This really makes me salty... If FFG is going to make massive nerfs, why couldnt they do it during Store Champ season or any time not right before a major tournament like Hoth or Worlds (jm5k)? This is honestly ridiculous. I spend 4 months preparing and $700 on hotel/entry fees and FFG has essentially made that all worthless, unless I can cram in some more practice in the 2 local game nights I have before Hoth...

DAMS... BRAH!

Using all Homing Missiles also means you can avoid all those Evade tokens from /X7 and Latts Razzi

HMs don't help against Latts as she adds an evade result directly to the roll while HM just prevents you from spending evade tokens.

Homing Missiles can still protect you from the evade Lats gives simply by being firable at range 3 where she can't stress you...

We didn't have a store champs season this time around. Worlds was in Novemember with only about a week or two before the first of the Regionals was held. System Open events started during Regionals. Regionals have just ended and Worlds is again in May. It looks like FFG might have chosen a window that didn't interfere with Regionals and gave people time to adjust for Worlds. Unfortunately, that bites some Systems Open players in the ass.

Due to the split with FFG Worlds this year we've had one long tournament season. There's not really any time that they could announce changes that would have made everyone happy.

I dunno, the day after wave 10 dropped would probably have kept a lot of people a lot happier than waiting 2 months with a bunch of unclear cards...

I was specifically referring to the balance changes. The actual clarifications and answering of frequently asked questions should happen frequently and soon after releases.

A lot of people would have liked to have seen those earlier too. As evidenced by the fact that that's been like, half the discussion in this forum for the past 3 or 4 months.
