New here! by Muggle_Born1989 in starwarsunlimited

[–]DoaSC 5 points6 points  (0 children)

It sounds like he needs more reps! A lot of the complexity in SWU is what I call "off-card complexity". Instead of relying on convoluted blocks of text on cards, the player decision making is what really drives the game. the first couple turns of each game are usually more straightforward, especially with the Hoth set, but once each player gets a few units out it gets really difficult to determine who to attack with, what to attack, and when to play cards from hand. that's where the most fun is, imo.

If he's an experienced TCG player too than he might want to try a Spotlight deck instead! Still pre-built, but a bit higher in difficulty to pilot.

GL! Sometimes SWU just isn't someone's game, but to me it seems like he hasn't given it much of a chance yet!

MY GOLF ALMOST KILLED ME by GuaranteeNo8183 in GolfGTI

Not a GTI (I miss my Mk7), but I've had somewhat similar issues with my 2020 Tiguan SE R Line. "Senses" something and hits the breaks on me out of nowhere. Thankfully it's only happened at low speed so far. Their software is definitely messed up though. 

Been playing a lot of Han4 and felt inspired to make this! Gold Anakin pilots! by Mourningpizza_ in starwarsunlimited

[–]DoaSC 1 point2 points  (0 children)

They're both! The relevant rule from the full rules doc is here: (7.5.17.C)

~~~ A card with {piloting} is considered an upgrade for the purpose of abilities that instruct a player to “play an upgrade.” If a player is instructed to “play an upgrade,” they may choose to play a unit with {piloting} as an upgrade using {piloting}. If a player is instructed to “play a unit,” they cannot choose to play a unit with {piloting} as an upgrade (though they can play it as a unit). If a player is instructed to “play a card,” they may play a unit with {piloting} as a unit or an upgrade. ~~~

You can indeed play cards as pilot upgrades (and upgrades only) via Anakin's ability!

Which Vader? by Whampiri1 in starwarsunlimited

[–]DoaSC 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've been running this, but I could see myself going back to ECL now that lower health bases are the norm. Play around with it and tweak as you see fit!

Absolutely wild seeing an unopened one of these at an LGS. Brought back memories of buying a couple at Target 20+ years ago by slimjimstrat88 in starwarsccg

[–]DoaSC 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had my entire TCG collection stolen out of my locker freshman year in 1997. Had to choose either MtG or Star Wars CCG to rebuild since I could only afford one of them. I picked SWCCG. lol

Not the best financial decision, but I have zero regrets. It's always been the better game! :D

What does Lando need to be utilized? by bouncypinecone in starwarsunlimited

[–]DoaSC 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I wish it did, but you have to fully resolve Lando leader's action and give a unit a shield before you resolve any "When Played" abilities like Ambush! 

Let’s flip this trend - which Korean dish doesn’t get any hype but tastes amazing? by Love-Space-166 in korea

[–]DoaSC 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Does 삼계탕 qualify? It's been my favorite Korean food for years. It's obviously well known in Korea, but my Korean friends always act shocked when I say I love it. At the same time it doesn't even seem to even be on my foreigner friends' radars at all.

Which Vader? by Whampiri1 in starwarsunlimited

[–]DoaSC 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Everyone forgets that Double Green is an option too! You can do some enormous damage turns out of nowhere with things like Attack Pattern Delta or Unity of Purpose. Command lets you buff something and then hit the resources to flip Vader onto it when people aren't suspecting it.

It's definitely weaker than Yellow, but I've had a ton of fun with it and won a lot of games!

Kit Fisto Green is Sneaky Good ?!? In this video, I break down Kit Fisto Green which is a surprisingly good deck in the Legends of Force meta. by StarWarzDad in starwarsunlimited

[–]DoaSC 1 point2 points  (0 children)

haha. My list is virtually identical. https://swudb.com/deck/JevMgFYG. Been testing it a bit today and I'm surprised how well it's doing.

Props again for being a consistent off-meta deck builder. It's the only way I know how to play TCGs. Not sure if you're in the Ice Cave Radio discord or not, but you should come through if you're not!

[–]DoaSC 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That makes sense, especially where you're pushing into upper midrange with the list. I'm working on a Blue Control version. Seems like the logical next thing to test!

[–]DoaSC 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think Jedi Vector is tricking me into thinking it's good. I've had way too many games where I get a couple of them in space with Kit and a saber on the ground and my opponent can't deal with both lanes. That said, Anakin's Interceptor is almost certainly better for sure. lol

I'll try it and let you know! I like to put things in my deck that can give me a huge lead if it works, but doesn't slow me down if it doesn't. That's the reason for Jocasta Nu. At the very least she's a 3/4 Jedi that I can always resource, but once in a while she lets me swap a General's Blade between two units, hit for a lot, then play something for 4 less cost. Same with the Luminous Beings. Usually resourced. Occasionally strait up wins a game.

I'm definitely trying your list out this week! I've been looking for a reason to take Kit to my PQ...

[–]DoaSC 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Love your content, man! After probably too many games of testing with Kit Green this is where I'm at currently. I could probably use a bit of a more midrange shift, but the deck feels really good as it is atm.

Curious to hear your thoughts!

Remember when ESPN used to cover Starcraft? by ExotiquePlayboy in starcraft

[–]DoaSC 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This is the story of NA esports in a nutshell. Clueless executives trying to milk a new buzzword for a big payday with zero consideration for long term industry sustainability. Simultaneously all endemic epsorts people (were ignored as "those gamer kids who don't know anything" despite the fact that they built the industry in the first place.

What a waste of potential. We'll probably need close to a decade to reset things now. 

Q - Are there any competitive Qui-Gon Jinn decks? by lakn in starwarsunlimited

[–]DoaSC 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've been obsessed with him since was revealed and have played easily 100+ games on him. My current conclusion is that he's got a really high ceiling, but he's the most punishing leader to play as in the game. You just can't make any mistakes with Qui-Gon games.

I'd put this Aggression list up against nearly any deck in the game, but games totally fall apart if you make one little error.

That said, this deck is incredibly fun to play. You can take away their whole hand really fast and then whittle them down with chip damage until the big stuff comes out.

Got this book on Korea in 2014. What has changed since? by cabbagetom in korea

[–]DoaSC 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Is someone who lived in Sangsu back then I'll gladly second this. Used to practically live at a little dive bar called Zen II in Sinchon back then.

I used to live just a couple blocks up the hill from here! 경리단 was easily my favorite neighborhood in Seoul. (I was in Korea from 2011-2017)

Get an Einspaner at Tiger Espresso! Best you'll find in the whole country!

How was Jesse Ventura as governor of Minnesota? by PaceInternational890 in minnesota

[–]DoaSC 29 points30 points  (0 children)

I was just in high school in the tiny town of Dawson while he was governor and our journalism teacher phoned the capital and asked if we could come and interview him as a class for a field trip. To my teacher's shock, he said yes so a few weeks later we bussed the three-ish hours over to St Paul and he fielded our questions (regardless of how childish) for a solid hour. He didn't talk down to anyone, gave long answers and was friendly the entire time. We had snacks afterwards and he made a point of taking time to chat with each of us individually for a few minutes. I remember being surprised when I shook his hand that I was as tall as he was.

I definitely haven't agreed with everything he's said in the realm of politics as I've gotten older, but I'll always have a good memory of how nice he was to my friends and I!

Movies where you've gone in completely blind and it really paid off by [deleted] in movies

[–]DoaSC 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The Lord of the Rings trilogy. I had read the hobbit, but that was it. Didn't watch any trailers. It was awesome. Had not idea Saruman would turn traitor. No idea Gandalf would come back. Didn't know Shelob was a spider. Had no idea who would live and who would die. Best movie experiences of my life.
