View in Yet Another Squad Builder 2.0
Took this for a spin over the weekend for 6 games, was incredibly surprised that this janky WTF list actually did some good work going 5/1. And some of the combos I didn't even see!!!
First my decision process:
We know Sabine is good, and I've been trying to shove her into a squad again for a while. I wanted her to be a bit more survivable so the shield upgrade went on right away. I fell in love with Kulbee over the past month and have been inserting him everywhere I can. I know he's only 3 points less than a naked Wedge in this build, but he is very nimble and has pretty decent action efficiency. He almost flys like an RZ1 but with a bit more firepower. I really wanted to fit another shuttle in for fun, I was playing with Hera but never came across anything I liked, but then I realized what Ezra is capable of so built him up. Jake would normally be my choice to insert when I have less than 50 points remaining, but with the rest of the squad being pretty action efficient I decided on Arvel to help out with blocking/offense. This left points for turrets to help increase the time on target.
So this squad actually plays very well and can get around the board very easily. Effectively both shuttles will have focus/evade most rounds (if Ezra is stressed he can change 2 focus results for the cost of 1 force. barrel roll links to a red evade) and they can re-position pretty easily. The best is they can K turn and still have at least a "focus" as well. I run the two shuttles as a pair and Kulbee/Arvel as another pair, each starting in a corner. Wait for the enemy to commit to one pair, and the other pincers. Since both teams can move pretty fast they can pincer quick!
But where the fun really lies is if you can connect on a great little combo! My favorite has been bumping Arvel into, say Poe. Then Ezra ion's Poe. Continue the bump train with Ezra/Arvel ioning Poe keeping him while the other two nuke him. Also shuts down Finn, Vader, Fenn, Anakin.
The fun part is, so far, everyone knows they hate Sabine so they want to take her down first, and she is probably the lowest threat!
