The ULTIMATE Qi'Ra Guide

[@L8NightGaming]

Wooooo is in the S tier of competitive content creators. The deck itself has been killing it for me as well in testing. -Loopee

[@iamwooooo]

Thanks bud!

[@CaptainTaelos]

I think this is the best SWU video I have ever watched and I don't say this lightly. You are an absolute value machine in terms of videos. Keep up the super hard work

[@iamwooooo]

That means a lot! Thank you!

[@KrazyKarlOSU]

Woooo “rambling” is more insightful that 97% of the things I say about this game. Probably. Great video. Just got my Vaders so I can build this deck irl.

[@iamwooooo]

Hah, congrats on getting the Vaders!

[@woodyelliott2014]

Best competitive deck analysis that I've ever seen. Wooooo is the master that I want to be! Padawan learner wanna-be right here! (Or apprentice, lol!) A++++!!! Thanks! -WooE

[@iamwooooo]

I really appreciate it!

[@For_the_empire]

Watching this video really feels like we are being coached and that's awesome. Great job. I wanted to play a Qira deck ( cause I really like black blue green decks and Qira showcase 😅) well you made it happen... keep the great work! And congrats on the 7.0 at Gencon.

[@iamwooooo]

Appreciate it!

[@GoldenDicePodcast]

Babe wakeup, Wooooo dropped his Qi'ra banger!

[@iamwooooo]

@@GoldenDicePodcast Hope it helps!

[@VVRATHH]

Best SWU Video on KZbin easily. Please do more of these for other decks. (Personally I'd like to see Han2/Blue covered as I struggle against it with Qi'ra but also like the deck).

[@iamwooooo]

I really appreciate it! I do have a Han Blue video (not as in-depth as the Qi'ra Guide), so hope you can check that one out too!

[@VVRATHH]

@@iamwooooo Likely going to rewatch, that and the L8 Night Gaming Masterclass are great videos on the deck. If there were a video made as comprehensive as you have done for Qi'ra I think that would be perfect but I understand something like that would take some time, thank you!

[@doomfunk]

Ive been struggling with lines of the deck recent. Needed this. Thanks bb

[@iamwooooo]

@@doomfunk I hope it helps!

[@andrewwoodruff2572]

Fantastic video!! Super glad to see how well Qi'ra performed at Gencon, especially after me thinking she would be an amazing leader, but generally seeing commentary on Reddit and Discord about her as "yeah, she could be good but is kinda niche and situational".

[@iamwooooo]

Definitely surprising to me.

[@JamboyJokobo]

Yessss. I've been waiting for this. Love the content and detailed analysis.

[@iamwooooo]

@@JamboyJokobo Thank you!

[@WhiteHeadSeaEagle]

The Day has come🎉 Thank you Wooooo😊

[@iamwooooo]

@@WhiteHeadSeaEagle No problem!

[@Lizardwithdahat]

I tried a Dr. Pershing for a little while and very quickly moved to a 3 of. I feel like card advantage isnt the best arena to get ahead on, but it certainly does help.

[@spencerkogut107]

I absolutely love Qi’ra Green. I am glad she is finally getting recognition after being looked over before

[@iamwooooo]

I don't know why she was getting overlooked!

[@Mobyus1]

Love this video. Keep the high-quality content coming! Would love to play against you sometime!

[@lukewilson5890]

Great video. Some sound advice on better tactics and clear lines of play for certain matchups. Cheers Wooooo :)

[@iamwooooo]

Thank you!

[@MADforSWU]

Nice vid Woo! I could see Qira becoming the rich kid deck for people who spend tonnes on singles where the rest us go "ugh qira" when we play it lol

[@iamwooooo]

Hah, I guess that's possible!

[@SunsdownGaming]

I have been waiting on this. Great deck tech

[@iamwooooo]

@@SunsdownGaming Thank you!

[@solidscorpion]

Wooooo with the hot list. Excited to hit locals with it.

[@iamwooooo]

@@solidscorpion Hope it goes well!

[@midnightcarnivalxxR]

Hi. I’m running this list due to not having vaders. How does it look? Qi’Ra Green ECL Pile Ground units- 26 3 death trooper 3 hylobon enforcer 3 maul - shadow collective visionary 3 Pyke sentinel 3 reinforcement walker 3 superlaser technician 2 Gideon hask 2 lom pyke 2 supreme leader snoke- shadow ruler 2 the client Space units- 8 3 consortium starviper 3 inferno four 1 avenger - hunting Star destroyer 1 devastator - inescapable Events- 16 3 make an opening 3 overwhelming barrage 3 power of the dark side 3 resupply 2 takedown 2 rival’s fall Sideboard- 3 top target 2 palpatine’s return

[@iamwooooo]

Losing Vader does require a bunch of changes, and it’s not something I’ve explored. Keep in mind the new set is releasing so the deck might go through some changes soon.

[@robertshashy5964]

Thank you for the detailed guide. It is clear a lot of personal investment went into making this video. I've had some success myself with Qi'ra, and with Krennic in set 1. However, I'm struggling to find the deck as top tier as you're describing it. I'm playing a list that looks similar to the 30 point base list, for clarity. I'm getting to the late game in most matches, but struggling to put the opponent away. I also struggle a bit with understanding how to use a few cards optimally, especially Lom Pyke. But overall, really appreciate you and your investment in the SWU competitive community

[@iamwooooo]

Thanks for the comment! I hope the info in the video helps tighten up some of the match ups. I spend some time covering Lom Pyke as well. He's been performing very well.

[@robertshashy5964]

@@iamwooooo I've watched through the video, and it is very detailed. But something isn't clicking for me for some reason. Just a suggestion, but some game play content to see your thoughts in action would be great.

[@CashMoosie]

Straight up Boss videos/content/strategy. 5 O's for the W! Wooooo!

[@iamwooooo]

Hah, thanks!

[@mariotee10]

Oh this is amazing. I’m playing a budget version of Qi’Ra green that uses First Light. that tends to be my finisher. it’s also nice to smuggle in late game

[@iamwooooo]

That's a reasonable include!

[@Karn_BE]

Great video, gives me a better view on how to compete against this deck. Han 2 player here, looking forward on your Han Blue deck update

[@iamwooooo]

@@Karn_BE I've been making some changes, there's a lot of options in Blue Han. Hope it's been testing well for you. The updated deck lists are on my patreon currently.

[@Karn_BE]

@@iamwooooo to be honest it isn’t going as hoped vs Sabine green and Qi’ra especially. The discard isn’t doing enough and easy to play around.

[@ussenterprise1394]

Thanks for sharing your knowledge and wisdom.

[@iamwooooo]

@@ussenterprise1394 Of course!

[@MakeAnOpening]

The people have been fed. Thank you wooooo for this hearty meal

[@TruongMtgArenaHearthstone03]

How about hard control mill?

[@iamwooooo]

There's a section in the video that covers that.

[@Moy_]

🎓awesome video Woooo!

[@iamwooooo]

Thank you!

[@midnightcarnivalxxR]

Any plans to update this with set 3 cards?

[@iamwooooo]

I will likely get a video guide out at some point covering changes! I have versions of Qi’Ra up on Patreon as well.

[@Gnimsh]

amazing vid, thanks so much!

[@iamwooooo]

Thanks so much!

[@ignithas3150]

Very cool video. One question that would interest me. If a lot of people are bringing Qi'ra to tournaments, what decks would you play to counter them?

[@iamwooooo]

Palp Blue would probably be very tough (but struggles against Sabine). Can try to work on decks featuring Ruthless Raider too. I'll also be working on counters!

[@Xyea66]

Insane! Thank you

[@iamwooooo]

You're welcome!

[@thewriterswriter]

Wooooo drops wisdom, I like, comment, and check if I've subscribed

[@iamwooooo]

Much appreciated!

[@rebeltraitor3543]

Wake up babe, hour and a half wooooo video just dropped!

[@iamwooooo]

@@rebeltraitor3543 Hah, hope you enjoy it! Curious how your Qi'Ra testing is shaping up.

[@ChristopherTurrek]

Why no dr Pershings? What would you actually change in the deck with this current Meta?

[@iamwooooo]

This is the guide from the set 2 cycle. I actually have another video guide for Qi’Ra (and Krennic) from the set 3 cycle. I encourage you to check it out! Pershing is in that version.

[@FirebrandSWU]

Great vid. The best decks against it are Blue/Green decks like palp? Any other card thats good other than ruthless raider?

[@iamwooooo]

You can also try to play a value game. Discard backed up by pressure, late game engines (card draw, smuggle).

[@FirebrandSWU]

​​@@iamwooooothat would mean double yellow Han is favourable right? Or you mean like pillage Route combined with late game?

[@iamwooooo]

@@FirebrandSWU I wouldn't say it's favorable, but it has a plan of attack for the match up. Pillage decks can also fight her on that angle.

[@MitchTweed]

Won UK Tournament Circuit - GT Series: August 1k Leicester with this list card for card 7-0 10/10

[@iamwooooo]

I think I saw your last game against Mono Yellow Boba. Congrats man! That's awesome.

[@fechin4]

Hi, I really want to use Qi'Ra and have been doing a ton of testing. However, I only have 1 Vader and that's how I've been testing. I feel like it's definitely an issue. I've used more Mauls and a Dooku. Any substitution ideas?

[@iamwooooo]

I don't think anything can really take the place of Vader, but in the time being the Maul and Dooku will have to do.

[@fechin4]

@iamwooooo thanks, for the reply. Love the content. Keep it up!

[@NateSix2Six]

Wooooo how do we feel about trying to get a 3 snoke in the list? After playing at my locals tonight snoke was putting in work.

[@iamwooooo]

I think that's reasonable. Would probably need to trim something at the top for it.

[@NateSix2Six]

@@iamwooooo would it be a bad idea to drop one of the Hylobon Enforcers?

[@iamwooooo]

@@NateSix2Six You can try but the deck is already only playing 9 turn one plays.

[@Lorcana_Mr.Lucky_BigBrainPlays]

U dodged all the Sabine decks that day and that matchup rough. Also notice all the boba decks going heavy space now what other space units would u add if u could ? Love you’re content keep up good work from another content creator

[@iamwooooo]

@@Lorcana_Mr.Lucky_BigBrainPlays I talk about Sabine a lot in this video. And I don't think it's necessarily a bad match up. There's not much other space to be honest. Maybe StarVipers, System Patrol Craft - nothing I'd be super excited to include.

[@Lorcana_Mr.Lucky_BigBrainPlays]

I edited my post a bit. everyone going heavy space now for boba. So ramp vs Sabine and mulligan for ramp didn’t know that Ty

[@gerbinos2]

lol, how Qi ra bad vs sabine. Its not amazing, but its certainly not a bad matchup

[@pdandeneau4659]

Kinda broke and only have 2 vaders. Would it be reasonable to main an extra palps return as a discount vader?

[@iamwooooo]

I think that's reasonable for now. Could also run an extra Maul.

[@spencerkogut107]

I absolutely love Qi’ra Green. I am glad she is finally getting recognition after being looked over before. I could never afford Vader units. I am currently running 2 Dooku and 2 Mauls instead. Do you have any other recommendations there?

[@iamwooooo]

I do think Vader is a pretty key piece, but for now running the Dookus and Mauls will have to do. I don't have many other ideas for that slot.

[@spencerkogut107]

@@iamwooooo thanks man!

[@CrispyQrunch]

Been playing Qira-Green a lot, but against Han2 Blue is don't see a chance. It feels like an uphill battle all of the time. Starts with Andor 3-5, ends with Luke Skywalker, Chebacca and Kryat Dragon killing basicaly everything you play. That's when you even have cards left after Pillage, Force Throw and Kannan killing your hand.

[@iamwooooo]

I haven't found that match up to be too bad. I prioritize ramp and a big ECL hit / Qi'Ra flip to stabilize the board. I don't play low impact cards early to protect a bit from the discard plan. I think our end game matches up well with their end game, especially when we ramp. Definitely takes some getting used to the play patterns, keep at it!

[@Meme-Kane]

I guess the next deck on the rise we see is, what beats this qira deck! But can it be done.

[@iamwooooo]

Will definitely need to have it in mind we preparing.

[@maravitch]

Thanks for this video! Let’s get ppl at locals out of winning only with sabine and boba

[@iamwooooo]

I think things are going to open up!

[@acedobleace]

Ironic how THE one leader that can take down Qira Green was not covered here, the Rey Red!

[@iamwooooo]

This video was made before Rey got popular. I also don’t view that match up much differently from Han2 Blue.
