I just played against an opponent while we were testing a bunch of lists for an upcoming event, and for one game he took 3x the cheapest PS K-wing, with TLT and Conor Nets... 99pts even. And I had flashbacks to this guy playing 3x Firespray in an effort to game tournament rules and win on pts/time, instead of fully engaging.

Now that the big-ships have to face new scoring rules, do you think this list is a novelty, or something we might need to expect?

No.

K-wings, with their one agility, will die quickly to focused fire. Once one of them is down, the other two can't put out enough damage long enough. Also, without Advanced SLAM, it's a lot easier to avoid their Conner Nets.

Yeah. It can be nasty if you are facing them with all PS1, but unless they have better PS they are easy to catch and kill.

I think the 3 TLT will find its match in things like the 4 B-wing build. 4 K-wings are tough, no doubt, but they are slow and very vulnerable to getting ganged up on. Sure they have SLAM, but 4 Blue Squadron Pilots should be able to outgun it and mostly avoid the conner nets with advanced sensors.

It's a strong list, I think there are several other lists that match up with it nicely

Pretty much this.

I recently played a list with 2 K's and a Y-wing all with TLT's a, went 4-1 but I think some of that was due to the novelty of K-Wing's and the TLT and opponents not quite being sure how to deal them. Any game where I lost one early really was an uphill grind, and by now folks will have figured to focus one and then move on. However that said with the big ship rule change a pimped out Miranda really could be a thing
