Reviews
- Jeff Hansen, "Mantellian Savrip", Neglected Card Series, Corellian Engineering Corporation (2000). Hansen calls it a mainstay of champion decks that is still overlooked, an insurance policy against heavy battle damage. "should be included in decks that are vulnerable to attrition and battle damage. In other words, nearly every deck."[1]
Combos
- Mantellian Savrip + BG-J38 Adds 2 to the destiny of each of your holograms and dejariks drawn for battle destiny or weapon destiny.[2]
- Mantellian Savrip + Brainiac Brainiac's forfeit is equal to the total number of cards in your opponent's hand, so he often may be sacrificed to the Mantellian Savrip to cover all battle damage and attrtion against you.
Rulings
- This card is NOT a hologram.[2]
- Global modifiers are applicable (e.g. Fondor reduces forfeit of Corvettes, Insurrection increases forfeit of Rebels).
- Cards forfeited from hand satisfy attrition, battle damage, or both as appropriate.
- Cards forfeited from hand must go to Lost Pile regardless of other game text (e.g. a character could not go to Bacta Tank; Liberty could not go to Used Pile).
