A Thrawn In Your Side - 2-Die Control 2.0

• Versions
• 2.0
• 1.0

Oh hey look! A two-dice list! This is an updated list of my pre-EaW release deck build and an attempt at a villain control deck that strives to be a jack-of-all trades with regards to dice options.

I find the synergy with Darth Vader - Sith Lord and Thrawn - Master Strategist abilities to be super interesting. Not only for milling, Vader's discard ability allows you to get an early read on what your opponents deck and strategy might be, allowing you to strategically predict what Thrawn's ability will hit. Cards like As I Have Foreseen will give Thrawn the precision to remove their threats and Force Visionis a great end-of-turn card to play that gives you an immediate hit with Thrawn at the start of the next turn.

Great cards to have at the beginning are Lure of Power which will allow any of the many dice sides to hit harder, As I Have Foreseen, Force Vision, Force Choke & either of the Lightsabers. A bulk of the early to mid game is all about control. Take cards, disrupt resources and generally try to put your opponent in a tricky position where they can't afford to re-roll or play cards for fear of having them bounced with Imperial Inspection.

To end the games, use a bulked up Vader to execute massive damage bursts with Z6 Riot Control Baton, Shoto Lightsaber & Ancient Lightsaber. Alternatively you can add some brawn to the (brainy) Thrawn by equipping him with Z6 Riot Control Baton or Lightsabers.

That's all I'll say for now until I can start testing, but please feel free to chime in with recommendations for card additions/removal or any questions. Also, let me know if you feel this deck is competitive, casual or just plain trash. I feel at the moment it falls in the casual category... which is fine by me.

As a sidenote, should the Thraw/Unkar decks become a meta standard, might be worth finding a place for Abandon All Hope.
