Chirrut Îmwe

The list that he played in the finals, um, was, I believe, Jyn and Princess Leia.

So it was Jyn, Kallus, Rebel Commandos, Leia, Charming to the Last, Luke Skywalker, Daring Hero, uh, and then Baze and Chirrut.

Um, and he's playing this very aggressive, like, use re-rolls.

You know, you've seen what Jyn can do, right?

But maybe Lyra Erso understood them a little bit better.

Chirrut Imwe understood a little bit better.

A Jedi would understand it differently.

Darth Vader would understand it differently in that regard.

Um, So yeah, I mean, but am I surprised that he went, that Calvert went 4-0? He is like a wizard when it comes to playing that Ewok list with his Leia, because it's Leia, C-3PO, Ewok Trappers, Hera, Sabine, Rebel Commandos, and then Logre...

With Chewie and the Pathfinders and then General Solo, Luke Skywalker, Daring with Baze and Chirrut.

I mean, and he's, you know, that's his just go-to list.

I think like he plays some variation of that in all of the major tournaments that he plays and just does fantastic with it for sure.

Jyn briefly plays the role of Han Solo and rejects their cause until Director Krennic himself tests his new weapon on Saw Gerrera's base, obliterating Jetta City.

Escapees from the city include the blind warrior Chirrut Imwe, the soldier Baze Malbus, and the cowardly former Imperial pilot Bodhi Rook.

The gang attempts to locate Galen on Edo in hopes of finding the weapon's weakness.

Cassian intends to kill him but cannot get a clear shot, losing his only opportunity once the base is attacked by rebel squadrons who kill Galen in front of Jyn.

There's just these little moments of like...

Man, the stormtroopers can't hit the broad side of a barn or whatever.

But I think watching a blind guy with a stick walk up to you and just totally beat you to pulp, you know, is another level of it's just like it's like, man, how how incompetent can we make these stormtroopers? Chirrut Imwe just schools them with a stick.

I mean, I think the idea is he's obviously force sensitive.

that's the crux of

it, is that the Baze and Chirrut nerfs really, I think, crippled them in a way that, like, just kind of, like, pulled the whole faction down.

Like, we just really saw, like, how much the faction was leaning on them.

And now that they've been brought down, nothing really feels like, you always feel like you are making sacrifices in very key positions to try and get your synergies going.

time.

Wait, wait, Sam, hot take time.

What tier would you put Baze and Chirrut in now? C tier.

Okay, what tier would you put...

I got shot in the room like three times.

I mean, you did wax Baze and Chirrut.

They were double wounded before the end of the first struggle.

Actually, now that I'm going to think of it, I guess you didn't have that much killiness.

No.

Because Baze and Chirrut didn't even attack anything until they activated, which was the last activation of the deck.

and that was the beginning of the second struggle so they beat up some b1s but so does everybody yeah so you really made them look good

you joked a little bit that like it was like harrah jinn like how's that such a killy list i think that the game actually just is so much killier now than it was when droids were

We've got Cap'n Coos.

So he has given us Cassian and Baze and Chirrut.

Oh, it's so old school, Captain Kuz.

So old school.

I'll just move on.

So,

yeah, look, I think the Baze and Chirrut are also really good.

I think Baze, I like he's done a little freehand on the red for Baze on his red armour.
