2017 System Open Series Results

By MajorJuggler, in X-Wing

Well congrats to Kenny!

so, any conditions used in the open?

It was before wave 10 fully released. U wings and Strikers were legal, no Upsilons, Sabine Tie, or Quadjumper.

....which means we'll get to see them in action at Yavin next week. Yay, can't wait for that.

The rest of wave 10 is so fun. The next two are going to be fun to see shake out.

His list is one of few I am afraid of flying Parattanni. This firepower properly directed can kill almost everything.

Now you have my attention. May I ask the list?

Fenn Rau + PTL, AT, title

Old Teroch + VI, AT, title

Zuckuss + VI, Dengar, Collision Detector, Inertial Dampeners, title

14 red dices at close and stripping tokens. Fragile, but brutal.

That might be the glassiest glass cannon ive ever seen taken seriously.

Bump in case anyone wants to discuss this weekend's results in this thread

Parattani wins Yavin

Rebel list with Ahsoka, Hera and Zeb (shuttle) came 2nd, only non scum list in the top 8.

The Parattani Invitational ;)

How funny would it be if parattanni wins every single system open?

It would be very funny, until the front page is filled with nothing but nerf threads. ;)

Hoth will just be 200 people playing parattanni.

I will be at hoth.

My name is AdmiralThrawn and I pledge not to play parattanni.

So who was the winner? I have a new friend to meet.

well, I played precisely zero Paratanni builds, but that might be because day one went horribly wrong with a 2-4 record so I was hanging around to bottom tables before drop. Managed to win a Hangar Bay event on day two, which was nice.

It was great to see so many European X-Wing players in attendance as well, I had fun games with players from the Netherlands, Poland and Portugal, I think I'd really like to attend an event in Europe myself at some point!

I will be at Naboo. And I can't promise anything about not playing Paratanni, that list is fun :P

Winner was Mishary Al-Faris .

I'm not sure why, but what I got out of the Yavin top 8 is the Europeans have an unhealthy love for the jumpmaster.

Hard not to use the most broken ship in the game, I guess.

European events generally large, and visited by out of towners, so it's harder to read the local meta.

I know several people who've attended 6 regionals this season. For a US resident, this would be very hard. For an EU citizen, it can be just a 50 euro plane ticket or a 4 hour drive.

This inability to predict a local meta, plus Mindlink, makes a squad like Manaroo or Defenders quite tempting.

Fixed typo. 8 to 6.

Top 8 (actually top 9, Krystoff had to drop) from Yavin

Faan Yavin ? Faan Langelann I think.

Mishary Alfaris will be Al-Faris, he is from Kuwait.

You are right, something went wrong from the different copy and paste

I will be at Hoth with the missus

We will not play Parattanni (but then we won't win either, regardless of squad)
