This is the deck I went 9-0 with on 8/12/18 at the Millennium Games Store Championship tournament in Rochester, NY. There were ~20-25 people at the event.
I was honestly not expecting this deck to be that competitive. It is a very consistent deck that does most of its work with its character dice, but I'd had less than or equal to a 50% win rate in our local store meta in Hamburg, NY (WNY Gaming).
- Round 1 - eCassian/eFinn2 - Win
- Round 2 - eGrievous/Royal Gaurd -Win
- Round 3 - eGrievous/Royal Gaurd -Win
- Round 4 - eLuke3/eHando -Win
- Round 5 - eTalzin/eDooku2 -Win
- Top 4 - eCassian/eFinn2 from round 1 - 2-0 Win
- Finals - eGrievous/Royal Gaurd from round 3 - 2-0 Win
The round 5 mirror match was definitely the closest and hardest game of the event. The match went to time and my opponent was up on damage, but he knew I had a Witch Magic in hand to potentially bring damage to a tie and I had more cards in deck. He pitched his last card in hand to try to re-roll into lethal but came up short. My Witch Magick only healed me for 2 (Force Speed was one of the 3 revealed cards), so he would have won on tie breakers had he kept the card in hand.
In round 3 and the finals I faced the 11 year old son of the guy I beat in round 5. He is an excellent player and came within a hairs breadth of beating me round 5, using two Tactical Mastery to try to roll a fully loaded General Grievous into lethal before I finished him off. Luckily for me he came up just short. In the finals he had the bad luck of drawing no mitigation in one game, and no upgrades in the other and I was able to win fairly easily.
His deck is here.
There were mill (eYoda/Cassian/Anakin) and vehicle decks at the event, but I was lucky enough to dodge them.

The 1-of's are more based on what I have in my collection (I'd classify myself as mostly casual). I'm not sure I'd want to run another Ancient Lightsaber due to it's even cost. I might run 2x Dagger of Mortis in place of the Heirloom Lightsaber, but maybe not in light of Flames of the Past. The only mill deck I've played against so far was a Plokoon/Partisan/Partisan deck and I lost decisively. I was only able to take one Partisan off the board before being milled out. While that loss was with an inferior version of the deck, (I replaced 2x Bardottan Sphere with 2x Lightsaber Throw before the tourney), I don't think this deck would do well against 3-wide mill. It has no way to get rid of Anakin's Podracer and isn't really burst-y enough to take Yoda or Cassian off the table round 1, and aside from the 1-of the Ancient Lightsaber, it doesn't have any anti-mill tech. If I was facing 3-wide mill, I'd mulligan hard for Force Speed and put it on Talzin. That would force them to use removal on the force speed die or allow me to force speed into a Dooku activation, which can be nasty. My kill order would be Anakin > Cassian > Yoda to turn off the pod racer, second chances, and easy pickings as soon as possible. Finally, I think Unyielding and/or Frighten has a place in this deck to get around Force Illusion and shields. Force Speed special into Dooku activation into Unyielding could be brutal, especially if there are Talzin ranged die still in the pool. |

All that said, I think this deck is well positioned against the type of high aggro decks that have more of a chance against 3-wide mill. |
Congratulations on your SC Win!
I would love your feedback on how well this list would work against the 3-wide mill deck.
I see you run 1-of's for Dagger of Mortis, Ancient Lightsaber, Heirloom Lightsaber and Force Wave - is this for protection against Flames of the Past?
