1 point EPTs are interesting.

Firstly, we have Veteran Instincts. A VERY popular card in the current meta, this is hard to pass up on most ships. There is almost always power in higher pilot skill.

I'm not quite sold on Calculation yet. Though it may increase the odds of having a critical result from 1/8 to 3/8, I would rather take a different EPT.

Deadeye is only good in certain builds. You would not use it if you did not have munitions to use.

Draw Their Fire is another instance based card. While it combos great with some pilots (Chewbacca for instance), it is not the first 1 point EPT to come to mind.

Determination has been discussed enough here. Personally, it is a great card for its cost. There is no greater satisfaction than discarding a damage card (besides rolling all crits on an attacking roll).

Lastly, there is Adrenaline Rush. I have never used this card, nor have I seen it in action. I think this is due to the fact that it is a one-off card. On the plus side, it does increase the amount of mind games in your match. Your opponent has to constantly think about when you might use it.

In conclusion, 1 point EPTs give you some complexity and flexibility in your squad building methods.
