KC final match was Tel/Zuckuss/Palob vs. Echo/Inquisitor/Palpmobile. Anyone know who won? I couldn't stay awake.

echo won. scum had such a strong start too.

Still, Zuckuss in the finals is much, much better than many are pegging the G1-A to reach. Going to have to see if the match is still available to watch.

It's still on the twitch, I just watched it. It was a good one, and it's nice to see Echo win a big tournament!

The G1A may be my favorite ship of the wave. I love to see it doing well! I will definitely be shamelessly copying and playing around with this list, whatever it is!

Also, I love that it was Echo in the Palpaces list. There's a temptation as a non-Imperial player to see palp in a list and write it off as "just another Palpaces list," but the variety is immense! That's a great sign, in my opinion.

I've always loved "Echo"! 6 funky ways to decloak is a lot of fun to fly, and a brain-tickler to beat. And the G-1A is the coolest ship of the wave, even if the Jumpmaster is getting all the press.

Any idea what the lists were? I heard rumor of no VI on Echo.

I was running echo. Lists were

Imperial- Echo- VI, ACD, FCS, Kallus

Inquisiter- Ptl, Autothrusters, Title

Omicron- Palpy 99 pts

Scum- Zuckuss- VI, FCS, Title, Tractor

Tel Trevara- Deadeye, R4, Proton torps, Extra munitions, Guidence, Boba

Palob- TLT, 4lom, Crack Shot4

He stripped Vi from echo with boba after a Crit, which is probably where you heard the rumor

Here are the lists that were top two in KC. I was running the scum and thought I had it in the bag after that first Torpedo shot.

Zuckuss is a boss and wrecks people, really surprised he hasn't seen more press. Congrats on coming back from that opener. If you want to see the match its on the twitch feed facesofderek.

Whoops, nvm

palob + 4Loam is a potent combo. i watched that scum finals list wreck a rebels list with lothar rebel and dash in earlier rounds. Zuckuss was a wrecking ball.

Is KC a regional? I can't find anything about it.

Technically in Independence, MO (home of Harry S. Truman). It's one of the cities in the KC metro area.

Anyone who questions Zuckuss probably hasn't played with him. That is quite a potent ability. Also, he is the cheapest PS9 capable "B Wing" like ship we have seen that doesn't need the EPT for something else (Keyan, Im looking at you).

Nice job LegionThree!

Dom just won the Chicago regional with howl crack mauler crack scourge crack black crack x3

The TIE Swarm is back.

Did Chicago and KS use cryodex? Given the performance of lists that were not jm5k or palp aces it would be interesting to see how many standard lists were brought.

One if the things I really love about the advent of the Crack Swarms is that it just feels right from a thematic perspective. Crack TIEs are just plain dangerous, and nobody wants to hang out in front if them. From a movie perspective (what happens in the movies vs the EU info), TIE Fighter are dangerous and having one on your tail is a bad thing.

For some it never left

The TIE Swarm is back.

I wasn't aware they ever really left. They maybe aren't widely used like Palp Aces or Uboats, or even TLT, but I think that is the mental factor at work more than anything. It just takes a top level player like Dom to run them at a top level for that many rounds without crucial mistakes or errors.

Also a lot of people either don't own enough ties or dislike lists that often go to time.

I didn't think this list would be as good as it was cracked up to be, but not I think it has a real shot of going far at worlds.

I saw a fascinating 5 TIE squad yesterday, that was fun to watch.

Do tell...

Sounds like something I would do. Sometimes I hate Target Locks.
