Vader/Raider deck that has been performing well for me lately. Only really played two tourneys with it and gone 6-2 total, but play testing has been showing promise against a lot of other decks. Losses were to a Jabba/Unkar Crime Lord deck that Crime Lorded Vader round 1 then Prized Possessioned Raider then Crime Lorded him. Other loss was to Poe/Maz that I was able to nuke Maz down round 1 then came down to who could deal the last damage and Poe had a good roll.

Idea is to dish out as much damage as fast as possible. This is my newest iteration. Previous one had 1 Mind Probe and 1 Force Throw instead of Force Illusion and Swiftness. Illusion mainly for decks like Poe/Maz who can dish out pretty consistent 3-4 on one die plus it can give Tusken Raider a little more time on the table. Didn't find myself using Probe and Throw too often so thought Swiftness might make it faster when combo-ed with Lightsaber Throw, Fast Hands, Sith Holocron. Haven't tested this version yet but probably won't play much different than my previous.

Favorite combo to drop, if the hand and roll is right, is Sith Holocron on Tusken Raider, hit the Sith Holocron and either discard or use Fast Hands to resolve, pay 1 for Force Speed, resolve that for two more action, roll Darth Vader - Sith Lord, resolve or use Bait and Switch to get more damage on the table and another action and swing for the fences like a juiced up Barry Bonds! Combo, if perfect, only costs one resource which leaves you with a resource to resolve Tusken Raider 3/1 side or save to drop Backup Muscle for one more damage then claim.

Cards I've been thinking of putting in are probably Doubt, Manipulate, One-Quarter Portion, and High Ground for a little bit more dice control but haven't decided what I'd take out to put any of them in.
