It's a new freemium game from NetMarbu, available on Android and iOS. It's a MOBA style game featuring the Star Wars cast. You can play 1v1 or 2v2, and if you're in a guild, you get to be matched with a guildmate against two random people, so it's pretty great. Curent SA Guilds: OldGoonpublic LLJK These are inactive-ish?: thatsnogoon (full) SArlaccPits The tutorial covers how to play fairly well, so I'll just give you the quick rundown on the other stuff. A lot of people are missing that there are missions you can do -- check the top right corner of the screen for three tiny icons, the middle one takes you to the list where you see what you need to do and also turn in missions for rewards. It's really important that you do the special ones ASAP because you get to pick any character in the game, and right now, Cassian Andor is incredibly OP. He outranges turrets. Don't spend Crystals on packs, buy credits instead. You can buy cards in the store, and it's pretty cheap to take commons to level 5/6 (considering that you start with 1400 crystals, and 1k buys you 50k credits).

Malgrin posted:If you aren't playing Cassian, or ******* if you are in game, you are doing it wrong. I'm probably winning 95% of my 1v1 games with him, and doing quite well at 2v2. I just reached 3* Tier 4. Basically, shoot, step back, shoot, etc. Also, unlocked Gigoran Rebel, and at level 2, he is the best unit I've ever seen. You plus it kills an opponent from about 3/4 in a stun grenade...it does single target heavy damage. Short spool up to start dealing damage, but immediately switches targets until it has to move. Has long range, and if you throw a few melee in front, will kill a turret super fast, or an ATST. 681 hp, so survives a bombing run. Range is 8.5, sniper has 11, not quite out of range of enemy turrets. Malgrin posted:Stun grenades are amazing with anyone. If you're ranged like cassian, if they get too close, drop a stun grenade, walk away, keep shooting. If you're melee like Luke or Vader (Luke's actually really, really good if you figure out how to use him), charge in, drop a stun grenade, use your special.

This game is goofy and fun. I like being able to play 2v2 with other goons.

I tested it out and Luke is the only legendary that reflects blaster bolts when standing still.. which is kind of messed up

I didn't find a goon guild under the name in the op (itsnogoon) but there was one named thatsnogoon, is that the right one? I've been having a lot of success with Leia just hanging back, dropping turrets, and snowballing my way to victory via having more troops than the other team at all times. Other teammate usually picks up on me playing defense pretty quick and pushes in on whatever lane's the weakest, and we win without much trouble. But I imagine that's not viable once I get to the point where people have actual good decks set up. What are people's thoughts on the various leaders? I honestly have no idea who's good and who isn't, because 90% of what I run into is Luke/Leia/Han/Boba/Inquisitor and not much else. Saw a Lando once.

But yes, melee characters outside of Luke seems very difficult to play. I just got Old Ben so I'm going to try the Luke zerg strategy whenever my goon teammates pick Andor.

I just applied to what I think is the guild as 'cithen'. Also, I'm having trouble completing the first Basic mission, 'Enter the Galactic Battle I', It says to play in a 1v1 or 2v2 match one time, which I have certainly done, but it isn't updating as completed. Anyone know whats going on with it?

You don't get credit in training missions, has to be pvp. Also, you only get credit for doing a mission if it's open while you do the quest (mostly). If it asks you to complete missions, open cards, level up a card, etc., you have to do those things after you've gotten the mission. Exceptions include situations where it's like reach level 4.

Thanks for making the thread, Malgrin. Game had been fun so far. Cassien has been helping me put up a nice win streak, especially after I got a stun grenade on the rebels side. Working towards Lando right now since his energy refresh seems like it would be useful. I did run into a guy who was somehow able to drop units across the map and in my area before taking out my turrets. This is when he was way back running around his spawn area. I'm not sure if it was just a bug or an exploit. I should have grabbed a screenshot of his name, but didn't think about it until it was too late.

Because if even one is down, you can place units pretty far up on that side, and sometimes the units will wander to the middle lane. Or was it a drop pod? I have one of those and it is super cool. You drop it anywhere you want and a little guy comes out and attacks stuff. It's great for finishing off a tower that's almost dead. In case people missed it, you can press and hold the unit you want to spawn and drag it somewhere else on the map.

Applied to ThatsNoGoon as Theswarms. Throwing AT-STs at people is fun, but it seems less effective than the old drop the rocket trooper in the lane the opponent doesn't go to and laugh as rockets destroy everything without people noticing. People are looking at the minimap and stopping this now though

It was really strange.

Inkel posted:Both my towers were up and he was dropping tanks and poo poo behind my towers. It was really strange. I think there's a spot right at the very back of the map where you can sometimes get stuff to spawn, right behind the generator. I've seen a few players trying to sneak into my base and do it but they're usually pretty bad and end up dying to all the hazards and dudes we've got in the area before they manage it. I don't know if it lets them bypass turrets or if it's just the surprise of suddenly a bunch of dudes in your base at once or what, but sometimes it does work. People are generally used to enemies needing to walk all the way down lanes to get to their base so if you can do kind of a forward-spawned assault while they're dealing with another lane it can work well if they're not paying attention to your hero positioning.

Jyn as my main 2v2 girl has been working out very well. On her own shes ok, but in 2v2 if she can concentrate on sniping kills and towers while her teammate distracts, shes a beast. I think boozie and i haven't lost together yet running her.

So apparently there's a bug that doesn't let you complete the first mission. So I'm pretty much stuck until they fix that.

Theswarms posted:Throwing AT-STs at people is fun, but it seems less effective than the old drop the rocket trooper in the lane the opponent doesn't go to and laugh as rockets destroy everything without people noticing. Prodding multiple lanes is a legitimate strategy you should employ when you can afford the resources. If you load up a single lane too much then AoE will just wreck your murderball. Sometimes you can goad out the strafe and then immediately drop your zerg army. Kelp Plankton posted:I think there's a spot right at the very back of the map where you can sometimes get stuff to spawn, right behind the generator This. I believe the tower spawn protection is shaped like a circle, so there might be tiny areas the towers don't completely cover. I haven't bothered testing any of this. Chilichimp posted:Anyone else this this gameplay is really poo poo and bad? Yes. It's not perfect, but goddamn I'm still having fun. Honestly, I can't remember the last time I lost a game. Every match is just a streamroll. I greatly prefer 2v2 over 1v1. It's much more exciting and entertaining for me. The biggest I've had is struggling to make my character run. Sometimes he just walks even though I am double-tapping like a madman. Why would you ever want to walk anywhere anyway? I think it'd be much better if they just removed it. Yuur character should always try to run at full speed. And yeah, I know not all characters can run.
