Can anyone provide the links for the top 32 lists for these two events?

I know that the 6 Nantex are doing really well in the top 8, but not sure about the full 32 or even just how many netlisters tried it to know if it’s really a problem or if it’s doing well via large numbers

Here’s the List Fortress link for Corellia:

and this list of Darthomir was posted yesterday on the X-Wing reddit:

The List Fortress link for Dathomir is now up here:

https://listfortress.com/tournaments/1836

A few interesting things:

  • There are once again loads of Spamtex lists in top cut.
  • A list with 5 TIE Aggressors and Sloane on a Reaper made top 4.
  • Boba Fett still isn't doing particularly well. One Boba list made top cut, 8 failed to do so.
  • 2 Dash lists made top cut.

Boba will still probably shine in Hyperspace. There’s just so many other options in extended that are being explored from the update.

Those Nantex are gross. That's crazy there were four of them in a top 8. But hey, at least some large ships are showing up again. So that's cool.

I don't think it's just other options "being explored" though. It's not as if people aren't flying Boba because they're trying out other things - there are plenty of Boba lists. They're just not making the cut.

I agree that he is more competitive in Hyperspace. But I think his relatively poor performance in Extended is still notable given some of the angst I've seen about him. If nothing else it suggests his strength in Hyperspace is largely a result of the ship and upgrade limitations; and that if it needs addressing, changes to Hyperspace legality might be a better option than point adjustments.

In light of the inevitable Nantex discussion, I feel I must provide a link to Paul Olson’s work on the matter: https://m.soundcloud.com/paul_olson/yes-we-can-beat-nantexs-mulan-x-wing-parody
