Poll: Best and Worst Alt. Art Card in X-Wing

By TitaniumChopstick, in X-Wing

This weeks topic suggested by: SabineKey

For those of you unaware, the results from my last poll have been posted. This time leave TWO votes, one for the best, and one for the worst.

Note: "Alt." Is short for alternate. Couldn't edit the title.

I dont know what you mean by ALT, but we should all know by now that the worst card art is obviously Gold Squadron Pilot

I mean COME ON, How did this card even make it past Quality Check.

Best: C-3P0. I just really like the scene with Chewie carrying him in his backpack!

Worst: hard to choose... I really like all the alt arts. I guess Black Squadron Pilot... Just a little too CGI-looking for my tastes.

Best: I'm fond of alternate Soontir Fel. Very elegant and regal-looking.

Worst: Alternate Dash's face looks really off.

Alt art are the special cards with alternate artworks that are given as participation or often top 16 prizes at tournaments.

And yeah, that card, though not an alt art, totally stinks! The messed-up perspective makes it look like either the port engine is at an angle or the starboard engine is attached too far forward... Too bad, too... The colors and details are actually quite excellent...

For best, I'm going the alt art Veteran Instincts.

For Worst, I think it's the one for Red Ace.

Worst is Hera

Worst is Hera

Worst: Dash/Hera/Crosseyed-Corran

Best: Imperial Gunner. Love that hat.

Worst: Hera (Green Goblin) / Derpy Dash

Best: Recon Specialist

Best: Soontir Fel. Runner up: Disco Vader.

Worst: Derpy Dash or the Green Goblin.

Worst is either Dash or Academy Pilot. Dash's illustration is horrible, and the academy pilot is just a shot of a tie fighter, at least show a in cockpit shot for the alternate!

Best...maybe predator?

Again guys, feel free to suggest new topics as well. I'll do them all eventually if they are relevant to x-wing. First ones suggested get precedence.

None of the Rebels characters look right in their cards.

Pyscho Tycho looks good... he's probably my favorite. Also my vote for best. He's probably the only alt art non-movie still named pilot with a decent card art on the Rebels side... unless I'm forgetting someone. EDIT: I forgot Corran has a semi-decent alt art card, because it's relatively new.

Worst... would have to be derpy dash. although Heraboil is a close second.

Best is Fel. Almost died getting mine. Felt really bad that day. Sweating, low energy to the point I needed to sit at all times, moodyness. Really shouldn't have gone, but I reeeeeally wanted that card. Ended up having a crazy level flu and was bed ridden for a week after the tournament.

Worst is Howlrunner, or rather the lack of it.

from horrible to just dandy to awesome.

Best: Bossk. Nothing compares to me. Though Disco Vader is pretty fun.

Worst: Academy pilot, because it's of a scene with a Black Squadron pilot. I don't really mind the Rebel alt arts.

Best: Rebel VI / Biggs plastic (so wish I earned one of those)

Worse: Hera. Hera Hera Hera Hera

For me it's a toss up between "Wicked Witch of the West" Hera or "I'm totally not a kiddie fiddler" Dash...

Best: The Inquisitor / Bossk (everybody's doing two so I'll do two as well)

Worst: Hera / Luke Skywalker (it doesn't look like him very much)

I don't actually mind Dash. He's supposed to be a dork and he looks like a dork on the card.

Best: 3PO

Worst: Dash pilot

Best: C3PO
Worst: Lumberjack Dash and Hera
