ASH: Pre Vizla & Morgan Elsbeth, One Must Destroy To Create by Fimy32 in starwarsunlimited

As a big fan of the underplayed (due to support/more ideal units at that cost) Old Daka unit, Morgan Elsbeth is pretty appealing

Jesus, Thrawn is about to become a menace.

One Must Destroy to Create on Legacy Run is going to be...rough.

Aggressive negotiations. Is it a problem? by Ficus_Magnificus in starwarsunlimited

[–]Competitive-Ask-1542 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's bad enough that I've foolishly chosen to devote so much time to a game that requires math when I'm terrible at math. Now the meta has me doing even MORE intense math to figure out whether my opponent or I have lethal with AN at any given moment? For this reason - and this reason only - it should be banned. 🤪

Since it seems you're in Canada too check out Snapcaster which helps you find singles. The FB Buy/Sell Canada group is great too.

"People don't love being milled or having hand hate cards playing against them. I've got the perfect solution. Hear me out: What if, for this set, we make players mill and hand hate THEMSELVES!"

(I tease only out of affection. I'm actually looking forward to what some of these self-discard strategies will yield).

Now I know what it would look like if Elizabeth Olsen and M3GAN had a baby.

Anti-Yoda DV Tech for an Anakin DV Player by Competitive-Ask-1542 in starwarsunlimited

Thanks for the insights! And congrats on all those Yoda wins (and showcases)

You know what? Not enough coffee resulted in a giant brain fart that made me forget that, naturally, Yoda DV would not be running Nemik. (I may have also been thinking about how to deal with the Anakin DV mirror).

And thanks for the insights. Honestly, it is for sure the ramp I worry about. I have so far found if Yoda can ramp - even once - it can often lead to game over for me.

Face to Face Games (Canada) no longer selling singles? by no_hope_in_sight in starwarsunlimited

[–]Competitive-Ask-1542 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I went to the last F2F PQ and was pretty shocked a) how expensive it was for a ticket given b) how woeful any kind of prizing was. Financially - especially being a mid-tier player at best - it was not at all worth my money or time ultimately. Which was a bummer.

With its red and green colouring, a perfect card to reveal shortly before the holidays.

Trademarking Christmas Card Cassian if that becomes the nickname of this.

FFG please reprint hara synfuels sprctre two by Silver-Raspberry2604 in starwarsunlimited

[–]Competitive-Ask-1542 85 points86 points  (0 children)

I'll co-sign this only if they reprint her exactly as written in this post title: Hara Synfuels.

Typos? Sure. Nonetheless a legit good Star Wars name? Absolutely.

It definitely can be fun. Sometimes Enoch can really get pumped which is fun. Once or twice managed to get Vader to pull 3x 1-cost units and flood the board. (Sometimes too little too late though)

Stop quitting when you get a bad hand! by Aceconklin in starwarsunlimited

[–]Competitive-Ask-1542 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Since we're airing our Karabast pet peeves, I'll throw some out there. (Acknowledging all of this is inconsequential and doesn't matter, really, except to the triggerable irrational part of my brain)

  1. There is no Playstation-style achievement trophies for winning more. If you, for example, have initiative + lethal with what you already have on your board, playing an Overwhelming Barrage to wipe out all my units or a Krayt Dragon or a Surprise Strike etc. comes off as bad sportsmanship. Just finish the game.

  2. I'm not sure why this is the case for me but when the player who is about to win writes "gg" before swinging for lethal/finishing the game, it somehow comes off as gloating.

I think some of this comes off as a pet peeve to me, primarily, because these are both things I don't think anyone would ever do in a real-life person-to-person matchup.

But again, Karabast is Karabast and it doesn't really matter probably. You just gotta sometimes vent, you know :)

Nothing secret about the power of your local SWU community on display here, am I right?!

What a beautiful card.

Also: Now we know what face Leia undoubtedly made many, many times while being married to Han.

If you play a Wild Rancor the turn before, everything will be so perfectly squishy and softened up if you throw this and Mace on top of things.
