Can you use it in a squadron without the ghost?

Yes.

Yes.

Neato. Second question. Is there a better ship for 18 pts for rebels?

Not a dumb question, it was a question asked and answered.

Yes.

Depends what you need it for, but in most cases I'd prefer to have a Green Squad Pilot with Crack Shot, adaptability, chardaan. 3 attack is nice, but 2/2/2 for the rest dies quick.

Zeb, by himself, isn't that great.

however, with the new Sabine tie coming out you will have a lot of options coming out at that price point!

I wanna try Zeb with Biggs.

Thanks everyone!

Ezra with Elusivenss and Chewbacca is a cockroach.

Sabine with PtL, Kanan and Autoblaster Turret is a mini-Dash.

Both lots of fun, but not the 18-points you're looking for. My favorite 18-point rebel is Lt Blount with Tracers. He boosts the action efficiency for the rest of the squad, and his ability to strip Stealth Device is invaluable.

For a cheap Ezra build I'm really thinking Rage and Inspiring Recruit could be good. Plus a hull upgrade.

For 18 points - nada, to squishy to be played just like that, also the dial is only soso by itself. But if you are willing to boost it to ~23-25 points you can get some interesting builds:

Ezra - LoneWolf , Hera - 23points. I was able to fight X7 Defender 1v1 with this build.

Sabine - ATB, Intel - 24 points. Just autoblaster turret build

Zeb - Chewie, 6 hp , 3 attack for 22 points. Not bad, not bad at all. That is basically xwing with BR and better dial.

Zeb - Chewie, Dorsal/TLT - same as above but with turret. TLT is kinda points overkill (28....) but dorsal (25) is acceptable.

Notice you also got mod slot empty in all those builds for some luxury if you can afford it but i STROGNLY advice against going above 25 points with shuttle.

I heard some successes with Hera but i cannot elaborate on that as i never used her
