List Juggler Results as of 9/19/17
All right! We are rapidly approaching the milestone of having no Imperial lists in the Top 20! Just so everyone understands the significance: The game has NEVER had one faction be so poorly represented at any time since the release of Scum and the 3 faction game. I, for one, would like to extend my warmest congratulations to the Dev team- YOU'RE SO CLOSE TO YOUR DREAM OF REMOVING IMPERIALS FROM THE GAME! REACH FOR THE STARS!
Dude, seriously... 33 posts and nearly every single one is like this... You're so close to perfection
Edited by LagJansonJeez. I get that Imps need some help, but you really should lay off the salt a little. Don't want you getting hypertension, buddy. I mean, you've only been on the forums for 2 weeks* and already so much salt....
*Yeah, I know you are a sock puppet/alt account. It's still funny to joke. Plus I'm not sure if you are anothe PGS sock puppet or not, so I will withhold the full fury of my scorn and sarcasm ?

It's called dedication! Or obsession. One of the two.

I'm like one of those aliens that breathes through a mask- I breathe salt. I exist in a chamber with internet access and salt gas to nurture me. I AM THE CHOSEN ONE!
My bad. Self deprecating humor? No blanket scorn for turrets? Not one mention of a "hugbox"?
Clearly not PGS. You have my sincere apologies, good sir.
Still, watch the salt ?

I'm not PGS, but he's my spirit animal.

Yeah, PGS speaking in favor of Imperials? That's the day pigs fly.

Meh. I'm not qualified nor inclined to figure out which. I'll just agree with this statement.

You forgetting the extreme lack of rebels during the deadeye u-boat phase? Pretty sure they were at least as bad off as imperials right now.

It's actually VERY similar. List Juggler as of Deadeye U-Boats
I'd argue Imps are worse off now due to AGI being a worthless stat and nearly their entire fleet being overcosted for that reason. MOV just wrecks Imps right now, there's nearly no list you can field that can preserve points now that Imps basically have no defenses.
By now I trust high level tournaments much more instead of total aggregated data.
Nationals for example have less fun squads a player wanted to try out, and more working ones.
Metawing is such an amazing tool, and so abused to push different agendas

How dare you suggest I have an agenda! *Looks up agenda in on dictionary.com*
Oh. Nevermind. Carry on.
Let him use the forum how he chooses..
But thank you all for posting and keeping the topic relevant because the content is real, regardless of the deniers in this thread.

I denied nothing. I agreed with one post though. I may have just denied being a denier though so you may interpret as you choose.
Does anyone know if PGS has a little brother?

no...
If you have to make an alt to do it you probably should just not do it. Not PGS, starts with an M.
Very similar situation then, with only a couple of rebel lists cracking the top 20 and everything else being Imperial and Scum. It wasn't 100% as bad then for rebel lists but close enough for a rough comparison.
Also, whether you trust high level tournaments or Metawing they're saying the same thing: Imperials don't compete at a high level nearly as consistently as Scum or Rebels in the current meta. That's not some hot topic of contention or anything, it's just fact.

That was also an imbalanced time, but as I recall, Rebels still did quite well in the most capable hands when the stakes were highest.

Yeah, only the largest tourneys shows where the power lies, SC's are mostly for fun.; but World's??

how many top rebel lists rely on Nym. without him rebels would be a distant second behind scum in top20 finishes eh?

I really really hope you are aware how insignificant the top4 is in a game like X-Wing.
So let's look at the data that @Favoritism Flight Games sees as so damning.
Edit: don't press Submit instead of insert image...
These are the squads sorted by top20 of archetypesthat were played since 13th of July, the start of Wave 11.
Cutting down to nationals looks even worse:
Here the Imps are just 5% of all squads sorted by top20 archetypes. But what if we look at pilots?
Aw man, that doesn't look so bad, now Imps are almost 18%. Sure that's below 33%, but clearly more than 5%. And cutting to nationals?
Aw man, even worse! Now the imps are 20%, and Scum is also just 30%.
Clearly the data shows this: FFG, WHY DO YOU HATE SCUM?!?!
Edited by GreenDragoonWhile I'm not sure which was worse between the current empire position or what the Rebels went through (lean towards the Rebels having it worse), I think we can all agree that both situations are deplorable and that the current situation should be dealt with like the pervious was.
