FFG is a skeleton crew at this point and I have zero faith that they can handle any CCG, much less an IP as big as Star Wars. Plus Lorcana already ate their lunch.

Lorcana is a mass market product based on a wide range of Disney IP. I’m not even sure Disney would consider them competitors

Psst: Disney also owns Star Wars


But FFG absolutely sees Ravensburger as a competitor. One of if not the largest non-asomdee competitor at that.


I actually like most of the art and the general style they're doing, but the card layout is awful. I will probably proxy some decks and try it out, we had fun with Destiny that way.

Yes why i said i doubt disney sees it as a competitor

I think you're missing the point: I'm not talking about Disney seeing the games as competitors, they win either way. But FFG definitely sees it as a competitor in the same space. Lorcana blew up enough to fill any gap in the CCG market in a way that will make it hard for Unlimited to get ground. FFG want it to be mass market too, they were pushing Destiny in Target and B&N as well.

i feel you. i was just unaware of their goals with unlimited- it seems that there are lots of games doing pretty well without target and i thought it was another one of those
