Self explanatory mostly. All PS4 or higher for U-Boats. The Ghost is nasty with protons, turning three dice into crits! Ghost has Deflectors instead of FCS so he can withstand other alpha strikes. With Deflectors, three hits from Triple U-Boats would gain 3 shields, kind of like cancelling one of them. Also helpful against other hard hitters as well. Blount sets up the first hit. Talas become blockers.

I was debating Blount or another Tala. But Blount will make the alpha strike hit at pretty much full force with everyone having focus and TLs. I want FCS on Chops, but If the Ghost goes down, the Zs arent much afterward, so Deflectors can give the Ghost an extra round or two of life.

Unfortunately I only own 1 Z95 and only two chips at the moment. Gonna have to borrow some to test this out I guess
