Helmet on, helmet off - 2-2 at SC 1.0

• Versioni
• 1.0

Large healthpool with Guardian while still trying to be a fast hitting aggro deck. Best starting weapon is Electrostaff on Anakin as it keeps him cost effective and more consistent with damage. Holocron is there mainly for bluff if it rolls special with no valid targets in hand or free focus side as this deck runs melee weapons mainly. But it can also give Force powers to the guys in helmets. Note that Royal Guard cannot even have Force Illusion without Holocron special. Executioner + Holocron combo or using Manipulate is great for enabling Anger also, which is great against any slower deck - just wait for that damage dice to roll and then throw it back at their face. But having such mixed package has it´s drawbacks and can be inconsistent at times. I have too many one offs in this deck as well, so it definitely needs improvement.

Rounds at SC:

round 1: vs eYoda/Cassian/Anakin - loss

close game, we both were milled out thanks to my CQA plays and resolving discard sides from Mind Probe. But I made a mistake to not play Ancient on table or claim Imperial Palace - Coruscant myself.

round 2: vs eSnoke/eBala-Tik/Battle Droid - loss

Made some mistakes again and it went quickly downhill after Bala-Tik killed off my Guard (who I was not able to Force Illusion due to play restriction). I was going after Bala-Tik first of course, but was not quick enough about it and the redeploy guns served my opponent well.

round 3: bye

round 4: eHondo/Bazine/Nute - win

Mainly mitigated Hondo dice, killed him off early and then it was not hard to finish off Bazine and Nute.

round 5: eTalzin/Mandalorian/Mandalorian - win

As opponent went after my Executioner first I was able to Force Illusion him to stay alive quite long while I kept building my board state and killing Mandalorians. So in the end I had fully geared up Anakin against Talzin with just one upgrade. Two successful Anger plays helped very well also.
