I'm not trashing on VI but it only gets you to a five Skill on that Green squad A-wing. My current TIE build doesn't have a pilot under a six because of VI. I know in this game there is a situation for every list. Also this debate comes down to the kind of list you would like to play. I love missiles. I can do a ton of damage with two of them. I can for sure drop a ship. I am also going to look at and try out every card I can to make that missile as destructive as I can.

Is dead eye a great card? NO

is it a dead card? No

is it situational? YEs

have I had success with it? Ask the guy I smoked without loosing a ship Friday night. Better yet, ask the two squint pilots that each took a homing missile to the cockpit for vaporization!
