They used to ball all established into one document called the FAQ, then they got split up. however much of the competitive format section of the FAQ was left out. Such as "Changing Dials in the activation phase will not be tolerated".

That's all stuff that is specific to running the event and belongs in the document that deals with those things. I don't see why you'd want to single out a particular instance of cheating instead of just having general language about cheating. It's against the rules to change your dial outside of the planning phase unless you have an ability that allows you to do so, I don't see what sets it apart from other forms of cheating and needs to be addressed specifically.

Because it did turn out to be a big deal and how they handled it back then was already specified. Which means Worlds 2017 wasn't the first time it happened, it wa the first time it was caught live on camera.

Rebel Sabine pilot is not feeling any love in this thread.

Im surprised no one has brought up:

Poe, Intensity, R2-D2, Comms Relay, Autothrusters (Or Vectored Thrusters), Black One - 45 points

Setup parallel to you home board edge, bank 1 in, boost bank 1 in, get a evade token that you can keep with comms relay, next turn 1 straight, focus, spend focus to flip card, then move to engage with an effectively 4 shield Poe. After engaging you can disengage to regen and get your evade token back again.

Hey, Intensity is the second way to give an Evade to Manaroo!!!

So sad that she's got nerfed.

As a Rebel Sabine player, I still would prefer PTL.

I actually don't mind it on her. You can't boost/br both before moving, but could still boost, get focus, then br after move. And I most often ptl on her to get focus/evade. She can't TL anyway (without tc) so you don't lose as much.

Also means you can generate 2 Focus a turn which means you get a better chance to recharge it so essentially 3 Actions a turn and no stress. Remember using PTL then stops her boost/rolling in the next turn.

I know you can dial in a green to instantly clear it, but Intensity is cheaper and doesn't limit you to the green on the dial. Hell you could even boost into a K-Turn and still have a focus.

Intensity looks cool, with lots of fun combos to try out...but one combo that seems much too powerful is Intensity + Primed Thrusters.

Stressed? Don't care, I can still BR or Boost. Double stressed? Nope, don't care, still getting my focus.

I get the feeling this should have had the same treatment as X7 : focus ACTION, not assign.

Thoughts?

Thoughts? You're going all Chicken Little over a card that isn't even out yet, and as has been pointed out, the combo you describe can be taken by 4 ships. Count 'em, four. Calm down man.

I overlooked that one, I actually think Intensity is actually not overpriced now.

I use Kanan on ptl Sabine so you can do any bonded to clear, but intensity means you don't need him

man threads like this make me wanna just quit the forum I ain't even kiddin

It's not a bad option on her, but when you factor in the recharge cost of Intensity, I still think PTL is the better investment. Especially if you have the points to put Kanan in the Shuttle.

There was a way before?

Can't we at least wait until the card has hit the bloody table before the tears start flowing?

This is getting ridiculous.

The nerf was so hard that she still made it plenty of times into the top 16 at words. So I would not bother that much, embrace her as bumpmaster, now if an evade to make her last much longer.

Still small ship only

What about R7-T1? Could be a fun/potent combo : boost, TL and focus in one action...

Yup, R7-T1 is a very good use of this, and worth noting that this allows EI to be used to get TL boost focus evade (or focus focus) as well.

Not sure where that's best used, but it certainly seems like someone should be able to make the most of it.

Trouble is that it means you're not using a regen droid.

ooh nice - Jake can boost twice, in the setup phase thanks to Intensity !

Unless you've found a way to break the once-per-round rule on actions, I'm afraid not.
