Cheaper to buy just the card on ebay.
not sure what the last 5 points are on plaob
Intel Agent, Cloaking Device, Stygium Particle Accelerator
Does anyone have sound?
No sound
Edited by slasherThe stygium mindlink combo is a stroke of genius.
They are still bad
Could there be luck involved into getting that far
Are his dice super hot each game?
What were his match ups?
They are still bad. The list is good in a meta without stress and when played very well.
@Krynn
The same player was in the cut of 2-3 other tournaments with the same list. So no its not luck.

In a stress meta, ala Y-Wings, they would fair better. Remember mind link only passes 1 stress. Stressing one out still means it gets it action if all the other ships do whites due to palob. Even then, only one ship has to do a green to allow actions if he's dead, or out of range. The dial is pretty good to allow flying around with stress for a while.
The 3 mangler scyk and autoblaster Palob stygium cloak, all mindlinked list, is super fun, but alas did not defeat the 3 Uboats..

This. I've played a mindlink list against a stress list (stresshog + Chopper + Wes), which I won. It's shockingly resilient because as long as one ship gets a focus they all do.

It did in round 1 or 2 he already faced boats and won (as far as i know).
You also need to keep in mind that every time a new upgrade comes out, you need to reevaluate a ship. Most of the "Scyks are bad" comments still linger from wave VI. Lots of people have been commenting on how well Mindlink works on Scyks, so the idea isn't completely new (though I've never seen this particular list before and I'm not saying the player shouldn't be commended for his ingenuity).

Don't get too excited, Mindlink only shares focus and stress.

But the Mindlink and Palob's sticky fingers can basically give each Scyk a Focus/Evade each turn for 1 point instead of 3 for PtL, and no immediate stress. Economy of points.
just as when t-65s take regionals, I'm inclined to say that it probably has more to do with the player being awesome rather than the mathematically inferior ships
so really, it should TO EVERYONE WHO SAID [insert player name here] WAS BAD (which would probably be no one, but hey it's a more accurate title)
Now Palob we already know is awesome, because Palob is a wonderful troll that deserves to be seen in more games

Palob can get focus from his ability. But the combo means that every ship in his list can have a focus evade stack with at least 3 agility, when 2 uboats that still have tokens drop their torps.

Palob and Torkil wrecked me at the Regionals in Toronto yesterday, and I fly them a lot and know not to underestimate them
Palob and Torkil are such devastating pilots, really showcasing what FFG can do when they remember that they designed the HWK to be one of the least combat capable ships in the game and then compensated with some hard hitting pilot abilities
either those two could probably break the game in an PS 5/3 version of most other ships. Hell, Palob in a

Sensor Jammer Starviper is my favorite pipe dream regarding this game
