Whats you approach for defeating 4 phantoms with Republic assets ;) ?

By Mpori, in X-Wing Squad Lists

Hi there!

Been using Anakin+Obi+2 Gold Sqd. and while id loved it so far, Im not sure it has what it takes to survive the 4 phantoms imperial list, what would it take from the republic to do so? whats best and why?... Im not in a competitve venue, so I would apreciate any comments from you guys who certanly are!

Step 1.) Lay down

2.) Try not to cry

3.) Cry a lot

I honestly don't know how Republic fares in extended (been playing basically only hyperspace thus far) but I can't imagine you'd have a better shot at facing Juke than the Jedi

Personally, though, I've stuck exclusively to I 4 jedi (Lumy; Mace) because they're far cheaper and still have interesting abilities. With a bid, you can still dance around phantoms with the sprite's ridiculous manueverability

Perhaps Lumy would be something to invest in, given she's basically "reverse juke". While you're NOT likely to get much damage mitigation out of it, forcing your opponent to spend focus CAN BE HUGE when you're trying to push damage through

Points are currently awkward, though. Maybe the n1 will help fill out lists more effectively

Arcs are going to be able to take punches and the multiple firing arcs will help you keep shots on them. So 3 of them accompanied by a Jedi should be about as good as you’ll get with Republic. Mace would be good because he can regen his Force which is going to come in handy against Juke. Obi Wan could also help keep the Arcs around longer by helping them keep their focus tokens.

Waiting for the next point change. 😅

2 ARCs & 4 Torrents. Just keep the phantoms in someones arc at ALL times. You’ll probably have to spread them out in different range bands to account for the phantoms’ crazy maneuverability...and pray to the dice gods...

I think Kempo might have it with Obi, 3 arcs

On paper, an I 5 super ace that can soft check juke is probably the key to that matchup
