Strategy: ‘
Before you say WHAT A PILE OF __, plz read the strat
First off, yes this deck was made for purposees of something called fun and suprise. No, I don’t think It will win a tourney (think). Yes, it is the first Court/podrace/numbers deck on decktech.
Startegy is the same for almost any deck in existance
Pull the docking bays for the two extra activation, and to rid your deck of 0’s. And really, look at my stuff. Do I really need more than 8 activation? I thought not. Does the opponent need more than 3 from me? I thought not.
Your guys will probably be safe at a battleground for a while, assuming u have a couple NSP or Imp barrier in your hand. I prefer NSP over imp barrier b/c it boots his guys and keeps the court loss going. But unforunately, aliens can’t be targeted by NSP, so at least one barrier is needed. This protection will allow to get out the characters u need for numbers, preferably a tech mo’r and 2 skrillings, but changes can be made if needed. Use expand on podrace arena if things get desperate, that will get rid of the other tat battlef=ground sites so although u will lose from court, so will they. And when they try to retrieve, u have imbalance )
usually start the podrace right off, it gives you a safe haven and let’s you pick and choose your destinies, along with letting you wait until you need the retrieval, letting your opponent take court damage and then retrieving back all of yours.
Combined force loss from court, podracing, numbers, counter assault, and imbalance will leave your opponent reeling.
I think that the main problem would be IF they managed to bypass NSP and barrier, or if I somehow didn’t have any, and killed of my guys for numbers. But that’s why I have multiple copies, and maul, just in case…
the main reason I’m not bringing it to tourneys RIGHT NOW is that YISYW will obviously hurty this deck A LOT, So I’ll wait until people stop using it to counter hunt down numbers.
The destiny in this deck is something that will hit the opponent wth something along the lines of a BAAAAAMMM. I think there were around 40 cards destiny 3 or above, most of them being 4s and 5s
pit droids are decent with numbers, and help against light side podracing
I just couldn’t resist Watto and his chance cube, too halarious and suprising to give up for a fun deck
See above comment for Krayt Dragon, just watch out for sabers) (bye bye qui-gon…)
sebulba will kill jar jar, and helps keep beatdown poweer down a little bit, with a nice power of his own
Dud bolt protects sebulba, teemto is good for a second podrace against a light podraceing deck
Imbalance is one of THE most underrated cards. Destiny 4 used interrupt. You retrieve 10 with MWYHL, lose 5. 10 with profit, lose 5. 6 with on/off the edge, lose 3 AND mess up that whole cycle. IF they won the podrace, they retrieve 11, lose 6. etc, etc, etc…
with the destinies in this deck counter assault was a must have. they can do immense damge to a bunch of weaklings guarding and draining at a site
You swindled Me = I retrive 3, you lose 1 to imbalance)
Pit crews is great for probing the opponent’s hand
abyssin orn is a destiny 5 that lets u pull the skrillings
Well like I said it’s a deck built for suprise factor, fun,and the thrill of speed), nothing else. Just seeing what u guys think.
thx
