4-4-3-1 and you went 6-0?

Guess the aces are overrated in general, and/or you're truly a legend (most likely both)!

Thinking that this guy's an absolute legend. Big tourney results, like this guy's performance or the persistence of aces, don't lie.

4-4-3-2 don't you disrespect my boy Bastian like that :D

Also lol I finished 2nd overall in Swiss. I think people just underestimated my firepower and mobility, theres no legendary performance here. People don't see Cova and Kaz as 3 dice knife fighters. For some wierd reason.

Of course! I don’t play Resistance so it’s an honest mistake.

It just makes my I4 heart happy to see them do so well at such a premiere event!

Why in all heck would you EVER want Cova Leia Heroic over a 44pt T-70? You're essentially paying to get the same thing, for 11 points more, you get 2 more hull and flexibility to use Leia's ability instead of getting 3 red dice. WhAt a m I missin g ?

Black Squadron Ace with Hull Upgrade 52

Leia Cova 55

For 3 points I get a massively different dial that works better for a beef list and I get to bail out another ship with Leia if I need to. And purple coordinate if Cova is out of range 3 on first engagement.

Also I don't think Cova is that special. Or Pava or Bastian or Kaz. It's the fact that all 4 fit in a list and feed of each other is what makes them special.

On the other hand I just lost in the Top32 so what the **** do I know :D

I just made this exact same list the other day, saw you were on stream. I gotta go back and watch. Great run!

Does this mean there was a 5-0 Trip Silencer player until you played against them?

You said the same for every 2.0 meta we had so far...

Because it keeps getting gradually better as they remove glue. And its still not your dice.

I never blamed my dice in particular, it's just the game that's getting more and more dicey.

Its not our dice then?

I will defend hyperspace at all times.

Sounds like a straw man fallacy to me.

What does making cut or not making cut have to do with someone's intelligence?

@Sunitsa where? I'm in a red shirt, 5A and team switzerland on my back

all three streams have jedi in them... interesting... but I was told...

Doug Howe with the SJE along side Kylo/Vonreg makes me happy. SJE is a ship which doesn't get much love, but when I've put it on the table lately, I've been really pleasantly surprised by it.

Guys I think it just might be my dice. I just went 5:0 in the World Qualifier with Rey Kaz and Lulu. So yeah disregard everything I just roll good :D

To avoid a double post, I am going to ask @RStan and @gennataos if the Fireball has turned Chewie into another organic Bellbulab with a strong disregard for the lifespan of any single of his minions compared to the whole of the squad. Case in point:

You're allowed to not like it.

It's clearly more "dicey" than 1.0, but whether it's "too" dicey is also clearly somewhat a matter of opinion. I'm not sure many would inherently agree? Maybe they would? I don't know.

I'm okay with an increase red accuracy if green doesn't go up, for example. *maybe*. But man, it feels pretty okay where it is, to me.
