Comment on Reviews WHAT kind of friggin’ comment is ”you better be able to track.” READ THE STRAT, see all the crap on tracking? Damn you should NEVER play this kind of deck if you can’t track, pull SA for 6’s? what so i can try to blind duel? that’s the dumbest thing I’ve ever heard.
UPDATE Pull a you are beaten, add in Search and Destroy. To smack up some MWYHL action, if its REAL MWYHL, your too fast for it. Nothing new, you just gotta be carefull. if its the Machine Killa type, well duel there ass and make sure you win P its basically a mains and toys deck, just a friggin good one.
Played properly, this deck should destroy most other decks out there. My favorite part about is jsut how fast visage is… your opponent is losing cards, turn 1. Doesnt matter how if they go first or not, theyre chucking that card.
It has the SAC to control the game… It is so easy to track with this deck, you should know if you have that 1 (or 2 with empy out) on top, and half the time (or more) the opponent cant even stop yours. This can absolutely devestate a light side sac heavy deck.
It can drain along with its visage quite easily, janus, vaders stick, maras stick all add to drain, and its not hard to find either the cantina or back door.
Worried about them cancelling your visage? Sense trans terminate, Drop ephant there with power of the hutt, sense choke, or just go get another one with masterfull move. The executor docking bay lets you get guys off the executor if they do invade. The only way i can see them really getting rid of visage is with a DeadBolt… and even then, its hard.
The character removal in this deck is HUGE, even without evazan. Dueling, choking, you are beaten, and IG-88. The light side mains dont stand a chance, all of its power comes in teamwork, which you destroy.
Tracking is so easy in this deck, masterfull move, Janus, and operational as planned make it easy as hell. Example op as planned a visage or dueling card back. then use janus, and drop another visage or dueling card back. or use masterfull move. you just set yourself up with a 5 and two other damn high cards. Janus also lets you get what you need in a pinch… tracking that visage for destiny, but your just got cancelled? grab another. Same with dueling cards, sense/alters.
This deck could use another emperor, but I dont have one. Security Precautions would be nice too, but not overly neccessary. Bubo would be my first extra card to throw in….
Some basic match ups TIGIH anything but speeders if you can, op as planned and drop vader first turn. Lukes already out of the game.. dont blind duel Obi, theyre likely to have high destinies too, make sure your ready. This deck sucks, destroy it.
TIGIH with speeders heres a carefull match up. find that cantina, drain in chirpas hut, have visage kill em. Dont venture outside except in force, with tons of forfiet… Example, Emp, Sim, Mara, and Vader toghether. two destinies, 22-23 power, and 30 forfiet. you might be safe )
Hidden Base Mains Dont Over committ, drop vader early as always, and maybe a tad of back up (janus and such) but keep some hitters in your hand to smack him up. Same as any other game.
Hidden Base flip Cause some damage before the flip, then use your judgement to probe.
Profit this should be easy. Duel Luke, Duel Ben, kill Han, game over. I personally wouldnt start mara and ephant mon, thats just asking for a choke and some early beatings, but the choice is yours.
Profit non mains Smack him up. You got a monnok, Sense/Alter, and power. you should be able to win pretty easily.
Agents Chadra Fans Drop ephant mon in there chamber first turn, no kabe for them give him a bit of back up and watch for the choke, sense it at all costs Easy game if they cant get kabe out.
Agents and Speeders havent played it yet, it scares me ) Drain inside, Visage will hit em, hurt them when you can, and be carefull
EBO youll cause too much damage too fast, EBO is way too damn slow for this kinda stuff. Save mara to duel luke, if theyre smart theyll drop him at the north ridge. Wait till you get two ships in hand, then go smack him up somewhere…. make sure you have a 6 or something ready and you dont bite off more than you can chew, though.
Deadbolt Well the way ive seen this deck go so far, you should be ablt to beat it. Maybe the people here just cant play it right… It was played fairly well, and annoying as hell but that visage loss every turn made it hard for him to guarantee that what he wanted was on top. A little too slow for a deck like this.
