Vader and two Glaives... crituque please

By Benvader, in X-Wing Squad Lists

So I am going to go with this list just to see how it works and I have not seen anyone else talk about it. Maybe I missed it or maybe this is going to suck and I am the last to know. Let me know what you think.

Vader Juke Title with ATC

Glaive with Juke x7 x2

100 points

It is simple but I think it should hit hard. I can use juke to force a crit with ATC on Vader or force token use. Then I have the two Glaives forcing through hits.

I think this works well, I tried something very similar with OL. They all had juke, and just shoved their existence on everyone.

Looks pretty strong on paper.

Play test it and report back. :)

Yeah I am gonna run it online and at the shop

without EU on Vader, I far prefer the inquisitor

Yeah i hear you on EU on vader. I was thinking a defensive stance on him with focus evade most turns.

I have tried Vader both with and without EU. I found him completely unplayable without it.

If you plan to Focus/Evade a lot, maybe take Accuracy Corrector instead of ATC? That way you never worry about offensive output and you can use your actions totally for defense. Juke will help those 2 hits matter, as well. You also get a point for initiative that way.

Yeah I know that AC would make a better defensively focused Vader but if I am going the Juke route I want to push the Crit through as much as possible. Since I don't have EU I am thinking that initiative is really not that important as I will be turtling up more than trying to arc dodge. Just my thoughts but I will try it both ways to see. Maybe the inquisitor would be a better choice here so maybe I will try that too.

I have been running Fel with two x7 glaives but the turret meta where I play makes it hard for Fel to last too long.

Whut?

How is Fel struggling against turrets? That's his primary food group...

Yes But if all the ships shooting at you are ps 10 with turret support so no shields and having tokens stripped takesy favorite pilot down quick
