Alliance dispatcher is nuts, but only really good in the Luke deck it seems. The ability to shield him is critical. And using it to play Echo Base Defender + shield can keep it alive into turn 3 (or more), where you can do something like a Bright Hope + shield or Kanan + shield.

He said he would take out Takedown and put another U-Wing Reinforcement in. For sideboard, he’d keep the Restocks and the Home One, and replace the rest with 3 Vanquish and 3 Vigilance. Not sure about the last card, maybe another Restock for the control matches.

Force Choke is cheap for a reason: It only targets non-vehicle units, it allows for opponent card draw, and it doesn't instantly defeat a unit. Force Choke Churrit and not only does he live, but he can heal or put on a Jedi Lightsaber to carry him over to the next round. Takedown Churrit and he's immediately defeated.

Restock in side boards is such a bad plan. If you expect a control meta you NEED it main. Without it being main you will lose the mirror that has it main 1-0. You will not be able to complete game 2 let alone game 3.

Reading the comprehensive rules, they say that an action that triggers other actions needs to fully resolve before resolving any triggers. How was he able to look at the top two before drawing with inferno four? Is there a window after paying for an action?
@Narch225 ай бұрын
Great question! Part of the cost of the trigger is sacrificing the unit. So the cost is paid, trigger the inferno four, resolve the inferno four, resolve the Palp trigger.
@misterjackpots5 ай бұрын
@@Narch22nah that’s not correct, you have to fully resolve the Palp action before the Inferno 4 trigger resolves
@jonathanrfisher5 ай бұрын
Yeah, I’m asking if there is a window for the trigger to resolve after paying the cost. The rules say to fully resolve abilities before resolving anything that triggers while resolving the ability, but resolving the ability is the last step in 5 steps when performing an action, so maybe the trigger resolves after the payment step? I just haven’t found clarity in the rules.
@Narch225 ай бұрын
@@jonathanrfisher An action ability is an ability indicated by the bolded word “Action.” Most action abilities have a cost in BRACKETS that must be paid in order to use the ability. Using an action ability is one type of action a player can take during their turn. 2. A player must pay the full cost of an action ability in order to resolve that ability. After a player pays the cost to use an action ability, they resolve that ability’s effect, described by the non-bold text after the word “Action.” Palpatine cost: 1,tap,sacrifice a unit: Ability: Deal 1, draw. You must pay the cost before the ability is triggered on Palp. Part of the cost is sacrificing the unit. As a result, the sacrifice COST triggers the Inferno Four ability prior to the Palpatine's ability because "AFTER a player pays the cost to use an action ability, they resolve that ability’s effect, described by the non-bold text after the word Action." Hope this clears it up.
@Artificery5 ай бұрын
@@Narch22 Sorry, you're incorrect here. When you take the action "Use an Action Ability", you follow those steps, which includes playing the costs through resolving the ability. There are no windows to resolve triggered abilities in this process (like in "Attack with a unit"). Anything triggered would resolve after the Action Ability has completely finished resolving/completely finished the "Use an Action Abiility" action
