New toy

I think Duchess is an excellent pilot. The only thing OL has over Duchess is a comm relay for action efficiency. Duchess definitely wins on unpredictable flight patterns. It comes down to what you're flying against I guess. Personally I prefer predator Duchess.

I've been loving predator but it was that magic 26pt slot that I'm liking

If I'm fair, at 26 points I think the better ship is actually a point less. VI Pure Sabacc at 25 points is probably a better investment, but if you have the space I think predator Duchess is the better option. Of course it also depends on if you see a lot of ps 9 in your local meta.

I feel Dutches or Sabacc fill a nice roll at that point cost, but OL is going to be a better closer. If you can fit (I haven't run the math) All three with maybe a pair of tie academy pilots for blocking could be a fun and interesting combo.

EDIT: Did the Math:

"Omega Leader" (26) - TIE/FO Fighter

Juke (2), Comm Relay (3)

"Duchess" (26) - TIE Striker

Veteran Instincts (1), Adaptive Ailerons (0), Lightweight Frame (2)

"Pure Sabacc" (24) - TIE Striker

Adaptive Ailerons (0), Lightweight Frame (2)

Academy Pilot (12) - TIE Fighter

Academy Pilot (12) - TIE Fighter

Was thinking maybe Countdown might fit in there for longevity in replace of one of the strikers and Deathfire could be fun instead of the ties. BUT, for the points, I think OL is still a better closer than Dutchess.
