Love your tech videos. Within the video can you show what you would pull out of the main deck for the sideboard cards? And a gameplay video would be nice as well

@TimothyBernard-z2m 8 ай бұрын

You say in the write up to take out one (1) Guerilla Pod but what do you replace it with, unless I missed it in the video?

@VeiledShotSWU 8 ай бұрын

I just messed up the graphic, it's 51 cards if you were to put 3 in, I meant to put x2.

Do you think Sabine Yellow is stronger in a best of one meta with a ton of Boba players? What would you switch out and main deck if so to tech against boba?

@VeiledShotSWU 8 ай бұрын

Exhaust cards are particularly good against Boba as a lot of the strategy relies on actually killing your units and getting in with their Boba.

Why not run Syndicate Lackeys in place of Gorilla Pod? The grit is nice, but going that long you risk it getting bounced by things like Vanquish. At least Lackeys grants you ambush. Also, Chopper in this deck could be useful. or at least as a sideboard option. Playing him with both Sabines makes him a 1 drop Raid 2 and you get the discard with potential exhaust early game.

@gloth 8 ай бұрын

gorilla pod without ecl is worse than lackeys imo, I would agree on that swap. Also add ezra on main deck instead of fighters for freedom and chopper becomes a lot more viable. (1 drop 1 attack raid 1 btw, not raid 2 right? :) )

@VeiledShotSWU 8 ай бұрын

Attack Pod is a hasted unit that can attack bases, which is a massive difference compared to lackeys. As for Chopper, you can definitely run him, problem is that he usually just dies before you can deploy a spectre unit anyways and even if you do it's just a 2/3 for 1 and you can't follow up with another 1 drop oftentimes so it's just a weaker creature.

@83jachee 8 ай бұрын

@gloth even with ecl it isn't that great. Can only use on one pod for ambush. I'd rather have 2-3 built in with lackeys. Cunning just needs something a bit more fun in the later game ha ha

@@VeiledShotSWU I think the potential to destroy an opponents turn outweights the 1(2)/3 power. But with ezra as x3 instead of fighters. Plus sabine comes out on turn 3. My problem is... what do you replace it with? everything is such a value card :) greedo is too good with his 3(5) dmg 1 cost. I would pick leia and lose mid game control for early game luck :D Attack pod and lackeys are a different story... the pod is more luck based, it can be better or worse... it needs 15 base dmg -which is honestly the easier part for a sabine on 6 mana - but you give the opportunity to your opponent to counter it... but lackeys will always perform the same, and given the lack of ecl i would probably go for lackeys

@gloth 8 ай бұрын

I am also wondering how sneak attack works with ambush... is the "it comes into play ready" considered a "when played" ability that the card gets? If that is the case, you can use ambush and also ready it, and its too strong, but that's probably not how it works :(

@beesgamingaz 8 ай бұрын

I like the Leia, but trooper synergy with Precision Strike, Heroic Sac and Surprise Strike is strong. A turn 3 Sneak Attack'd K2 + Heroic Sac for 9 damage is too fun.

Unconfirmed, but with all the Rebels it seems like this would run great with Leia as well!

@VeiledShotSWU 8 ай бұрын

The tricky part is that you can't run all the rebels since Leia is green :( most of the fantastic rebels (Sabine, K2, Red Three, A-wing) are all red cards so Leia yellow is far less good.

@VeiledShotSWU 8 ай бұрын

So based on my calculations, the card has an 89% chance to deal 3 damage, which means it's 3 resources for 3 damage most often which is a decent chunk worse than 4 damage, add to that the fact that we have so many other ways to push in damage with the yellow tricks, I've found you could run a couple but I prefer the yellow tricks.

The meta is still very obvious conventional wisdom. For instance that aggro needs to be red. The obsession with ECL and green just because of the consistency of the cards at every curve. (All reasonable and valid, but I think not the end of the story) I experimented a lot and very successfully with Leia Yellow. When I make this statement a common comment is "but red is aggro or the Sabine / red aggro red cards are too good". Here are two trade-offs seldom considered (again not saying this is absolutely better, but more to illustrate some thinking): (1) Yes, Sabine and red aggro cards are good, but you attack unit after unit, allowing your opponent to remove / disrupt at least one of 2+ potential attackers. Red cards also have base ping, direct damage and raid linked to other cards - so taking out attackers hurts the amount of total damage per turn. If you play Leia correctly you prioritise two things: (a) attacking first every turn with two rebel units and (b) priority to attack first. There is nothing the opponent can do to disrupt two rebel units attacking first action of the turn. The Leia action economy also allows you to actually have more actions available and still take initiative (more on that below). Still it seems the conventional wisdom is to only look at damage potential (although more on this below) and not a more holistic take on the race / aggro approach. (Including why you don't need a 25 base in Leia aggro) (2) Aggro-mid game balance. Adding yellow has more play into turn 5-6 and maybe 7. Sabine Red / Green comes down to a race and is 100% into winning turn 4-5 maybe with luck turn 6. Adding yellow gives Sabine more legs, but I think less legs than Leia Yellow. You get the solid drops of Battlefield Marine, Echo Base Defender and Rogue Operative / Fleet Lieutenant - whilst not individually as good as red cards - doesn't matter for consistent turn 1 double attack damage of at least 6 often closer to 8. But because Leia is so action economy efficient, you can often be guaranteed of your damage for the turn, playing an event and / or another unit and still take initiative. Bottom line - I beat Leia Green and Leia Red decks, because what it often missed is the individual cards (raid, base damage) for the action efficiency of a double attack with your first activation. You not only race at the end of the day just a quickly (often at 20 damage end turn 4 and win first attack turn 5) but have more actions available to disrupt and make key plays than Sabine and red cards (that take more actions). Often also more units because of action economy. For instance, against Sabine, often a Leia (unit) can really be a cheeky and disruptive play (again after your have double attacked first action) or a Waylay / Asteroid Sanctuary - precisely because you have an action left to tap say Sabine (leader) and / or X red card (often with only good if can attack that turn) and still take initiative...You can even sometimes afford to pass and still take initiative at the end. Any way long story short, whilst I am not saying Sabine Green or the rest of the meta is not good or wrong - I think a lot of the meta is sort of based on what is obviously apparent (this is still significant - not underplaying it) and that this is being spread as gospel by content creators and copied like gospel by players. Whilst, I think as things develop we might see some of these meta decks getting a lot more counter-play and some other leaders demand some attention. In that spirit, really liked the approach of this deck - but you should try Leia Yellow ;)

@VeiledShotSWU 8 ай бұрын

Oh I definitely have played with Leia yellow, as it's one of the couple of decks I have in person so I can easily modify it. It can definitely do some crazy stuff, but the consistency of the red cards you get in the rebel category just has more stable matchups.

ezra with his sudo card draw seems more impactful than fighters for freedom in my eyes on this deck, because of the lack of red cards. How come you decided to keep fighters in the main deck ?

@VeiledShotSWU 8 ай бұрын

Ezra's card draw is not really relevant as it's only on completion of attack so it's not really going to take effect all the time and then you have to want to play that card that you saw that turn, and your hand is almost always good enough to not really want that when you can trade that potential upside for even 1 or 2 points of additional damage.
