I'd recommend using Ezra Bridger instead of Rookie Pilot. He gives you access to lots of great yellow cards and still has nice damage output with less blanks.

but he cant it's a trap

How has this been in testing?

I notice you are running Rearguard but only have 6 total dice with the ability to show a shield.

Just curious on that and it's a one-of.

@RSanchez@TheChanceCube Hey man! It hs been doing pretty well actually! I uploaded a couple videos showcasing it. I was very surprised at its potential. I haven't played it against some of the more hyper agro decks yet but it's still pretty sick. Rearguard is one of those cards that I want to be awesome and I think it hs potential. If you roll 2 or 3 shields then its awesome right? However, with how slow this deck is, I'm not sure it's great, Heat of Battle however could be AMAZING.

@Nate0026 Yeah, I am considering trying to swap to Ezra for sure. I just haven't tried it yet :) definitely opens up a lot of options!

@Double Blanks Gaming- Jay I will put this list together and give it a few goes and let you know how it plays.

@Nate0026 I think adding Yellow with Ezra Bridger - Force-sensitive Thief is a good idea which I agree with. I think the mitigation cards that Yellow has will bring in some needed help.

I would consider adding wingman. It lets you go a bit faster.

@Double Blanks Gaming- Jay I just finished a 3 game set vs eCad/ePhasma2 and had very little issues. 2/3 games I had a loaded Rookie Pilot with 3 guns.

I used Hit and Run followed up with It's a Trap! to deliver two killing blows to Cad Bane - Vicious Mercenary in every game.

I never used Fortuitous Strike or Rearguard. I didn't see many shields.

I'll test more.

@RSanchez@TheChanceCube that is awesome man! Sounds super successful! Yeah I pulled out the rearguard, and slotted in heat of battle! I've actually changed it quite a bit, still tinkering with stuff. Added all- in, and really considering a second rearm, it really saves you some resources and helps get out the IQAs. Fortuitous strike can be super devastating mid to late game, has super high potential. The hit n run + it's a trap combo is just gnarly man. I'm glad you've had fun with it tho and have been able to do well! I really really like this list and hope it can be competitive. I've really really considered trying Ezra instead but having that extra die for it's a trap late game is nice. I'm going to try Ezra on video and see how it goes. I reckon it'll help with new Kylo as well.

@Double Blanks Gaming- Jay So what does your updated list look like? What did you take out for All In and for the second Rearm?

What about adding Rend? Imperial Inspection may be very annoying. Also, I don't know what is better, 2x IQA or 2x A180 :/ Add both will be too much.

@Zonexiryeah, imperial inspection can be super annoying but haven't played against many people running it anymore. but for sure, inspection wrecks this list big time. @RSanchez@TheChanceCubeso no logistics, 2 rearms, took out rearguard and added heat of battle, and took out defensive position and added all-in.

Just posted my most recent itteration.

@RSanchez@TheChanceCube Have you tested it anymore?

Yes I have. I will test it out more tonight for my local event and post notes for it. It did lose to Crime Lord when playing against Thrawnkar.

@Double Blanks Gaming- Jay I got 3rd and went 2-1.

Round 1 Thrawn/Phasma2p

No real issues here since the player is fairly new. I did 9 damage on Phasma turn 1. It wasn't pretty.

1-0

Round 2 ePalpatine

This game wasn't close but I lost. I was dealing mass amounts of damage. I had to chew through a 7 point Force Illusion and had 9 damage showing on the field but could not roll a non modified damage Die on Poe.

He ended up winning. I felt like I should've won the game but poor dice rolls are part of the game. I did learn to not play two Overkill on Poe though. Won't make that mistake again:)

1-1

Round 3 eVader/Phasma2p

This matchup between these two decks was critical for testing. Damage output from his deck was tough to deal with. I got Honor Guard late and wasn't able to really use it. Heat Of Battle stayed in my hand and I could never really use it due to his mitigation. In the end I wore him down with Poe. He did go after Rookie Pilot after Rebel Trooper died so I feel that was a mistake.

2-1

Will test more tonight. At times I would have loved an All In because I feel if I had that in the ePalp match I could've won even with poor dice rolls.

I think two Heat of Battle may be overkill and Fortuitous Strike is good in theory but it never just puts me ahead.

I'm thinking maybe -1 Heat of Battle and -1 Fortutious Strike for +2 All In would make a difference.

Your thoughts?

@RSanchez@TheChanceCube Hey man! Yeah So I actually updated the list :) I took out the fortuitous strikes, logistics, rearguard, and 2 all-in are definitely in the list :)

I might have taken out one of the Poe Blasters too.

Sounds like you did pretty decent :) I think that Palp is just overall better this set and he might be a tough match up because the lack of mitigation unfortunately :/ I think you have to try and do as much damage as fast as possible against him turn one and two using it's a trap or heat of battle after he resolves. Can't play the late game/ tons of guns style.

@RSanchez@TheChanceCube Interesting enough, my only loss with this deck is against palp. He got off 2 indomitables and a rise again. I was doing a ton of damage too.
