Rexler can't be that bad, but players can be.

Rexler is amazing. At crossroads, his ability was basically a mangler cannon/thane.

I hear the best faction is the one that can field 0-0-0.

Does this make all future factions pointless?

For me, it's the ETA-2.

Man, those look good. Old Republic knows how to make a pretty spaceship.

Curious if FFG will make those true-to-scale? They will make a TIE Adv v1 look chunky by comparison.

the ETA-2 would be SO SMALL if they didn't tweak the scale. Who even knows if we'll eventually get it. Just look at Mel's Miniatures comparison.

That picture made me very excited for the spoilers, very disappointed when I realized it was homebrew 1.0, and very very confused by those ARC bases...

Ah yes, Jedi 2, my favorite character from the movies.

He's right up there with Redline! They're in all my favorite scenes.

Do we got stats on what the best performing Luke build is?

Of course, Supernatural/S-Foils. But curious on which Astromech has had better results overall, and if Proton Torps is truly a requirement for success on Luke.

I dont have the stats to back this up but from what I can tell Regen is not being used a ton. Like rebel damage mitigation cards it probably should be used more because its still pretty ok.

Is it time for Fat Luke?

I haven't played fat Luke, but I suspect he's not great. He starts edging into 100 points territory. Rexler Brath is not cutting a swath through the meta at 100ish points, and I think he's way stronger than Luke at that point range.

Sure, I guess im just revisiting 100pt ace archetypes since its just a ton of 3 ships out there. It doesnt look like many players have even attempted regen luke competitively. Im reasonably sure it works better than current wedge lists, though thats not saying much.

Thinking, Super, R2D2, Burner, Title no torps. Its only 90 pts which leaves lots of room for the rest of the list

Rasta Maice has been flying 99 point Luke with either 3 Phoenix squadron A-Wings or 4 z-95s over here. He’s won a few store level tournaments too

2 Rebels 7 Imperials 7 Scum.

5 Palob 4 Whisper 4 Boba 4 Quadjumper.

Dutch and Wedge on both rebel lists.

Whisper Redline Deathrain most common successfull archetype in Europe right now? Boba Palob + is also very ubiquituos, but has a bit more variance in the “+” part (mostly Quadjumpers or 4LOM thought)

This feels less diverse than previous top 16s. Maybe I'm wrong, though.

Clarify earlier statements, I expect Fat Luke is good enough for good players to generate wins, I'm just not sure it's a frontrunner power piece. It surprises me in no way that Rasta got wins with him.

Final table of Dutch national is rebel vs scum, wedge garven Dutch (with leia on the arc and ion torp&turret) vs Boba palob 2xquad

Did Rebels win? I can’t decide if Dutch winning Dutch nationals is collusion or not.

No, came down to Garvin and Dutch versus Boba. Boba was “behind” for a little but not really.

Does anyone every try to predict lists based on things very much out side the game, meta-meta stuff for lack of a better term?

For example: even though u-wing are probably rebel’s best filler, no one takes them because the I2 feels better than the I1 if you don’t take an illicit, and you only get cardboard for one I2 per conversion kit purchased.

Anyone else think the x1 chassis is grossly over costed?
