Strategy
By Ted Sallis, Gold 4[1]
This place is strong with the Dark Side of the Force. For that reason it makes an excellent starting location for any Dark Side deck! It offers several advantages as a starting location. The two Dark Side icons mean better than average Force generation on your first turn and no Light Side icons to benefit your opponent.
Using this site as your starting location means you still get to go first but best of all it is practically impossible for your opponent to Force drain you here due to the Dark Side text "If your opponent has presence here, your Force icons are canceled". This can be a double edged sword as your opponent could put the squeeze on you early if they can control this site, but with the inherent difficulties of getting anything to Dagobah it is unlikely they will be able to negate your advantage before you have plenty of force flowing. Quick force generation and safety from Force drains, what more could you ask from starting location?
Plus when you flip it over at the start of the game you get to say "The Cave! Remember your failure at the Cave!" in your best Yoda voice! Neat fun, good times.
