Statistically there's not much difference between target lock and focus in terms of average hits per roll generated...TL gets the slight edge because it lets you potentially gain more crits while focus never will, but from a raw damage dealt analysis they break down statistically about equal.

What this ability does is it lets you "double down" on your tokens to generate a BETTER result than you could have generated with either one alone. It makes those TL+focus shots much more CONSISTENT which is a pretty big deal in X-Wing (note how after Guidance Chips ordinance is actually useful, also how Emperor Palpatine is perhaps the single most powerful upgrade in the game). I actually like it better than Omega Ace's ability, especially as it comes on a ship which effectively has a 3-red primary arc.
