The Notorious Scoundrels - A Star Wars Legion Podcast

Evan and Mike cover the surprising news about changes at Atomic Mass Games (the studio that creates Legion) then dive into talking about Mike's Ahsoka list as he prepares for Worlds as well as covering other winning lists in the current metagame. We also once again are "shocked" by how much C3-LP screws up when talking about Legion and dive a bit into the revealed POINTS for Han and Luke on Tauns. We recorded this episode BEFORE we saw their insane command cards, more on that next week!00:00 Intro + Shifting Tides at Atomic Mass Games00:37 Mike's Tournament Win with GAR Ahsoka00:58 Open du Midi (France)01:06 Winter Open 2026 (Russia)01:12 Cincinnati Open01:18 Cherokee Open01:27 C3-LPWe are now sponsored by: Legion Terrain: Check out the terrain they sent me at https://www.legionterrain.com/collections/ice-planet Game Toppers: Making industrial-quality gaming-focused toppers that turn any table into a gamer's haven.

Mike and Evan chat up some recent winning lists and discuss the latest round up of legion stats.

Mike and I cover some basics from the Windy City open as well as another (?!) tournament where Evan goes undefeated but still doesn't win. After that, we cover GAR Tier lists and, OH BOY, Mike has some opinions.

Isaac and Owen from The Fifth Trooper Podcast join Mike and Evan to air grievances about Legion and other things in this much-shorter than usual episode with even fewer (YES I SAID FEWER) useful bits of information than usual. Mike questions the legitimacy of "Nyquil Chicken," Owen questions whether Star Wars Eclipse is even real, Isaac questions what the guy in line at Starbucks REALLY knows about public health, and Evan questions the TV viewing habits of his co-hosts...and also, whether there is literally any hope at all. 00:00 Introduction and Soda Delivery Systems 08:12 Introduction to Festivus 11:07 Mike Grievance 1: Star Wars False Starts 14:09 Owen Grievance 1: Issues with Sprues 20:12 Isaac Grievance 1: Shattered Realism 26:34 Evan Grievance 1: Militant Legion Hipsterism 30:50 Mike Grievance 2: Early Access Video Games 38:51 Owen Grievance 2: Mike Barry 41:39 Isaac Grievance 2: Mandalorians Don't Feel Good 44:52 Evan Grievance 2: Misinformation in Social Media 53:43 Mike Grievance 3: The Auto Industry 56:38 Owen Grievance 3: Not ENOUGH SW Holiday Special Watchers 01:00:13 Isaac Grievance 3: Overdue Legion Units 01:02:28 Evan Grievance 3: Corps vs. Core, Fewer vs. Less, Evan vs. his own blog 01:09:21 C3LP's Holiday Grievances

Evan (according to Longshanks, and literally no one else, a Top 5 CIS player at the moment) still avoids losing tournament games with Bike GG and STAPS, we finish talking about future releases, and RESPOND to some HOT TAKES given by the LEGION DEVS on...A DIFFERENT PODCAST? Then, Mike is finally mean to C3-LP, and our cruelty goes...un-rewarded.
