For a competitive Hangar Bay that's upcoming I'm running Paratanni. This tournament is not using the distinct rule and I'm trying to find what I want as a second list......I know it's vulnerable (somewhat) to stress........what is a good pair, hahaha, bad joke intended?
Hangar Bay-Parattani and ???
If you're going with something solid in list one, i'd go with something fun for list two. Stress/ion control. Bombs. Swarm. A crazy gimmick list. Build that dark horse, the underdog.
The list I have ran recently with it is gimmicky for sure, I just rarely choose it. My issue is this........That list is Wampa, typical Whisper (minus Kallus plus Kylo) and Lt Dormitz with title, hyperwave, Palp and collision detector.........long story short, TLT lists and Miranda are a bit scary for a list with either Fenn or Whisper as they can't get caught pretty much ever..........maybe I should have asked what other list can help me deal with a stress list and/or Miranda and TLT buddies???
Having tried to fight Attanni based lists with a Stressmule, they are not that badly hindered by Stress. It cuts down their options slightly as Reds and repositioning get harder but the JM5K, Lancer and Fang all have so many Greens that someone will be able to act as a Focus battery and any R4s will then be able to convert those into TLs. Stress helps a bit against Attanni but certainly doesn't cripple it.
As for your Hangerbay list, I would probably keep it simple and go for dual or triple Defenders.
