B) Nymranda (Miranda/Nym combo)

C) Plot Armor (Intensity Poe/Dash combo) *

D) Fair Ship Rebels (Biggs/Lowhhrick/Rex/Fourth Ship) **

G) Dengar/Fenn/Inaldra

H) Parattanni or 'variant of'

J) Other ********

* = 1 vote

-------------------------------------

My vote goes to Fair Ship Rebels. A lot of people are going to be running it and I think it has a good chance to be in the finals.

I really love how only one of the options is Imperial. God this Wave is terrible.

I'm gonna go with A. Nymgar- the two most OP ships in the game! Now with 100% more NPE synergy and twice the sodium!

Mindlink Scyks

Someone give me odds, my money's on Brobots.

Guns for Hire will be released at GenCon and its

Five. Cartel. Marauders.

yes I know about Premier release delays, don't be a spoilsport

Gonna go out on a limb and say (J) other - triple imp aces (non-alpha strike).

Still the list I fear most in this game probably.

Of the list provided, I'd guess DenTel.

Not related to who will win but i seriously feel like the term "Plot Armor" should go to Poe+Rey builds...lol....

i'm still hoping for someone to pop up with an imperial list that isnt PS11 alpha. Preferably with a Punisher just for the extra salt on scum/rebel players that lose to it lol

Crackshot swarm :P

No Kanan/Biggs archetype? That's where my money is :)

Also surprised that Heragator has fallen off the map.

My money (or lack thereof) is on DengarNym, I fought it once and died hard, Jaketensity was my last ship to fall.

The one that wins the most games would win, I presume

John Madden, everyone.

Thank you very much *claps*

Triple Jumpmasters, hands down. The best list for current meta. FSR could be troublesome, but with correct play should be beaten.

As someone who goes 7-2 in Swiss sneaks in to the final top 8, beating someone who went 9-0 in swiss at the final table. "But I only lost one game... This guy lost two? How can he be the champion and I'm not?"

Well, NOT Nym. That ship goes down too quickly. Unless(!) the player brings Nym in after the first engagement to mop up damaged ships.

Nym is a chump that looks scary for two turns.

Though choice between

A Nymgar and D) Biggs Lowrisk

Both will be in the top 4 100% sure. Also there wont be any Imperial built in the top 4 and probably only 1 or 2 in the top 16 (most likely not in the top 8)

I hope Top players will not choose the Dark Side (faster and easier but not stronger) and left Nym in the Hangar.

Such gifted players can give us one bright example about buildlisting. And I hope many will do.

Because Rebelions are built on hope.

ommonwealth Defenders.

I'm going to put my money on Mirandash, just because it does disgusting things to 4SR when flown well. Not saying it will win, but it definitely can and was not mentioned.

Corran and Horton.

I vote J). An Imperial list with TLT Aggressors will win.

  • Fair Ship Rebels will NOT win and it won't be in the finals.
  • Captain Nym will NOT win and he won't be in the finals.
  • Mindlink will NOT win, though it could be in the final game.

Given how many twoship lists are meta defining...kyloRAC Colset.
