Boba Fett is the New Tractor Bean

By ObiWonka, in X-Wing

1. Place Boba Fett Crew on a high PS ship.

2. Get a critical damage onto the hull of a U-Wing equipped with Pivot Wing in Attack position.

3. Use Boba Fett to force Pivot Wing to be discarded, or flipped face-down so now it is Pivot Wing (Landing).

4. Shoot said U-Wing with lower PS ships.

Voila! You've been tractor bean'd!

Scum as its best

Boba would force the card to be discarded entirely, so neither effect would remain. See the tournament rules for Dual Cards for how this works in practice.

However, Boba is unlikely to be that rtelevant - by the time you land a face up card on a 4/4 ship with 1 agility, it's usually either dead or one hit off dead anyway.

Thank you. At least some people read the rules.

And there are a lot of better options to "tractor-beam" (reduce agility) (mostly more than once)

Outmaneuver

Intimidation

Tail gunner

Latts Razzi pilot

Wedge

(Crack shot)

...obviously. This was clearly a joke.

Not to mention you know... tractor beams.

But TBs don't do any damage. Tail Gunner can only be used on Arc (at the cost of a red) or Firespray (at the cost of taking a firespray). Intimidation removes focus fire (unless coupled with Zeb), Wedge requires the use of an expensive T65, OM can be difficult to activate based on the defender, and like crack requires the use of the EPT, and Latts, well nothing's wrong with Latts except Bossk is only 2 points more.
