looks like fun, I'd try it.
