Why are you bad at X-Wing?
What is your 1.0 crutch?

The only way to fly the Moldy Crow is Jan Ors, Kyle Katarn crew, and Blaster Turret!

I am bad at X-Wing because I...
-actually just like flying Dash Rendar
-staple VI to everything
-joust literally everything with literally anything
-use Rey on everything possible
-use actions dumb and as a result have Crackshot and still miss
-get excited and keep making moves faster and faster until I do something stupid and kill my own ship
-pay more attention to theme than gameplay (i.e. only fly GUNBOATS with GUNS.)
My goal is to somehow use some sort of T-65 spam to get more good at this game. I actually had a lot of fun with four Rookies with Proton Torps and Guidance Chips, so we'll see if the new expansion makes them even more fun. I just wish Bomber-based ordnance was as fun as GUNBOATS, because it feels more thematically ok.
Edited by Kieransi.... because I have nearly every expansion but only fly 3 Rebel ships - YT-1300, YT-2400, and T-70 (Poe)
... because I know there are objectively better lists to fly, but I won’t touch them.
... because I hate scum faction and won’t fly it
... because I hate Palptine, and won’t fly him.
...because I have to use a different list every time I play.
I'm bad at X-wing because I can't play a strong game beginning to end. I either start strong and squander it , or mess up royally at the beginning and have to climb out of the hole in the second half. And that's how I win, losing is even worse.
I am bad because...
There. I think that about covers them.

So much this. Best response so far.
This one time at a tournament I was pretty **** sure I was finally playing a near "perfect" game...right up until the last few rounds.
Recognizing when your making correct decisions is super hard.
Knowing when my decisions are even the reason for a game that went well is even more confusing.
Edited by Boom OwlBecause I come up with a game plan and win condition turning the place rocks step only to forget all about it on turn 3
Because I go out of my way to put at least 1 HWK or Scyk into any list I fky... Currently running a list that is just 2 of each

Recognizing Win Conditions is a seriously Advanced X-Wing concept.
The first 3 rounds are so tricky...
Even having a game plan at all is next level X-Wing play.

I'm not Bad, it is just the only way to win is to play cancer. If you win with a
Fat Han
TLT
Palp
Biggs Jumpmaster
Wookies then you are truly a bad player.

If you want fluff then you should only be flying them with Concussion Missiles.

No one "wins" with Wookies. Their opponents would just rather their arms stay in their sockets.

because I have no tournament winning/placings because the only way to play X-wing is competitive standard (every thing else is playing X-wing wrong)
I am bad because...
• I usually move my ships faster or slower than intended
• I prefer to fly funny lists rather than top tier ships
• I have an inexplicable attraction towards asteroids
• My own ships are so in love, they always try to hug each other (with disastrous consequences)
• I don't play as much as I wanted
I' bad because I rely on podcasts with content to learn from...but then when they say they have content there's no information.
Such a long list, but two that really stand out and regularly lose me games:
I think „yolo, what could go wrong? And even if, how bad can it be?!“ That is, I have those lapses in seriousness when I really stop caring about winning. It bugs me later, especially when the correct call (eg running away) crossed my mind and I dismissed it because it‘s lame. But it isn‘t, not when I want to try to win.
The second is playing for my opponent. Reminding triggers, tokens, actions, good options, good maneuvers. It‘s not fair for myself and not fair for my opponent.

So this one keeps coming up...
Its obviously unrelated.

I guess you are right... Maybe is not that people who do that are bad because of that, but it's difficult to obtain as good results as with "better" squadrons
1 - I fly a lot of jank
2 - I don't like flying things that make it unfun for my opponent
3 - I love rolling lots of red dice
4 - I don't think 2-3 turns a head like I should.
5 - my love for everything A-Wing
