eric hunter here. wou will have to bear with me cause i’m not gonna right it on word cause the text gets all messed up if i mispell something and it’s even harder for me to right it. well here it goes.
All week i had been playtesting with with mylight deck cause my dark was just so good. it only loses to my brother and with the few adjustments i had made, it has a better chance of winnning. well the main decks i made are as follows: hb with close air support(use endor and bespin) and mains, omdh with afa and some revo, and finaly degabah with afa and on the edge and superfalcon.
For about 3 weeks i had been playing a deadbolt, however it started to lose so i took it apart. however the night before the tourney i started to talk with mike gemme and i made of mine(with superfalcon and mains) with yannicks. sp basicly i had a stronger mains hit squad, and stronger space. i won’t bother posting it cause r2 is coming out. Well i didn’t have time to playtest it but i knew it was strong so i played that so my decks were:
Bhbm with some sac and deadbolt with epp hit squads.
so in the morning i got up and watched cartoons though it was all reruns witch sucks. i make a few changes to my decks by adding a hyper escape and putting in a forgoten hftmf. my dark i put in chybc cause i expected ebo drain and stuff. the ride over was uneventful so we got there on time. on to the games(note iwas rated 1960 before going into this)
game 1 against justin (forget your last name) ebo.
i start buy taking out emperor and put him at the ds2 db, i also put out caridia. he then signals for ansb but i sense it, so he just picks up. i then get out vader and then weapon levatate his stick and move emperor over with vader on cc. he gets luke to heputs down honor and draws. i do a damage via the effect on bhbm, drain put out janus and let him go. he gets out luke to 4th marker and draws. i drain and get out endor db and put iggy to where luke is. if i captured luke my objective would flip and i wouldn’t be able to duel with vader i jst drew destiny and he lost luke but he drew a zero so iggy stayed. finnaly he got ansb out but i had s&D and was draining for 5 so i won by 29.
highs-i practieced tracking forcelighting so i could use janus as a reacter terminal.
lows- beating him so badly.
game 2 vs. hayes hunter’s bhbm.
some people were stupid and played the wrong sides but hayes and i had the highest diffs so we just sat down for 15 minutes untill we could start. basicly my starting hand was great, endor, hoth wart room, echo:BD, and staging areas. that’s like 3 twixes. i activate and search for a general and take out lando and crix. noticing that i had a singal in my force pile i just drew some cards leaving, 3 force and let him go. he gets out vader and stick to cc and let’s me go. at the end of his turn i played the signal but he sensed and lost 2 more cards cause of do or do not which i had started. i activated, put out kewtol(which i had drawn first turn)to the db, put out luke to vader and picked up. he darined and drew. so i activaed like 14 force and put down crix pulled blount and drew looking for ansb. by now he has a bunch of efects including sectret plans out and i was hurting, but because of the do or do not and his objective he was also huring. he jsut drained and let me go. from there i got some space out out and he just was draining. he got some space out and i made some stupid errors, i only pulled 1 on the edge off, but i had gotten some damage through and only lost by 14.
highs-the great start
lows- the mistakes at the end, never getting ebo out.
after we where finished this hot lady was renting some dvd’s and justin asked if that was our mom, and then he asked if it was the schiemers mom. i then asked if it was brians cyzenski’s mom cause she was the same age of this 2osomething year old player and we had a good laugh. i don’t know, it’s one of those "shoulda been there" things.
game 3 vs.brian cyzenski’s court scum.
first off brina takes the entire football season off so this was his first tourney in a while and otherwise he’s really good. i get out ansb and take my generals out. he put some guys out to jabba’s sail bardge and moves them to the judland wastes. i get ebo out and lose one to court. i take the the drain and he draws. i put obi to his ac and get a ship out to a system to start draining. he somes and smacks obi but i don’t lose anyforce. he did have dannick jericho out and i hit with my saber. realizeing if i drew destiny he could lose somebody else first i refused to draw destiny thuse he had to lose jericho fisrt, and obi would not be placed out of play. next turn i just drain and back up my space. he drains and draws. i put dut down leai with obi to the judland after i frozen aseted his force pile to prevent barrier. i ploped down dtf and batlled against jabba’s sailbarge that had ree-yes and boelo. i hit both, then i clashed 1 so he couldn’t draw destiny. i draw a 5 forcing him to lose only the charecter and 7 or the everything. he chose the later thus also losing the twix from the sailbarge. that meant he only activated 7 force a turn now. i started my retrival with on the edge so i had myself a small lost pile. i also pread out and started to play frozen assets every turn as to prevent a smack on my ships. well he alters the frozen wich took me off guard, and then smaked my tala 2.i drained and put down the home 1 and moved lando over to join them. from there i just drained on the ground with leia and obi and battled him in space. however i did smakc him in 1 batlle and he lost all the batle damage, preventing me from retriving another 10 or so.
highs- playing brian, my deck worked great
lows- beating brian to give him his third loss.
game 4 against ben rodriguz’s tigih eloms
there were 3 undefeated people at this point all of which had played dark so i got to play ben(who was undefeated) since i was the third highest light.
i started by getting my emp out to the ds2 db. i would of put him at the endor one but i didn’t have vader... well he gets out a db and a charecter to it and moves luke over. i get out another db and put janus down to pick up luke and move the emperor over. I draw and finaly get vader. he puts down chewie, who i barrier, he then put down a 2 more eloms and batles, he draws a 4 and i drawa 3 or something so i lose janus and he loses a elom, he then moves over the charecters he had at the db to help the guys out he had against my lone emperor. i activate put down vader and stick, janus, and sim aloo, i yab chewie and batlle. i hit a elom a draw 2 destiny. we tie in power and i lose sime while he loses some. he retreats and let’s me go. i move emp and janus to cc and let him go. he puts down ben to his tat:db and moves a elom and chewie over to his chirpa’s hut. i drain and draw since i was getting no charecters. he sends some guys after the emperor put i barrier ecc lando so he dosen’t battle, he moves obi over. i drain then force lighting obi used, i put down mara with saber and iggy. i yab lando and batle. i atempt to capture obi but fail! i swing and hit obi though and i lose nobody and he stacks a card. from there we had som intense batles but i usualy barrierd his stuff and would have the upper hand, i eventualy got vader and the emperor to the ds2tr and crossed luke. id on’t remember that much cause there was so much battling. it was a great game with me winning it by 11.
highs-the game was great
lows-none
game 5 vs. steve beroni’s deadbolt.
this game went fast so i don’t remember to much. basicly i got set up fast but he got set up a little later. i had first strike and he had dtf so when we batlled(which i did most of) there was a 4 force swing. basicly i got a drain of 4 going and i went after him at the 4th marker so my s$d would go into efect. he kept his ships together so i would beat him up in space. the turning point was this. i tracked some destinies and put down mara with saber vs. leia and obi. i clash obi and battle leia. i draw a 3 and a 5. i then drew a 5 and he a six. he lost leia and 2 and stacked a card, i lost mara. there he spread out a little in space. i then deployed bosk and decngar vs tala 2 and red sqquadron 1. he reacted with spiral but i drew 2 tracked 5’s making him satisfy atrit of 13. because of that i was able to outdrain him and win by 13.
highs- great game, closer then i thought
lows-beating steve.
game 6 vs ben rodriguz’s endor ops.
this game also was very fast and i don’t remember to much. Basicly i got things going fast. but so did he. he then got out the executer and some star destroyers. i put down gold 1 with lando and numb along with the home 1. i make him lose bunch an i lose none. from there i put my epp hit squads of luke, leai, and han on the home 1 to get a bunce of destinies. i also had tala 1 at hotth the entire game so i had a steady drain while he never got 1 drain in. so since i lost very few force, the ones that i did i retrived via on the edge. so in a quick game i won by 31.
highs- my small space kicking but
lows-beating ben by so much.
