When FFG released their most recent update, I was super excited to see that Aayla was back to her printed cost. She was always my favorite Jedi (gee, I wonder why?), and her card had been a power character for me, winning me many a game in the past. I'd been struggling to find a good, aggro, competitive deck pretty much since Convergence was released, so I started looking for viable pairings with her. When I realized the destruction she could rain down with Padme, I knew that was the one. Keen eyes will notice that I could have paired these two before the reset, but Aayla had been out of the public eye for a while, and I hadn't given her much thought. Regardless, I was ready to test. My friend Andrew, a top tier player who consistently wins big tournaments (or at least gets top 4), loved the concept and execution. Originally, I tried to make this as fast and heavy as I could, but he reminded me to just go slow and steady. As for the Origins tournament itself, I can't remember all my opponent's and what decks they were using. I will say that my dice loved me, and rolled awesome. I had the right removal almost 95% of the time, and managed to read the board and get Target Acquired down on the right characters every time. Then, the final match-up, against a cat named Jack. Jack had a Yoda/Leia deck, and seemed to have the right cards all the time. My dice took a dump on me and felt like giving me blanks as much as possible, and my removal didn't help as much as I would have liked. Still, it was a fun game, and lasted much longer than I expected it to. All in all, it was a fun tournament and I had a great time with this deck. Not many people were expecting it, and I think we can all agree that Target Acquired is vicious when you have 10 total indirect showing.

Love to see Padme2 decks do well, she's such a great character. Have you had any trouble with the starship getting discarded? It seems like the deck gets taken down quite a notch if you come up against Vandalize. |

Have you messed with the Yoda variant at all? Early on in the convergence release I had Yoda/Padme do some good work. I'm just curious how it stacks up if you tested it out at all. My only testing was in a local that doesn't always follow the meta. Although it handled Palp/Watto and Vader easily enough (not the biggest threats out there). |
I assume the early play is to use Armored Reinforcement to pull Padmé Amidala's Royal Starship then flood the pool with focus sides? What do you mulligan for? I love this deck idea. |

I wish I'd played against this deck, would have been fun! A couple of questions: did you consider Mortar Team, and how useful were your Bubble Shields? |
In general this seems like one of the best options against mill in the current meta
