Strategy

This deck works similarly to any other Scum deck. Track a Tatooine: Jabba's Palace into hand turn 1 or 2 (especially easy when using the 7 side of the objective). Deploy, fetch the Audience Chamber and start draining at T: DB + JP sites. None Shall Pass will keep Rebels away, aliens can be barriered. Most aliens on their own will not be able to draw destiny (thanks to Xixor), meaning character elimination via Trample is going to be key. Major retreival using Scum+First Strike. Search and Destroy+Vigos+Vengeance will make short work of any deck. No Emperor? Yup - negates Scum. Bad bad man. Don't need the destiny anyways. Interrupts take care of most of it, with a flipped objective adding to the attrition making most characters go away very easily. Luke is the biggest obsticle to this deck, especially Luke Skywalker, "The Machine" Jedi Knight causing most of the headaches. Biggest problem is immunity to attrition. How do you cancel it? 4LOM with gun/Release Your Anger. Biggest worry is going to be Profit (which will let you flip first turn), Agents, and Watch Your Step. Agents typically play Bo Shuda, hurting your chances of draining at the AC. Profit also presents a drain at the AC, but flipping the objective early is nice. WYS - just that annoying interrupt play from lost pile as well as the multiple destinies. Might be worth it to play a few Wounded Wookies, although Jodo+Guri will help.
