I just picked up this game with the kids recently and still learning it. Interesting to see how the pros play.
I think for next year's final though the coverage could have some improvements:
- Show the dice rolls more clearly (make them roll into a box with a dedicated camera over it maybe - dice cam)
- Slow the play down a little, so commentators can make it clear to viewers who is attacking who, or give the players mics so we can hear their calls.
- Announce any upgrades, etc being actioned more clearly (maybe have the commentators sit close to the table)
- Have some graphics or show picture in picture showing the players cards & current shield/hull damage cards
Some of these suggestions are probably "noob" focused and would slow the play down a bit, but would also add to the spectacle.
Otherwise very cool, thanks.
The graphics they've used here are the sort of thing that would be cool. ua-cam.com/video/tXvZEFNzzN4/v-deo.html Could just fly graphic in and out now and then, wouldn't have to be up all the time.
look at other groups who do coverage. Team Covenant and also Sanctioned + Monday Night Xwing are all wheeling for the best coverage overlays.
captainschneiderman post production graphics a la TableTop episodes would be amazing. if Wil Wheeton can do it on a shoe string budget i am certain that FF could manage.
Re. dice - rather than rolling in to a box, just put the dice on the screen post production with some computer graphics?

I like it when you say you have no time to comment a lot on the Forums but you are reading them a lot. I gotta say it shows. You guys often adopt ideas from players and fans from the forums! Thanks for that guys, keep it up!
Fun intro to the video but the game actually starts at 22:00
thx
It's so great that Han flew straight into the asteroids right away. It feels like exactly what Han Solo would really do!
It is and he would.
;D
I wish they had a stop motion of this.
Big congrats to Paul. Both played very well and still i feel Paul deserves thid because he flew not only well but perfect, absolutely flawless there. In this game i don't know where he could have flown a single better maneuver anywhere. He cleanly outmaneuvered an opponent that flew well himself, but still stood no chance, just got outwitted (with a tiny bit of luck sometimes for Paul sometimes). Still, very big thanks to both players. I really liked watching this great game. Thumbs up, and i hope next year we will see the one time... two time... THREE time champion of the world maybe! XD
Nice match, but since this was the WC Final, I would have expected a better Video setup and quality.
Great game and matchup.
Also, where can I get one of those handheld lasers?
Oh that was another option I was looking at. I went with the smaller one and it's perfect, also bright. Glad to see the one you got also works great.
Wow so much hype around this game ! I'll have to try it...
There needs to be a TV series on just board game plays !
+rick s Why? That's why we have UA-cam.
+rick s
Tabletop?
I love this game everywhere I'm a kid
Does anyone know the exact name of that hand held laser? Would love to order one but so far no luck with my online searches.
+m s Did you ever find it? I'd love to pick one up (in the usa) too.
+m s I found this one at walmart a couple days ago...it is rather bulky, but it produces a very bright, very straight line...just like the ones I keep seeing on youtube! I'm very pleased with it so far!

What was Paul Heaver's "Fat Han" upgrades?
Predator, R2, C-3PO, Falcon Title, Engine Upgrade
I love this game everywhere I'm a kid it so fun
What does the points remaining counter mean?
+Ian Tuma Before you begin, you build squads worth up to 100 points. As ships are destroyed, their point value is subtracted from that counter.
Notice Paul's us of the range filer when laying down his Falcon. He measures in to the centre of the table. Clever.
20:30 game start
So to win, the only ships you need to buy are Han and Whisper and a couple to fly with them?
Anyone know where I can pick up a laser like they use here (that creates a line on the table) in the usa for cheap?

Hey, thanks :) I actually found just what I was looking for a couple of days ago at walmart. It was a bit more than I was hoping to spend, but I sure am glad I picked it up! Produces a very bright straight line just as I was hoping for!
It's the Black & Decker Laser Level.

Is there a Twitch Channel from you guys`?
Yes. Search ffg.
I really like the game, but Team Covenant do a better commentary on games.
Can they use the remaining points during the game?
Now I see it. The points decrease when you lose your ships.
you can skip to 6:00
I can appreciate the commentary to an extent, but you guys went off on tangents way too many times to have added significantly to the discussion. No offense to you FFG guys as you've made a great product, and you're no doubt just trying to fill in the time and have good intentions to do so, but the discussions were not terribly meaningful to what was going on, on the table. A few times I could hear the guys at the table - it would have been good to be able to hear them banter back and forth instead.
Also I wish I could get clear dice
+Xavier Cervantes You can't?
+Skeletor Jopko his parents wont let him
if you commentating on the game.... commentate on the game.... not completely irrelevant stuff. some watch the pros to learn (surprise!)... so if the commentary is all over the place.... it significantly damages the game itself. please learn, please get pros in to talk about the game, and try to talk about the players motivations in the game itself. I watched for an hour then gave up.
Uh..You know that comentators need to fill the holes in the boring moments (like the set up stage or the very boring first round), when you can only say one sentence about the maneuvers you have to talk about something else. (and talking about your favourite ship isn't that far off).
But srsly, when you want to learn the game, read some guides, watch some strategy videos on youtube, but don't expect to get a newbie guide to X-Wing from the ephing FINALS of a tournament + FROM A LIVESTREAM at the End of a long day, full of streamed games.
Yeah, if you've ever watched any sporting event (or even chess), the same thing happens. Some commentary, some instruction, a lot of random comments.
wait a second... The Tie player started in a pinwheel formation... I thought that doesn't fit behind the starting line...
The hefty commentator guy sounds like Seth Rogen.
+angus matheson and TJ Miller for the other guy haha
+angus matheson Dude needs a tea with lemon and honey at the next tournament if he thinks he can comment for 14 hours.
I though he sounded more like Seth Green.
Oo yea him too.
Taking a phantom is not flying casual. Kills it. :-)
You should have the announcer refrain from using the word "unmolested." I get that the word in and of itself doesn't mean anything negative, but there are so many better choices.
Fun watching. Best part was how long it took the two announcers to do basic math XD
camera not so good. xD
Swarming the Falcon was a bad idea
This game took almost my whole pay check this month... and the fucked up part is that i`m not at least sad for it...
Yes found something that is doable. I got this Skil handheld laser. It is small, and very bright. I been using it for many games that require checking LOS. Here is a link to Amazon which is where I bought it.

IM CHRIS PRATT... BECK??
this is like the worse 720p video ive seen lol
If you play four games a week for one year thats four times fifty two so 208 and if you've been doing that two years you're looking at 416 games.
+ianturna it's how much is still "alive"
Horrible, horrible commentary. Game first, then other crap. Even your promotions need to be secondary to the game. Pay the frack attention!
Good match, not great. 2013 final match was so much better. No two games are the same in X-wing. Love the game :-)
Amazing videos. You guys really do produced some funky stuff. If you get a moment check out our channel too
The more I continued to watch this...the more annoying the one host's laughing was. He sounds like a snake hissing and I'm very tempted to just mute the video.
os brs são fodas não to nem ai pa nada
gg wp
Frank..please stop laughing..never again!
