As always thank you to anyone who listens to us.

Good Hunting,
Kelvan Tiberius

Great to have you guys back very cool to have some informed discussion back on the holonet.

34:40 Scarlet Cowgirl gets a a mention!

Kath Scarlet, Buzzsaw Shuttle and 2 tie fighters

Thats going waaay back. Miss that list/ This was when imperials had firesprays and the shuttle was the empires most polarizing ship choice.

I used rebel captive crew on kath and 2x academy as blockers or one academy and Dark Curse. I tested this squad heavily vs other top lists and found it was an uphill battle vs fat han (no surprises there)

looking fwd to more, esp scum lists/scum faction discussion.

We did scum last episode.

Thanx Kelvan, just listened to it. right on point with Boba Fett/marauder/han gunner, Jakku gunrunner and Drea swarms. These are some of scums strongest options right now. Asajj and Dengar have potential. Fenn and Palob are key ships that are hard to ignore and Guri has her supporters, understandably so with her knife fighting ability thanks to outmanuever enhanced attacks.

I am all in on Junkyard Swarms with Drea. Either 5 exploding gunrunners or a modified version of William Haigwood's list at Coruscant.

Anything in that ballpark is going to be pretty **** good.

That cliffhanger though!

gunrunner is just so cheap for what it does. exploding tugs is just hilarious and would be scary as **** to play against. Drea is the swarm enabler scum has been waiting for. soo good. its nice how the generics are good again. Its interesting how some 2.0 ships need upgrades and some don't. I think this is one reason why large ships are lagging in popularity right now, ur caught between upgrading them to be good enough or just taking generic fillers. 2 ship lists are being pinched a bit, which is perhaps good as things like brobots and corrin dash and decimator+ace squads have been so prominent in the old 1.0 meta.

im all in on the firespray. was thinking 2 shadowport hunters + bounty hunter could be ok. If you go Boba Fett/Marauder/Han Gunner then, Palob, Fenn Rau, Old Teroch, 4-LOM and Guri are all viable options. Its really tight to make a 3 ship list with Boba as the linchpin, unless you thrown in escape craft as 3rd ship or shave off semi-essential upgrades on the support ships. Boba+Palob+Old Teroch or Boba+Palob+4-LOM seem the best that ive theory crafted.

Kath Scarlet/Marauder/Han/Ketsu Onyo paired with 3x GunRunner/DeadmansSwitch and L3-37/tactical officer might be ok too. Probbaly need a seismic charge in there to trigger the deathswitch tho eh?

There's a small segment of Kath fans, any time you can get an extra dice, that ultra powerful in 2nd.

Also Drea is ultra cheap for the ability. Holy smokes!

I don't feel like we hit up why the punishers are so good enough. Spanish Nationals and Crossroads had a ton in the top cuts.

Huge # of lists in swiss with just 3 fragile targets helps to.

Tragedy Simulator. I just don't understand why they made that again.

I think it's actually okay, but not on a ship that can also take Proton Torpedoes. On a ship like the Resistance Bomber, it made sense because they didn't have anything to do other than bomb. There's a strong case to have the TIE Punishers should just lose their Sensor slot at this point.

You and me both, brother.

Aside, I feel compelled to inform you in a gentlemanly sort of way that the St. Louis X-wing group (Arch Alliance) is making a play for Smittle. He wore our shirt at Crossroads.

I'd say the boost also plays into it not being okay. The combo of boost->TL->torp? Dumb.

He's got St Louis roots so I think it's fair. I like Alex so much that I would never do anything more than politely ask that he hang out with me more.

You do realize that its the punisher's linked actions? Redline is nasty because he does it without the stress or can focus into lock.

This mostly. It's crazy.

After he round 1 kicked my face in, we kept checking in with each other--he is a super fun guy to hang out with. The funny thing is when our records overlapped, we were all "hey, we won't play each other again!" Ooh boy, was I wrong.

I'd be down to do the shirt swap like those Soccer players do. Just way less sexy.

Also for the record for like 2 years I was Smittle's bogeyman until last store championship season. He barely got me then too.

I know it doesn't make sense but It's still accurate.
