PACK 1 PICK 1 - Let's Draft Star Wars Unlimited

I open up five "virtual" packs and discuss what I'd take as my first card in a booster draft. Got a different opinion? Let me know in the comments!

I've been using your guide for about a week now and didn't even know you had a channel! Sick! Your guide helped me so much bro... won our local 12 player draft. Went 3-0 (2-0, 2-0, 2-0) with Boba. At-st, Mercenary Company and Reinforcment Walker have been clutch for me. Subscribed looking forward to more content!

Thank you! Awesome to hear you're having success!

In the first pack why did you not consider Swoop Racer. Works with all leaders (Tarkin the least) but keeps you open across the board?

[@iamwooooo]

Swoop racer is a solid playable but it's power level is a bit below something like superlaser tech. Although I value flexibility, at a certain point pure power still wins out. On top of that, the tech doesn't color lock us because of tarkin, so one could say it's also very flexible.

[@cerberus6858]

Don't disagree with SLT at all. More just thought you'd include Swoop over Kanan, Force Throw and Avenger, which do lock mostly. I just thought it was worth considering even if SLT is the right answer. For example I wouldn't want to lock in red blue hero with Kanan over Swoop.

I can see that, Kanan's power level is very high but it's a bit narrow in this pack. The Avenger/Force throw weren't really considerations here, just was highlighting them to talk about rare drafting and to give force throw a shout out about it's overall power level once you have the enablers.
