Loving these. Only 2 things that I could see as improvement would be flipping Jay’s field so it isn’t upside down and then when a card is played bring it up on the left side of the battlefield for people that don’t know what the cards do
Good job on the content! Quick question to the boba player, turn 3, knowing the vader probably has a force choke, why not ECL the smuggler to kill the shoretrooper? You would've ready a 3rd ressource, kept your boba outside of reach and swung the base for 4 dmg😊
Could you gents do a video showing what your setup for recording these is like? I have yet to find a stand that gives me a decent angle to play on webcam.
If it was choosing a number that rolls you’re spot on as 7 is most commonly rolled with 2d6. However since it’s simply whether odds or evens are the total and not which odd or even, the choices are equal. 36 combos treating dice as separate items. Odds of rolling a : 1: none ; 3: 2/36 ; 5: 4/36 ; 7: 6/36 ; 9: 4/36 and 11: 2/36 for a total of 18/36 rolls which is 50%. Rolling evens would these odds : 2: 1/36 ; 4: 3/36 ; 6: 5/36 ; 8: 5/36 ; 10: 3/36 and 12: 1/36 for total of also 18/36 options or 50%
loving the games. Haven't tried them yet but what's your guys thoughts on playability of the 25 HP bases, they don't seem very useful as of right now, maybe as new sets come out or a revamp in later sets.
Me personally, they're very good but as vader I can't justify the 5 health simply because I need that extra 5 against aggro matchups especially against sabine
rolling odds/evens with two dice is 5 odds vs 6 evens, so a bit unfair to pick the starting player that way :P Edit: while this at first glance seems to make sense, I did the math and googled it to be sure, it's in fact still 50/50
We have a very large game store in my area & it’s very popular. There are MTG tournaments weekly that draw 30-50 players regularly. There are two GW miniature nights with over 20 players each night . This past Saturday they ran a Star Wars Unlimited tournament & 5 people showed up !!! SWU is dead on arrival in a game store that has been in business for over 25 years with a huge customer base . MTG is king for a reason.
Haven’t had that experience at all, sounds like you just have a very magic-centric community which is cool if that’s what you’re into. We talk a lot on our podcast about how to build a local community so check those out if you want to try and grow the game in your area
@@LiterallyUnplayable the consensus at the local game store was the fact that Fantasy Flight has a horrible track record supporting their games . The other thing was money . With a recession in process, it’s hard to get people to switch from their MTG money pit & into another money pit that has a bad company behind it . Who knows as time will tell , but SWU looks fun …. Will it survive FF & can people afford a new tcg/ccg ? Doubtful on both imo based on what Ive seen . There was fervor for Flesh & Blood locally , but is all but dead . I think card games suffer , because of the pay to win aspect of it & kids/young adults are struggling with money issues now that covid cash is over . SWU should have waited for inflation & interest rates to comedown before releasing. Americans are broke right now & their 500-10,000$ dollar MTG collection holds them to the one game rather than multi game decks. Within a few months SWU will cost 200-500 dollars to have a competitive deck & that will be it’s death .
This is so minor, but you should never do odd/evens with 2d6. It's not a true 50/50 since you cannot roll a 1, meaning you have a hight chance to win the roll by picking even.
In a couple prior comments this is shown to be an accurate way to do odds and evens. Not a big deal but many in our local group roll starting initiatives this way and don’t want anyone worrying about unfairness.
That does work fyi, it’s not the most efficient use of the card but it doesn’t prevent the unit from readying at the next regroup phase (which happens are the end of that round)
@italianobergs you can target units with cards even if it doesn't change the game state. Another example is using asteroid sanctuary on an exhausted unit just to get a shield on something. You can even use heroic sacrifice just to draw a card when all your units are exhausted and therefore can't attack. You can use Iden's ability even if no units were defeated, but restore no damage as a "soft pass." The list goes on...
Awesome! Crazy that Vader without getting any ramp at beginning still got the W. Definitely two decks that deserve a best out of 3 type matchup
Stay tuned! 😄
Love these guys. This game is fun and these videos help a padawan piece of bantha poodoo like me learn the ways of the force
❤️❤️❤️
Watching these games and Vader as leader & with Vader unit is just Beast mode!!
Loving these. Only 2 things that I could see as improvement would be flipping Jay’s field so it isn’t upside down and then when a card is played bring it up on the left side of the battlefield for people that don’t know what the cards do
I like the way it is because it feels like they are sitting across from each other playing the game
I like the idea of card overlays but flipping the board seems weird
I’m good with the board this way, and I’d take more matches than fewer but with more editing/overlays.
Not meant as a diss on what others do, but I find this series the easiest gameplay to watch for this game on TH-cam. Keep it up fellas!
Can you share what webcam/phone dual cam setup app/software you are using to do this from both sides? Thanks!
We’ll try and do a how-to video on our channel soon!
Dang those Force Throws! Crazy card to see work
Jay’s “Byeeee”’s are the best! 😻

It’s definitely a video we want to make soon!
@@LiterallyUnplayable awesome!
Force throw his last card to kill Boba. That was nasty.
I really like your tokens, I would like to see the buff tokens being used in the next video
@mike What tokens are you using and what is the black plastic thing under your Initiative token?
This is the token set from BTST on Etsy, been trying a bunch of different token sets for a big review video coming soon(tm)
Did you do odds or evens on two dice? That is heavily favored for odds since it’s much more like to roll 7 than anything else in two six sided dice.
If it was choosing a number that rolls you’re spot on as 7 is most commonly rolled with 2d6. However since it’s simply whether odds or evens are the total and not which odd or even, the choices are equal. 36 combos treating dice as separate items.

Rolling evens would these odds : 2: 1/36 ; 4: 3/36 ; 6: 5/36 ; 8: 5/36 ; 10: 3/36 and 12: 1/36 for total of also 18/36 options or 50%
@@FrankNicodem oh! Cool! After I posted I thought about the possibility that this was the case but it felt so unlikely. Thanks!
Where do you get that AT-AT playmat
It was exclusive to TwitchCon but I was able to pick one up on eBay a few months back

The 25 hp bases are VERY good, in these videos we’re using them, and we probably use them 90% of the timr
@LiterallyUnplayable yea they are lol, I just don't use them with vader anymore because of green bean
@unboundjackal totally fair, but ecl is just too hard to give up 😅
Energy Conversion Lab is insane.
How do you pass, then play a card? I thought passing ended your phase.
Passing only ends the action phase if your opponent also passes or takes initiative
I'd just like to throw one more vote in for Bo3 matches. Beyond that, keep it up.
We have 2 more games of this match up coming :)
In the future you may see BO3 in a single video.
Come on, Jay. You gotta put Mike in his place one of these times.
Oh just you wait lol
LET HIM COOK!
Hi Mike, My husband wants that At-at mat. Where can he get one? :)
Hey! It was exclusive to TwitchCon and I was able to grab mine of eBay a while back, so I’d keep my eye out on there in case another pops up!
@@LiterallyUnplayable , Cool! Thx for the reply:)
lol that tap :D

Hahaha the more you know 😅
@@LiterallyUnplayable well it's just a friendly game anyway right 😉
Yes but it’s still a 50/50. Each number doesn’t have the same probability of coming up.
@@kevinconstantineau5321 you are right, I didn't think about that.
How do you feel about bobas matchup into sabine?
Personally I have seen Boba win over Sabine about 55-60 % of the time (maybe 25 ish games?). Your local meta can vary a lot..
We’ll have to try it and see!
I love these!
Do you guys just house rule partial mulligans? I thought the official rule was having to mulligan your whole hand..
We do mulligan our whole hand Jay likes to say “I’ll put this back…” or whatever but he means put it into his resources
@@LiterallyUnplayable that would explain why it’s always 2 cards, lol. Thanks for the explanation!

Day 1 of asking for Cassian Gameplay
Hahaha we’ll see what we can do!
That cartel spacer gaff was hard to watch. 😢
He still crushed me 😂
So was no good to me dead on an exhausted unit
