Have you ever played a match were you thought, when your opponent revealed his pieces, about one mini or more in his squad "Why does he draft that crap?" and afterwards he gave you a good beating with them, showing you what they can do?
Post your stories here, I'm sure there are some.

Jedi Sentinel.
I didn't play against it, but it was recently in a regional-winning squad. Wisconsin about a year ago, I think.

It hasn't happened to me....unless it has and I'm just not remembering but I laughed so hard when I read a comment under the Chadra-Fan Pickpocket! The comment came from "mercenary moose". Ever since then, I stocked up on them "crappy" pieces.

Love this title! Not so much crap pieces front.. but pieces you think "why is it in the squad, and then it destroys you",.... i've had the last 10pts killed on a big piece by a crit-wielding uggy before.. and i've done the same with BB-8 tazering the skirmish winning 10pts too.. awesomeness.. haha

He's not a bad piece by an standards, but i once had an opponent cross map snipe my Revan Sith Lord with the V-set Xizor. He needed like 18 to even hit. And he did, and he killed my Revan who had already used his two force abilities that turn. That cheesed me off pretty hard. But i won that game beating the other two people still in the game with Caedus Sith lord. Everyone was pretty salty after that game. (Good thing my friends arent super sore losers).
My girlfriend recently proved to me that healers are not useless. Beating me by having 20 hp on her Kenobi over my Maul (i know, the irony is staggering) due to a Polis Massa medic.

How did he use two Force abilities on Xizor's turn?

Sorry bad wording, i had gone First and it was Xizor's turn. I'd already used both my force "moves", so i couldnt use Lightsabre Defense

AT ST
Mine was back in the day before Vsets. Rushed old bane as tactically as I could up to a spot where I had to take cover instead of hiding completely if I wanted to hit it next turn. I felt good about my 24 D. Then it won init and double critted me for 160. I was SUPER upset as back then you played 150 point games, and to see my 82 point piece decimated in one attack phase was a bit upsetting. So, the stupid AT-ST that I joked about not being able to hit big bad Bane blew up in my face.

So even if you've already spent Force points on your own turn, you can still spend them again on someone else's turn.

I thought Zeb was very bad until he threw me out the same doorway three times in a row at the WI regional.

One year at the Wampa Stompa tournament in Virginia I put Mace in the force bubble with Pelleaon, moved Salacious Crumb in to attack, critted and killed Mace.

Still fondly remember my "Blood Tusken", who was a basic RS Tusken Raider thrown in to fill up a squad, but the MVP of a tournament back in the Universe Era, where by tournaments end, he had dished out over 200 damage and racked up around 100 points worth of kills. Basically, I was running him as a meat shield, getting in the way to protect Boba or Aurra from an attack. And since he's just an annoyance piece, my opponents would take the AoO to get away to focus on the big guns, but he would hit on the AoO, every single time. Then he'd run up and smack them for another 10 damage and repeat the process. And when someone would try to shoot him instead, miss. I later coated him in some red nail polish I had found, which made him look like he was covered in the blood of his enemies (Paint still looks good almost a decade later). Now as for the topic in hand, I'd say San Hill and Tempo control in general. It really took a lot of us by surprise when we discovered the benefits of going last. But as the format was only 100 points back then and the person who went first activated 2 on their first phase, it still wasn't as dominant as it is in today's meta.

I went up against a squad recently that my uncle had made, it was 3 ugg boss's, 2 ugg droid destroyers, a klatoonian black sun and the rest were ugg demos against my new derp vong squad. I couldn't see his idea until it was too late. He had completely surrounded my guys with about quarter of his demos, one grenades 10 later and I lost half my 250 vong squad to 30 demos. (Extra large map.) then he surrounded my guys again before I could do anything, and 3 rounds later I was done. A 250 squad destroyed through bad rolls and suicidal ugg's… worse still, he had about half of his ugg army left. I had made 0 kills that didn't get my guys killed. 250 to him, 100 to me. I've said in the past that I hate ugg demos, but now it's a mixture of utter loathing and deep well founded fear.
Another would be See-Threepio. With an R2 in the team, if you miss even one shot, or you need one door to stay open real bad, your gonna have a really REALLY bad time.
