Worlds 2018 goes to show you that no matter how broken something becomes, playing something else really, really well will overcome it.

Not a single Rebel in final table. That floors me as amazing from a salty forums + math point of view. But, it was done. For both players, it took an unknown amount of practice (literally, I don’t know what both of them did for worlds prep) and some solid dedication.

So take encouragement. I know September is still a ways off. Keep on playing what you want to fly, and overcome the Ghost-Fenns and MirandaNyms in your area.

Unless you fly those. You’re on your own bud.

Well, as the stream stated yesterday, he played his brobots so much for so long that his dial backs were completely white from usage.

It’s positive. We can hope we’ll see fewer of the NPE lists through store champs season.

One downside of the 2E announcement is there is no incentive to update the FAQ, so we won’t likely see some 1E errata that would be nice to cut back RegenMissileBombTurretWing through the summer.

For me, screw it, I’m flying jank and X-wings all summer through the last big 1E tournament at NOVA/US Nats.
