Hey ppl!

Trying something old with something new

Quickdraw 29 points

Expertise (4) Fire-Control System (2) Pattern Analyzer (2 Special Ops Training (0) Lightweight Frame (2)

Soontir Fell 27 Points

Royal Guard TIE (0) Push the Limit (3) Autothrusters (2) Stealth Device (3)

Pure Sabacc 22 Points

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

Well i was thinking, Soontir is as he allways have been, a bit more fragiel in todays 5 dice meta but still

Pure Sabacc is by far my favorite Striker pilot, been doing well when flying him and hes 5 dice range 1 shot is a thing to fear, and beeing 8 ps will with alerons and barellroll will make it eazier to set that shoot up before he gets blown into smithereeens.

And last

Quickdraw , Have flown her allot, but i need that extra stoppingpower, thats why she has both FCS and Expertise , costy i know, but if i get the dubelltapp with TL and Exp , its going to hurt for my opponent

What do you ppl think?

A PTL Soontir is hard to fly right now in our local meta and I rarely see him fielded. We're seeing a lot of K-Wings w/ bombs and Sabine, Ahsoka Tano @ PS9 w/ BMST action hunting stressed ships, Imp peeps fielding more and more lists with Kylo, HotCop showing up on high PS ships like PS10 RAC and VI Whisper, etc. A lot of ways to circumvent Soontir's traditional defenses. If it were me, I'd might consider Carnor Jax over Soontir perhaps w/ VI, Royal Guard, Hull Upgrade and Stealth Device or Shield Upgrade. His pilot ability is more valuable then Soontir's right now imo.

I ran Backdraft with the same setup you have for Quickdraw. It functions as desired.

I think Strikers and Interceptors lack the offensive dice modification needed to punch through token stacks. Soontir with Targeting Computer instead of Stealth Device. Sabaacc with Lone Wolf instead of VI. More glass, but with better cannons.
