Ben deserts us! The bounty is back on for everyone!  What upgrade/change would have to be made for anyone to bother playing primary weapons in arc anymore?  Also, what's going on with the X-Wing community?  Calm down!

Travis "The Johnson" Johnson, Duncan Howard, and Ben "The K Doesn't Stand for Keller" Kavanaugh attempt to get home from Canada.

Actual Content?  JUDGE!!!!

Anyways, followup on a few things, but mostly the Wave 13 announcement, how to nerf Nym and why, and why advanced sensors is such a bad idea for a card.

UK Nationals review and how to git gud

Echolocation pics are in the notes, if you're looking for them!

Chris, Travis, Tyler Tippet, and Matthew Erbe sit around and try to say somewhat coherent things about NOVA this weekend.  Moderately successful?  Git gud Dion.

Ben's back!  Also, wave 12 was announced.  Exciting!  With the Gencon results having had some time to settle, we talk about the win condition of Fair Ship Rebels and similar lists, compared to Rebel Regen.  Is it an abuse of the tournament structure/format?  Additionally, Chris is irrationally scared of Jostero

Also, Reddit FAQ.  If it drops, what effect do we expect it to have on the meta.  Any?  People aren't living in fear of mindlink anymore, but Dengar is a different story!

Two parts!

Part one Tyler, Chris, THE Zack Mathews, and Travis effectively chant KRAYTS ON TOP KRAYTS ON TOP KRAYTS ON TOP for a couple of hours

Part two Tyler, Chris, Paul Heaver, and your congenital host the great Chumbalaya and later joined by two very special guests attempt to stay awake Sunday morning in the convention hall of gencon and talk about pretty much all of gencon.

Chris's highlight of Gencon:

Tyler, Chris, THE ZACK MATHEWS CAROLINA KRAYTS PODCAST, and Trav Trav get together to follow up on aces and what makes the game fun.  How are aces different than bumpmasters and advanced SLAM?  Also, we're actually having fun now!  What should you take to Gencon?  Spoiler alert: whatever you want, just draw matchups like a god.

We were very short on time this weekend, so it's a bit of return to classic form

Also, for you Christian people out there, meet up with Zack before the swiss rounds at Gencon!

Notes?  Where we're going, we don't need notes

Guns for Hire stuff, I guess?  More importantly, what's going on with Wave 11?  Are we having fun now?  Are YOU having fun now?

We talk about game design in X-Wing.  Is it OK that I can do unstoppable damage to you?  Is it OK that I can be immune to damage from you?  What's an NPE?  What does any of this have to do with competitive play?!  Also, a discussion on control, what it means, and no, it's not just stress and ion, be less bad.

Someone leaked a potential upcoming FAQ and it's bad (the changes and that it happened at all).  People are wrong about what makes stuff good and bad.  Also, scum nym is advanced slam on crack and if you think you can outplay it you're wrong.

Here's the maps for Scum Nym with Genius:
