How do you like to play Bossk??

[@funtimewithhuskyman5601]

I have a big problem with having a hand gull of bountiesy however pershing really fixed that

[@SWUDAD]

@@funtimewithhuskyman5601 Yeah Pershing is amazing in here

[@Claciusvile]

I don’t play boskk , until I saw this list. Now it’s on going to be on my list to get around to playing. This week will be trying mono blue Rey and then week after I’ll play this with some tweaks.

[@SWUDAD]

@@Claciusvile Nice!! let me know how it goes. I had a blast playing this deck, and it was very competive

[@GhostxDivision]

I Will play Bossk with Ecl because control isn t my play but bossk blue is interesting though Thx for yours videos

[@dcsj30]

Thanks for putting this together! I was one of the guys who requested it and im glad to see you enjoyed it as much as i have.

[@SWUDAD]

No problem! It was a blast playing this deck. I love the card draw and the consistency in here

[@Jason-uf8uv]

I thought we talked about this buddy? No more spreading these control decks! Just kidding. I enjoyed yet another of you great videos. Thank you!

[@SWUDAD]

@@Jason-uf8uv haha 😂 appreciate it

i like what you did with blue base nice

[@SWUDAD]

Appreciate it!

I jammed some games with your list, it is straight gas. Nice list! I still am not a fan of the bossk blue control playstyle, the deck is very powerful!

@@lucaslahlum6331 appreciate it!! Yea not for everyone, but It was very dominant in play testing

Good morning! I present you the deck as I have it focused. I would like your advice if I have to modify something. Next week is the planetary and I would love to have the best version. // Ground Units 3 Doctor Pershing, Experimenting With Life 2 Krayt Dragon 3 Lieutenant Childsen, Death Star Prison Warden 2 Supreme Leader Snoke, Shadow Ruler // Space Units 3 Avenger, Hunting Star Destroyer // Events 2 Fell the Dragon 2 Force Choke 3 Make an Opening 3 Open Fire 3 Pillage 3 Power of the Dark Side 1 Restock 2 Rival's Fall 3 Superlaser Blast 3 Takedown 3 Vigilance // Upgrades 3 Death Mark 3 Entrenched 3 Top Target // Sideboard 3 Bazine Netal, Spy for the First Order 1 Bounty Hunter Crew 2 Imprisoned 1 Krayt Dragon 1 Restock 2 Tech, Source of Insight

[@SWUDAD]

I mean it looks great. The only difference in mine is I noticed that you took out "The Client" for "Imprisoned". How has the deck performed without Client against aggro decks? Imprisoned seems necessary to deal with Relentless, but I wouldn't want to lose my favorable matchup to aggro. I might move 1 "Tech" to the mainboard as my 51st card and just to have it in the mainboard always. I would than possibly add 1-2x Client in the sideboard. Just the static ability and being able to gain 10 life on Bossk's flip turn just seems too good to keep out.

[@AdolFett]

@@SWUDAD Aggressive decks like yellow boba, I didn't notice the absence of "The Client". Despite the cunning, it wasn't difficult to win and it was enough with the vigilance and top target. But it is possible that vs sabine will miss "The Client". Imprisoned is an interesting proposition even against a dragon. But I will put your proposal into practice. Thank you very much

[@SWUDAD]

@@AdolFett No problem. Let me know how it goes!

[@AdolFett]

@@SWUDAD I'm still thinking about the Sideboard for this Saturday's planetary. What do you think about adding Scanning Officer to stop the decks that lead to tech?

[@SWUDAD]

@@AdolFett not sure. Really depends on if you are expecting to see a lot of those decks It seems like there is a lot of Boba Green right now. I would make sure to get some play testing in against that, and a good game plan for “choose sides”

[@GudoTheGamer]

Switching Vader blue out to try this. Love the comeback ability in the deck just really acts as if you’re playing 2 bases 🤣

[@SWUDAD]

Yeah definitely ! Let me know how it goes. Personally, I like Bossk Blue better than Vader Blue because of the consistency with "Death Mark" and being able to draw 4 cards on Bossk flip turn. It is so easy to draw 5 cards in a turn in this deck, and that alone is just enough to put you far ahead in the matchup. Bossk also flips 2 turns earlier than Vader, which really helps against aggro, as well as using it's flip ability to get the bounties twice. I love how Bossk can really benefit off the bounty synergy with Client/Top Target/Death Mark and easily swing 17 life in a turn so that your opponent basically has to start all over again with trying to damage your base

[@GudoTheGamer]

@@SWUDAD and by then, it’s time to drop Krayt and all the bombs! Love the video and all your content 🙏🏻

[@SWUDAD]

@@GudoTheGamer Exactly. appreciate it brother

[@Darth_245]

Bombing run seems an amazing card against the wide han deck and decent into aggro in general.Maybe a sideboard consideration.Also did you check out the biggest swu tournament in spain where a bossk blue won?

[@SWUDAD]

Yeah definitely a strong consideration. No that's awesome!! I hadn't seen that yet. Do you have a link to the tournament results?

[@Darth_245]

@@Darth_245 Cool thanks

[@nsward99]

33:10 I had this same situation happen to be on paper and my lgs. I couldn't convince my opponent or judge that the clients ability couldn't be removed by uprgrade destruction. Bounties are considered upgrades but not if theyre action based? Hmmm. Idk

[@SWUDAD]

@@nsward99 yeah I don’t see how you remove an ability, the card would have to say remove all abilities, like force lightning says for example… a lot of people don’t understand the rules yet, which is understandable because it’s a new game

[@SwagDean]

Curious if you have tried Red Qi’ra. Gets better space units especially early and still has the great removal packages. I have had good luck with Give In to your Anger to really mess with Aggro having to waste time trading into grit units to either make them stronger or to die. Bombing Run after flipping Qi’ra makes losing Barrage easier.

[@SWUDAD]

No I haven't. Do you have a list that you would be willing to share? Would love to give it a shot

[@SwagDean]

@@SwagDean Nice! I'll check it out

[@funtimewithhuskyman5601]

I really like the controll variant, the only problem is that I have just 2 dragons and 2 avengers so I replaced them with bounty hunter guilt. Then I usually add one restock just in case

[@SWUDAD]

Bounty Hunter's Crew? Makes sense

[@funtimewithhuskyman5601]

@@SWUDAD Yeah, but is the bossk still better than Vader blue?

[@SWUDAD]

@@funtimewithhuskyman5601 Personally, I like Bossk Blue better than Vader Blue because of the consistency with "Death Mark" and being able to draw 4 cards on Bossk flip turn. Bossk also flips 2 turns earlier, which really helps against aggro, as well as using it's flip ability to get the bounties twice. I the synergy this deck has with "Top Target/The Client" and their bounties, and the ability to have big life swings consistently.

[@funtimewithhuskyman5601]

@@SWUDAD Oh you also play death mark there, that is nice. The only problem is that after playing superlaser blast, opponent can just swarm units and vader can deal with them

[@SWUDAD]

@@funtimewithhuskyman5601 Yea Vader is able to do that, and in Bossk you are able to regularly have a much larger hand size, which helps you to consistently find answers for what your opponent does

[@AdolFett]

Which deck do you prefer for hard control? Iden blue, boba blue or boosk blue?

[@SWUDAD]

@@AdolFett my preference is Bossk Blue right now. Bossk has a really strong aggro matchup which is important. Bossk flips early, and the card draw/life gain swings can be insane. Also love the red/blue removal package and being able to play Krayt Dragon as a finisher alongside Palpatine/Snoke/Avenger. It feels really strong , and is just a lot of fun. Also, love being able to play pillage as a hand disruption against certain matchups Bazine is my preference over “Spark of Rebellion” in the sideboard. With 2-3x restock to make sure you don’t deck yourself out and have a better matchup in the mirror Boba Blue has a more difficult aggro matchup from my testing. Solid card draw with enticing reward. Iden Blue was solid. Favorable aggro matchup from my testing. Not as much card draw though, and of course missing the better hand interaction from yellow, and the better removal/finishers from red. Although you could still play Bazine in the sideboard here

[@AdolFett]

@@SWUDAD A very interesting analysis that you propose. I have a blue boba whose sideboard is 2 krayt, 3 spark os rebellion, 3 bounty hunter, 1 confiscate and 1 bazine. As the meta stands, this deck may beat bossk and make it difficult for aggro. I'll listen to you, thank you

[@SWUDAD]

@@AdolFett Let me know how it goes! Another thing I will say is it also comes down to comfortability with the deck, experience, and your playstyle. Bossk fits my playstyle and how I like to play the game as well

[@MeepleonFire]

The thing is this deck is gonna loose the mill game against a yellow blue cause we dont have bounty crew and they have bazine too

[@SWUDAD]

Yeah definitely if it gets to that point, and every deck has to lose to something. Krayt Dragon helps, and so do pillage and Ruthless Raider in the sideboard. You also could play 1-2x copies of Bounty Hunter Crew at 8 cost in the sideboard if you were worried about the mill game.

[@MeepleonFire]

@@SWUDAD yeah but why playing a deck that looses to practicly the same version. I dont think Boba has worst machup than this one. I would be curious to see if Krayt really helps.

[@SWUDAD]

@@MeepleonFire I would say because this deck has a better matchup vs aggro than Boba blue does from my experience. The removal package you get from having both "Red" and "Blue" removal is stronger against aggro, the suttle damage from the bounties, and the ability to have big life swing turns consistently on Bossk flip turn from the bounties This deck is also very consistent because of the card with "Death Mark" where you can draw 4 cards on Bossk Swing turn. Yes drawing more makes you more susceptible to being milled out, but it also helps you to have more consistency early on. Boba Blue has this with "Enticing Reward" as well, but that's why I said all these 3 control decks have their strengths and their weaknesses, and I would feel confident playing anyone of them

[@RobinsAssistant]

Blue decks are so damn boring bro I'm sorry lol! Only blue deck i like is GI blue and Gar Yellow but thats cuz theyre hella aggro

[@SWUDAD]

To each their own. I actually find Control decks very challenging as I am trying to stay alive all game, and draw into the pieces to help me get to my end game. I find aggro decks incredibly boring lol
