Impression End SW Rebels season 3

By YariSamurai, in X-Wing Off-Topic

Hello fellow pilots,

I'm going to tell you about what I think of the last two episodes (the double-episode) of SW Rebels S3 (excluding Twin Suns).

Feel happy to disagree with me but I didn't think it was good. It was 0k, not as ood as the end of Season 2.

First of all: You saw too little of Thrawn being the badass guy he is: most of the time he was just standing around in the bridge, I was expecting more hand-to-hand combat after that episode with the training droids.

Second: Too little emphasis on Space battle: It seemed like there were only regular TIE fighters in the air, nothing special. A bit disappointing when you consider that Thrawn had been preparing for this attack for a long time. I also felt that there was a lack of Fighters involved in general, it seemed both sides had 15 fighters in combat max. (15 each), which feels a bit lame. That means every Star Destroyer only deployed 3! I know this is a kid's show and the Production Team has to keep it simple for them to understand what is going on, but I was a little disappointed that the master tactitian Thrawn's plan was simply encircling the rebel fleet and shooting everything. A bit more tactics would have been great.

Third: Paper Star Destroyers: It seemed like the Star destroyers were made out of (low-quality) cardboard. They blew up faster than regular TIE fighters, after only two Y-Wing bombs hit them.

Fourth: Maybe I was expecting too much, but I thought the Mandalorians were going to highjack the Interdictor.

Fith: The Chimaera, one of the most badass Star Desroyers in canon, didn't do anything.

I just want to note that I didn't hate it, I just didn't like it as much as the end of Season 2. The best part for me of these two episodes was seeing the different types of Mandalorian Starfighters beside each other / fighting.

Tell me what you think about this episodes,
