Have you had any success since set 2 released with Vader Blue???
@GudoTheGamer2 ай бұрын
I’ve topped a few locals with Vader blue. I don’t play system patrol crafts at this time but might add them in. I’m running Dr Pershing (2 of) which is helping keep hang big to avoid the Pillage / Poe killing my hand. People think it’s slow but, cards do things. I noticed a lot of these games you plaid your hand size went down to 1-3 cards often which I guess didn’t affect you too much cause you went 5-1. Here’s my list: Leader and Base 1 Darth Vader, Dark Lord of the Sith 1 Remnant Science Facility // Ground Units 3 Death Star Stormtrooper 2 Doctor Pershing, Experimenting With Life 1 Emperor Palpatine, Master of the Dark Side 1 Krayt Dragon 3 Lieutenant Childsen, Death Star Prison Warden 3 Pyke Sentinel 2 Supreme Leader Snoke, Shadow Ruler 3 The Client, Dictated By Discretion // Space Units 3 Avenger, Hunting Star Destroyer 3 Inferno Four, Unforgetting // Events 3 Fell the Dragon 3 Force Choke 2 I Am Your Father 3 Power of the Dark Side 3 Rival's Fall 1 Search Your Feelings 2 Superlaser Blast 3 Takedown 3 Vigilance // Upgrades 3 Entrenched

Have been following your Iden deck techs and absolutely love the green version so thanks for sharing that! She's definitely my favourite control leader and I'd love to take her to a tournament at some point once I get enough reps in. Have you been adding anything new to the deck lately? I am keen to try out Top Target for healing overkill in a more events based deck potentially. Any recommendations to replace Vader and Avenger for the time being if I don't have them? Also 3 copies of Snoke in the main seems strong xD

Glad the content has been helpful. Iden Green is one of my favorite decks. "The Client" has been really strong in Iden Green with it's bounty ability to continue to gain 5 life and pick off threats. Unfortunately, I am not sure what you can replace Vader with in this deck besides "Maul". Avenger is just irreplacable as it's one of the best cards in the game. You could just go "Relentless" in the mainboard over that card I guess. I posted my updated deck list below for your convenience. Leader and Base 1 Iden Versio, Inferno Squad Commander 1 Energy Conversion Lab // Ground Units 3 Darth Vader, Commanding the First Legion 2 Gideon Hask, Ruthless Loyalist 1 Maul, Shadow Collective Visionary 3 Phase-III Dark Trooper 3 Pyke Sentinel 2 Rukh, Thrawn's Assassin 3 Superlaser Technician 2 Supreme Leader Snoke, Shadow Ruler 3 The Client, Dictated By Discretion // Space Units 2 Avenger, Hunting Star Destroyer 3 Consortium StarViper 2 Inferno Four, Unforgetting // Events 2 Make an Opening 3 Overwhelming Barrage 3 Power of the Dark Side 3 Resupply 2 Fell the Dragon 2 Superlaser Blast 2 Takedown 2 Timely Intervention 2 Vigilance // Sideboard 1 Avenger, Hunting Star Destroyer 2 Devastator, Inescapable 1 Make an Opening 3 Relentless, Konstantine's Folly 1 Restock 1 Superlaser Blast 1 Vigilance

this is really similar to a list ive been having a lot of success with. In mine I dont run top target or system patrol craft (though I really want it in the list I'll probably try and fit it), trimmed on take downs and open fires. Then I run 3 pillage, 1 force throw, 3 pershing and 2 bravado. I'll agree with your comment in this thread, Client is insane. It does more than just heal. I've found you can force people into attacking with the unit you place the bounty on. That can bait out an attack that would for instance kill off Childsen then you slam Childsen, take initiative and then next turn use a kill spell on the unit that would trade with Childsen. I will say i REALLY like pershing, throw an entrenched on him and he draws more and then also trades with units that try to remove him, or can fight back if you're really losing in ground

Yeah Client is crazy good. Totally agree with your line of thinking. I really like the "3x Pillage", that's a card I want to fit in there myself. Entrenched on Pershing is a great idea. What's your list if you don't mind sharing?

@@SWUDAD Here's the list, what I'm thinking about doing to get System Patrol Craft is to do -1 force throw, -1 pershing (as good as I think it is I will try with just 2), and not sure for a 3rd card I'll have to noodle on it // Leader and Base 1 Darth Vader, Dark Lord of the Sith 1 Dagobah Swamp // Ground Units 3 Death Star Stormtrooper 3 Doctor Pershing, Experimenting With Life 2 Emperor Palpatine, Master of the Dark Side 1 Krayt Dragon 3 Lieutenant Childsen, Death Star Prison Warden 2 Supreme Leader Snoke, Shadow Ruler 3 The Client, Dictated By Discretion // Space Units 2 Avenger, Hunting Star Destroyer 3 Inferno Four, Unforgetting // Events 2 Bravado 3 Force Choke 2 Force Throw 2 Make an Opening 2 Open Fire 3 Pillage 3 Power of the Dark Side 2 Rival's Fall 2 Superlaser Blast 1 Takedown 3 Vigilance // Upgrades 3 Entrenched

@phlash05802 ай бұрын
@SWUDAD yeah that could be cut or trimmed. I just really like it with the vader flip turn, it's surprisingly strong but can be situational.
@SWUDAD2 ай бұрын
@@phlash0580 yeah seems like a cool card, but not necessary for the deck to win. Guess it depends on what you value more. Being able to have a strong sentinel in space, or being able to ready a unit twice. I really like it with Avenger or Krayt Dragon late game. I am not sure how necessary it is though for the deck to be competitive feels more like a “Win More” card

Man your draws on this video were pretty insane! Personally I love Pershing in control decks. And the client is very slow, I dont see how you can activate him to recover.
@SWUDAD2 ай бұрын
The Client is amazing. I would say just test it out yourself. Once you start getting a feel to maximize it's effectiveness you'll love it because of the cushion that it gives you. It's very good in soft control decks as well. (Qi'ra/Iden Green)

Yeah prices are definitely crazy. They need to fix the supply issue before they lose a lot of people
@rusty57072 ай бұрын
Most of that cost is coming from Snoke, Kryat Dragon, Avenger, and Super Laser Blast. Replace these with a Fifth Brother, Seventh Sister, Ruthless Raider, and a Bombing Run. That should bring the price way down. It's not going to be as fast though, but for a weekly play it's fine. Karabast unfortunately skews to the more top end of play and price as you have access to every card and people are using it to get reps in for tournaments.
