Here, I will discuss recent tournaments and answer multiple questions from my Bloo Milk peers as pertaining to the latest V-set design! I will not, in any way bash any piece, and will not, in any way, argue with someone about a piece.... With this being said, I open the floor up to discussing my latest decesions on certain pieces. Piece 1- IG-88A I witnessed this piece being played in 2 completely different squad types, one in a low activation rebel squad with act control, levitation, and plenty of Disruptive, and a Seps squad with high D capabilities. The way this guy will be utilized is something of MARVEL! I predict this guy will see plenty of action in tournaments, so be well prepared to face him in different squads/factions. Wouldn't be to surprised to see this guy bring home a Regional or 2! Nice work design team, on probably the most efficient piece I have seen created in a LONG TIME! Piece 2- Satele Shan Satele, to my knowledge was only in 1 squad ran by none other than... Daniel ( Wasn't he one of the ones arguing she wasn't that great?  j/k) She was very efficient from what I saw, and the Atton, Carth, OR Senator combo with her IS going to be fun. I will say Regional time she doesn't win.... But come Gencon, when everyone has forgotten about her, out will come the sleeping bear! Piece 3- The Spotter I don't even care about the sniper... He is obsolete without the Spotter, who is competitive instantly in any squad they are in. This Spotter will change alot of heavy shooting squads around, and will instantly become a meta. I predicted a squad with a Spotter (maybe more specific Spotter, Morigan or IG's) will win Gencon. This piece opens up so many squad ideas and temptations to try that a combo that even I haven't found could come up! And for the record, here is a sleeper squad idea for the Seps that could spring into action. 7 Drones 1-Uggie Poggle The Lesser Gha Nacht San Hill 2 Spotters Lobot Mara Jade (Smuggler?) Boba Fett BH Piece 4- Mandalore The Vindicated What a beast this guy is... I ran him with the Training Sgt, and while he died in half of my games ( each one I lost) I still feel this guy is going to make his mark. I think the most competitive squad with him is still hiding, and I have a great feeling someone will break the mold of what is going to work best with this guy, and he will cause confusion. I sense 1 regional win out of the Mandos with this guy this year, but I wouldn't be surprised at all to see him win another one! Thank you all for taking time out of your day to read this edition of "The Prophets Corner". Please, feel free to comment and ask any questions about any of these pieces I have brought up. And remember everyone... " With a hammer you can build a house, but with Mace, you can win Gencon." Shmi15

1. I can garuntee that Echo never said that Satele wasn't that great. If there is to be productive discussion, you need to stop misrepresenting what people say. There is a difference between saying a piece isn't great and saying a piece isn't broken.
2. This is roughly 3 months too early. You can't predict Regionals without the other set that is going to have an effect.

No offense, but I'm a mod. Sort of my responsibility to be a wet blanket.

+1. I actually have a serious problem with my words being twisted and misrepresented like that. That's kind of the last straw for me with these ridiculous arguments from the same 2 people. Despite being proven wrong about almost everything (note that neither have bothered mentioning that Weeks absolutely destroyed the BHC Sidious last Friday night after they insisted that the BHC pieces were super broken. Weeks didn't lose a single piece to the BHC squad; the only characters on his squad that died at all were killed by his own MTB), they won't stop trying to start arguments. Between that argumentativeness and the disingenuous nature of many of their posts, I hope that the community at large doesn't put much stock into their comments.

He didn't use the Sideous, he played some republic team. All other points you made stand.

I guess I got lots of wrong information about that game. I don't even remember who told me about it, I thought it was David himself but I guess that wasn't true.
You two have backed each other up on almost every single discussion. The one about byes is the only one that I know of that there is disagreement. I'm certain I'm not the only one that lumps you two into basically the same category; that's how you guys have presented yourself, whether intentionally or not. When one makes a strong opinion about something, history has shown the other to quickly follow.

Even if we do see eye to on things the way in which we post are completely different. And as you said I do not like being misrepresented. If he offends you so be it, but do not drag me into it because we agree on things.
And yeah like I said don't post about what you don't know and act like I was so wrong about those pieces and how i got destroyed that is just sad. All I wanted to do that night was have fun and help Weeks get ready for the tournament... but I guess i was a douche on Friday night as well.

Whoa Whoa WHoa Whoa WHOA! What is going on here?
1. I clearly stated I was joking about Daniel saying Satele wasn't great? Did I not?? Please someone quote me if I am wrong.
2. Daniel, if you don't want me to joke with you, just tell me, and "The Prophets Corner" will not include you anymore. ( But don't expect an invite on the show!) <<<< To Soon?
3. SITHBORG You my friend are dissapointing me. I say something, and clearly state that I am joking, and I get the book thrown at me. Daniel gets on here and rants and raves about God knows what, and not a word is said? Does anyone else not find this disturbing? Please, if you are going to get in on conversations, treat everyone the same, and degrade the people really causing issues in this thread.
4. I thought I asked everyone to not start bashing and keep this civil in this topic? Someone please quote me if I am wrong again.
5. Daniel, you keep saying Trevor and I are wrong on things, but when we look back at the first prediction of Mace Windu... Who was right? Me or you? Cause I feel like he won Gencon, but I could be wrong. Just don't get mad about him because you ran Naboo Troopers and couldn't beat him. ( Isn't Naboo a weakness to Mace? hmmm)
And finally, number 6. Only on "The Prophets Corner" Can I get anyone to back me up on anything!!! Thank you jak, I know this is all "imho" but that one set of quotations means alot.
Just remember to tune in next time!!! And always remember
" When in Rome, build a squad based off of Weeks"

Quote:Piece 1- IG-88A
Piece 2- Satele Shan
Piece 3- The Spotter
Piece 4- Mandalore The Vindicated This does look like a reasonably sensible list of some of the most significant pieces from the recent releases. I don't think they'll sweep the entire existing meta to one side though; I think they'll just augment it. shmi15 wrote:5.

I am still 100% convinced that it was the reinstatement of GOWK's Soresu Style Mastery that boosted Mace enough to win GenCon. Last year he was looking like a total longshot. Unless you also prophesied GOWK's resurgence, or factored that in, I'm not buying that you're a prophet! shmi15 wrote:3. SITHBORG You my friend are dissapointing me.

1- I wasn't saying these pieces are going to dominate (minus the spotter) I was just giving my input on them and some sly predictions, I agree they won't completely change the meta... But neither did I claim they would
2. I didn't make my prediction until I heard the word the SSM was going to be unbanned, and was actually asked to play test that combo!!!!! That is where my prediction came in.
3. Sithborg 99.9% of the time does a great job... But on this particular topic, it happens to be the .1%. Everyone has an off day though, I just ask for fairness when he calls me out... But does not say anything to other people... Who in 60% of their post, claim false things. I think we could all agree on this.

being disappointed in a friend, does not automatically mean that one does not think they are doing a fine job
