| Post subject: | Tier 1 Squad Discussion -- Regionals (so no JA) |
Sooo...I've noticed a distinct lack of consolidated discussion as to what may or may not constitute Tier 1 for the 2009 Regionals. So let's start it here! I think there are three squads that many agree are Tier 1, or at least will be played at many regionals... (of course, if you don't, post why not!) GOWK + Rex/Dash/JWM (two of the three) LV + Opportunist Thrawn (B&B) Vong of Dewm (Jedi Hunters) What else is formulating in people's heads as to what may win Regionals? (I have some more that local players have tossed around, when I get home I will post some more).... |

I think the Rebel Push squads could stand a small chance, but it will really depend on what other things get played. They will struggle against Vong in particular, so if there's a strong Vong player in the area, that could be a risky move. I think it's also worth noting that there are other possibilities with GOWK as well. GOWK + JWM + JWM + Jarael may still see some action. I'm half tempted to play it sometimes, lol. It annihilates any version of B&B, frankly, as Vader has a dickens of a time hitting the JWMs, while they freely Riposte back. Plus, you're still going to see people play the obligatory Boba BH squads, like GOWK/Boba or Vader Unleashed/Boba, stuff like that. Might see a couple people attempt to use Mandos as well with Boba Merc/Czerka, hoping to stun GOWK. But not all of those would be considered 'Top Tier 1' I guess. |

Hrm... NR might work, with a Kyle + Kyp squad, or something along those lines. Lancer? That still viable? Force Push can be brutal with the right map (Crystophsis or whatnot is brutal). |

lancer 86's can beat GOWK i guess. i would of vs shadows but i wanted to see if i could kill GOWK not just kill Rex and hide the lancer for the win. i guess the 86 lancer has done ok in Michigan. |

Here's a NR squad that I've had some success with. Though admittedly, the last time I ran it against GOWK/Rex/Dash, I got annihilated, but it's because I made a positioning error that cost me both Jag and Lobot in Round 2. --Borderline-- 45 Mara Jade, Jedi 28 Dash Rendar, Renegade Smuggler 26 Kyp Durron 15 Lobot, Computer Liaison Officer 10 Jagged Fel 10 Luke Skywalker, Force Spirit 9 General Dodonna 6 Ugnaught Demolitionist x2 (149pts. 9 activations) You can haunt Kyp against GOWK squads, so you have infinite Lightning, or the FP5 if it is easily available. Even in that game where I lost Jag/Lobot so easily, I still managed to kill GOWK before Kyp and Mara finally succumbed to Rex. With some better placement on my part, I think I could've had a better shot at winning that game. Hard to say for sure though. |
