Snarky 1.0

• Versions

I've seen Snoke - Supreme Leader-Tarkin - Grand Moffin decks before and always had sort of a "meh" reaction to them, until I watched a T3 Gaming video that showed the deck making fantastic use out of Nexus Of Power, a card I had many of without any intention of using.

After seeing this tech, being able to turn the Nexus die to any side to get an essentially free proc off the Tarkin power action, I had to put my own stamp on it.

One of those stamps I think is Bendu's Lair - Atollon. Getting a free die into your pool to potentially use with Tarkin's power action is awesome. No resources required, and this deck claims as often as it doesn't.

From there, we need cheap upgrades/supports. The T3 deck used Fragmentation Grenade, and that has been great. I added in the Bardottan Sphere and Dark Counsel, both dice with very similar dice and multiple blanks, which can be used with Tarkin, same goes for Energy Bow. Multiple dice with multiple blanks is actually a good thing in this deck.

I've loved Cover Team. Even if you get two uses out of it, it's more than worth it.

This deck is almost trilogies-legal, but I love Manipulate. Being able to hinder your opponent while still getting use out of your blanks is just wonderful.

Otherwise, the mitigation suite is pretty straight-forward. Maybe I'd try to fit in Overconfidence for Recon, but I like the dual capabilities of Recon, using as both offense and defense. Then add in Stifle to prevent mitigation and Vigilance to make the enemy hurt.

This has dealt out consistent damage and been close in every game it's lost. I look forward to testing it more.
