Well done Truthiness.

I have a question about your report - in the final you dropped turn 3, took an Arq hit, killed the other Arq. Turn 4 you killed the remaining Arq, Turn 5 the Cruiser finishes the ISD, yes?

I dropped on turn 2. On turn 2, duck dropped the ISD to zero, I think in an attempt to get me to over shoot. It was a smart move because it forced me to choose between a tempting shot on the Cymoon and killing the Arq. It wasn't really much of a risk anyway since the odds of me getting an accuracy against the Cymoon was high and the brace was the only token that mattered. I decided to forgo the shot to kill the second Arq on turn 3. The Lib fired on the ISD on turn 4, and then a CR90 killed the ISD at the top of 5.

Congrats @Truthiness for the win. Really impressive to win without squadrons against these lists.

Thanks man. Congrats on the three-peat.

The double Slicers were clutch, but the raw speed of the list had a lot to do with it as well. My biggest win of the tournament was against a dedicated bomber list in the final round of Swiss. It's hard to chase down those CR90s, and I can get an 8-3 from a table even when losing the Liberty. It's a go for the throat list that can go (and has gone) very very wrong.
