So I had the OT tournament two days ago, it was a lot of fun, and I got to fly both lists (and for some reason worked backwards through the OT)

Round 1 against a guy named cole

His list:

Gamma Squadron Veteran + Veteran Instincts + Concussion Missiles + Extra Munitions + Proton Rockets + Guidance Chips + some bombs he never dropped

Tomax Bren + Crack Shot + same loadout as above

Soontir Fel + Push The Limit + Royal Guard TIE + Autothrusters + Stealth Device

This match lasted five rounds max, poor Luke blew up first round from concentrated firepower, Luke suffered 9 total damage, including shields and intergrated Astro, then it was just a sad day as Han ate missile after missile trying to flee bespin

Loss: 0-100

Round 2: a kid named Tristan

His list:

Luke Skywalker + R2-D2 + Expertise

Tycho Celchu + A-Wing Test Pilot + PTL + VI

Horton Salm + Ion Cannon Turret (tlt was banned) + BTL-A4 Y-wing (he thought you had to have the title on every ship) + Targeting Astromech

My three TIE interceptors started by going after Horton, getting behind his forward-locked turret and shooting him down, then I had issues with Luke who would just. Not. Die. And it was a sad day when turr blew up from a range 2 shot from tycho, saving Luke's bacon from turr, however carnor had a range one shot at Luke and the hero of the rebellion went down, then tycho killed carnor at range one and soontir chased tycho around the board until finally, soontir got tycho dead in front of him and the little a-wing that could went poof

Win: 100-64

Round 3: I cannot remember my opponent's name

His list:

Boba Fett + VI + Cluster Mines + Slave I + Extra Munitions + Navigator + HLC + maybe some missiles?

"Mauler Mithel" + Trick Shot

Academy Pilot x2

If my first game with my rebel list was like facing a Death Star, this time the rebels brought their own Death Star over hoth, Han one-shot all three TIEs in back to back turns, then hunted down boba fett and blew him outta the sky

Round 4: final round: against a guy named Jimmie

His list:

Ten Numb + Marksmanship + B-Wing/E2 + Heavy Laser Cannon + Mercenary Copilot + Fire-Control System

Gold Squadron Pilot + ion cannon turret + R7 Astromech x2

My interceptors knew this would be a tough match, with ten numb always getting one crit to go through, but we needed to defend the Death Star, we were closing in on yavin IV and needed to succeed to finally crush the rebellion, trusting Vader to handle those in the trenches

We flanked them and stripped all the shields off of ten numb in exchange for soontir's shield, then we ended up in a position where I thought I would for sure lose, all my interceptors were facing the wrong way, carnor and soontir got ionized while turr lost his shield

We danced around for a bit, me killing ten numb and on gold squadron pilot in exchange for soontir and carnor, there was around five minutes left, so turr let the y-wing have a shot at him since I couldn't lose anyways, the timer ended with turr only shieldless, the deathstar ready to fire, commencing primary ignition *boom* Death Star blows up, but I still won the fight

Win: 75-64

All in all, it was fun, the rebels won the day though (so very thematic)
