What Makes Grievous Tik (2.0) 2.0

• Versions
• 2.0
• 1.0

This one started out by messing around with Elite General Grievous, pairing him with the only other Elite the points will (currently) allow; Bala-Tik. I've actually been quite impressed with the result, though it is somewhat of a glass cannon.

The power in the deck lies with Grievous' melee faces, with Gaffi Stick and Flame Thrower, supported by Bala's faces. On his own, Bala's dice essentially have two blanks ( and +2) but the other four faces are great, especially focus, which allows Grievous to optimise damage output. Holdout Blaster also gives a bit of action economy and makes Bala's ranged sides better.

I've also included a lot of cheap dice control and Hunker Down to try and up the longevity of the characters. This is the decks biggest weakness, as a low combined health of 18, and a massive target on Grievous means people will likely gun him down as fast as they can.

If you can rush down the first kill, the combination of Grievous likely taking a Weapon and Bala readying will probably put you far enough ahead to close out the game.

Comments and constructive feedback welcome. This might not be a super competitive deck but it is a lot of fun and can shock opponents with quick kills.

2.0 Updated some cards. Removed Commanding Presence and a couple of other dead cards, lowering the curve to be more aggressive and less resource intensive. Changed the Battlefield to Rebel War Room to help Grievous and Gaffi Stick.
