Proud tradition is also another way to avoid obstacles. Fly over debris to get out of trouble and take a focus while gaining that extra green dice. Now gas clouds and debris are helpful.

For the spammi bois. As that one dude who flew Trick Shot Pattern Blackout to fly through clouds, not care for focus, and have a better jousting value through the obstacles, I seriously considered this. But against the vast majority of the field, my opponent would probably just eat a bonus crit to stop that.

Is Proud Tradition the corner case for I'll Show You the Dark Side?

Maybe for Kylo crew. With Hate Kylo or Kylo in those cases where you're not going to be using anymore force in the round AND you have 2 force charges, ISYTDS is still useful (I show it about once a game, typically against higher inits or against lower inits shooting a potshot through a cloud). If the opponent is mod-heavy or on top of an obstacle, then I could use that opportunity to assign a Blinded or a Stunned pilot and hope for the best.

Typically, you want to not even think about that decision because you dodged all the arcs or blew them up first.

So I don't get to also hate facism and enjoy playing First Order?

HALP!

Your world views don't have to align with your toy spaceships, otherwise i'd only be able to play scum, cis, and mayybe rebels. Compartmentalization is a wonderful thing.

I mean, I'm not sameteaming fascism.

More likely I don't understand the sameteam meme.

Not even 40 and I'm already a boomer.

Sad Reacts only.

I think sameteam just means "I agree with/sympathise with/understand the thing you just expressed". We are on the same team.

Seriouspost: Aces high at worlds— two guys teamed up, one backstabbed, the other was so flummoxed all he could do was say “Same Team?” in pain and confusion.

I’m pretty sure that was the genesis.

I thought it was Ben Keller yelling "Same Team" to Starviper Mitch recognizing the equivalence between the quad phantom tactics that got him (Ben) to Worlds and the tactics used by Mitch to optimize engagement with the Starvipers.

it started in aces high with negotiations. It segued into solidarity with other Mitch when Ben got drunk

IIRC it started with Wade during aces high at worlds. That was the first time i saw it.

Looking more at the glory of the LAAT spread, there seems to be a Captain Rex card and a Commander Fox card. There also appears to be a card that ends in "shot" and refers to the bullseye. I don't pretend to know what the Phase 2 Trooper card (the one that ends in "company") does, but white reload into a red focus looks really good in a faction with Plo (especially since the other more ordnance-y craft, the Y wing, just reloads and can't take another action to flex that ability).

From the various balance discussions in this thread, I kind of had figured it as "we're on the sameteam [say, of wanting a balanced game], so let's not worry the small disagreements." Big difference. My bad.

That's actually the genesis. And Wade.

WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAADE!

(We were actually on the same team because Mynocks were on our first table.

First: unironic same team. Once the mynocks got regulated to the salt mines, it became "same team" while just trying to back stab.)
