Squad list Ketsu / Dengar

By bayushi0, in X-Wing Squad Lists

Hello here,

It sur been a while now since I try to optimise this list and I have played pretty much a good number of match now...

Dengar ketsu (98)

Dengar (50) - JumpMaster 5000
Predator (3), 4-LOM (1), Overclocked R4 (1), Punishing One (12)

Ketsu Onyo (48) - Lancer-class Pursuit Craft
Veteran Instincts (1), Zuckuss (1), Burnout SLAM (1), Burnout SLAM (1), Shadow Caster (3), Countermeasures (3)

The options are interesting (SLAM to both save or be aggressive with ketsu // countermesure to help VS the torpedo). But for me it is impossible to beat the triple scout / the 2 Kwings / the biggs kanaan (with the 4 damages per turn !) and event the new list of Paul H seems to be unbeatable for me...

So what do you think I can improve?

Maybe I did not correctly handle the games, but what kind of tactics you can use against this strong new lists?

DO you think this list is finally not relevant in the actual meta? :/

Double Burnout SLAM doesn't work - they both have to be discarded whenever you do a SLAM.

Dropping one and replacing COuntermeasures with Engine Upgrade will be much more effective. Your opponent can't torp you if you're at range 1 of them...

I ran a similar list without burn out and ptl on dengar. Not too bad, but has some weaknesses if you can't get your arcs. Great against small ships, aweful against DeciVader...

Yes. Engine Upgrade on Ketsu is righteous.

Thanks, that is a good idea.

I will try it again with it, but I guess that this list is not a very good one...finally :(
