After watching this I can only think of: Through passion, I gain strength. Through strength, I gain power. Through power, I gain victory. Through victory, my chains are broken.

Great video, I just picked up the starter pack, any recommendations for LGSs in the PNW that have a growing community around this game?

[@UnlimitedPowerSWU]

Quite a few places in Portland area for sure. There’s also some social groups on discord and Facebook for the PNW. discord.gg/JWVsyJju

Thanks for the video. Been trying to find another card game besides MtG that I like.(traveled and played even opened a game store I liked it so much) Pokemon wasn't it. Digimon was okay, One Piece I was hoping I'd like more. I want to play flesh and blood but nobody around here really plays. Lorcana is interesting and I like it but isn't as in-depth of a game as Star Wars. Grand Archive I hear I lot of good things about but I don't know anyone that plays. Glad this game has a good number of plays in my area going to stick with this. Always have been a super big star wars fan so it works out. Our planetary qualifier next month is going to have over 100 players super excited for that!

You forgot literally the most important thing. Know what events are competitive and which events are casual. Competitive players destroy casual events in a bad way and make many casual players not want to play at stores, which in turn destroys a game. For example, the common pack-per-win "tournaments" are casual events, not really a place to be competitive, but a good place to play brand new deck ideas for the first time.

[@Engrishhard]

Not even close to the most important thing lol. But nice input I guess?

[@luissantiago4438]

@@Engrishharddefinitely is tho. thats exactly what ruined the casual commander scene when i used to play mtg. a few players started bringing in super competitive decks and basically made everyone not want to come. now we dont have commander at all. knowing what to bring to the right event is how you keep the scene alive in the first place and bring those new players in to even have a competitive scene in the first place.

[@ProfessorWaifu]

@@Engrishhard In every healthy card game casuals are definitely without a doubt the most important thing. Casuals as a group out spend competitives as a group by a very large margin. If competitive players be competitive in a casual environment it makes casuals not want to play. If casuals stop spending, the game stops being profitable, then dies.

Yeah I’m working on a Thrawn green deck. I use weekly play to test it out.

[@MrNbkelly]

@@ProfessorWaifu If you bring a casual deck to an event with prize support, you shouldn't be surprised when you face down something more competitive. Also, with the tournament software being used and performance being tracked, people who want to be ultra-competitive are more incentivized to bring strong decks. If you want to play casual that is awesome, but the pack-per-win tournaments are not casual by definition. If I can open an 800-dollar card in a prize pack, I am playing to win that night, and there is nothing wrong with that.

Well done!

[@mikoajsikorski9317]

step 1: have money step 2: build meta deck This game isn't really complicated

[@christopherpoet458]

It also isn't that expensive. I have collected a lot and built four decks (and modified both set precons) on a 40/50 budget every two weeks.

[@BiggsBreaks]

Instead of net decking, you could just build one your own based off your deck building skills. Than you have an iden deck like mine prior to goofy Sabine players releasing you can control and aggro by side boarding two cards. It’s either 2-0 or 2-1. I hate net deckers, spice up the “net deck” slightly, make it your own.

[@christopherpoet458]

Agreed. I stopped playing MTG Standard because everyone at the LGS only ever meta decks/net decks and I got bored.
