Polish System Open Series in Krakow (results included)

By Oldpara, in X-Wing

I can' wait to see what lists Americans will use,rename, and take all the credit for this time.

For those of us unable to watch the stream, how's the field looking like so far?

Someone should make @Mynock Delta watch this so he can understand the Polish meta. Or, ya know, watch his head explode.

The current match is Palp Aces vs Four Wookies. What is going to make his head explode?

Just teasing because its been an ongoing thing on their podcast in the past that some of the more unique lists that have risen up in Poland has confused them.

Swiss has been won by the latest mutation of the Cancer: Maul Ezra Ghost with R3A2 Fenn (as Expertise counter). Our Power Girl Agata has made a cut with FennSync Ghost as well.

Overall number of Ghosts lists is significant but not overwhelming.

I'll post top32 details tomorrow.

Well there goes my hopes of ReyPoe as a counter.

I played versus pretty diversed lists first day. Got to the second day.

Well, the guy did his homework. If half the field prepared to beat him by bringing Expertise, he countered with R3-A2 at a higher PS.

Already started. Top4 on the stream now.

Finals gonna be Howard aces vs ghost r3a2 fenn.

Ya I wasn’t really on the Ghost Fenn being as big a problem as everyone else was, but if Rau can take a droid which is counter intuitive to his ability just in case he runs into an upgrade that has spiked in popularity due to the impact of his ability on the meta game, think it’s safe to say he’s morphed the game around himself more than a healthy amount at this point.

Imperial victory !!! So good, well played ! :)

Who won?

Palp Aces beat Ghost Fenn....Ghost Fenn player could've played the initial engagement WAY better.

So superior play beat a ‘superior’ list?

yay!

I meant player-wise... are there standings anywhere for the rest of the cut?

I enjoyed the streams of both days. The commentators were very aware of the game state and rules or abilities. That is not always the case. Also I think that the selection of games to be streamed was good with many different matchups.

Yeah, I botched the match and Łukasz outflew me. Also, I really have no idea why I shot at Inquisitor instead of the shuttle when I had the chance... I remember thinking that the shuttle will just run away and its pointless, but I think that was really dumb, I'd have to rewatch the stream. Plus, Expertise + Yorr was a really nice counter to my counter (R3-A2) :)
