Hey all,

I think I'm settled on this list (at least in terms of hulls) for the store championship season, but I'm wondering about some tweaks.

So my main question is: Connor net or cluster mines?

I'm learning bombs and it seems hard to drop the potential of 6 damage (and a lot of area denial) from clusters for an ion/action denial & 1 damage.

Am I missing something about the Connor net? It just doesn't seem to be strong enough...

It's amazing when you pair it with Sabine Wren. Seeing as you can't, you might be better off with Cluster Mines.

When they both came out, only hit results counted on Cluster Mines, so Conner Nets gave you consistent damage and control via ion. Now that you get a potential 6 damage through though...

I'd seconded the Clusters over C-Nets in this build

The C-Net is nice for tangling ace's but like Mr R said its really needs Sabine and K-Wings to shine
