As somebody who's just getting into the game but not new to TCG in anyway, this video was great! Gives me an understanding of what people are doing currently and some strategies people are going with. Super helpful when investing in my first few cards/decks. Thank you! Can't wait to get into the competitive play :D
I love how you really leaned into Iden and used your standing in the community to prove her viability and worth in meta. When I published my very early version of the “Sabine Killer” deck (seeing the potential against Sabine at that time) shortly after she was revealed, the early consensus was she was a trash leader - wow how times have changed! Good stuff 👍
A lot of familiar faces from Destiny Worlds are surfacing again and that brings great memories. Still have my Hyperloops playmat I got from winning a match x Joe!
I've been playing a krennic version of Iden control. I don't have any vaders, so I've just been playing into relentless, walker, and just put an Avenger in there. Kinda made it my own, put 2 search your feelings to get cards I need late game. Gideon has been added, he pairs well with energy lab. Allowing me to get counters on other units. I didn't want to copy the meta, and it's been a lot of fun:]
Well done. Just ripped two boxes so gonna try to build the Boba Meta deck. Did get the Legendary Hyperspace Boba, two Leader Hypers, and a Han Solo showcase. No Legendary Vader unfortunately.
@@SWU_KTOD Thanks, yeah the first box I opened was really solid. Two Legendary Bobas hyperspace and base and the Han Solo showcase. Seems like decent value for about 100 dollar
The only suggestion I would make on the iden deck is removing the 1 main decked Traitorous and putting it in your sideboard and main decking 1 "Search your feelings" instead. I do understand that by removing traitorous for this you are missing out on a possible body but 1-of in a deck is not really viable unless the card can make sense. Since search your feelings is a tutor, it basically adds to anyone of the other cards in the deck (acting like a duplicate) which makes it act as a better 1-of. Also, in order to make room in the sideboard for the 2nd traitorous (total 2 in sideboard) you can remove any one of the cards you run 2 of that you feel is the weakest in your sideboard since if you do side in the 1 copy (meaning you removed the other copy) the "Search your feelings" can act as a secondary copy of the sideboarded card. plus, it is 1 less mana
Thanks for the suggestion. These are really just a guide for people to go off of and play what they want, but I'm sure people will appreciate the consideration of SYF
I was wondering if the old Hyperloops fellas were getting into this reimagined Destiny game. Good to see you back at it. I will be a filthy casual in this game. Now I know what to watch out for though. Be well Bobby. 🤘
I’ve been pretty hyped about this game. Luckily got ECL in my prerelease and it did amazing w Vader. I’m gonna try to make Boba midrange and collect the rest of what I need to finish it
I actually prefer leia aggro to Sabine. It’s like 90% the same deck but I much prefer her ability since it helps you get initiative and defeat opponents units before they have a chance to use them. I think that boba green is just the best deck flat out. I don’t have any experience with iden which is its counter but I really like both boba and leia with the energy conversion. My two favorite builds so far.
I've been running a Boba aggro deck and killing it against the starter decks. I need to add these to the ai and play against them and see how it holds up.
The green is definitely the best but the red provides counterplay as you can tarkintown what they ambush in. There are some viable decks running the Tarkintown that we will cover.
From one that likes to play card games but aint that good to build the decks. This is helpful. Feel free to make more simmilar content. Subbed to follow
Great to see you sharing your knowledge! I appreciate the video! You mentioned a league - can you share a link to access it, or the discord server where I could get more info about it?
Hey Ira! If you scan some of the similar comments I posted the online league link in a bunch. Having some mobile service issues ATM so I can't relink just now but shoot me a DM if you can't find it
What would u play as a alternative for darth vader in the bobba deckz I have the whole deck but the vader and don’t wanna spend almost fir three of them
I haven't tested this yet but I've been telling people they could go a little more aggro, use mercenary company in the Vader spot and use some four power guys like gammo guards and swoop racer to make your Overwhelming Barrages hit for 6 quicker
Great video, was looking to play Boba Fett as he is my favourite bad guy. Also what to play Chewie as his a favourite too, but i feel at the moment hes better in twin suns format
Hi! I have a few questions: How do you decide what cards to make your resources? I know it depends on your hand and your draws, but are there cards that you are quicker to resource than others? Also, with Iden, her card states “heal 1 damage from your base” if your base is at full health can you gain extra HP? Thanks for the video! I have only played prerelease and watching this has helped me understand the game a lot better!
Thanks for the questions. Resource decisions are hard and usually matchup dependent but if you have something you think won’t impact the game or a redundancy of drops I’d start there. Keep practicing and you’ll get the hang of it. We’ll cover that in more depth hopefully soon. For iden she does not get extra HP over the base
You are allowed a 10 card sideboard to alter your deck in between games of a match. Your deck has to go back to the original list in between rounds but after games 1 and 2 you can use the sideboard cards to help fight different strategies.
I'm working on an actual control deck right now that runs no units. Curious if anyone else has tried a real control deck yet with no creatures in it. We have enough removal and card draw etc to pull it off I believe with Sabine leader as your win con. Blue base. And all events
Love the content and yes call me crazy haha ...but... Krennic > Iden (1 turn earlier play that is out of range of Takedown...) Leia > Sabine (Action efficiency IS huge and Leia 9/10 will threaten lethal a turn earlier than Sabine because of her leader ability you lose ECL but it isn't needed against other aggro decks especially) Boba > than all - Boba Green just slaps... that is all Cheers
To be honest it's great to be able to have these early debates about the meta because the developers and design of the game is so well balanced. It's rare to have such a good game that comes down to the "pilot" rather than the "This is the only deck to play to win..."
playing at my shop today, I pretty much built the control deck, without seeing this list. The vader is gonna be a hard one to acquire, I've seen 3 in 2 cases so far.
I thought the green land was the best because it gave you a free unit. Unfortunately all it gives is ambush, which is good, but 5 cost to your base is hard to make up for
@@AlejandroLopez-zq7bz unfortunately Leia is really bad into green Sabine. It's not unwinnable but very unfavored in our testing. That's honestly why we switched to green Sabine
Great video thanks! If I may ask, where could this be played online? So far I only played the pre release event and some force table against AI, would love to find out more about the leagues etc.
Do you have any ideas of how you could possibly replace Vador in the Iden deck ? With whom ? Because i don't have him... I think the boba fett is irreplencable in the boba deck ? Because i have the same problem. I'm also missing K2SO for the Sabine deck, any suggestions on units to replace it?
When you say "online league" @ 6:50 how does one play in this? Is there an app or something where I can face other people online? I would really like to be able to play against other people, but as far as I knew nothing like that existed (outside of in-person tournaments).
I'm a bit new to this but what do you mean by sideboard? I did the pre release event and we didn't have anything of that. Is this just for constructed or something else?
It’s interesting how aggro is always the “cheap” deck to build. And mid range and control piles will have you taking out a 2nd mortgage. I’m a little bummed by ECL honestly. It’s clearly the best base and it’s not even close. Sabine yellow has cool tricks but you don’t get ECL. This isn’t to say ppl won’t play off ECL ever just that you really have to find something very powerful to want to try.
I have been playing green Boba with the cards I own. 97th is SO GOOD. I did win the first prerelease tournament with Blue Boba. But I have only been playing a common 30 HP base. Is the single ambush really worth it to lose 5 HP?
Can you really play Boba Fett while your leader is Boba Fett!? Both are unique, aren't they!? So you're supposed to control only one at a time. Which is always your leader. Or am I missing something!?
I abhor that all new tcgs now have DAY 0 META shenanigans, sure energy conversion lab is good but you're shoving in green to justify its existence, it makes that aggro deck actively worse. Just play double red and win with the give everything raid 2, it's much faster.
I appreciate the feedback but you have it backwards. The green is to turn out ambush overwhelm units into burn spells, and gives us battlefield marine and a 4/3 sentinel. Rallying cry is too slow in a race, bc other decks will get to 25 faster than you can attack with everyone and control decks are actively keeping your board size small which makes rallying cry bad there too. I'm sorry you hate a DAY ZERO META but we've been playing for months.
Bobba will be banned SOOO quickly he's broken beyond belief, he has more stats on turn 5 (11 total) than any other 5 cost leader (which are 9 total), he's even better than some 6 costs. He's just too much.
@@SWU_KTOD Just stats wise there's something wrong with boba, some decks can handle him depending on RNG, but just the stats and effect alone need an errata or ban imo.

I’ve been pretty hyped about this game. Luckily got ECL in my prerelease and it did amazing w Vader. I’m gonna try to make Boba midrange and collect the rest of what I need to finish it
I love that! And I'm jelly of your ECL! I still need to find one
Looks fun I'll probably test boba I got lucky to pull 3 Vader's in my prize packs

i´m so hyped to play this game really
It’s a lot of fun. Very back and forth but the games can be very quick.
Oh sh*t here it is!. You said you were posting it… I still want to play my Thrawn deck, lol…
Same!
Play what’s fun. I’ve been playing Thrawn and he can slow down some decks. I hope they add some units you exhaust… cards
I've been running a Boba aggro deck and killing it against the starter decks. I need to add these to the ai and play against them and see how it holds up.
That's often what I do. The AI makes some really bad plays, but it can be good to understand how your deck works
So the green base was not balanced at all compared to the others. Thats all i learned from this video lol. I just wanna play grixis
The green is definitely the best but the red provides counterplay as you can tarkintown what they ambush in. There are some viable decks running the Tarkintown that we will cover.
My leia red deck plays tarkin town and not the green bass
interesting decks I would put the govenor in the Iden control deck
The great thing about control is you can make it your own! I’ve tried it off and on and it has its spots for sure. -Matty

No doubt!

Great video, was looking to play Boba Fett as he is my favourite bad guy. Also what to play Chewie as his a favourite too, but i feel at the moment hes better in twin suns format
Haven't seen many successful chewie decks because he deploys so late in the game but he's a beast with some upgrades

For iden she does not get extra HP over the base
First of all need to get that many cards… I opened 2 displays and 1 prerelease box… no luck…
The pulls are rough. I bought two boxes and spent another 300ish on singles
what means „sideboard“ ?
You are allowed a 10 card sideboard to alter your deck in between games of a match. Your deck has to go back to the original list in between rounds but after games 1 and 2 you can use the sideboard cards to help fight different strategies.

Yeah Vader is gonna take a minute for sure. Cool we came up with the same list!
Isnt Vader in the two-player starter kit?
@@TheWhills the unit vader
@@Maltross78 ooooh
I thought the green land was the best because it gave you a free unit. Unfortunately all it gives is ambush, which is good, but 5 cost to your base is hard to make up for
Yeah it's a little confusing at first but when you see how strong ambush can be it makes a lot of sense
It’s still one of the best!!!!
What about the Palpatine ramp deck?
Fun deck!
Which decks are better against Sabine? Thanks.
Chewbacca, iden (with practice), yellow boba are all good vs sabine
@@SWU_KTOD Leia aggro, with red, could be good against Sabine too? Thanks.
@@AlejandroLopez-zq7bz unfortunately Leia is really bad into green Sabine. It's not unwinnable but very unfavored in our testing. That's honestly why we switched to green Sabine
How do I know what I’m getting and how do I get these cards, is it just random boosters?
Boosters or buy singles
Great video thanks! If I may ask, where could this be played online? So far I only played the pre release event and some force table against AI, would love to find out more about the leagues etc.

Is there an online client to play other people ? Where are you getting the info/ data/meta? The game isn’t out yet
There is an online client called tabletop simulator on steam. People have been playing online for several months
Very cool, thanks for sharing. Where would I go to play in an online community? Ya’ll are using tabletop simulator?
There’s a community discord and then check out take the initiative. That’s the league people play in. It’s on TTS, yes!
Thank you!
Nice video!
Thanks!!
Is the boba deck not in swudb?
It's not our deck so I haven't seen a swudb link for it.
Nice ! would you have a Darth Vader Deck to suggest? I Started in the game with the precon and enjoy play vader for flavor
Vader is so cool. Stay tuned!
Great video,would two tubes be better than specforce solider though?
Give him a try but you definitely want to run a few spec soldier to push damage through a pesky sentinel
Thankw for the video 👊
Where can i play online / how can i get into the community abit? Thx
Hop into the public community discord! discord.com/invite/jrqtqUKaBg
I'm a bit new to this but what do you mean by sideboard? I did the pre release event and we didn't have anything of that. Is this just for constructed or something else?
In premier you play best 2 of 3. You have a 10 card sideboard and can make changes in between the games of a match.
@@SWU_KTOD thanks for the quick reply!
*palpatine looks on with a smile*
Do you need to pay the cost for the card you play with energy conversion lab's epic action?
Yes. Paying resource is part of the cost. I was confused by that when I first started.
Where do I go to say Krennic is better than Iden? 😅
Take a left at Endor and head straight for the moon with all the lights and the big green laser!
Can you use leader units in your main deck on the unit side?
No you can't. That would be spicy though.
@@SWU_KTOD yeah that would be spice melange! Thanks for clarifying that for me. 🙏

Why no 97th Batallion with Boba?
I have been playing green Boba with the cards I own. 97th is SO GOOD. I did win the first prerelease tournament with Blue Boba.
But I have only been playing a common 30 HP base. Is the single ambush really worth it to lose 5 HP?
I think it is often well worth the ambush. You're able to kill a unit before it can get buffed and do a lot more damage.
Can you really play Boba Fett while your leader is Boba Fett!? Both are unique, aren't they!? So you're supposed to control only one at a time. Which is always your leader. Or am I missing something!?
Different titled bobas so it's fine I believe
That’s the ticket!
No love for Leia red?
Yeah for a cause is broke.
Leia is great, and I loved it a lot until I I started using green Sabine and it became my aggro deck of choice
I abhor that all new tcgs now have DAY 0 META shenanigans, sure energy conversion lab is good but you're shoving in green to justify its existence, it makes that aggro deck actively worse. Just play double red and win with the give everything raid 2, it's much faster.
