INTRODUCTION. Greetings X-Wingers! After a long hiatus from the game... 2 waves actually... i have returned to playing the coolest tabletop game ever! There may be a few here that will remember me as The_Brown_Bomber... If you were an early advocate for the Lambda Shuttle then you are from the same era... believe it or not that ship was once written off as totally unplayable in competitive formats... it was the most underrated ship for a while, even before palp-mobiles were a thing.

MAIN TOPIC. Scum seems to have finally arrived as a force in competitive play. What 3-4 lists would you rate as scums most competitive tournament lists. Im guessing Dengaroo will still be one of them? Its popularity seems to have lessened a bit right now. Mindlinked lists are a thing right now. Manaroo looks like a solid choice even without his partner in crime Dengar. Fenn is a monster and its hard not to play a competitive list that doesnt use him as your heavy hitter. Shadowcaster looks very solid, especially with damage mitigation from Latts Razzi on a scale not seen since the days of Fat Han.

Interested in what your thoughts are. Post away.

woohoo, my post got approved!

for the record i was requesting top tier scum list before the dominance of a certain scum list at regionals.

Mindlined uboats are still tier 1 I think, though the matchup against parattani is difficult (not unwinnable)
