Squad mates

We’re gonna have tryouts

A little over a quarter the way through Deathrain’s tour around Albion and I can say that I’m confident with the ship. I understand his moves, bomb locations and role in the battle. This frees up time to focus on the rest of the list. Which two ships best compliment the garbage can? There have been many candidates for membership but one has stood the test of time and that Pilot needs no introduction.

Congratulations QuickDraw you double tapping whore. It’s clear that I need a high PS ship in my list and she does the job. Having 6 health and a 1 speed on a TIE is banging. QuickDraw’s ability compliments Deathrain’s purpose on the field as well as just being really good. So that leaves me with one space to fill. There have been many eager applicants, some with a proven track record, but they have their downsides:

Vessery TIE/D can’t take hits.

Ryad can’t take stress.

Vessery x7 can’t slow down and is predictable.

Inquisitor doesn’t like bombs.

The Upsilon Shuttle can’t turn around.

Kestal is kinda dull.

Sabaac/Valen Rudor/Dark Curse together is a bit too janky (don’t laugh it beat Dengar/Nym).

Played two games with Blackout. Up against a four ship list. Could not trigger his ability.

I was going to try the PS4 silencer but I feel that it won’t synchronise with Deathrain at all and would be more of a hindrance than a help.

I’ll keep looking. In the meantime here’s a quick update of my progress so far.

Out of the 26 tournament games played:

17 wins, 9 losses. 65.38% success rate. With a Punisher. :P
