Is scum quad TLT still competitive?

I shall from now on sir, I shall ?

It's tier 2 or 1.5 maybe.

A lot of things can hold their own against 2-3 Y-Wings and it's pretty easy to get the list down to that.

Kylo RAC can instantly turn the list into a 3 ship build.

Lone Wolf Rey Dash is a good sponge.

TLT Miranda outcancers TLT Y-Wings.

Bossk Ketsu can just kill a Y-Wing outright.

Parattanni beats it. Fenn has autothrusters and mobility, Asajj has mobility and is a huge sponge, Manaroo/whatever other 3rd ship you use can deal some damage.

Most lists that you see now have a good chance against it. If the quad TLT player has the advantage, it's probably not insurmountable.

I would suggest trying 3 scum Ys with TLT, unhinged astromech and vectored thrusters and then a base quadjumper with patter analyzer and space tug tractor array.

I would suggest something based on that:

Jakku Gunrunner (15)
Ketsu Onyo (1)
Pattern Analyzer (2)
Spacetug Tractor Array (2)

Syndicate Thug (18)
Twin Laser Turret (6)
R4 Agromech (2)

Syndicate Thug (18)
Twin Laser Turret (6)
R4 Agromech (2)

Torkil Mux (19)
Twin Laser Turret (6)
Dengar (3)

Total: 100

The TLTs are less easy to fly than Unhinged ones and the HWK is a challenge on its own, but they are far more lethal having every shot modified and Torkil introduces the ability to PS-kill someone. The list is more enjoyable as it has shenanigans. No idea if it is better, though.
