Introduction

I know that the PPD for this platform just came out, but after my horrible performance with my ISB at TN States, I decided to go for an all out change and revert to RalOps. Luckily, I had just traded for this objective during pre-game mingling (a good trade with DrunkEwok), and had been thinking about how to pull it off all day. I don't have the card base to create the PPD at this point, so I came up with this. Hope you enjoy!

Strategy

If I move fast, I can flip in about three turns, maybe two if everything works right.

I can pull two locations per turn. I can pull the Executor quickly. If I move quickly and battle with my strong ground force, I can pull Imperials w/ Imperial Domination to help me defend. If the Emperor goes out quick, I can pull and deploy Royal Guards, and if not, I can pull ES Stormies to pull things off. Once I flip, I believe I can hold my own on Ralltiir and get any card that I want. That’s what I like about this deck…I made it so that I could pull many things to create a defendable base on Ralltiir.

This deck is aimed to drain heavily once the Emperor is out. Overseeing It Personally, Janus Greejatus, the sabers, and the flipside to RalOps all help me with the drain battles that will most assuredly ensue during tournament play.

My choice of red will help my critically injure the opponent. I saw a lot of ICBW stop my drains, and I need the drains to help come out on top in the end. Imperial Barrier will slow the beatdown, while All Power To Weapons and WYB will help me fend off space.

I already have some changes in mind. I want to drop a copy of Twi’lek Advisor for something more useful (don’t know quite yet). I would like to have Myn Keneugh instead of Kir Kanos, but I can’t do that just yet. I need the dual effects to make this deck a little more competitive. Perhaps a couple other non-uniques would be nice, but I don’t want to go bikers or wimpy troopers. Any feedback/ideas/criticism would be nice; this is my first attempt at a RalOps deck. Thanks again!
