I really like this deck ! Againt Rainbow FN, do you think it could be worth to have something like Lying in Wait on the deck to discard the choke hand if they use Boundless Ambition. Do you think Bait and Switch si an auto include or it si possible to keep only one ? Thanks !

Great deck man. I've been running something very similar for a while now except that I run 2x Rocket Launcher instead of Z6 Riot Control Baton. Do you just like the consistency with the re-rolls with Z6 Riot Control Baton, or is it the redeploy that gives it the edge over Rocket Launcher?

Great job and write up! I play this team also but i feel my matchup with Poe/Maz is my worst not easiest. What do i need to do different?

@Chris69 I have found bait and switch to be pretty essential. I was playing without it for a while and was having trouble bursting my opponents sometimes. As for lying in wait thats a very interesting idea. I think you could try substituting it out with sabotage if you wanted to try it out

@MurseKevinRNredeploy is huge, the continuous money cost of rocket is something i don't always want, and the reroll and resource side on the Z6 make bait and switch and salvage stand a good combo with it.

@GamerkidThe wording is a little funny, but I did not mean it was an easy matchup, but that it is easiest of the hard matchup like playing vs Funkar or Rainbow FN decks. This might also just be my personal experience as well.

Very similar to my deck list. Sabotage is an awesome tech. Personally, I like to run 2x The Best Defense for those situations in which I win the battlefield roll-off and choose theirs, then put both shields on Stormtrooper and remove two of their Big Guy dice for only one health loss to trooper. I also cut Jetpack entirely, and instead run 1x Rocket Launcher for those Imp Discipline into 4-damage plays. Quick question- what do you think of Collateral Damage as a tech card against FN/damage dice that cost resources?

@hardypatwith shields I have found that phasma is often very vulnerable to poe/maz and FN and even emo kids nuking it and usually put at least 1 if not both on phasma to start the game. I am not sure what i would remove for collateral damage. Jetpack is there since all its sides are actually somewhat useful and good synergy with imperial discipline and way cheaper than rocket launcher.

My list is unbelievably similar to this. I toss a Jetpack for a second Best Defense, though. That and I've been using Probe in place of Friends in Low Places lately since most people don't see it coming and I have a tendency to grab really important cards that FILP would miss (Rise Again, for example)

@Dave Sharona cool to hear, ive not been a huge fan of probe personally and having full hand knowledge alone has its own value. Because of salvage stands I also don't usually run into problems with people running expensive events that I want removed from hand. Though to be fair if you hit a retreat or hyperspace jump in poe maz that would be amazing.

Watched your championship match right about when i started playing swd. big fan, been playing phasma ever since(with lots of terrible versions haha) but this deck seems to be the way to go. Exciting to hear from you, it'd be cool to hear if you had any tricks up for sleeves against meta decks.

I don't ever seem to get much value from Aftermath, I've been running Logistics in its place. I also pitched the Jetpack for another copy of Best Defense (which is also great against Vader. I do really like the idea of Lying in Wait, because boundless ambition is a big part of the loval meta with Vader/Guard and FN/Rainbow as the decks to beat. I ran two sabotages the last store monthly, and only got a chance to use it once on a Planetary uprising.

Would you put the new #Phasma's Blaster (From the new 2-player kit) over Z6 Riot Control Baton? It has 1r, 2r, 3r for 1, +3r, 1 resource and a blank. It reads "While this upgrade is attached to Phasma to Captain Phasma, it has the redeploy keyword.
