Strategy: ‘

Okay. Last time I posted this deck, it was bashed by those of you who did not read the strategy. Many of you said Speeder Ops and Revo would destroy it, and you were right. But I stated in the strategy that the deck is easily modifiable to counter both of those strategies, which are quite unpopular around here. I have yet to play against Speeder Ops in a tournament. But, to satisfy all of you critics, I made the changes anyhoo.

Here we go Set up in space ASAP. Draw for Wakeelmui and use Twi-Lek for Reactor Terminal. Throw key doubles back to avoid Grimtaash. Do not draw excessively. If Luke or Ben hit the table early, draw for duel initiators and wait until you have Focused Attack before dropping Vader down to do his work. Also, make some attempt to set up destinies if you have half a brain. What about the Super Falcon you ask? Overwhelmed is nice tech for the Super Falcon, as it sends it home like its Elian Gonzalez. Also, I have Dengar AND Lateral Damage to shaft the Falcon. Surprising to many, I removed Well Guarded. The reasons being are this Grimtaash is a seldom played card these days, at least around here. Plus, I have Reactor Terminal, which works well. And never draw a shltload of cards into hand, or you will draw attention and be Grimtaashed. But if you are absolutely paranoid, take out whatever for it. I would suggest maybe a TIE or whatever.

vs. Ops Start Battle Order. Soon you will have ABCTTU set up and when coupled with your retrieval, you should have no problem winning the drain race.

vs. Mains This is what the deck is meant to counter. Go for the early duel. Drain in space and retrieve. Versus Throne room, start Crush, and if you see SAC, look for Dark Forces. A plethora of you suggested I take DF out, but you all do not realize its tech value. The ONLY way they will Sense or ALter a damn thing is if they have Luke down and draw a site. This is rather rare, and if Luke is down, I will go duel the little brat.

vs. MWYHL Drain, drain, and drain. If opponent trains Luke instead of Daughter, take Vader down to Dagobah and duel the little son of a Bltch.

vs. X-Wing Swarm This is a tough match. Avoid the weapons and look to catch him with his pants down and do the beatdown. Visage will work wonders.

Cards thinking about adding

Big One - nice way to recycle TIEs and set up huge retrieval engine.

4th EPP Vader - might get screwed on the draw…

Always Thinking With Your Stomach it can be plain funny when you make Ben missing.

Frustration - anti-grabber tech for APTW, Twi-Lek, etc.

EV-9D9 - to get Torture from reserve. If this dude goes, so does Frustration.

Damn I’m tired of typing… ‘
