			This little fella is an underrated card that often is overlooked. With his average destiny, cheap deploy cost of 2, and ability to boost a starfighter, he may seem ok...for your dark space deck. However, his final ability is the best of his features. When at a scomp link during your draw phase, he allows you to look at the top three cards of your Reserve Deck for one Force. Now, although [[R2-Q2 (Artoo-Kyootoo){{!}}R2-Q2]]'s "peeping" ability is restricted to your draw phase, there are ways to take advantage of this. For instance, say you want your [[Ponda Baba]] to play Sabacc. It is your draw phase and you use one Force to look at the top 3 cards of your deck. The destinies [in order] are: 4, 3, and 1 (which happens to be [[Darth Vader]]). It isn't entirely a safe Sabacc hand, but you could really use [[Darth Vader{{!}}Vader]]. So, on your next turn you activate enough to draw [[Darth Vader{{!}}Vader]]! Hey, it's a dirty trick, but what do you expect from the Dark Side? Combos: [[R2-Q2 (Artoo-Kyootoo){{!}}R2-Q2]] + Sabacc OR Targeting with Weapons OR Freezing Captives OR [[Epic Duel]] OR Battle Destinies... The Energizer Astromech. Keeps going and going...
