Strategy

First of all this deck crush QMC i don't really know why but....

I use it at my regional for the suprise beacause is not a commun deck.

This version is 4 cards different of the one I play at the Regional I (I change Visage for TPM Control & SFS fpr First strike, Master & combo for Master normal and Podracer coll. For Force field)

I start race and expand on the podrace arena this way I occupy 2 battleground (it's only the arena that are not a battle ground during the podrace) where opponent can'T battle me during all the podrace. Yes opponent can alter it or deploy an exterior site in the middle it's why I pack evasion cards. It's a tech I font on dectech but I don't remember who posted it.

First turn I normaly get :

one caracter that hold a site:

(Dr. Evazan & Ponda Baba, Emperor Palpatine x4, P-59, Janus Greejatus, Televan Koreyy, Grand Admiral Thrawn, or Blizzard 4)

and site

( Masterful Move, We Must Accelerate Our Plans x2, Masterful Move & Endor Occupation, Blockade Flagship: Bridge or Imperial Holotable)

Than I could race and flip first turn (always deploy the first watto from reserve) and track a high destiny card (or Force lighning or waato chance cube) on first turn.

Middle game : Honor is not a big problem because you occupy 2 battleground since the first turn. But You must do the maximum of damage rapidly because late game is difficult with this deck. Try to distrup is strategie with hit and run beat down. This deck active a lot of force (like 12 on your own) personnaly a always deploy the executor at his normal cost. Broken concentration is gold in this deck I use on my turn and on opponent turn !! with first strike it can be game breaker.

Late game : Try to hold podrace until opponent get only few card in hand and you get few cards in your lost pile. In late game when you don't have card that deploy on table you could return a hologram front the imperial holotable and use it with you're a slave.

Card explanation

Unsalvageable + This is some rescue = Protect my holotable and my card in my lost pile cancel some key cards ( alternative to fight power pivot ...)

Broken Concentration, First strike, Projective telepathy, You're a slave, Bad Feeling Have I+and battle order. All that card hurt the force pile of my opponent even if I give him 4 icons.

4x Palpy = Great destiny deploy on first turn to hold mos Espa very well.

Matchup

QMC: win every time even vs the QMC of Alexander Klamat do your game and don't over deploy because they escape all the time sense is a key card. Try to grab the Path.

WYS : Palace raider deploy +3 !!!! try to hold tatooine with your big ship (if you draw them) if not ...euh win the race and beat them your direct damage do the difference. Add his name his anakin for bad feeling I have if you have Wys in your aera.

Space: Start with something else like broken concentration instead of expand the empire and pack every body you get in your ship you win the drain race. And if the come to your site try to beatdown them.

TIGIH : kill luke with maul and avoid the beat with your evasion cards.

Podrace : Euh it could be a problem because I only pack 1x podrace collision a deck like LSC with high destiny is a problem. If this matchup is commun add another podrace collision .

LSC Try to set Resistance and do your game .

If you have question you can read my TR Kiriel at Ice plains Regional or E-mail me
