Agreed, Hangar Bay is one of my favourite formats. You can switch up your tactics on the fly and can help avoid hard counters, but just as importantly it means you're not tied into a single build for the duration, and can mix things up a bit if you want a change.

Some questions for the uninformed

What are the actual rules for hanger bay? Can you bring 2 lists from the same faction? Can you have the same upgrade in either list? For example can you have VI and Engine Upgrade in both if you dont change or swap any cards.

It's (probably) now the 2018 season because it'll end with the Coruscant Open in 2018. Also, the 2017 one already happened so this should not also be the 2017 System Open season, probably. That article calls out that the " Distinct Rule " was a new thing for the 2017 System Open season Hangar Bay events so at the moment it's up in the air what the rules for this year's Hangar Bay, not to mention the Hyperspace Qualifier, are going to be. We can guess that the Hangar Bay will use the same rules as last year but they could add or change something the way the distinct rule was added last year.

I am bumping this just to keep it visible. There are still a lot of people who don't know this is happening.
