I might need to do some rethinking....
Miranda + Nym+ Fenn is a fun list. Not the most competitive but when you can tell your opponent that Quickdraw can't use any of her tokens for the round, or harpoon carriers can't spend their TL and focus it's worth it.
Also, Low with DTF and Ezra with PTL and the astro that adds an agility make for a highly defensive tank. No offense though.
That's funny, because as of this very moment, Quickdraw is top 3.

Considering how crazy strong Nu,Nu,Nu, QD is … no surprise there. 3 Harpoons and a QD double tap.

I'm a poor data reader at best. Is this the mot significant spike in the game's history, or does the JM5K still reign supreme in that regard?
I'd say a FAQ is in order, but it's not going to happen until midway through the system opens at the earliest. Until then, I'll be packing Ion weapons in every competitive list I field.
JM5ks weren't a spike, they were a long, long plateau.

A spike in the sense that Mt Everest is, or a solar flair....
It's about the same lead over the rest of the field that Deadeye Scouts had, back then.
Ion Cannons and Tractor Beams. Always.

But with fewer ships in the meta, and that's not insignificant.
I played against it on the weekend, at our regional top 4, with Kylo + 2x HLC-boats. Whilst I lost the match, I had my opponent on the ropes until I made a mistake which cost me the game. The only survivor was a 2 hull Miranda, which given my inexperience against the list, seemed pretty good.
Now that I've played against that list and seen what it can do, IMO Kylo + 2x Gunboats can totally deal with that list. If you flank the 2 gunboats (separately) and go straight down the middle with Kylo, I think the match is winnable. I found Kylo is fast enough to dodge the flung bomb and close to R1 to also avoid the harpoons. If you can focus fire down one of their ships (Miranda's probably the best target), you should be all set to attrition down the other ship.
