Introduction and Hosts
00:00:05
Speaker
Alright, welcome back everyone to the Artificery Star Wars Unlimited Podcast Episode 7 now.
00:00:14
Speaker
We've made it to 7.
00:00:15
Speaker
We were off last week, did some streaming for you guys.
00:00:18
Speaker
We're back this week to talk about everything that happened in the past two weeks.
00:00:22
Speaker
With me like usual, we have Garrett aka Zero Hour and we have the other Nick aka TaxDirk.
00:00:29
Speaker
And I, your host, am the Gandork, or Nick, aka the Gandork.
Recent Gaming Experiences
00:00:36
Speaker
Um, where do we start?
00:00:39
Speaker
Like, what are you playing lately?
00:00:41
Speaker
Like, we did some streaming last week.
00:00:44
Speaker
There's like a league going on.
00:00:46
Speaker
What are people playing?
00:00:47
Speaker
What are you liking?
00:00:48
Speaker
I'll start with other Nick.
00:00:50
Speaker
Go.
00:00:52
Speaker
I haven't played a whole lot outside of what we played last week.
00:00:55
Speaker
Um...
00:00:57
Speaker
I've been busy, have not gotten around to doing the League thing.
00:01:00
Speaker
I'm considering it.
00:01:02
Speaker
But yeah, otherwise, I've been liking Krennic a lot.
00:01:10
Speaker
And I like what all the tools that Luke got recently with the big legendary Luke.
00:01:18
Speaker
I haven't got to play a ton of Luke in green because I was still trying to build him in yellow.
00:01:22
Speaker
But I think I've seen a lot of people shift into green.
00:01:26
Speaker
command Luke, Luke with command, and I think that works pretty darn well.
00:01:31
Speaker
Especially because there's the new 3-3-2 drop that came out in the last few weeks, too.
00:01:37
Speaker
So, just a lot of tools to make that deck just kind of stick above what it used to be before.
00:01:43
Speaker
And I like playing Luke.
00:01:45
Speaker
Honestly, with what we have right now, you can tell that I'm a sucker for blue because I like Luke, I like Krennic, and I like Chewie.
00:01:52
Speaker
I know Chewie's not super great, but he's
00:01:56
Speaker
I still like him.
00:01:56
Speaker
Just play those control archetypes.
00:02:00
Speaker
What about you, Garrett?
00:02:01
Speaker
Have you played anything?
00:02:03
Speaker
Krennic.
00:02:05
Speaker
Just so much fun.
00:02:06
Speaker
He's my style.
00:02:08
Speaker
The mid-range, like, you don't get to do anything for four turns kind of deck.
00:02:13
Speaker
It's just fun.
00:02:15
Speaker
I just really like playing Krennic.
00:02:16
Speaker
His ability's great.
00:02:17
Speaker
He got more tools today that we'll talk about.
00:02:20
Speaker
Oh, yeah.
00:02:21
Speaker
He's just fun.
00:02:23
Speaker
I don't know.
00:02:23
Speaker
People still like mock me for liking Krennic on the discord.
00:02:28
Speaker
I'm like, you fools.
00:02:29
Speaker
He's like top three leaders still to me.
00:02:32
Speaker
Like, I love it.
00:02:33
Speaker
If there's a more controlling deck, like what's the best that we have?
00:02:37
Speaker
Like Luke?
00:02:37
Speaker
Luke is the only other one that's kind of there.
00:02:39
Speaker
And Luke's still kind of just like maintain board control, get big dude out and smash.
Deck Strategies and Debates
00:02:45
Speaker
I mean, Thrawn.
00:02:46
Speaker
Yeah, I don't think Thrawn's making a lot of waves right now, though.
00:02:52
Speaker
Not yet.
00:02:53
Speaker
It doesn't have the finishers.
00:02:55
Speaker
Like, yeah, no, Krennic has had the finishers if you're in blue with Dooku and Avenger if you played it.
00:03:02
Speaker
Yeah, Luke has the finishers now.
00:03:05
Speaker
Either Luke or Chewie, like Thrawn doesn't have finishers for at least a slow controlly deck.
00:03:11
Speaker
I mean, if you're going to run Thrawn with blue, then I'd probably put Avenger in there just because it's... Yeah.
00:03:17
Speaker
I haven't updated it yet.
00:03:18
Speaker
Yeah, I like it more than Chimera.
00:03:22
Speaker
Yeah, but the hard part... I like Regional Governor a lot, too.
00:03:27
Speaker
Like, just being able to, like... If you can stop the one thing that you know is going to be the thing that helps you fall behind the game, it's just huge.
00:03:37
Speaker
Yeah, it's a huge ask, though, if you're playing villain to not be in green right now, I think, is the problem there.
00:03:42
Speaker
Oh, yeah, yeah.
00:03:42
Speaker
Green is carrying villain right now.
00:03:46
Speaker
Like, Avenger or Overwhelming Barrage.
00:03:47
Speaker
Avenger, like, yeah.
00:03:51
Speaker
I mean, I run Yellow Krennic, so I don't run Green.
00:03:54
Speaker
Or no, Krennic.
00:03:55
Speaker
No, Krennic, yeah.
00:03:58
Speaker
What does Yellow Krennic get that makes you really want to play Yellow?
00:04:02
Speaker
The Yellow Events, I guess, and Bossk.
00:04:06
Speaker
Shoot First, No Good to Me, Dead, Surprise Strike, Weylai.
00:04:10
Speaker
I mean, I guess they're fine.
00:04:12
Speaker
You get the good...
00:04:14
Speaker
Like, the thing is, you really don't have good ships if you're playing Krennic in Blue or Green.
00:04:20
Speaker
Because you're just stuck with, like... I'm trying to even think what I run in Krennic.
00:04:26
Speaker
I don't run a lot of spaceships.
00:04:28
Speaker
I find other ways to deal with them.
00:04:30
Speaker
I mean, I assume you run a TIE Fighter, because why not?
00:04:33
Speaker
No.
00:04:34
Speaker
Really?
00:04:34
Speaker
It doesn't get a bonus from Krennic is a hard part.
00:04:38
Speaker
It doesn't get a bonus from Krennic, and it doesn't necessarily do enough.
00:04:41
Speaker
Like, it...
00:04:42
Speaker
It doesn't trade into any of the hero vehicles that have three health and you don't have a good way of making it trade into them either.
00:04:50
Speaker
It's like TIE Fighter and Veers or Bust.
00:04:56
Speaker
Yeah, I think you can play TIE Fighter with Vader or TIE Fighter with Tarkin because you can pump them up.
00:05:00
Speaker
Yeah, exactly.
00:05:01
Speaker
The extra damage.
00:05:02
Speaker
It's hard to play it outside of those.
00:05:05
Speaker
I mean, if you're playing a lot of other ships, it works too.
00:05:07
Speaker
But there's just not a lot there in blue and green ship wise at the cheap level.
00:05:13
Speaker
And there's like the there's the there's the one vigilance ship that's like a two cost two one that shields another vigilance unit.
00:05:20
Speaker
I don't like that.
00:05:21
Speaker
It's just kind of terrible.
00:05:22
Speaker
It's just kind of terrible.
00:05:23
Speaker
It has the same problem.
00:05:24
Speaker
It's still a two one that can't trade with any of the two threes.
00:05:29
Speaker
You play tie bomber or tie advance.
00:05:33
Speaker
Not tie.
00:05:34
Speaker
I always think that that is the bomber for some reason, but it's not.
00:05:40
Speaker
Yeah, tie advance is still good enough.
00:05:43
Speaker
By the way, yeah, no, yeah, I played mostly just the games that we had.
00:05:47
Speaker
And yeah, like definitely, I think the theme of, you know, our play session last week was we were just seeing how good the blue hero end game is.
00:05:57
Speaker
We played quite a lot of quite a few games on both sides where just the end game of like, here's Obi Wan into Luke is this really tough to beat.
00:06:06
Speaker
Yeah, I guess it's so much value in those two cards.
00:06:09
Speaker
Um,
00:06:10
Speaker
Until you waylay Obi-Wan twice in a row.
00:06:14
Speaker
And then you just lose.
00:06:15
Speaker
I did do that.
00:06:16
Speaker
But it's time walk you for three resources for two rounds in a row.
00:06:22
Speaker
Felt pretty good.
00:06:25
Speaker
Yeah.
00:06:25
Speaker
And then, you know, our huge debate at the end of last stream of aggro and should it exist?
00:06:32
Speaker
Garrett is a firm hater of aggro.
00:06:37
Speaker
I thought I was just a hater.
00:06:38
Speaker
I don't know.
00:06:39
Speaker
Nick is.
Gameplay Mechanics and Meta Strategies
00:06:40
Speaker
Sorry.
00:06:40
Speaker
Yeah.
00:06:41
Speaker
Yeah.
00:06:42
Speaker
Yeah.
00:06:42
Speaker
Taxter hates.
00:06:43
Speaker
Taxter is the hater of aggro.
00:06:45
Speaker
I'm kind of a lover of aggro.
00:06:47
Speaker
Garrett, where do you, where do you, what do you think of aggro?
00:06:49
Speaker
Where do you fall?
00:06:51
Speaker
I mean, I think it's fine.
00:06:52
Speaker
Most of the time.
00:06:52
Speaker
Like, I think if you're, the game should have enough answers for,
00:06:58
Speaker
early like pushes um and i think it does for the most part it's just getting them is the hard part um but i don't know i'm i'm since i'm more of a mid-range kind of control player like aggro doesn't yeah scare me that much most of the time that's because mid-range we have stuff is on the better end to deal with it yeah and and that's fine if it does i just in my mind it's always i
00:07:24
Speaker
There's always just a very, very thin line between when aggro is too strong.
00:07:31
Speaker
And it's just like, it doesn't matter what I played.
00:07:33
Speaker
I just can't beat that deck more than 20% of the time.
00:07:37
Speaker
And that just feels bad.
00:07:39
Speaker
And I'm not saying that's where we're going to end up in the end.
00:07:46
Speaker
But I don't like having huge swingy matchups in a meta.
00:07:50
Speaker
And I think aggro can often lead to that.
00:07:54
Speaker
I think to some extent though, like some, your deck's not, whatever deck you play, you don't want it to feel good into everything.
00:08:03
Speaker
Like, I think that's probably not healthy for the meta either.
00:08:05
Speaker
So if you're like, I just don't want to see aggro.
00:08:08
Speaker
Yeah.
00:08:09
Speaker
Like if you're like, I'm the control deck that the only thing I don't want to see is aggro, but I'm good against everything else.
00:08:16
Speaker
That's fine.
00:08:16
Speaker
Like that, that's the, the, the design pillars, at least, you know, aggro beats the like really slow control.
00:08:23
Speaker
mid range, hopefully beats agro and then control.
00:08:26
Speaker
Hopefully just beats mid range because they're too slow to stop them from getting to their tricks.
00:08:32
Speaker
And I mean, I think I like playing a a slower mid range deck like I want to play the board and I want to gain control of the board and then win that way.
00:08:40
Speaker
I don't necessarily need to kill.
00:08:44
Speaker
Well, I just don't I don't like usually like put seem as much value pushing face early.
00:08:50
Speaker
because I lean towards the more controlling end of midrange.
00:08:54
Speaker
Midrange, yeah.
00:08:54
Speaker
I usually say the big difference between a controlling midrange and an actual control deck is the actual control decks are...
00:09:02
Speaker
usually comfortable with making plays that just stall the game that don't necessarily change the board.
00:09:08
Speaker
And then you're running more high end, like, just like I'm running all the capital ships and not a lot of other units.
00:09:14
Speaker
Cause all I'm just trying to do is wipe your crap out.
00:09:16
Speaker
All I need to do is get to turn seven.
00:09:19
Speaker
Yeah.
00:09:19
Speaker
But I don't like that feeling either.
00:09:20
Speaker
Cause then, then you're also on a razor's edge of like, well,
00:09:25
Speaker
I'm not fighting for the board and with units.
00:09:27
Speaker
So I have no way of, if I don't have the tools to do exactly what I do need to do, or they get a good enough combo together, then you just fall behind and die.
00:09:37
Speaker
Yeah.
00:09:37
Speaker
Like one of those things I was going to say, we're like outmaneuver, which we'll talk about in the spoilers is a card that a control deck probably likes to play, but a mid range deck doesn't because mid range deck,
00:09:48
Speaker
doesn't want to just spend three resources to stall.
00:09:51
Speaker
That's what a lot of yellow kind of feels to me.
00:09:55
Speaker
Like that's kind of like where Thrawn kind of feels too, where it's just like, he's not really gaining you ground.
00:10:01
Speaker
He's like trying to stall for something.
00:10:03
Speaker
I just don't, haven't really seen what Thrawn's stalling for yet, but that's kind of where I see that kind of same play style.
00:10:12
Speaker
Yeah, what were you going to say, Garrett?
00:10:15
Speaker
I mean, I think with this game specifically, I mean, any game that runs sideboard stuff, you can deal with aggro with sideboards too.
00:10:22
Speaker
Like, you might drop game one, but you'll have ten cards to put in there.
00:10:28
Speaker
And even if it means just, like, early Sentinels, so that they have to run into your Sentinels early.
00:10:33
Speaker
The thing is, there's not necessarily good early Sentinels in access to every deck right now.
00:10:41
Speaker
Like, villain all has cell block guard, at least at something.
00:10:45
Speaker
I mean, if you're running blue, you get the Cloud City guard.
00:10:48
Speaker
That's true.
00:10:50
Speaker
He's weird.
00:10:51
Speaker
He's kind of expensive for what you get, but...
00:10:55
Speaker
Yeah, Clubs of the Wingard has felt less great the more cards that we get.
00:10:59
Speaker
Like, early on, I guess you had to play him, but now you're like, he's a 2-4.
00:11:03
Speaker
He's only a 2-4.
00:11:04
Speaker
I don't care that he has Sentinel.
00:11:05
Speaker
It feels kind of bad.
00:11:06
Speaker
I mean, my hope is that we'll get something, some kind of upgrade that gives Sentinel.
00:11:12
Speaker
Just, we've seen all the kind of staples with upgrades so far that I think we'll probably get it, but who knows what's set.
00:11:21
Speaker
It'll come out.
00:11:22
Speaker
Like, it will happen eventually.
00:11:23
Speaker
Yeah.
00:11:24
Speaker
And it also depends on the cost.
00:11:26
Speaker
Like, if it's cheap enough, you can deal with aggro with that.
00:11:30
Speaker
Yep.
00:11:31
Speaker
And I'm still, like, the big thing that I'm kind of, like, that has me more worried about aggro is just, like, in space right now.
00:11:39
Speaker
Because
Designer Insights and Card Previews
00:11:40
Speaker
it's just, like, when you're talking about efficient space units, aggro has them, and...
00:11:46
Speaker
anyone else has to play the same stuff or just worse stuff.
00:11:50
Speaker
Space is in a weird spot with what we have right now.
00:11:53
Speaker
For one, I was taking note that there's literally no five drops in space right now, so that's weird.
00:11:59
Speaker
The six drops, we've got another one this week, are also different.
00:12:05
Speaker
All the ones that we've seen are different, but...
00:12:09
Speaker
their stats aren't the same as like what you're expecting in a six drop on ground.
00:12:14
Speaker
Cause we know there's not parody, but like an a wing for two has the same good of stats as like what you get on ground.
00:12:21
Speaker
So like the a wing is just straight up overstated in my opinion.
00:12:25
Speaker
And it just, it's just hard to get around it.
00:12:27
Speaker
Like there are answers to it.
00:12:29
Speaker
There's not good answers to it at the same cost in, in cards, in other units, there are combos that get you there.
00:12:37
Speaker
Like you can play tie fighter into Tarkin and,
00:12:40
Speaker
You can do it, but that's a lot.
00:12:44
Speaker
Yeah, I think part of that problem right now is just like that issue you're having of like, I can't officially deal with like, you know, these space units and hero can like be super easily answered if we just get like one, even just one or maybe two removal cards like.
00:13:02
Speaker
in the 90 cards we haven't seen.
00:13:05
Speaker
Like, I don't think it takes much to.
00:13:07
Speaker
Yeah.
00:13:07
Speaker
With that problem.
00:13:09
Speaker
Like I agree to reasonableness.
00:13:10
Speaker
Another cheap removal thing.
00:13:12
Speaker
Another.
00:13:15
Speaker
I mean, even I just like like if a villain bright hope they could use that, but it's just like bright hopes like the only kind of like.
00:13:25
Speaker
Early game Sentinel.
00:13:28
Speaker
ship we have right now like the distant patroller is the same cost it's available to all blue without a penalty and the system patrol craft yeah it's just a patrol craft not patroller but yeah it's fine you know like that it actually probably do the job a lot of times but yeah i think probably more people play that after we talk about the red three spoiler that came out this week i think the value of system patrol craft keeps going up
00:13:55
Speaker
I'm just like, I don't care if it's not that big.
00:13:58
Speaker
I just need a space sentinel in my deck that I can drop.
00:14:02
Speaker
Yeah.
00:14:04
Speaker
um anyway that's we went off on a tangent on on what we play but that's fine um i have the next topic for today uh we had the designer chat this week uh on wednesday uh yesterday from when we're recording this where they essentially it was just like a round table with danny tyler and jeremy where they just talked about like some of the design philosophies and
00:14:28
Speaker
behind the game we did get some previews out of it but i don't know if i gleaned a lot of like i don't know there's some interesting like anecdotes that they shared but i don't know if there was a lot of information that we hadn't heard before in some way or another um does anybody else have any other insight they want to share about it garrett nick nothing really specific no
00:14:51
Speaker
Nick, did you have anything?
00:14:52
Speaker
I'm trying to remember.
00:14:53
Speaker
There was a card, I think, that they split.
00:14:56
Speaker
Oh, yeah, that was the Red 3.
00:14:59
Speaker
Yeah, we got Red 3.
00:15:01
Speaker
I'm trying to remember if there was actually any big insights.
00:15:04
Speaker
They showed the official English version of Avenger that wasn't a weird screenshot.
00:15:08
Speaker
I guess the biggest insight is that Tyler doesn't know who D-House is.
00:15:12
Speaker
Okay, that was funny.
00:15:14
Speaker
They did have the issue starting it up.
00:15:16
Speaker
And yeah, they did talk about D House's 12 Days of Christmas videos.
00:15:20
Speaker
I've been watching those.
00:15:21
Speaker
Those are fun.
00:15:22
Speaker
Yeah, they're fun.
00:15:23
Speaker
But yeah, I was like, have I met him or something like that?
00:15:28
Speaker
Maybe, I don't know.
00:15:31
Speaker
But yeah, I don't know.
00:15:32
Speaker
It's an okay watch if you're super invested.
00:15:34
Speaker
I don't know if there was anything in there that I would tell someone like, oh, you got to go rewatch this.
00:15:40
Speaker
But there was some fun stuff in there.
00:15:42
Speaker
I'm more excited for the upcoming one because they're actually going to be building their own decks.
00:15:46
Speaker
So like last week's stream was the building.
00:15:51
Speaker
I mean, that's the other thing is we hadn't done a, there was also a stream last week that we hadn't talked about, which was the Jeremy and Tyler playing modified starter decks.
00:16:00
Speaker
And Jeremy didn't change a whole lot.
00:16:03
Speaker
And Tyler added the new big Luke legendary unit to it and change it to
00:16:11
Speaker
command Luke.
00:16:13
Speaker
So that was cool to see.
00:16:17
Speaker
I like that more just to see.
00:16:19
Speaker
I like it more, but I was going to say I was kind of disappointed that they didn't change the decks.
00:16:24
Speaker
I wish I never said changed the Vader one more for sure.
00:16:28
Speaker
And we'll see.
00:16:28
Speaker
Hopefully we'll see some some spiciness with with the next week's one, because that's when they're all bringing their own decks.
00:16:35
Speaker
They're not just modifying the starters.
00:16:37
Speaker
Yeah, I hope so.
00:16:39
Speaker
Well, I assume Jeremy's bringing Boba because he's already said that's his favorite.
00:16:44
Speaker
Yeah.
00:16:45
Speaker
Hopefully we'll get some spice from somebody else.
00:16:47
Speaker
Maybe we'll get a new leader we haven't seen.
00:16:51
Speaker
Yeah, but I think everybody was expecting them to have some new stuff.
00:16:56
Speaker
And I was disappointed that the decks that they played felt less ingenuitive than what the community has built and played out of the same spoiled cards.
00:17:07
Speaker
And I know they said that, like, oh, hey, we're just showing that you can modify starter decks to be different.
00:17:14
Speaker
I don't know if they necessarily show that they made them better.
00:17:19
Speaker
I don't know.
00:17:19
Speaker
It was weird.
00:17:20
Speaker
Still to me.
00:17:23
Speaker
Jeremy got his first win.
00:17:24
Speaker
So he's got that going for him, which is nice.
00:17:29
Speaker
And we already briefly talked about it, but like there is a league going on right now for the people that want to go find out where it is.
00:17:35
Speaker
I just wanted to give them a shout out.
00:17:37
Speaker
I think it's Rebel Trader is on a separate discord, which I haven't joined.
00:17:43
Speaker
But like if you ask about it in the main community, it's important to point you in the right direction.
00:17:48
Speaker
Um, so if people that might be interested in that, go looking for it.
00:17:53
Speaker
Um, and with that, let's get into some previews.
00:17:57
Speaker
Um, we were going, we were thinking, well, before you joined in, Nick, we were trying to figure out like how many previews do we have?
00:18:03
Speaker
And we actually have, well, this week we've had six, I think.
00:18:07
Speaker
So that's the last time we talked, there's been 12.
00:18:11
Speaker
Well, we talked about the Avenger.
00:18:14
Speaker
Yeah, we talked about the end of the day.
00:18:16
Speaker
Ten.
00:18:16
Speaker
Ten new ones to talk about is what we have today.
00:18:20
Speaker
And just go, I'm going to work from the bottom up of the DB here, which means the first one I'm going to talk about is Jyn Erso, our new leader that we got.
00:18:30
Speaker
She is the cunning heroism leader.
00:18:34
Speaker
The other one, the counterpart to Han Solo.
00:18:38
Speaker
On her leader side, she has an action to exhaust her and you can attack with the unit.
00:18:42
Speaker
The defender gets minus one power, minus zero HP for this attack.
00:18:46
Speaker
She is a rebel and then you can flip her at six resources to deploy her and her deployed side.
00:18:53
Speaker
She's got four power, seven HP, and then just a blanket constant effect that while a friendly unit is attacking, the defender gets minus one, minus zero.
00:19:04
Speaker
Garrett, give us a breakdown.
00:19:05
Speaker
What do you think of Jin?
00:19:07
Speaker
I think she's fun.
00:19:08
Speaker
I mean, I think she needs some more tools at the moment.
00:19:11
Speaker
But like anytime you can knock off, you can take less damage.
00:19:15
Speaker
It's worth it.
00:19:17
Speaker
Like that could be the difference of your guy staying alive for one more turn and then forcing, you know, it forces them to go into you.
00:19:26
Speaker
it makes your sentinels better too.
00:19:27
Speaker
Cause you can attack with a sentinel into something and have it hopefully live, you know, if you're playing it right and use a sentinel to take out two guys, you know, stuff like that.
00:19:36
Speaker
Like, I think she's pretty good.
00:19:38
Speaker
I think her deployed side is really good where it makes everyone better.
00:19:43
Speaker
Um,
00:19:45
Speaker
If you can keep her alive, that's the real trick.
00:19:47
Speaker
She's a full seven, so she's not squishy.
00:19:51
Speaker
She'll stay alive.
00:19:53
Speaker
I mean, she is the same size as Boba Fett, and Boba Fett comes out around earlier.
00:19:58
Speaker
As is everything.
00:20:01
Speaker
Boba Fett is stated like every other six cost, but comes out at five.
00:20:07
Speaker
Yeah, which they did kind of explain that.
00:20:09
Speaker
I can't remember on which stream, but they're like trying to say that.
00:20:11
Speaker
Oh, yeah, that was a take.
00:20:12
Speaker
I was a hard sell for me.
00:20:14
Speaker
They did say that Boba Fett was because they thought that.
00:20:20
Speaker
His ability was more situational.
00:20:22
Speaker
Yeah, like a lot of other people's abilities are situational.
00:20:25
Speaker
You're not always having the mana or the resource to shield Luke with Luke.
00:20:29
Speaker
You don't like like I don't know.
00:20:31
Speaker
It was a it was a kind of weak feeling excuse to me.
00:20:35
Speaker
But yeah, the minus one power isn't always beneficial on gin.
00:20:40
Speaker
I guess this is the point there.
00:20:41
Speaker
Like sometimes it changes a trade.
00:20:44
Speaker
When we played it last week, I played some gin and like we put it out.
00:20:50
Speaker
Yeah.
00:20:51
Speaker
That didn't matter.
00:20:52
Speaker
Yeah.
00:20:52
Speaker
There's like sometimes it mattered and sometimes it just didn't.
00:20:56
Speaker
Like it's not that dependable.
00:20:58
Speaker
Yeah.
00:20:59
Speaker
It's not always going to matter.
00:21:01
Speaker
Yeah, but I don't know.
00:21:02
Speaker
I think the bigger problem, at least with Boba, is I feel that with Boba, you have more agency in planning for it to work out.
00:21:11
Speaker
Yeah, because it's all on your end.
00:21:14
Speaker
Yeah, where like Jhin is actually harder to pull off than Boba.
00:21:19
Speaker
I would think their deploy cost should be flipped because on the Jhin side, you have to hope unit math adds up such that the minus one power...
00:21:30
Speaker
does something like if you still end up just trading off units anyway it doesn't necessarily help I don't know sidetrack anyway I like Jin though I think that she could do stuff well just cause I feel like a few good trades and you're like really far ahead and since she's the common leader I definitely would pick her in limited I feel like oh yeah
00:21:59
Speaker
that that will probably be more useful more often there.
00:22:05
Speaker
Yeah, for sure.
00:22:05
Speaker
Yeah, I could see unlimited that gin would be better and Boba is probably tougher to pull off unlimited because you can't control, you know, the curve cost of your deck quite as well that it wouldn't, you know, you might waste the resource anyway.
00:22:21
Speaker
So maybe I'll just get a lot of limited.
00:22:22
Speaker
Yeah, maybe.
00:22:25
Speaker
All right, moving on to the next card that was spoiled, Outmaneuver.
00:22:29
Speaker
It is a cunning, single cunning aspect event, costs three.
00:22:34
Speaker
When you play it, you choose an arena, ground or space, obviously, and then exhaust each unit in that arena, yours and the opponent's.
00:22:42
Speaker
Texture, what do you think?
00:22:45
Speaker
It's an interesting card.
00:22:46
Speaker
It's...
00:22:49
Speaker
It helps in those situations where you just get overwhelmed and need an out for a turn, but it's not buying you a whole lot of ground.
00:22:57
Speaker
I don't know that you're ever really playing this at three, like the second round, because you're likely dealing with one ship or one ground unit, and then you're not building anything on your board.
00:23:11
Speaker
So it's definitely more late gameplay.
00:23:13
Speaker
It's probably a sideboard card for...
00:23:17
Speaker
Don't have a lot of ships in my deck and I need a way to deal with space.
00:23:21
Speaker
So let's just exhaust them all until I can deal with them more.
00:23:25
Speaker
I can see room for this in the maybe running double cunning and trying to go hard in one lane.
00:23:34
Speaker
Between that and the actual cunning card, you actually could have one of these around for multiple rounds and maybe that's enough to push you through.
00:23:44
Speaker
I don't know.
00:23:44
Speaker
Things cost resources still, and you don't have infinite of them.
00:23:47
Speaker
So you can only play so much cards that don't actually change the board state in the long run and expect to come out ahead.
00:23:56
Speaker
I just don't know the actual math, but it'll probably see play.
00:24:02
Speaker
Yeah, what about you, Garrett?
00:24:03
Speaker
I think it's getting a control deck.
00:24:05
Speaker
It's probably not one I'd play in like my Thrawn or Krennic that I've been running just because it's just too slow for those, I think.
00:24:14
Speaker
But it's a card you'll see in control because as we talked about earlier, control is all about getting to the last round.
00:24:25
Speaker
And this will help you get there, but it's not really going to help you do much else, I think.
00:24:32
Speaker
Yeah, I mean, you're spending resources to tap their stuff down.
00:24:35
Speaker
They're still spending resources.
00:24:37
Speaker
Yeah, and yours potentially.
00:24:38
Speaker
And your opponent doesn't have to pay a tax and they're still dropping more things.
00:24:43
Speaker
So it buys you time, but doesn't necessarily buy you advantage.
00:24:46
Speaker
So like the use case where that is beneficial, I think you're slim, like in mid range, mid range.
00:24:52
Speaker
Maybe like you said, if you're going past each other in different arenas,
00:24:56
Speaker
It might make sense.
00:24:57
Speaker
Maybe it makes sense in a control deck.
00:24:59
Speaker
I'm not sure
New Card Reviews
00:25:00
Speaker
if it has a home yet, really.
00:25:03
Speaker
If we ever see Mill, I think it'll be good in a Mill deck.
00:25:07
Speaker
Yeah.
00:25:08
Speaker
Praying that we don't know what it will look like in here.
00:25:12
Speaker
um yeah uh next card the wilderness fighter uh it is a three cost single vigilance aspect unit uh ground unit that is a two power four hp and shielded uh garrett what do you think of the wilderness fighter
00:25:34
Speaker
I mean, it's fine.
00:25:35
Speaker
I think it's fine.
00:25:35
Speaker
It's going to be fine and limited.
00:25:38
Speaker
I don't think this makes the cut in most of my blue decks.
00:25:42
Speaker
But coming out as a 2-4 shield is nice.
00:25:44
Speaker
It's just the three cost is a little iffy for that for me.
00:25:51
Speaker
And it's just a trooper.
00:25:52
Speaker
Like, it doesn't have anything else on it.
00:25:54
Speaker
So unless we see more trooper stuff.
00:25:57
Speaker
then it probably isn't worth it until then, at least for me.
00:26:01
Speaker
But I think it's a great limited card.
00:26:05
Speaker
I see that coming out in limited, and it's hard to deal with.
00:26:09
Speaker
Well, not only that, it's the perfect body to throw any kind of upgrade on, and you're not going to have as many options to deal with those in limited either.
00:26:16
Speaker
So I'm just like, this is a dude you can count on being there and throwing a trench on him or something else that's cheap.
00:26:23
Speaker
Feel good about yourself.
00:26:25
Speaker
I think he's Chewbacca's best friend.
00:26:27
Speaker
Yeah, I would say, like, you play this, the only construct that you ever play this in is Chewie, because he is the best value you can get for that.
00:26:36
Speaker
It's the Cloud City Wingard with a shield.
00:26:39
Speaker
Yeah, he can block two things before he dies in the late game.
00:26:43
Speaker
Yeah, that's solid.
00:26:46
Speaker
Yeah, I think the only other
00:26:47
Speaker
The only problem with him and Chewie is like, I wish there was like a space unit that was shielded like this that Chewie could play.
00:26:54
Speaker
Cause then that would be feel really great.
00:26:56
Speaker
Oh yeah.
00:26:57
Speaker
Like he's got the ground covered.
00:26:59
Speaker
There's a lot of ground units that feel good to make sentinels.
00:27:03
Speaker
There's not a lot of space stuff.
00:27:05
Speaker
Like we kind of mentioned earlier that feel good to make sentinels thrown in front of those a wings and red threes as we'll talk about.
00:27:13
Speaker
um next card uh the partisan insurgent it is a two cost single aggression ground unit uh that has one power four hp is a rebel trooper uh and then while you control another aggression unit this unit gets raid two this seems really good taxter i'll let you review the aggro card
00:27:37
Speaker
That's an aggro card.
00:27:38
Speaker
I don't know.
00:27:40
Speaker
I don't know if you play it outside of... Do you play it outside of mono red?
00:27:44
Speaker
I mean, that's the only thing.
00:27:46
Speaker
It's not red 3 that can be any heroism card.
00:27:50
Speaker
This one does have to be another aggression card.
00:27:52
Speaker
So if you're playing a mono aggression deck in hero, I think you're absolutely having this because it just works with everything and
00:28:00
Speaker
you know, fighters for freedom kind of like synergy with that.
00:28:04
Speaker
I mean, ideally you drop this on the first round and you play fighters for freedom, the second round and boom, you have two, three, fours essentially attacking, which is just gross and pain to deal with.
00:28:15
Speaker
So, um,
00:28:18
Speaker
Yeah, I mean, it seems good.
00:28:19
Speaker
I don't actually know if it's one of the most efficient things out there or not right now compared to what else we have for aggro for in-hero, but maybe.
00:28:28
Speaker
Yeah, I was going to say it's kind of like a ground version of A-Wing.
00:28:32
Speaker
Yes, I mean, it is.
00:28:34
Speaker
But you can actually deal with stuff on the ground a little bit easier, too.
00:28:38
Speaker
I think, I don't know.
00:28:39
Speaker
I think there's a lot of Sabine aggro decks that still play this.
00:28:42
Speaker
Cause I think if you look at the units that go in the Sabine aggro deck, like most of them are red almost no matter what color you put her with.
00:28:49
Speaker
Like I play Sabine in blue and like the restore.
00:28:53
Speaker
Yeah.
00:28:56
Speaker
I guess there's a lot of, he doesn't trigger off like the, the heroism only units either.
00:29:01
Speaker
So that's a negative.
00:29:03
Speaker
You can wing leader him, but the wing leader doesn't like give him his boost.
00:29:08
Speaker
So I don't know.
00:29:10
Speaker
I think we'll probably have more red units coming, so probably will feel pretty strong.
00:29:16
Speaker
I think I like it with Braggart.
00:29:18
Speaker
I think that's kind of interesting.
00:29:20
Speaker
Oh yeah, Braggart's the one-cost one.
00:29:22
Speaker
I mean, is Sabine playing Braggart right now too?
00:29:25
Speaker
Mine does.
00:29:26
Speaker
I think a lot of them.
00:29:27
Speaker
Yeah, Sabine usually does because it's so efficient.
00:29:29
Speaker
Because Braggart also has Raid too, right?
00:29:31
Speaker
Yeah.
00:29:31
Speaker
Yep.
00:29:33
Speaker
But it also just makes it so that you have to deal with one of them.
00:29:37
Speaker
Like, you can't ignore them both.
00:29:39
Speaker
You have to deal with one of them.
00:29:41
Speaker
Grand Inquisitor got another card.
00:29:43
Speaker
It's another card for that deck.
00:29:45
Speaker
Oh, that's true.
00:29:45
Speaker
It's not actually heroism, so... Yeah, and it has a raid and has a low power.
00:29:50
Speaker
That's not terrible.
00:29:51
Speaker
Yeah.
00:29:53
Speaker
He's got that and Braggart as, like, red units that can take a hit and stand up.
00:29:57
Speaker
Stuff that he can play out early.
00:29:58
Speaker
Yeah.
00:29:59
Speaker
Yeah.
00:30:01
Speaker
Um...
00:30:02
Speaker
Anyway, moving on to the really super awesome card that we played last week, but we haven't talked about yet.
00:30:08
Speaker
Luke Skywalker, Big Daddy Luke, the legendary.
00:30:14
Speaker
He's a seven cost ground unit that is a vigilance heroism aspect.
00:30:21
Speaker
He's got six power.
00:30:22
Speaker
He's got seven HP.
00:30:23
Speaker
He's got the force.
00:30:24
Speaker
He's a Jedi.
00:30:25
Speaker
He's a rebel.
00:30:26
Speaker
He's got restore three.
00:30:29
Speaker
And a when played ability, you can give an enemy unit minus three, minus three for this phase.
00:30:34
Speaker
But if a friendly unit was defeated this phase, you give that enemy unit minus six, minus six for this phase instead.
00:30:41
Speaker
Straight up killing Star Destroyers left and right is what we saw, at least when we played last week.
00:30:48
Speaker
Garrett, break down Luke for us.
00:30:51
Speaker
He's fantastic.
00:30:52
Speaker
He's worth seven.
00:30:54
Speaker
He is...
00:30:58
Speaker
I don't really have the words to describe it.
00:31:00
Speaker
He's, he's really good.
00:31:01
Speaker
Like he's another rebel.
00:31:03
Speaker
He's a force Jedi doesn't do much for you yet, but I, I mean, we all know it will eventually.
00:31:09
Speaker
Um, but force trigger stuff.
00:31:11
Speaker
He gets a rebel bump.
00:31:13
Speaker
Restore three.
00:31:14
Speaker
Like he, you can't, you can't, and he just comes out and like, he just kills something.
00:31:21
Speaker
Like you can't do anything about it.
00:31:24
Speaker
Yeah.
00:31:25
Speaker
Yep.
00:31:26
Speaker
Seems good.
00:31:27
Speaker
I think he's better than Dooku.
00:31:29
Speaker
Dooku is really good.
00:31:32
Speaker
He can't get takedown and takedown is like, I don't take down is definitely quickly becoming the like de facto removal card.
00:31:40
Speaker
Everybody that runs blue is going to have three of those that like that.
00:31:44
Speaker
You can't not have takedown takedown is going to be a super common to see, assuming people are playing vigilance.
00:31:50
Speaker
But so he's immune to that.
00:31:52
Speaker
He doesn't kill himself, which for better or worse, you're not playing the mind games of a Dooku of like, am I going to die?
00:32:02
Speaker
If you play your first Dooku and they play Dooku, you lose.
00:32:07
Speaker
Luke also beats Dooku if something else died.
00:32:10
Speaker
Which if somebody Dooku'd you and you play Luke, you kill the Dooku.
00:32:15
Speaker
He doesn't care about shields.
00:32:16
Speaker
He has more attack.
00:32:17
Speaker
He has Restore 3.
00:32:19
Speaker
And the only thing he doesn't have the Dooku has is a shield.
00:32:23
Speaker
And I think that's fine.
00:32:25
Speaker
I think he's great.
00:32:27
Speaker
I don't think the Rebel keyword does a lot for him just based on the decks he's going in.
00:32:33
Speaker
That's like... To me, Rebel doesn't feel as good as Imperial as a keyword just because Dodonna just feels like worst of years.
00:32:42
Speaker
And I don't think I'm going to be playing him for the most part in decks that I'm playing, this big Luke.
00:32:47
Speaker
Like the decks that I'm playing, the Rebel keyword synergy is more in...
00:32:53
Speaker
I mean, Leia.
00:32:55
Speaker
I don't know that I'm playing Luke in a Leia deck.
00:32:57
Speaker
Maybe there's a room for a blue-green Leia.
00:32:59
Speaker
It is very expensive in Leia.
00:33:03
Speaker
At least the ones I've built are usually kind of aggro to mid-range in Leia.
00:33:07
Speaker
I guess the biggest thing that you're going to be able to get without a Rebel is probably Fleet Lieutenant, if you want to run that for some reason.
00:33:14
Speaker
Yeah, you can be wing-leader.
00:33:16
Speaker
And wing-leader.
00:33:17
Speaker
It's the little things, I guess, that matter.
00:33:20
Speaker
I don't know, like, with Wing Leader, though, if you need to put any more eggs in your loot basket.
00:33:24
Speaker
If you have anything with Wing Leader, you shouldn't.
00:33:28
Speaker
Does he need plus two, plus two?
00:33:30
Speaker
Based on the current ground stuff, becoming an eight power thing doesn't necessarily give you a lot more.
00:33:39
Speaker
Yeah.
00:33:40
Speaker
For what's out there.
00:33:42
Speaker
No, yeah.
00:33:43
Speaker
So, yeah, we all agree.
00:33:44
Speaker
Luke is insane.
00:33:45
Speaker
He's a legendary.
00:33:46
Speaker
He's probably going to be a money legendary for the set.
00:33:49
Speaker
Oh, yeah.
00:33:49
Speaker
Up there with Boba and, I don't know, maybe Falcon.
00:33:54
Speaker
But, yeah, let's see.
00:33:56
Speaker
We already saw the Jedi lightsaber.
00:33:57
Speaker
We talked about that last week.
00:33:58
Speaker
The Battlefield Marine.
00:34:00
Speaker
This is one that they spoiled in their play.
00:34:04
Speaker
The other one, I guess, Luke was from the game that they played on stream last week.
00:34:08
Speaker
But, yeah, the Battlefield Marine.
00:34:10
Speaker
This is a two-cost ground unit that is in command and heroism aspects.
00:34:16
Speaker
It's got three power and three HP and is Rebel Trooper, and it is vanilla, but it's still really good.
00:34:24
Speaker
Nick, tell me about that.
00:34:26
Speaker
This is fantastic.
00:34:27
Speaker
I don't think there's anything, like, two-drop-wise that...
00:34:31
Speaker
is just straight up solid stats on the ground side.
00:34:37
Speaker
It doesn't really die to as much, and it can kill most anything.
00:34:41
Speaker
I mean, there's like 1-4s where it's going to beat them out.
00:34:45
Speaker
But I mean, it's just a good body.
00:34:47
Speaker
And I think you're going to play that as your main 2-drop in any green heroism deck.
00:34:53
Speaker
It's kind of an interesting, like I feel like this is the
00:35:00
Speaker
analog to the the shore trooper that villain villainy has and at the two slot in green where it's a two three so this thing beats the shore trooper but in the long game they trade evenly when it becomes a four three shore trooper is way sexier though and i mean that's true people don't like tentacles aren't in yet but no but he does have this guy has a harpoon on his back i don't know who he's harpooning in battle but yeah i don't even know where that man is supposed to be anyone he wants
00:35:30
Speaker
Anyone he wants to harpoon, he's ready.
00:35:35
Speaker
But yeah, no, it's just, it's pure value.
00:35:38
Speaker
Like, yeah, it is the shore trooper version in hero.
00:35:41
Speaker
And I think you play it like I play shore trooper in every, you know, command villainy and I will, I mean, I thought shore trooper where I saw it was like, this is, this card is going to be great.
00:35:51
Speaker
And it ended up being like, it is like great.
00:35:54
Speaker
And everybody, everyone plays shore troopers.
00:35:56
Speaker
So yeah,
00:36:00
Speaker
I didn't think that a 3-3 generic would be my favorite reveal from last week, but it was.
00:36:07
Speaker
It's just really good.
00:36:10
Speaker
It was your favorite over Luke?
00:36:12
Speaker
Yeah.
00:36:13
Speaker
There's something wrong with you.
00:36:15
Speaker
Play it even more than Luke.
00:36:17
Speaker
There will be games where you might not play Luke.
00:36:19
Speaker
You'll play more of these than Luke, probably.
00:36:21
Speaker
You'll play this.
00:36:22
Speaker
You'll always play it.
00:36:24
Speaker
This guy's a common, so you will see it in draft and you'll be happy to have this in draft.
00:36:30
Speaker
This one won't cost me like 50 bucks probably.
00:36:34
Speaker
Right.
00:36:34
Speaker
Yep.
00:36:36
Speaker
If you want to get the all foil hyperspace battlefield Marines for your deck, it'll cost you 50 bucks.
00:36:41
Speaker
I doubt it.
00:36:43
Speaker
You're right.
00:36:44
Speaker
Well, I don't know.
00:36:45
Speaker
The hyperspace.
00:36:45
Speaker
I don't know what the hyperspace and foil treatment will be because you can supposedly get like both where it's a foil hyperspace.
00:36:51
Speaker
We also haven't seen any foil cards.
00:36:54
Speaker
I can't believe they're hiding those still from us.
00:36:56
Speaker
I just I just want to see one.
00:36:59
Speaker
I wonder if they actually have them yet.
00:37:00
Speaker
I have a feeling they don't have them in hand.
00:37:04
Speaker
They must not.
00:37:05
Speaker
Or just like they have really early proofs and they like want to wait until they have like real ones.
00:37:10
Speaker
Yeah.
00:37:11
Speaker
I mean, that's one of those things where like you could show a screenshot of it and it's not going to be the same.
00:37:16
Speaker
No.
00:37:16
Speaker
It's like.
00:37:18
Speaker
Maybe we should have a screenshot.
00:37:20
Speaker
Yeah.
00:37:23
Speaker
Uh, let's see, moving on.
00:37:24
Speaker
We did see the echo base generic base.
00:37:26
Speaker
We don't need to talk about it.
00:37:28
Speaker
It's a generic command base.
00:37:30
Speaker
I have a lot of thoughts about echo base.
00:37:36
Speaker
Oh, but next to that, we have another pretty exciting, uh, spoiler from earlier this week.
00:37:44
Speaker
Uh, we voted like they decided for, you know, we're, we're done with the aspect months and, uh,
00:37:50
Speaker
This month is going to be double aspect month, basically, where every week people are voting on remaining double aspect cards that we haven't seen.
00:38:00
Speaker
And everybody picked the cunning one this week.
00:38:02
Speaker
Cunning one, much to the chagrin of many.
00:38:05
Speaker
We didn't get enough cunning cards, so.
00:38:08
Speaker
But the spoiler, or the preview for this week was the Cantina Bouncer.
00:38:13
Speaker
It is a five-cost ground unit with double cunning.
00:38:16
Speaker
So they're all double this week.
00:38:17
Speaker
It's got three power.
00:38:18
Speaker
It's got five HP.
00:38:20
Speaker
It's a fringe trait.
00:38:23
Speaker
Then when played, you may return a non-leader unit to its owner's hand.
00:38:26
Speaker
It's got waylay built right in.
00:38:30
Speaker
Garrett, what do you think about the Cantina Bouncers?
00:38:33
Speaker
I love it for my Thrawn.
00:38:35
Speaker
I mean, that's what it's going to go in.
00:38:38
Speaker
It's never something I would play in a non-mono deck because seven is just not what it is.
00:38:45
Speaker
I do feel like these mono cards are going to be like, they're the reason why you went mono, so they better be playable, essentially.
00:38:54
Speaker
I expect all of these to be like fire.
00:38:57
Speaker
I expect you to play all of these.
00:38:58
Speaker
Otherwise, I'm probably not going to play double.
00:39:01
Speaker
I think it's a good card for mono.
00:39:02
Speaker
Like you get a way you get like basically a two card swing because you get a waylay and you get a three five.
00:39:09
Speaker
It takes away the issue that I have with waylay.
00:39:12
Speaker
It's that like, yeah, I did something, but I also don't feel like I gained as much as I'd want to.
00:39:17
Speaker
And it's just like, well, if you get three five dude for it and a waylay for five, like that feels really good.
00:39:23
Speaker
It's like it's getting a three five for two costs, essentially.
00:39:26
Speaker
Like that's solid.
00:39:27
Speaker
Yeah.
00:39:28
Speaker
No, I mean, this thing's going to be great, assuming that we can actually get some good viability.
00:39:35
Speaker
Double conning here.
00:39:37
Speaker
Yeah, I mean, I think between Weylai, Cunning, and Cantina Bouncer, you already have something that's going to really punish mid-range and control decks, I think, in a lot of ways.
00:39:49
Speaker
And it's interesting to me, I'm just imagining a future where I'm playing a Cunning or a double Cunning deck, and I'm just resourcing expensive things because it's too risky to play them.
00:40:01
Speaker
Be like, oh, I have Luke.
00:40:04
Speaker
Like face down.
00:40:05
Speaker
Like he's no better than vanquish really like in this deck.
00:40:09
Speaker
Um, so let's put them down because if I play him, I, it, it, you, you got frustrated when I waylaid like Obi-Wan twice last week.
00:40:18
Speaker
Now imagine this yellow decks.
00:40:20
Speaker
Like I can bounce that forever.
00:40:23
Speaker
Like I have more than I can bounce him.
00:40:27
Speaker
He's still only four power.
00:40:29
Speaker
I think he can still be cunning.
00:40:33
Speaker
Yeah.
00:40:33
Speaker
And I mean, that's what, that's what cunning is an aspect supposed to do.
00:40:36
Speaker
Just kind of like piss people off.
00:40:38
Speaker
I feel like I guess it, and this kind of comes back to it.
00:40:42
Speaker
One of the things that's really just like for me is I just don't think double cunning.
00:40:47
Speaker
I don't, I'm not seeing how double cunning ever beats aggro like that.
00:40:51
Speaker
That's, that's, that's where I'm worried about aggro.
00:40:53
Speaker
It's just like something like double cunning.
00:40:55
Speaker
I just don't know how it has the chops to beat it because like,
00:40:58
Speaker
all your main things are like maybe there's an maybe there's enough gas with cyborg in the end.
00:41:04
Speaker
But like all these like stall tactic things will work well against other stuff, but I just don't like tough.
00:41:11
Speaker
I just don't know.
00:41:13
Speaker
I think I'll be glad that I think most of the player base will be glad that the double cutting deck is weak to something because yes, I mean, it's true.
00:41:22
Speaker
You don't want it to just like take over everything.
00:41:24
Speaker
It's like I have to have a weakness.
00:41:26
Speaker
I'm already like Nostradamus-ing the future that there's going to be like people making like complaint posts of, I lost to this double yellow deck where literally I did nothing for three rounds.
00:41:38
Speaker
Like I played something, it went to my hand.
Final Thoughts and Personal Gaming
00:41:40
Speaker
I played something, it went to my hand.
00:41:41
Speaker
Played something, it went to my hand.
00:41:42
Speaker
And then I lost.
00:41:44
Speaker
That's going to be me.
00:41:46
Speaker
I'm not making the post.
00:41:48
Speaker
I'll be the one playing the cunning deck.
00:41:51
Speaker
We'll see.
00:41:52
Speaker
I'll do that for like nine turns and then I'll lose to like Avenger or something will come down and I can't deal with it.
00:41:57
Speaker
Like that's what will happen.
00:41:58
Speaker
It's running a gas at some point.
00:42:00
Speaker
Yeah.
00:42:02
Speaker
Yeah.
00:42:02
Speaker
This is just like if it hopefully it can't it doesn't run out of gas too because otherwise then it still can't even take up with the big Star Destroyers.
00:42:10
Speaker
Yeah.
00:42:12
Speaker
Yeah.
00:42:14
Speaker
Yeah, and I mean, I guess even in addition to aggro, like these bounce effects are also not as great against ambush and other things that have strong wind plate effects.
00:42:24
Speaker
Like it doesn't feel that great to put boss back in their hand.
00:42:27
Speaker
They're like, OK, he's coming right back out and hitting you again.
00:42:33
Speaker
I'll just keep going.
00:42:35
Speaker
Um, let's see.
00:42:36
Speaker
We already saw the Avenger played it last week.
00:42:38
Speaker
Talked about it.
00:42:39
Speaker
Uh, we'll go on to the late night spoilers from this week, starting with Academy training.
00:42:45
Speaker
It is a two cost single command upgrade, uh, blank, no tax vanilla, uh, gives plus two power plus two HP.
00:42:56
Speaker
And it can be played on any unit.
00:42:57
Speaker
Like there's no like restriction.
00:42:59
Speaker
It's not non-vehicle.
00:43:00
Speaker
Any, anything can get some Academy training.
00:43:03
Speaker
uh, taxter.
00:43:04
Speaker
What do you think about the Academy training?
00:43:06
Speaker
Um, I'm sure that there's probably a place for it.
00:43:10
Speaker
If, if you need to be playing, trying to make guys big and green, like it's a good tool to have.
00:43:15
Speaker
Um, I mean like just a matter of like, is, is, is upgrading things too, too risky or not?
00:43:20
Speaker
If it's not, I think this is fair enough value.
00:43:24
Speaker
Um, trying to think like, I mean, it's a little weird of like,
00:43:31
Speaker
It's like, okay, so when you compare it to like Wing Leader, Wing Leader costs one more, gives you a 2-1 body, and it's a limit on where it can go.
00:43:38
Speaker
But like, this is kind of like Wing Leader, where like, it's the same value, but like, you also would have to like, have a one drop to match the same value as Wing Leader.
00:43:47
Speaker
So like, it kind of feels a little worse than Wing Leader, but it's more versatile.
00:43:53
Speaker
Overall, it's better than Tactical Advantage, I think, because it does the same thing for one resource more, but stays forever.
00:43:58
Speaker
That's a good point.
00:44:01
Speaker
Yeah, no, I really like this.
00:44:04
Speaker
Like a lot of people are really cold on it.
00:44:05
Speaker
I have a feeling, but I feel like this is probably an aggro card more than anything.
00:44:13
Speaker
Probably not getting played in slower stuff.
00:44:16
Speaker
The people are like, oh, what if I make my bright hope plus two plus two?
00:44:19
Speaker
That does sound pretty fun.
00:44:20
Speaker
But like, yeah, to me, like I can taunts bigger.
00:44:24
Speaker
Right.
00:44:24
Speaker
Yeah.
00:44:24
Speaker
For me, I compare it to like surprise strike, which is just plus three power.
00:44:30
Speaker
Just slow surprise strike that gets.
00:44:32
Speaker
But I'm still getting like the two damage this round.
00:44:36
Speaker
Hopefully.
00:44:38
Speaker
I think the number of cards that like can immediately punish you for a plus two plus two is fairly slim.
00:44:46
Speaker
I think you play this in Leia because then you like also like put it on Leia.
00:44:50
Speaker
I mean, you play like I can see you playing this with.
00:44:54
Speaker
I don't think Sabine's necessarily going green as a second aspect, but Leia will.
00:45:02
Speaker
You play this on... Putting this on Tarkin or Krennic in the command Krennic type thing, making him just a bit bigger.
00:45:12
Speaker
I'd entrench my Krennic if I needed to sometimes too, but...
00:45:16
Speaker
Yeah, I mean, yeah, I like it in Krennic because it makes your thing bigger and it makes it more likely to survive while being damaged.
00:45:24
Speaker
Yeah.
00:45:24
Speaker
Which is double bonus.
00:45:25
Speaker
So like, I think that's the thing with upgrades in this deck, at least a lot of the single ones.
00:45:30
Speaker
Like if you can play it on something and then attack that thing into a unit and defeat it and live.
00:45:36
Speaker
You don't lose card advantage at that point if they trade a second unit at some point into you and you lost two cards for two cards.
00:45:44
Speaker
But if they can't do that, you've got this big monster unit that, well, and Krennic even has three more power to just start whacking base with.
00:45:54
Speaker
I mean, the upgrades do feel better on leaders because they are just harder to... You can't just kill the leader other than
00:46:04
Speaker
Like you have to you have to hit them to get them low enough to like nuke them with damage or a takedown.
00:46:11
Speaker
So like, you know, putting a big upgrade on them makes it harder to get them in a takedown range.
00:46:15
Speaker
Yeah, mostly you're afraid of waylay or like bouncer and you're afraid of like vanquish.
00:46:23
Speaker
And I think most of the other stuff, you're fine.
00:46:26
Speaker
You just play around or, you know, it helps you get around it.
00:46:29
Speaker
You get around takedown.
00:46:30
Speaker
Open fire doesn't it kind of gets around that.
00:46:33
Speaker
Open fire is not going to kill you extra hard or punish you for it.
00:46:36
Speaker
It's mostly like maybe if I'm playing yellow, like I resource these because like, you know, waylay is kind of.
00:46:43
Speaker
I wouldn't say I wouldn't say upgrade.
00:46:44
Speaker
Hate is super common either right now.
00:46:46
Speaker
Like, I feel like honestly.
00:46:50
Speaker
Bamboozle might be the one that you might see more played than anything at this point.
00:46:54
Speaker
I mean, if people are playing Yellow Hero.
00:46:57
Speaker
Or I guess you could play it in Boba and just discard the card for it.
00:47:00
Speaker
It just feels bad to play this and then get waylaid.
00:47:03
Speaker
Yep.
00:47:05
Speaker
Yeah.
00:47:06
Speaker
I don't know.
00:47:06
Speaker
I would put this on.
00:47:08
Speaker
I mean, you could even, we were talking about stuff to stop aggro that's drop a sentinel down cheap, Sentinel put Academy training down.
00:47:14
Speaker
I'm like, yeah, I mean, I think it's, it's a solid card.
00:47:19
Speaker
I like it for two.
00:47:20
Speaker
It's is on curve with something with a two, you know?
00:47:24
Speaker
So it just makes something else.
00:47:26
Speaker
It's so make something better.
00:47:27
Speaker
Yep.
00:47:30
Speaker
Agree.
00:47:31
Speaker
Um,
00:47:31
Speaker
You have a 5-5 Battlefield Marine.
00:47:35
Speaker
That's fun.
00:47:36
Speaker
Seems fine.
00:47:37
Speaker
I'm going to curve in Wing Leader on the Battlefield Marine and then double Academy training.
00:47:43
Speaker
Super trained.
00:47:45
Speaker
Be like, this guy's a 9-9 hitting you.
00:47:46
Speaker
That's what he's got the harpoon for.
00:47:49
Speaker
So he's got the harpoon for.
00:47:50
Speaker
So trained.
00:47:52
Speaker
Moving on, the next card, the Ruthless Raider.
00:47:55
Speaker
This card was, I think, a lot more exciting for a lot of people, at least at least two spoilers from late night.
00:48:01
Speaker
It's a six cost space unit in aggression villainy.
00:48:04
Speaker
It has four power, six HP.
00:48:06
Speaker
It's an Imperial vehicle, capital ship, and it has when played and when defeated, you can deal two damage to an enemy base and two damage to an enemy unit.
00:48:16
Speaker
Garrett, what do you think about the Ruthless Raider?
00:48:21
Speaker
At six, it's pretty expensive, but I also kind of like it because I like things that trigger on when played and defeated.
00:48:31
Speaker
So I think it's, I mean, that's four damage and four damage to a unit, you know, if it's the same unit, but it can kind of clear some weenies out.
00:48:42
Speaker
Like, I think it's a solid card for, I mean, being in space helps it, I think, a lot.
00:48:48
Speaker
um yeah i don't think you play those stats on the ground no um but like being space i think you can well sure like you can you can make you can make use of it yeah what do you think tack i mean it's so so the big things to compare it to are fetch fire spray and gladiator
00:49:13
Speaker
And it's better than Fet's Fire Spray if you're not playing it in Boba, but I don't see why you would ever play Fet's Fire Spray outside of Boba or Limited, because it's not great otherwise.
00:49:23
Speaker
But I don't know.
00:49:26
Speaker
I just don't know where it goes.
00:49:27
Speaker
I don't know what deck you put this in.
00:49:29
Speaker
It's too big for an aggro deck, which wants the base damage to finish off.
00:49:34
Speaker
Like, it is kind of reach, but I mean, like, I guess you could play it on turn six for an aggro deck.
00:49:39
Speaker
But, like,
00:49:42
Speaker
Sabine can win before that.
00:49:44
Speaker
Leia can win before that.
00:49:48
Speaker
That might still be too late for it.
00:49:50
Speaker
So that's why it's just like, it feels weird because it's just too expensive to me to feel like an aggro deck.
00:49:55
Speaker
And I don't know where in the mid-range deck you're really getting good value out of this.
00:49:58
Speaker
If I'm playing against aggro, I would much rather have the Gladiator because it's at least going to hopefully block multiple ship attacks.
00:50:07
Speaker
Yeah.
00:50:08
Speaker
and catch you back up.
00:50:09
Speaker
This doesn't, like, the two damage might kill something, it might not.
00:50:12
Speaker
It's not really catching you up.
00:50:14
Speaker
So I don't really know what you get out of the card.
00:50:18
Speaker
I mean, you can say, uh, this card's good with Energy Conversion Lab and Piet, which, I mean, every six drop plus is good with.
00:50:25
Speaker
But everyone says, like, Energy Conversion Lab, and I'm like, everything's good with it.
00:50:28
Speaker
It's once per game, and everything's good with it, yeah.
00:50:30
Speaker
So, it's like,
00:50:33
Speaker
It's a good play, and that might be the play that you're saving it for that swings you back in the game.
00:50:38
Speaker
But I just don't know if it's ever better than the Gladiator Stardustriar to me for the most part, unless you're just not playing green, I guess.
00:50:51
Speaker
Yeah, I mean, that's a red green counterplay.
00:50:53
Speaker
Like if you're in red green and you have your, you know, energy conversion lab and your opponent plays the FETS fire spray or they play the gladiator Star Destroyer, you can defeat the FETS fire spray or Star Destroyer while still being alive.
00:51:07
Speaker
Yeah, which is.
00:51:08
Speaker
I can see you putting this in.
00:51:10
Speaker
I can see you putting this in red boba because it's just like another it's another six drop in space.
00:51:16
Speaker
It's like your top end.
00:51:17
Speaker
It's like you're topping out.
00:51:18
Speaker
Like if you do green boba, you're playing, you're playing fire spray and gladiator playing red boba.
00:51:24
Speaker
You can now play fire spade and radar and that's probably fine.
00:51:28
Speaker
Um, I feel like anything that doesn't have P or a way to give it ambush, it just feels slow.
00:51:33
Speaker
And that was kind of like when it came out, I'm like, oh, this feels like the, the lesser playable card.
00:51:38
Speaker
Like I see Academy training fitting in all sorts of different decks and doing that.
00:51:42
Speaker
Yeah.
00:51:43
Speaker
I mean, that's, you're also going to say that about,
00:51:44
Speaker
anything cheaper is going to be a more dex period so yeah it's like if i'm not ambushing it it feels real bad if my opponent's like i got fets fire spray and then you're like yeah you got came in ready here's my ruthless raider and i'll do two damage to your fire spray and i'm exhausted and they're like well i'll hit you to six to the face you're like well next round next round i will get you
00:52:06
Speaker
For me, a lot of times at six costs, I'm looking for things that are going to help me catch up if I happen to fall behind.
00:52:12
Speaker
And I want my six drops to help me catch up in some way, which means some kind of effect in that round and the effect of two damage to the base.
00:52:21
Speaker
Probably not what I need for catch up and two damage to a single unit might kill something.
00:52:28
Speaker
So it might be able to, but...
00:52:32
Speaker
To me, it's a similar situation to Black 1 where it's like something's going to use it well, but I don't know what that is yet.
00:52:39
Speaker
Yeah, that's kind of where it's just like I just don't know which status is.
00:52:43
Speaker
And honestly, it depends on how much value you can get from when defeated.
00:52:46
Speaker
Like, you know, 4 damage to base is good, and we haven't seen a ton of direct damage to base without attacking it cards, so I think it's just Fighters for Freedom.
00:52:57
Speaker
Is that the only other one?
00:52:59
Speaker
Yeah, I think ruthless Raider like in future like things that would make it interesting if you had some way to like blow it up on command.
00:53:07
Speaker
So like I could like play it then attack with it and blow it up for maybe some other benefit to like really push damage.
00:53:14
Speaker
Then maybe that's interesting.
00:53:16
Speaker
Yeah.
00:53:17
Speaker
Yeah.
00:53:20
Speaker
Yeah.
00:53:22
Speaker
Moving on to a very exciting aggro card, the red three unstoppable.
00:53:30
Speaker
It's a three.
00:53:32
Speaker
It is.
00:53:33
Speaker
It's unstoppable.
00:53:34
Speaker
It's right there in the name.
00:53:36
Speaker
Three cost space unit, aggression, heroism, two power, three HP.
00:53:42
Speaker
It's a rebel vehicle fighter.
00:53:44
Speaker
It has raid one and an ongoing effect that each other friendly heroism unit also gains raid.
00:53:51
Speaker
one uh nick tell me about this aggro card that you like uh yeah i don't like this card this is scary i mean the the only bad thing to me about this card is that it's unique and you can't have three of them because that would be super busted um but sure yeah i mean it's an a-wing for one more that makes literally everything that you're probably playing better so it's a straight up better than dodonna right
00:54:19
Speaker
Yeah, I mean, Hell Thunder Donuts is sometimes relevant, but it kind of like, it's in space, so that's harder to, like, it's in space when you're already trying to play, like, possibly other stuff in space in that color that are going to be just as problematic, so it's just like,
00:54:36
Speaker
I don't know.
00:54:37
Speaker
Yeah, I definitely would.
00:54:38
Speaker
If I was playing to down, I'd pull that out because it's cheaper.
00:54:41
Speaker
And so like this, this is kind of doing more of the viewers thing where it's like comes out on three instead of four and doesn't give you the health.
00:54:47
Speaker
But aggro doesn't super care about that.
00:54:51
Speaker
So.
00:54:52
Speaker
Right.
00:54:53
Speaker
I also like that it might make your opponent hesitate if they have like an open fire or like a takedown or even an interceptor and you have like an a wing out and
00:55:05
Speaker
do they use it on the A-Wing?
00:55:07
Speaker
And then have you play Red 3 and then not have an answer?
00:55:10
Speaker
Because then you're not attacking.
00:55:11
Speaker
I mean, assuming like the way the turn orders and stuff go out, if you have to, you kill the thing that can attack first and then they have to play something in two, like then it doesn't get value for a few rounds.
00:55:20
Speaker
Like if you take out, if you play A-Wing into Red 3 and they take down your A-Wing, it's not, that's actually not a terrible feeling for the person on the other side because...
00:55:33
Speaker
I love R3.
00:55:34
Speaker
I think it's awesome.
00:55:37
Speaker
It's strong.
00:55:39
Speaker
It works in every red hero deck.
00:55:41
Speaker
There's no reason not to put this in any red hero deck that you're playing.
00:55:45
Speaker
Especially because it's not saying red cards like the other stuff we've seen.
00:55:50
Speaker
With red, it's been more.
00:55:52
Speaker
If you're in this color, stay with this color.
00:55:55
Speaker
Your R2 gets raided.
00:55:56
Speaker
Your 3PO gets raided.
00:55:59
Speaker
Everybody gets a raid.
00:56:01
Speaker
Everybody gets right.
00:56:02
Speaker
Interestingly enough, though, like the partisan insurgent is a rebel, but it's only mono aggression.
00:56:09
Speaker
And at least what Tyler was saying, like the partisan, like the saw group, like they thought it was pretty thematic and cool to put the it put it in mono aggression.
00:56:17
Speaker
And they won't get the benefit of Red 3.
00:56:20
Speaker
So it'd be interesting to see how much stuff we have.
00:56:22
Speaker
And maybe that's enough to not play stuff like that as much either.
00:56:25
Speaker
Along those lines.
00:56:26
Speaker
But yeah.
00:56:27
Speaker
Or at least it's a choice.
00:56:28
Speaker
Like, do I play all hero stuff?
00:56:30
Speaker
Or do I want to go all rebel stuff?
00:56:32
Speaker
Because these other mono aggro cards are also rebels.
00:56:38
Speaker
But they just don't get... It also kind of plays into whether you're going like...
00:56:43
Speaker
This is kind of the opposite of Fighters for Freedom.
00:56:45
Speaker
Are you caring more about the hero symbol than the red symbol?
00:56:50
Speaker
Yeah.
00:56:51
Speaker
In your deck.
00:56:53
Speaker
I like it.
00:56:54
Speaker
It is stoppable, though.
00:56:56
Speaker
Red 3 is more playable in a two-aspect deck.
00:57:01
Speaker
Or at least feels better there.
00:57:03
Speaker
Yeah.
00:57:04
Speaker
More flexible.
00:57:05
Speaker
I just think it is stoppable.
00:57:07
Speaker
You just think it's stoppable?
00:57:09
Speaker
Vader agrees.
00:57:10
Speaker
I've seen the movie.
00:57:12
Speaker
He stopped it.
00:57:14
Speaker
It's an odd subtitle.
00:57:17
Speaker
It's unstoppable.
00:57:19
Speaker
Actually, okay, let's think about this.
00:57:22
Speaker
He shoots it down, but it's still probably floating out in space, even now.
00:57:27
Speaker
You know, a long time ago that happened, but it probably didn't run into a sun yet, so it's still probably floating, so it's technically unstoppable.
00:57:34
Speaker
I guess that's technically correct.
00:57:36
Speaker
Yeah, energy can't be destroyed.
00:57:38
Speaker
That's just physics, right?
00:57:40
Speaker
Yeah, everything's destroyed.
00:57:43
Speaker
Let's talk about the improbability of hyperspace in Star Wars.
00:57:47
Speaker
Now, my first part of my thesis.
00:57:50
Speaker
Pass.
00:57:54
Speaker
Last card that we have to talk about.
00:57:55
Speaker
This one was, spoiler today, from... I don't remember which.
00:58:00
Speaker
It was the Spanish group?
00:58:03
Speaker
Like, the Spanish... Yeah.
00:58:04
Speaker
Valley del Jedi.
00:58:06
Speaker
Yeah.
00:58:07
Speaker
Yeah, that one.
00:58:09
Speaker
Their whole video was subtitled and I watched it.
00:58:12
Speaker
It was pretty cool the way they hyped it up and revealed it.
00:58:14
Speaker
But it is the Scout Bike Pursuer.
00:58:17
Speaker
It is a ground unit to cost in vigilance, villainy, one power, four HP, Imperial Trooper, which is straight up has grit.
00:58:31
Speaker
Garrett.
00:58:32
Speaker
It's not a vehicle.
00:58:34
Speaker
Because it's the trooper.
00:58:36
Speaker
It's not the bike.
00:58:39
Speaker
So if we got a bike unit, it would just be a picture of the bike with nobody in it?
00:58:44
Speaker
Yeah.
00:58:47
Speaker
Krennic gets richer.
00:58:50
Speaker
Krennic loves this card.
00:58:52
Speaker
Oh, yeah.
00:58:55
Speaker
Any deck you're running with, Death Trooper likes this card.
00:58:59
Speaker
Death Trooper makes it
00:59:02
Speaker
A four.
00:59:03
Speaker
Four attack with Krennic, if you've invented it.
00:59:06
Speaker
Seems legit.
00:59:08
Speaker
That gives you a six damage reach on round two.
00:59:13
Speaker
I like the Pursuer a lot.
00:59:18
Speaker
I like the art.
00:59:20
Speaker
I really like the art on this one too.
00:59:23
Speaker
The background is like the way it does like the blur effect really makes it pop.
00:59:29
Speaker
That's a good one.
00:59:31
Speaker
Not quite as sexy as the Short Trooper but it's up there for me.
00:59:37
Speaker
It does remind me of one of my favorite scenes from I think it was a season one or two of Mandalorian where
00:59:43
Speaker
I think it was like the Navarro like Imperial base.
00:59:46
Speaker
And like they have that epic like chase them down with the scout bike troopers.
00:59:50
Speaker
And they all like come flying out of the hangar.
00:59:53
Speaker
And like three of them just like run into stuff and blow up before they even make it.
00:59:58
Speaker
It's classic.
00:59:59
Speaker
You should go YouTube that if you haven't and watch it.
01:00:01
Speaker
That's what I think.
01:00:02
Speaker
Except this guy is more just beefy.
01:00:04
Speaker
He's going to beat stuff up.
01:00:06
Speaker
But I guess he gets more fragile as he does it.
01:00:08
Speaker
So.
01:00:09
Speaker
Theme.
01:00:12
Speaker
I mean, you throw any kind of health buffs on him, too.
01:00:15
Speaker
I don't feel bad throwing an extra thing on him, too.
01:00:19
Speaker
Yeah, I mean, talk about academy training if you're running a real green.
01:00:22
Speaker
3-6 with grit?
01:00:24
Speaker
That's pretty gross.
01:00:31
Speaker
Yeah, you could really punish your opponent.
01:00:33
Speaker
Grit is such a powerful keyword in how it can get out of hand.
01:00:36
Speaker
And we kind of saw that.
01:00:38
Speaker
I think people underrate Chewie.
01:00:40
Speaker
And that was the joke, at least from the stream, that they talked about.
01:00:43
Speaker
Tyler was like, I feel like a lot of people are underrating Chewie, the leader, at this point.
01:00:48
Speaker
Mm-hmm.
01:00:48
Speaker
And like we saw like I don't know how many people actually watched our stream from last week, but there was like literally a match where I was playing Krennic into Tack playing Chewie.
01:00:58
Speaker
And like once he flipped out Chewie, like I literally had like Krennic and like two other decently sized units on the ground.
01:01:04
Speaker
And I just was stopped when I couldn't attack.
01:01:06
Speaker
Because like if I attacked into Chewie, who's a 2-9, I couldn't kill him, but I just made him hit me way harder back.
01:01:14
Speaker
I mean, that's not going to happen every time.
01:01:17
Speaker
There's multiple downsides.
01:01:19
Speaker
That's not going to happen every time, but if it does, it can be extremely oppressive because it's like, oh, this is a big Guardian guy that I can't remove with any of other removal stuff easily.
01:01:34
Speaker
You can put a bunch of beef sticks on him, make him even stronger.
01:01:40
Speaker
I mean, the big thing other people don't like about him, too, is that he comes out at seven, and it is just kind of like, well, you just might not live long enough.
01:01:51
Speaker
And he doesn't have... If you're going blue-green with him, which at least gives you resupplies, you still don't really have good space units.
01:02:01
Speaker
You have arcs.
01:02:03
Speaker
And maybe system patrol craft now.
01:02:06
Speaker
True.
01:02:06
Speaker
True.
01:02:09
Speaker
Bright hopes.
01:02:10
Speaker
Bright hope.
01:02:11
Speaker
You do a bright hope.
01:02:12
Speaker
That's true.
01:02:13
Speaker
You were hitting me with home.
01:02:14
Speaker
Yeah.
01:02:14
Speaker
I mean, home one is your finisher for sure.
01:02:18
Speaker
That's that does feel good.
01:02:20
Speaker
But yeah, my main point, at least the tying it back to Chewie, it was just grit as a keyword, how it gets crazy really fast.
01:02:27
Speaker
Or it can be like usually game changing really fast.
01:02:30
Speaker
Like the math doesn't line up.
01:02:32
Speaker
Like even with scout bike pursuer, having a four attack attack,
01:02:36
Speaker
ready to go round two and then like you said you go into friggin like academy training or something and you make six attack like your krennic might not be an aggro deck but like you could literally get into a position where you're like i'm beating you down harder than like i'm beating you down at aggro speeds because of grit yeah and he yeah that is grit only in vigilance right now
01:03:06
Speaker
Have we seen any of it outside of that?
01:03:09
Speaker
I don't think so.
01:03:10
Speaker
Yeah, just Chewie and him.
01:03:14
Speaker
Raid seems to be mostly aggression.
01:03:17
Speaker
I know we have the one fighter.
01:03:22
Speaker
And the Rugged Survivor.
01:03:23
Speaker
All three Grit unit things are blue.
01:03:27
Speaker
The Scout Bike Pursuer, the Rugged Survivors, and the Chewbacca Leader.
01:03:30
Speaker
That's it.
01:03:31
Speaker
That's the only Grit we have.
01:03:33
Speaker
I mean, this thing's also common.
01:03:35
Speaker
That's nice, too.
01:03:39
Speaker
Yeah, I like him.
01:03:40
Speaker
I think he's a little bit awkward in decks that don't have, like, a way to either get him pumped with, like, self-damage for some reason or stuff like Krennic.
01:03:55
Speaker
Like...
01:03:57
Speaker
I don't know if you're running against a regular 2-3.
01:03:59
Speaker
He still just trades with it eventually.
01:04:03
Speaker
Or they can just ignore your 1-4, and then you're only doing one, and then you attacking them first, and they can be like, all right, now I'm going to trade.
01:04:11
Speaker
I think the grit on him, he's way better with something that can actually push his grit to be proactively used.
01:04:20
Speaker
Mm-hmm.
01:04:21
Speaker
Yep.
01:04:22
Speaker
I think it would be the point.
01:04:23
Speaker
Like, I don't know.
01:04:24
Speaker
I'm probably still taking it in draft, but like, I'm just saying it might not be as cool in draft.
01:04:29
Speaker
If you don't have like some death troopers, Hey, Krennic's a common leader.
01:04:33
Speaker
Yeah.
01:04:34
Speaker
Like some of those things.
01:04:35
Speaker
And I imagine we're going to get more things like that care about damage on units because of Krennic, but maybe, you know, if there's other stuff that you can kind of combo it to like put damage on units or cares about damage on your units, even better.
01:04:51
Speaker
Anywho, that's all the spoilers that we have.
01:04:54
Speaker
We're coming up on, we're a little over an hour now.
01:04:56
Speaker
So final thoughts, anything coming up?
01:05:01
Speaker
Anything I forgot to mention that you guys want to bring up?
01:05:06
Speaker
I started playing Jena Survivor.
01:05:09
Speaker
How nice.
01:05:10
Speaker
That's very good.
01:05:11
Speaker
So far.
01:05:13
Speaker
I've just been playing stupid amounts of Baldur's Gate 3.
01:05:17
Speaker
I'm very deep on that game now.
01:05:20
Speaker
Took a while to get into it, but once you're into it, you're way into it.
01:05:25
Speaker
That's what I've heard.
01:05:26
Speaker
I agree with that.
01:05:28
Speaker
I'm like 60 hours in.
01:05:29
Speaker
I don't even think I'm halfway done with it.
01:05:32
Speaker
Jeez.
01:05:34
Speaker
And I'm already thinking about I want to start a new playthrough after I'm done.
01:05:37
Speaker
That kind of stuff.
01:05:38
Speaker
Yeah.
01:05:41
Speaker
All right.
01:05:41
Speaker
Well, on that note, thanks for tuning in, and we will see you guys next time.
