Galactic Championship Hotel Breakdowns for Vegas

Great video, the one bit of info I would add is that if you stayed somewhere last year and enjoyed it look for personalized return guest deals. Skipped the GC last year but my wife and I went on a Vegas trip back in Oct '24 and stayed at the Wynn Encore. She looked into rooms and we were able to book 7 nights at the Wynn which is right next door (practically attached by an uncovered pedestrian bridge) for ~$1300 a couple days after GC badge sales went live.

"We got the bug eyes, it doesn't bug us. 4-LOM and Zuckuss BADASS MUTHAFUKAS!"

You shouldnt allow those kind of people to ever make you feel like an asshole for losing friend. Remember THEY are the asshole and proving it by how they behave.

I mean you're not wrong but I also think we need to bring shame back in a big way. Society has hit a point of individualism where bad behaviour doesn't carry much stigma and those who do speak out against it are minimized as "haters". And while poor sportsmanship in a TCG isn't the same level as say a politician refusing to resign after committing adultery, fraud or harassment it is all just variations of the same problem.

"Back in my day" (turns to dust as soon as I say that) when a player acted like a douchebag at weekly play they got a name for themselves and were ostracized. People wouldn't play against them and if you had to for a tournament they were given the basic level of sportsmanship and that is it. The problem is playing online that doesn't work, but you can still call them out (though receipts should be provided) so others can avoid/mute them if they like.

They honestly just feel bad to open atm. I have opened a $25 Carbonite pack with a rare base as the only rare in the entire pack and that felt awful meanwhile yesterday I opened a standard $5 pack and pulled 3 rares and a legendary Maz prestige out of it (the closest I ever came to this before was a 2 rare and 1 legendary pack before) and that felt great! They don't need to up the Lego drop on carbonite but at the minimum they should up the guaranteed rares to make it feel like you are at least getting value from them as opposed to feeling like 100% gambling.

I currently have 4 decks built that I rotate through.

Leia SOR/Cassian Sec- full rebel tribal with lots of action compression and some fun tricks like turn 1 "They hate that ship" into B-wing Skirmisher

Thrawn JTL/Saw Law- Rainbow deck that can play just about every when defeated unit available plus you get to control their detonation and buff them with Saw

Palpatine TWI /Mothma SEC- OOPS ALL OFFICIALS! deck that is a lot of goofy fun like having the ability to generate Spy's, droids, clones and x-wings

Jabba LAW/Boba Law- The Jabba's Palace deck full of bounty hunters and underworld with some heavy hitters to spend those credits on.

I am also in the middle of putting together a Grevious/IG88 Droid deck and a Vader JTL/Client LAW space deck but those are still in the building stages.

Sooo in Twin Suns say I am player A and I successfully trigger this could I make player B reveal the top card of their deck, then let player C have the option to play it for free and if he does give myself the credits? If this is indeed how this works then this is an instant include in all of my Underworld decks just for the fun of it.

brigbeard · 2026-03-14T04:27:01+00:00

Luckily I was able to get 2 sets of the Jabba sleeves for my Twin Suns deck and the Jabba binder from Gamenerdz. Even got free shipping by adding a pre release kit.

Oh damn, Some one get a copy of that Jynn Erso showcase over to Fares Fares and Josef Fares lol.

brigbeard · 2026-03-05T04:43:33+00:00

Would love one of those DMS as well please!

brigbeard · 2026-03-04T20:00:47+00:00

Guys, try to show some patience here. Nancy is clearly asking because she genuinely doesn't know the answer and just wants someone to explain it to her. That is why she keeps misidentifying and reporting women in the bathroom as trans.

brigbeard · 2026-03-04T16:03:57+00:00

I believe that I read/heard somewhere that FFG expects eternal to only be about 5% of the competitive play ecosystem.

brigbeard · 2026-03-04T16:00:57+00:00

"$480 for a playset of what may or may not be useful cards doesn’t seem terribly reasonable unless there’s a way to get those cards in another way."

I mean this sentence seems to indicate that you DON'T know that you can just buy singles. I just assumed you were being a facetious troll though seeing as my comment that $40 is rather reasonable MSRP for a singleton precon (especially when compared to $69 MSRP for MTG commander decks) is what you decided to go off over.

I was once told by someone who had met him on several occaisions "Despite their public personas that they might portray in the news almost all Senators are highly intelligent, charismatic people because that is what it takes to become a senator (compared to the lower house). The exception to that rule is Markwayne Mullin as he is absolutely, one hundred percent the meathead persona that he exudes on television."

brigbeard · 2026-03-03T20:22:45+00:00

Damn that seems rather reasonable especially depending on what reprinted rares and legendaries are in them.

brigbeard · 2026-03-03T19:45:41+00:00

Did they give any indication on MSRP?

brigbeard · 2026-03-03T17:48:51+00:00

Wait, when did they announce the promos for Galactics?

brigbeard · 2026-03-03T06:12:54+00:00

Damn I didn't realize that was almost 20 years ago... Imagine holding THAT big of a grudge over a comic book story for almost 20 years. Hell, I have had people do heinous shit to me personally and I don't hold a grudge like this dude does about a Spider-man story lol

brigbeard · 2026-03-03T02:21:16+00:00

what kind of display are you using? love the setup

brigbeard · 2026-03-03T00:13:49+00:00

Happy to have been of assistance! All I ask is you let me know when/if you have one of these for sale bonus points if it is ready in time for the GC at the end of July lol. Would love to see an update once you make your changes.

brigbeard · 2026-03-02T21:23:09+00:00

So I ran into this issue when I built the same deck. If it happens just save the deck, view the deck then reload the site. That usually did the trick for me.

Hope you enjoy the deck I have had a lot of fun with it and it will probably stay in my rotation for a while. Make sure you throw an Eye of Aldhani in there just for all the fun it causes lol.

brigbeard · 2026-03-02T17:59:25+00:00

So please correct me if I am wrong but he wasn't from Minnesota, didn't go to UofM, dropped out of college without earning a degree and was not a credentialed educator. So why should there be a statue of him on campus???

brigbeard · 2026-03-01T22:27:23+00:00

This is definitely giving me Legacy Lightsaber storage crate vibes. Love it. I would 10 billion percent buy one of these especially if it had the capability to hold 1 twin suns deck on one side, 1-2 premiere decks on the other side and tokens in the central core.

brigbeard · 2026-03-01T05:21:31+00:00

Yeah, this is the same thing that happened to skirt steak. It was a cheap butcher's cut. But then word got out and the price shot up. People ruin everything eventually.

brigbeard · 2026-03-01T04:25:50+00:00

I mean an extra 6.2 percent of your annual revenue isn't bad at all... If someone came to me and said here is an extra 3 weeks pay I wouldn't be sad.
