NB I left the skiff out, whoops
After seeing Mat Allen play a deck with the same start at my last tourney, i decided to give it a shot, seeing as it seemed very effective vs MKOS. The Deck can do it all, Battle, beatdown, Retrieve, Cycle and generally make life unpleasant for the opponent. There is plenty of Anti-tech in here which i will go into more detail later. After seeing a resurgence in DS Space Decks/big blue, i decided that a bit more space than i usually have was neccessary. Park Home 1 and Dash in the Outrider at tatooine, and id like to see them get rid of you, although watch out for tie cannons. You always Start Insurrection and Staging Areas, The 3rd effect is normally YISYW, but it changes accordingly.
MKOS - Battle Plan BHBM - DODN/WA HD - Insight Endor Ops- Menace Fades SYFCA - Battle Plan Court - Insight to pull honor TDIGWATT- Insight
Now people will say what happens if the oponent plays No Escape and puts down Vader and Tarkin at the farm for 4 force? its a pain in the ass, but not many people play No Escape in the UK, havent run into it in quite a while, even if it does happen, its not the end of the world. Basically just pull the docking bays and have people at them for activation, while cantina shuffling and retrieving with Celebration/OTE. Now for some card choices
Skiff Helps get round the pain in the @#$% that is the Tatooine Desert Heart, although with the Spaceport DB aswell, this may not be neccessary.
Spaceport DB See above.
Move Along I am starting to love this card. IF they come at you with a Chevin/Abyssin/whatever swarm, this card can turn a beatdown for you into a beatodwn for them.
Run Luke Run Duel Protection, Destiny 6, moves Luke over to a battle where hes power plus 2, what more could you ask for?
Dash + The Outrider I know they are pretty much useless unless they are together, but when they’re together you will have a hard time getting rid of them if they have the proper support.
Bo Shuda I HATE MOSEP AND I HATE GALID Well i like to use them, but you know what i mean. Stick any of the aliens at the AC, and watch MKOS’s drain potential lessen by 2 off the top. You could always add loje nella if you want, he is tech.
Matchups
Hunt Down
Should be interesting. Lots of battles, fallen portal is a god card, you can use their own docking bays against them with that and staging areas. Dont forget Run Luke Run cancels Obcession. They Shouldnt be able to match your drain potential. Cancel Visage with TT/OOC, and if vader goes OOC, its 80% over. Should win most of the time.
BHBM
This is non-existent in the UK, but if its big in your area, swap Luke with for Scout Luke. Keep Obi away From vader, Circle is not a pretty thing, although courage would save you and possibly send vader OOP. set up at the db’s and the cantina shuffle, they will have to come to you, thats when you beat them down, dont let them stack more than 2 cards. Should win most of the time again, but harder than HD
Endor Ops
Get Menace fades + Cantina Shuffle set up. Bye Bye their drain bonuses. Put all your ships at tatooine, dont be tempted to battle their ships, as you could be walking into a trap. Once their bonus’s are gone, they will be a bit screwed. Easy Win
SYFCA
Dont let them have a battleground site. Chop palpy or fallen portal him. Corran deals with Arica/U-3P0, as does SATM. IF/When they put someone at the death star db, put some people there with order to engage out. They get hurt either way. Watch out for milyoom onith, shes a @#$%. Hardest Match up, but definately still winnable.
MKOS
This deck is surprisingly effective vs MKOS. Battle Plan hinders them early on, and theres plenty of anti-MKOS tech. The SP DB in particular. IF they ever come to battle at your sites, you can use portal at almost all of them. Set up Battle Plan and Menace Fades, Plus Bo Shuda/OTE. AIm High really would be nice in this deck. Hard, But definately winnable.
Thanks for rating, please give your advice as to what to change. ‘
