Played my starter deck with two boosters of changes against a guy who has bought three boxes. Not fun.

You say that, but I beat a guy with a starter plus deck who had bought six boxes. Kylo + Stormtroopers does a lot of burst damage.

There is little more satisfying in this game than Squad Tactics -> Nowhere to Run -> Intimidate -> Nuking the ever loving poo poo out of some top tier character.

Ace in the Hole + Crime Lord. Googled and think I know but want to make sure I know for sure:

You don't need to have a yellow character in play to use Ace in the Hole on Crime Lord but you do need the 5 resources if you roll the special.

Looks right to me.

Guts and Bolts: It might sound like overkill but I would put in both intimidates. Decks that really use shields (as opposed to incidentally using them when they happen to show up) are just murder to get through, and when the stars and dice align for a huge Vader lightsaber swing you gotta make it count. It also helps you tear through Hunker Down, a pain in the rear end card if ever I've seen one.

Intimidate is a fantastic card and I'd run 2 in any blue villain deck.

Anyone have an opinion on this deck? It did pretty well before in a less refined fashion.

It's limited by what I own, so hence only one Force Throw.


CHARACTER
¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯
3x First Order Stormtrooper (Awakenings #2)
1x Nightsister (Awakenings #12)

BATTLEFIELD
¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯
Imperial Armory, Death Star (Awakenings #169)

UPGRADE
¯¯¯¯¯¯¯
2x F-11D Rifle (Awakenings #8)
2x Sith Holocron (Awakenings #16)
2x IQA-11 Blaster Rifle (Awakenings #55)
2x Promotion (Awakenings #56)
1x Force Throw (Awakenings #57)
2x Mind Probe (Awakenings #60)
2x Comlink (Awakenings #61)
2x Datapad (Awakenings #62)
2x Holdout Blaster (Awakenings #63)

SUPPORT
¯¯¯¯¯¯¯
2x Power of the Dark Side (Awakenings #89)
2x Supporting Fire (Awakenings #144)

EVENT
¯¯¯¯¯
1x Endless Ranks (Awakenings #70)
2x Tactical Mastery (Awakenings #74)
2x Intimidate (Awakenings #84)
2x Nowhere to Run (Awakenings #91)
2x Squad Tactics (Awakenings #143)

Basically it's just simple, unrefined action economy and burst damage.

I'm not sure I have enough blue abilities to justify the Holocrons, though?

If I get attacked by three identical mooks and a blue wizard elf, I kill the elf first. So that makes me concerned about heavily investing her with powers. Maybe you cut out the powers and replace them with useful non "spot-blue" stuff, like I feel your hatred or the like? I dunno, just a thought.

Also, I don't know about if I'll have space for them, but the Holocrons would allow me to put the blue powers on red characters.

Is there a reason you're running one nightsister instead of two?

A) I have 1. Edit: I have 2 apparently
B) I dunno, hadn't thought about it. Why 2 vs 1?
C) The troopers roll more blanks and more consistent range damage. It was originally concieved as a burst deck.

But you have my attention. Sell me on the second one.

I'd probably swap the battlefield for Emperor's Throne Room in that case.

Ultiville posted:

The ability is good but also a lot of the good blue stuff requires you to have a blue character alive to work. It makes it way less clear that the opponent should just shoot the nightsister.

Mind Probe and Force Throw are the only blue-required items, and they can be holocroned onto a Stormtrooper.

It's still a decent idea, though.

thocan posted:

Any spot-blue events in your deck? I admittedly didn't look back to see if you posted a full deck list, but that could be another reason to use a second Nightsister.

Not as it currently stands. A few spot Red, but 2/2 doesnt' really hurt that.


Edit:
Anyone want to trade/sell to me to fill in the gaps in my Uncommons? Looking for 1 each of these:

Force Strike
Emperor’s Favor
Ace in the Hole
Fight Dirty
Underworld Connections
Resistance HQ
Shoot First
Play the Odds
Second Chance
Dug In

You really, really don't need Detonators to run an effective Jangeers deck. If you have the Jetpacks, DH-17s, Holdouts, OTH, etc. then you're golden. Put all your guns in the deck and turn dudes sideways.

I would like two Jetpacks. I know I have an extra Phasma and Padawan, I'll check later for sure.

I'm also looking for two Force Chokes, if anyone has them. I don't have a ton of Destiny stuff extra, but I do have tons of Magic cards.

Ok, Phasma and Padawan at CSI sale price are 17.99 and 3.99 and Jetpack is 15.99, so I could do both Jetpacks if you can sweeten it up a little, or I could do 1 jetpack and something else.

(I'm just using CSI's singles sale prices as a consistent benchmark FYI)

I got one Rey and one Kylo Ren starting set. I've never seen a booster so I haven't had any of the solid cards from Awakenings to begin with I can literally only run a sub 30 cards villain or hero deck after months still. Cause of FFGs weird choices I would literally be missing out on any kind of card from Awakenings which would handicap me going forward, assuming the next expansion doesn't have the same problem where I sit on a pre-order that never gets fulfilled cause of short supply

I'm thinking of getting out, if I do would you like to buy my collection for what I paid, plus maybe a little to reflect all the trade work I did? (3 boxes, have to check receipts)
