It's funny that you say that when the past half year has seen unprecedented 44% generics, up from 32% last year . Squads with no unique at all increased from 7% to 12% - almost doubled compared to April last year. Mainly scum, imperial and FO, total 89 squads out of 745 lists. (space jam events + corellia)

But don't let your dreams be dreams!

Looking forward to nantex adding to that number!

You mean reducing it because the generics, unlike big orange and purple, can't compete anymore?

Is that locusts? As in, a big swarm of bugs?

Fun Fac(t): Starship Troopers the film is a parody of the eponymous book to show how batsh!t fascistic the book's ideas are when taken to their logical conclusion. And which faction wants so hard to be moustache-twirling space Nazis?

First Order wins Dathomir confirmed?!

*catches on fire*

Judge- I'll allow it

Some takes from Dathomir lists:

-only 5 Sloanes (one is the glorious Filip's feroph + 5 aggressors thought)

-More nantex than CIS swarms

-Lots of emp aces and I mean proper aces with high ps and bids.

-Also some not that acey emp lists that Boom like to call aces for reasons. They are on average quite worse thought

-Suprsing lots of 2 ships lists, especially Dash/Han+1 (bartosz brought Dash+Chopper)

-Resistance has turned to be basically Rey.

-Not surprising, there is just one Poe (he's 2-0 right now but the player will probably have to drop due to work)

-Raabe is playing a COMPOSURE boba

-an incredible amounts of pretty bad 4 ships build (not actually that incredible)

-Few swarms (if we are excluding nantex from this count). Particulary true for scyk swarms which are still much more unpopolar than how they usually fare

-Kimogila seems to exist

-Republic is mostly 4 random ships trow up together. Sad (not really, **** force)

-Dash is hot

-Rebels are still trying to find a new beef. I think they are failing. On the other side, resistance beef doens't seem to be an extended thing (despite being at least on par with most of those 4 ships rebel)

-3 5A lists. One with 2 prockets. I kinda like it

-Only 1 double IG + Nom (don't quote on my math skill)

-FO have some interesting concept floating around. Few vonregs thought

-if Nantex were the Corallia's "discovery", Dash might be the Dathomir's one (or han+1 if that the case). I don't think a 2 ship list with Dash or Han could beat spamtex thought

Can't tell with the ligthing, but that's flare, not the card burning. There was enough wax for me to make a safe slot for the card.

Still gathering the data. 170 Available lists (173 Players I think?) so some of this might not be completely accurate. Some blanks in TTT and I am tired.

There's at least one without zizi: I think I saw a Rey Han Finn.

Great work anyway!

No whispers is definitely true and something I overlooked in my above post

@Sunitsa fixed maybe.

@Boom Owl do you count generics like petronaki as 1 per list regardless on how many are massed together or if someone play spamtex they are straight 6 added to your count?

Also there's a list submitted in spanish with qd vonreg and kylo, not sure if you counted qd since it's "centella" in spanish

Usually # of squads that contain thing, not # of that thing. i.e. 13 nantexan squads. 65 nantexan texans. They are doing very well through Round 3.

this is the way

Still more squads with Obi Wan than Petronaki Arena Ace? This is about the clearest case of “my favorite movie character” I think I’ve ever seen.

That's not what Boom's numbers show

And in a tournament with 170 players and 5 sloane we somewhat managed to have two playing against each other in stream

Nantexans through 4 Rds. Seems good. At least 3 Nantex Mirrors for Rd 5.
