Wedge IS amazing thought. Hands down best rebel pilot for his cost

I genuinely agree. I meant my comment non-sarcastically! (Hard to tell on this thread!)

I am amused by the differing opinion from all the podcasters. No one expects him to be Super Luke, which they seem to think... He has a clear job, and does it excellently at a nice price point.

Wedge is pretty good for his cost. I've said it quite a few times, Wedge is not an end game ship, he is not even an ace. He is just a solid all around ship that is good for the early/mid game. Expect him to die. Don't build him into a list as your win condition. I like to keep him cheap, servos and crackshot.

I’ve heard rumors of wave 2 on the 28th of November.

Over under on points documents released: 8 am E(S/D)T on Thanksgiving.

Also, @Rytackle Did California vote to try to get rid of the time switching?

A comparison I've been making recently is a base Wedge at 52 pts vs a Barrage Miranda at 54 pts. It's common in most of the Rebel 4 ships builds to have 2 pts to work with doing that. I don't know of anyone trying something like that, but I wonder if that's some of the exploration that just hasn't been done that should be.

Wedge's motto "I'll roll out of arc and then hit them for 2-3"

Wedge needs a more accurate motto.

Wedged in there pretty good? Could recommend amputation.

It's more like a general discussion thread where most of the posters are known tournament goers instead of random kitchen table players.

Is it? I need to get more known. And know more of the knowns, cuz I only know who a handful are.

I'M AN OUTLIER.

If a random dude says "sabine shuttle is superstrong" because he beated his wife with it, it has another meaning than a random dude saying the same after actually doing good with her at a tournament, at least for my purpose.

Sabine shuttle is comparable to Wedge value-wise, if not better

Wedge may not be the best rebel ship, but he is absolutely the best at making opponents tilt.

Thane is solidly in the tier of "win moar". His ability really doesn't proc often, if ever. So many different mechanics have to align for his abilty to be valuable and even then, you have to be able to flip a crit that will actually matter. Best part about him is the fact that he's initiative 5 and in an X-Wing. His abilty could be blank and I would still play him all the same.

Oh, hey. I didn't mean to imply good. I mean, I just haven't seen threads where people declare they're quitting due to Wedge. Whine yes, quit no. Thane?
