[@jonathonjarman4121]

Glad to see a good ol rebel build beat THOSE GODAMN JUMPMASTERS

[@ForceM1782]

Always good to see U-Boats get tabled, and by a very creative list by Nathan. Good job and great coverage. Often you see great games but the casters don't have the dimmest idea what's going on. But not here on TC!

[@teamcovenant]

Thank you for the kind words!

[@romanoaj31]

Insight, tone and presentation tops as always. Thanks TC.

[@brownj2123]

Great coverage guys! Unfortunately they definitely revealed some things I wish I had done differently, and a few tough breaks. First: My proton shot on a tokenless Corran: I got I think 3 hits and a crit, and I was hoping for a blank out to push through the boba crit and remove r2d2. Unfortunately nathan got a single clutch evade there to avoid the crit going through. Second: Next round I 3 forwarded with my boba scout which caused a roll to just barely not fit. If I made that roll then I was in a good position to sloop with my plasma scout and light corran up again. Unfortunately then that miss cost me my plasma scout. Third: when it was down to Ashoka at 2 health and corran vs 2 shieldless scouts; the die roll after Ashoka's move was APL. Unfortunately it didn't hit which left Ashoka at 2. Then I tried focusing down Ashoka and shooting at her with boba scout first, so I could then feedback for the kill. Again Nathan rolled some clutch evades to foil my plan. If I was able to remove Ashoka there and had 2 scouts (one was a bump-master) I liked my chances to finish off Corran. Last comment is, I definitely played ultra-conservative because of the ashoka-corran schenanigans and it showed in the video. Most of my posturing was to avoid taking a r1 double tap from a 3 action Corran. But upon further reflection I should have continue playing aggressively which is what got me to this match. Hindsight is definitely 20-20!

[@teamcovenant]

Amazing performance Justin! Congrats!

[@memoisthebest45]

how did you stay for a few turns without moving?

[@memoisthebest45]

HA HA nvrmind

[@brentr926]

It looked like a great game! Those paint jobs look nice too. If you don't mind me asking, did you prime and paint the whole ship, or did you paint your colors right over the factory paint scheme?

[@brownj2123]

I painted right over the factory paint. I used thinned citadel paint and did 3-4 coats. Then after that I used a wash to darken it up some and scratched them up a little to give it a more weathered look.

[@GeneralBenobi]

I think the dice roll at 39:13 was for anti-pursuit lasers when Ahsoka bumped, but looks like it was a blank

[@Hypoo]

OH LOOK! JUMPMASTERS! How exciting.

[@sebastiendemers3830]

Three jumpmasters, that's a scary squad to go against. Great rebel list. Wonderful coverage. The interface/display is fantastic. Thanks

[@bazza1carter]

Incredible match. With all those hit points I didnt rate Nathan's chances but he played his list like a boss.

[@judahcashon4680]

Thanks for the commentary. I'm glad to see a Ahsoka build in the top 8 I literally just won a casual game with her a k wing and an a wing.

[@AGuysBlues]

Mind sharing that list?

[@judahcashon4680]

AGuysBlues Ahsoka- VI, Cap Tie, Title, Sabine, Proton Bomb, Emp device Miranda- C-3PO, Sesmic Charge x2, Extra munitions, advanced slam Tycho- PTL, Title, Adaptability +1, Autothrusters Not sure if that's everything, but it's what I remember off the top of my head. There is definitely room for improvement for the squad. Plus, I made this to specifically deal with the build I new I would be facing.

[@MrJeepinZeke]

Loudninja456 C I run her with 2 K-Wings fully loaded with bombs and Ahsoka has a proton bomb>:)

[@ddmalarkey]

Great coverage as always, guys. Keep up the good work :)

[@teamcovenant]

Thank you Dan!

[@tiagodagostini]

Damm that level of playign is neat, such precise movement, specially wehn biggs threw himself into the fray at a very veryprecise and tight space to save the day.

[@davetye]

Good game and slick coverage.

[@ProfessorBurchh]

What an awesome match! Great vid :)

[@jushin20]

that was just as awesome match!

[@emodude175]

i hate this jumpmaster meta right now all of the recent videos out right now has at least 2 jumpmasters in it

[@samcollins4587]

What I really really want is to be able to use the little tracking elements that Team Covenant have on either side of the video as an app to keep track of things during games. That way you could have a tablet set up at the side of a game and it would show overall what's going on. (Casual player) Does anyone know if this is just added over the video footage using some sort of editing magic or whether any software/app like this exists?

[@EoWxBrutos]

I believe it is just post action effects done on top of the footage. Could be wrong though!

[@gdfygh]

Great commentary as usual guys! Do you know if FFG will be releasing the mat used in this match to the general public?

[@teamcovenant]

Unknown to us!

[@36Marciano]

I thought i saw a few bumps done by Justin on his own ships?6:14 and 8:45.....not really sure about the placement on these moments....

[@507cycleshop]

When do you expect your 2016 X-Wing worlds coverage to be posted?

[@fairygoodmuller8065]

they had to strip the jumpmaster of its astromech slot :(

[@chase7176]

I keep plugging Nathan's list into an app and always come up with 102 points. Is there something I'm missing?

[@fairygoodmuller8065]

Ahsoka Tano - TIE Fighter 17 Veteran Instincts 1 Sabine Wren 2 Scavenger Crane 2 Seismic Charges 2 Captured TIE 1 Sabine's Masterpiece 1 Ship Total: 26 Biggs Darklighter - X-Wing 25 R4-D6 1 Integrated Astromech 0 Ship Total: 26 Corran Horn - E-Wing 35 Push the Limit 3 Fire-Control System 2 R2-D2 4 Engine Upgrade 4 Ship Total: 48 its exactly 100

[@thormind7338]

Problem with Biggs is that more and more Rebel ships are now powerful enough. He is starting to get into overpowered territory. Remove the Jumpmaster and Rebels would most likely dominate the game... IMO any ships and/or pilot that are in like 80% of a faction builds should be considered for an adjustment. The game now has some many ships. It's a shame we have to rely on 2-3 of them to be competitive.

[@ThroatSore]

Isn't that a problem with the game at the moment? FFG lost the plot with balance some time ago.

[@DannyStuart]

6 upgrades on a TIE fighter. Talk about bloated! This isn't the game I fell in love with.

[@MCPaddyB]

It's not JUST a TIE fighter though.
