Have a few ideas for this list with Dengar and a couple of BTL Thugs packing ion cannons. I figure ion is hot right now to counter many things and Dengar is always strong with his ability. It's simple but effective.

The list can dish out 6 shots in a round and has the ability to ionize even large ships. Op Spec to load up focus tokens when anything misses.

Jumpmaster 5000: •Dengar (52)

•Punishing One (12)

Expertise (4)

Operations Specialist (3)

Y-Wing: Syndicate Thug (24) x 2

BTL-A4 Y-wing (0)

Ion Cannon Turret (5)

Unhinged Astromech (1)

Total: 100/100

The Thugs are all target lock all the time as Op Spec should grant focus tokens if some shots miss. Mainly trying to get the ions to land and control the most threatening enemy ship.

Had a couple different ideas as variants. One would be to give the Thugs Overclocked R4s instead of Unhinged. This would limit their mobility, but increase the focus shenanigans to the point that they could probably not have to worry about being stress free and always get token after token.

Another would be to counter the PS 10 alpha strikes by putting VI on Dengar to bring him to 11 and getting countermeasures. Trading offense for defense but also allowing him to better arc dodge and shoot first.

Love to hear your thoughts, thanks.

This definitely does seem strong. I think Predator would be a better crew than Op Spec on Dengar, gives rerolls and focuses. That's a nice, well-rounded build.

I would support switching to Overclocked. But then, the title would provide problems. With title, you might miss some turns of shooting. Without title, Op Spec is kinda useless.
