I think he is also running Jonus, like any true hero of the empire...
Good luck to all of you at Worlds!
Updates from my spies at Worlds:
JJ and Justin both got 10-1 wins.
Ardeadhel got a 7-4 win.
That's really all I've got.
Ardeadhel playing his MC30 special?
Exact builds please, would be greatly appreciated!!! 
I'm excited for tomorrow's finals! Anyone know how big the fields were?

72 sounds around the same from last year non???
I thought we were closer to 80 last year? 44 on Day 1A, I remember.
Either way, that means almost 40% attendance at breakfast.

Ain't that a B!?

Yeah. Got my spies in place feeding me info. So it's like I am there! Only I'm not. I'm sitting alone on my couch in my Steel Squadron T-Shirt eating bratwurst and squirting steroids into my eyes so that the chemotherapy doesn't screw up my eyesight.
I'll be there next year, with some horrible monstrosity of a list that'll schlep its way to top 16 through pure audacity.
Almost 60% of players have taken Most Wanted.
Between Solar Corona and Superior Positions, we have over 50% of players going for Massive Deployment Advantage in their Navigation slot.
Defense is somewhat balanced between a Deployment Advantage (Hyperspace), Forcing A Battle (Contested Outpost), and Probably Just For The Points (Fighter Ambush).
75 players per FFGOP
Doesn't change the numbers that much. 56% Most Wanted. 52% DEPLOYMENT ADVANTAGE.
the real question is: how many picked targeting beacons?
Someone did, becuase you can see JJ and his opponent Playing it in the picture they posted.
I may have had some inside knowledge with my Flechette Raider article 
JJ, Ninja, and I have been discussing it. Given the predominance of Ace Holes it seemed like the right meta call. JJ is indeed running a slight variation of his World Cup list. CNinja is running something similar, but with Jerry instead of Vader. I'm not sure if he decided to go with his 6 activation Demo/double Kitten/Raider or 5 activation ISD/Demo/Raider.

Was that game a 10-1 crushing???

Yes
Sad no strategic making it into the mix, I think there is a lot of potential there... As far as reds go, most wanted just seems like default in competitive mode, hopefully a non most wanted list takes down worlds, but I wouldn't bet on it...
Well, that's just "Most Popular". That doesn't represent all of them.

Hopefully a non-Most Wanted who bid to get Second Player goes on to win on the stream.
Like interdictor station assault!!! Save the dream!!!
