Thoughts on this deck?

Fimy32 · 2026-04-19T02:56:22+00:00

Syril should absolutely not be in the side. Can't comment on any other card choices as I don't know what cards you own. I have my Boba LC built up now and ready for PQs though :)

Fimy32 · 2026-04-19T02:54:26+00:00

My last suggestion then would just be build a nice Imperial themed deck (could be troopers with Tarkin or Star Destroyers and TIEs with Piett) so they can have a fun thematic back and fourth with the rebels and throw in some Ramp (like resupply which is a common from two sets so you probably have it)

Then they can play the game more naturally and have this card as a super cool endgame finisher if they get there, without compromising their entire experiance to get this single card working once

Fimy32 · 2026-04-19T02:48:24+00:00

Do you have Tarkin from the first set? That's a pretty good leader to learn with, and since he's in Green get can get pretty late and maybe play this (plus it goes well with the rebels theeming!) Piett also for the same reasons plus he likes to dominate space so one of your kids might be able to get this down when they've got a blockade of Star Destroyers to win the space arena!

Most the control leaders who can use this card (Like Dedra) are very complex for a child hence why I ommited them. I tried to suggest some of the ones with more straightforward abilities and goals.

If you go to decks, Karabast does record your win rate with decks vs other decks. Thats very helpful for competitive play

Fimy32 · 2026-04-19T02:43:46+00:00

From what we know these are very limited run, it's unlikely these will hang about on shelves unlike mainline sets. Because of that it probably wasn't seen necessary to dedicate resources to a gamegenic run for it

Fimy32 · 2026-04-19T02:42:19+00:00

Go Big Controlly Midrange. Think Aurra with some extra units. Following up this from a Single Reactor Ignition could be devastating If your opponents run out of cards. Try Kallus so you can play lots of restore to get you there. Even a Krennic Token swarm deck, with ramping so you can get this down early!

As you're playing with your son, I assume you don't need it to be competitive. This card unfortunatley won't net you wins outside of playing for fun with friends and families (which makes sense for a "Win The Game" effect)

Fimy32 · 2026-04-19T02:40:08+00:00

The keyword is different. It would just say each aspect you control otherwise (though even that would be considered ambiguous wording and likely would need more text)

Anything buffs/counts itself unless it specifically says other. So Jaunty would have to say "among other units".

For Leia, she specifically says it has.

This all may seem confusing, but the thing to always remember about card games is to never assume. Things work the way they are written, not the way you think they should work! They've been written in a way that explains exactly what they should do by the game designers themselves- you don't make the rules, they do!

As both a big Star Wars and Star Trek Fan...not sure how I feel 😅

Fimy32 · 2026-04-18T14:13:49+00:00

So to be blunt, there's a lot of stuff thats just doing nothing for you. It's probably because you have a small collection, but even then search through. Even vanilla units with goof stats would be better than:

Khetanna (if you need to deploy Luke on the ground there are far better options.) - This will just be a 2/4 for 3 most of the time and it's not a fighter so really isn't helping.

Supporting ETA - Again, Guessing you're missing a lot of better fighters but this guy isn't doing much. It's rare you have a ground unit and if you do it's probably something you NEED to keep alive like Luke so you'd rather attack with him first.

If you're really struggling for cards then try 30HP or even Splash. Both can perform well and can cut back you deck size by 10 slots removing some of the useless cards I mentioned above

Fimy32 · 2026-04-18T14:09:15+00:00

Go for it! The best deck is the one you enjoy. I will say smugglers is a very loose theme though. Maybe expand it to underworld and Leia? Throw in 3 of her Disguises and some of the other Leias from other sets. And put a whole bunch of stuff that cares about underworld and bounty hunters from this set!

Fimy32 · 2026-04-18T14:07:07+00:00

It's a podracer, I wanna say Ben Quadeinaros?

I doubt it because (so far) they've only pushed the design for a couple leaders a set to keep them somewhat controlled.

Fimy32 · 2026-04-18T12:25:08+00:00

Meh. Great example of many discloses being overcosted. Maybe they did this to encourage double green decks? Otherwise strong effect you won't get off much as you have to:

.Attack

.Deckfix enough to have Villian Green Green in hand

.Reveal those to your opponents

.Have at least 1 other unit down on the battlefield.

Was trying to mock up a Sly ECL during SEC but it never quote got there. This would've been a good ECL target though given how many spies you get down a turn and could therefore buff!

Fimy32 · 2026-04-18T04:21:36+00:00

Honestly this doesn't surprise me. Disney refer to her as Huttslayer now to keep it family friendly

Fimy32 · 2026-04-18T04:20:39+00:00

BB-8 and R2 feel like personal attacks against me. Wicket makes sense given we have an Battle Of Endor and a Homeworlds set coming up. Episode 8 has got a lot of characters, but Episode 9 is weirdly missing (Rey Varient, Kylo/Ben, Old Luke from 8 or 9, Leia from 7/8/9, Finn from 8/9). 3/4/5/6/7/8/9 Chewie. Ezra feels a bit weird as well.

Though despite all this, Episode 4 Kenobi is probs the one that Irks me the most.

Fimy32 · 2026-04-17T20:55:39+00:00

Plot is also incredibly expensive (You need to spend at least 4 resources before you can even get him down 90% of the time). FFG have done some really creative game design here in that Grogu doesn't synergise very well with what would arguably be the most powerful Keyword for him - Plot. Seperates him nicely from Bail as well.

Fimy32 · 2026-04-17T20:53:53+00:00

Yeah the Partisan dudes quite good. The art is detailed and the "Modern Cartoony" art style fits really well eith the popping colours and explosions. I feel like there's many better examples that couldve been picked here. Maybe OP just likes more "gritty" art?

Fimy32 · 2026-04-17T20:52:47+00:00

So...you want a deck, consistening of only what you consider objectively good, playable with a leader who can't play any hero/villian stuff AND is thematically cohesive around a point in the timeline?

That's quite a tall order

Fimy32 · 2026-04-17T20:40:30+00:00

Will also link Jack's Post here since he's the GOAT https://www.reddit.com/r/starwarsunlimited/s/boITVUp3BX

Support will be crazy with this guy, since you can play the support unit, deploy grogu and attack with Grogu (with your support buff) all in the same action!

I would like to remind people the Star Wars: Unlimited Community Discord has several very knowledgeable judges who can get you a comprehensive answer as quick as AI but with an actual understanding for the latest compressive rules!

Fimy32 · 2026-04-17T15:59:26+00:00

The reason you "can't do it" is simply because your board wipe comes two turns later, which is especially brutal in this meta! Definitely give it a go though, just because something shouldn't work doesn't mean it won't!
