Lothal Open

Imperial OP, pls nerf ;)

I'm happy it's not Paratanni all the way down, it'll cut down on the whining! I'm toying with something new myself, but I don't have time to do much more than headsim it due to real life commitments.

Only if it doesn't win and was also one of a lot of other Paratanni that were there;)

Love seeing atypical Imperial lists at the top!

Nope, He plays double Backdraft with bombs. It why is so high ;) (ofc mistake, edited now)

Backdraft with bombs would be so good.

Quickdraw/Tomax/Carnor vs Commonwealth Defenders in final.

Both players form Poland, we sort of conquered Germany this time ;)

Hooray, Imperials get a System Open! Go Quickdraw! SFs show no mercy!

Rumors are Golonka is leading Quickdraw to victory. Match isn't over yet, but highly in favor of Quickdraw/Tomax/Carnor.

Golonka is surname/nickname (actually both ;) ) of one of the palyers. He's also runner-up from last year Tatooine Open, so not some random guy :)

Hold up. Am I to understand that the players who have been probably playing against Paratanni the longest beat Paratanni? It's obvious what needs to be done.

NERF POLAND!

Last info ist that Commonwealth Defenders eventually turned tides of battle in their favor.

So Lothal Open for Radek Dmochowski (PL) playing Commonwealth Defenders.

Final:

There seems to be an error with that video. Its a system open final but patatanni doesn't win.

Is it bad that I had to pause for a moment to remember what Deathfire actually did?

It is, Deathfire rocks! :P

Congratulations to Radek! 4 down, 4 to go.

Deathfire is a beautiful little ship. He picked up a couple of strong finishes (wins?) early in the regionals season and from there I gave him a try - he's the closest the Imperials have to the K-Wing as his barrel/bomb is sort of similar to the SLAM/bomb. Costs a fair bit less too.

I'm encouraged by these results, hopefully they're not just a blip and represent people finding a solution. I believe in non-PTL Carnor Jax, which I think I told @Oldpara privately a while back.

So, question: is the Targeting Synchroniser on Quickdraw allowing Carnor to reroll his attacks? I'm not clear on whether that would work or not. I think it shouldn't work?

I have the same question. RAW it doesn't seem to work but the point cost makes me wonder...

Yeah, like if that's how it actually works then that upgrade instantly goes from 2-star to 4-star, I think. Especially on FCS-carrying TIE/sf

We had this discussion o Polish forum already - as i recall conclusion was that normal rerolls from target lock "is game effect instructing you to spend a target lock". No idea if that is correct, or how Golonka played it on Lothal.

I can see it would work if you had a target lock on the opponent but wanted to discard Quickdraw's TL instead of yours, but I feel like the wording on how you reroll attack dice with a target lock requires you to have a TL to begin with and activate the effect. Once the effect is activated you can replace the discarding of the TL with Quickdraws, but I don't see how you can activate it to begin with if you don't have the TL there.

In final there was Tomax, not Deathfire ;)

But it means even moah bombers can into Meta ;)
