pipshardfour: so excited for this!
powerflapjack: oh this game rules if you haven't seen it yet
Earthenone: may the 4th is a saturday, no meme is worth working on the weekend
pipshardfour: would love to see a SWU draft on May 4th!
Shadowsoflife: I'm here for this
powerflapjack: it extremely has the vibes of a modded PC game in the early 00s if the PC game in question is MtG
baltimore_667083: hello!
BrowneePoints: *snap-hiss*
LostThePirate: XD
Haroldholmes25: benjamin!
WardsarTheWriter: I'm about to be Order 66'd.
SmithKurosaki: Oh shit, they're gonna murder us
Decaped: June 6 is the superior Star Wars day anyway.
SnackPak_: this is gonna be a punchy stream, huh?
James_the_Dabbler: Wheeler has turned
Alas_Babylon: "You can't kill the chat!" "So have you heard about this card named Voja?"
BrowneePoints: I'm not joking, the OFFICIAL Onomatopoeia for a Lightsaber activating is *snap-hiss*
powerflapjack: Cheer100 fun fact, hayden christensen said "boo" to the child in that scene to get that reaction
Spirrie: SWU SWU SWU!!!
Haroldholmes25: LUL
fjordsword: Ooooohhhhh nerd fight time
Alas_Babylon: *swoon*
Metric_Furlong: does Beeg Dungo have a card? Kappa
TheWriterAleph: ooooh
James_the_Dabbler: You know what, that's fair. Star Wars ain't for everyone. These days, it really feels like it's for no one
HadesLeprechaun: I like...about 15% of Star Wars!
Earthenone: i am in the weird group where i saw 3 movies and liked them, then 3 and thought they were ok, and im told there is some sort of multiverse or something now?
BrowneePoints: Thanks PMAVers
Diabore: #not sponsored
WardsarTheWriter: It's Yoda. He's the source.
powerflapjack: i know enough about star wars to not want to talk to star wars fans because star wars fans... suck
LostThePirate: @BrowneePoints That was my thought too, haha

flatluigi: rip wheeler
powerflapjack: there's even a singleton format!
LostThePirate: Is the stream stuttering for anyone else or is that a me problem?
Haroldholmes25: LUL
powerflapjack: @LostThePirate a bit
62MGcobra: @LostThePirate i am too
StageMgrRob: yes
Blip2004: yeah, the frame rate is getting choppy
Juliamon: yeah just lost some framerate for a sec
kusinohki: yeah, stream is quite framy for me...
SnackPak_: ooo
Alas_Babylon: So it's not just me, good
TheWooglie: ooh fancy
WardsarTheWriter: I'm going to fall through the playmat...
flatluigi: i'm getting vertigo
powerflapjack: lmao, luke startwalker and starth vader
Decaped: Luuke I am your Starter
pipshardfour: aspects 👌
kusinohki: luuuke, I am your clone
powerflapjack: it's very much EDH with a star wars mod slapped on
BrowneePoints: Oh cool! The Art is inspired from the Comics!
powerflapjack: and it rules
PMAvers: +2 per icon that is missing.
LathosTiran: Time to go spelunking at the parents for the OG star wars tcg
WardsarTheWriter: "Prepare for my arrival."
pipshardfour: I get it. hard to say exhaust. other hard thing was everything coming in tapped. took a long time to get used to
Haroldholmes25: he flies now?
powerflapjack: he's got Big Ups
kusinohki: is there a card game that just says "turn the card sideways" instead of using some cutesy term for it??
powerflapjack: you don't want to be on the wrong side of a Darth Vader Footdive
BrowneePoints: A CHADRA FAN!
BrowneePoints: *kicks legs with excitement*
Getter404: So they're... sick from being summoned?
WardsarTheWriter: I love those fighters.
Earthenone: so vader can shoot down spacecraft?
TheMandrew: there is specifically 1 one ship that can attack ground units. and it's a rules nightmare :P
powerflapjack: @WardsarTheWriter good ol' Shadows of the Empire
Earthenone: with a lightsaber?
powerflapjack: @Earthenone he's got the force, he can throw it
WardsarTheWriter: @powerflapjack Hell yeah! N64 era!
Shadowsoflife: @Getter404 some kind of summoning daze
PMAvers: So note that since that guy is Yellow/Black, it would cost 2 more for Ben to play since his icons are Green/Red/Black.
powerflapjack: can't give an AT-AT a lightsaber because they're COWARDS
kusinohki: freaking at-at's with light sabers on their forehead...
LathosTiran: AT-ATs are deathly allergic to lightsabers
YareNiDaze: Ah, Duel Masters rules. Got it.
pipshardfour: you can always look at your own resources
mrsmacmanus: Aren't we all allergic to lightsabers?
kusinohki: lightsabers and trip wires... my 2 weaknesses!
Earthenone: 12, james won!
pipshardfour: handy dandy!
powerflapjack: i knew wheeler would get triggered by the initiative
62MGcobra: no dungeon only base
powerflapjack: don't worry wheeler, comet's not here. Yet.
Falannt: out space dungeon!
pipshardfour: classic wheeler
SmithKurosaki: Please tell me the names are wrong on purpose
Shadowsoflife: but space dragons right?
YareNiDaze: @SmithKurosaki They're both Start puns, because they're playing Starter Decks.
YareNiDaze: I assume.
powerflapjack: also it's inherently funny to say star wars names wrong.
kynelwynn: So, Hearthstone rules
powerflapjack: source: say star wars wrong all the time as a bit
kusinohki: think it should have been "luke startkiller"
Haroldholmes25: ambush is a removal spell on a stick
SmithKurosaki: ye
Alas_Babylon: Wheeler's quaking in his boots at this
LoadingReadyRun: lrrPAUL The Starter Decks don't have names other then "The Luke Skywalker deck" and "The Darth Vader Deck", so I gave them names lrrAWESOME
Spirrie: regroup!
powerflapjack: whoops, i've been doing the initiative wrong
SmithKurosaki: @LoadingReadyRun They're good :) Thanks for confirming tho :3
BrowneePoints: You played Digimon which KINDA does that with the Exceed system
Spirrie: They said they intentional made the mechanic depth low, but aim to ramp it up, but regardless keeping each set as a good starting point
WardsarTheWriter: Is this the guy that mouthed off to Vader at the meeting on the Death Star?
powerflapjack: @WardsarTheWriter yup.
BrowneePoints: Would be a perfect stream for Paul to nab some Lo-Fi Star Wars music mattlrDogchamp
HadesLeprechaun: is his defense the number of times his brain has been wiped in canon?
powerflapjack: then he filed a complaint with the Empire HR department. I'm not kidding
Haroldholmes25: yeah subtitles don't count
YareNiDaze: "Master Luke, I'm afraid my rear casing is dummy thick and keeps notifying the Stormtroopers to our location..."
pipshardfour: pass
DeChunkandFriends: *CLANG CLANG CLANG* from C3P0's dumpy
BrowneePoints: DING DING DING goes his Bell!
powerflapjack: what's also good is it's optional
LoadingReadyRun: @BrowneePoints gotta be careful about copyright. I am playing some spacey music, though
kynelwynn: I do not hear any music, but that may just be me
powerflapjack: so later in the game you don't HAVE to and can just draw two
Alas_Babylon: I occasionally hear strains of music
YareNiDaze: Music might need to be a touch louder.
kusinohki: I also don't hear music. would suggest "lo-fi" FTL soundtrack if such exists...
powerflapjack: oh baby, i see the line
powerflapjack: aw
Spirrie: typically play resources until you get to leader flip, but some decks still like to go past that. usually midrange and control
yalc321: Evenin nerds, whats the limit on this Star War?
Shadowsoflife: o/
LordZarano: Could just play Holst - The Planets
kynelwynn: have 3-P0 dogpile the Leutenant would be hilarious
powerflapjack: lieutenant
powerflapjack: even the incredibly british imperials
Decaped: Empire is british
DeChunkandFriends: Imagine the weirdo saying leftenint
Haroldholmes25: dont forget your triggers
PMAvers: Don't forget C-3P0's ability when attacking
Fasty_AF: C3po has an on attack trigger
Earthenone: dosent c3po draw, yeah
powerflapjack: 3P0's got that TITAN text
Haroldholmes25: he's strong with the force
Alas_Babylon: James, the Gamer
LoadingReadyRun: lrrPAUL brought the music up a little bit
powerflapjack: asteroid sanctuary is a house
carbonoid12: so are you resources locked as face down for the whole game?
kynelwynn: now I hear music
YareNiDaze: @Alas_Babylon He's Jaming.
powerflapjack: @carbonoid12 at the moment yes
Alas_Babylon: @LoadingReadyRun Sounds great now!
Earthenone: its interesting that the cards are letting them skip phases
DeChunkandFriends: Is there a hand limit?
PMAvers: @carbonoid12 For now, although in the next set they showed off a Smuggle mechanic, where if you pay the alternate cost you can play it from your resource row and replace it with the top card of your deck.
Spirrie: @carbonoid12 Pretty much, 1 card interacts with resources. next set will have a cards your can play from resource zone
powerflapjack: the next set is going to have a morph-esque mechanic
Spirrie: @dechunkandfriends No hand limit!
TheMandrew: @DeChunkandFriends nope, but there really isn't a lot of card draw so it never really comes up
carbonoid12: thanks
DeChunkandFriends: @Spirrie Well alright then!
BrowneePoints: Oh sick next set has Morphs from your Resource Zone!?
WardsarTheWriter: The Lukesaber.
powerflapjack: the next set looks pretty cool, the set after is Clone Wars centric so buckle up for that
Spirrie: @browneepoints Yep! it can have alternate costs (including aspects), and potentially different effects if played from hand vs resource
ChargingFurret: akshually that's anakins lightsaber
BrowneePoints: as long as they ignore the Monolith episode of Clone Wars I'm good
goombalax: why can't you strap a lightsaber to your tie fighter
kusinohki: wanted to see 3po wield a lightsaber...
Spirrie: @powerflapjack Was time period confirmed or just speculation?
Haroldholmes25: LUL
powerflapjack: @Spirrie confirmed
Spirrie: Rad! Now I know my I can my friend into it lmao
Earthenone: the games not complicated enough if you dont need to correct james :P
Spirrie: *can get
Haroldholmes25: he's tooooooo good
Earthenone: C+3po
powerflapjack: (vader voice) the force is strong with this one
Shadowsoflife: HOW!
BrowneePoints: C3-OH No
LostThePirate: lol
JeremyDevoid: Its repayment for all the lands when he plays MTGA
kynelwynn: Ben base should be at 29
fjordsword: Are we sure he isn't... psychic ... cheating ... something
Spirrie: James is just R2-D2 in disguise
WardsarTheWriter: Something something... luck. - Han Solo
powerflapjack: something something luck -Obi-Wan Kenobi
Krillin_fan: aim so bad even the flavor text missed
fjordsword: Does this balance him out ... is the world fixed now
AtrusOfMyst: The death star ones just got shiner armor and got to do more janitorial work
SpiritedChampignon: 1 damage on Ben's base?
BrowneePoints: ye Rebels stuff and next set is Clone Wars apparently Jacob
Haroldholmes25: shield in this game just negates the next damage hit for those in chat wondering
Spirrie: @browneepoints Next set is just bounty hunters, smugglers, underworld etc. no specific time period
tehfewl: Wheeler shudders every time someone says "take the initiative"
powerflapjack: @BrowneePoints sorry i was unclear, next set is like, underworld/The Mandalorian focused, set AFTER is clone wars
Haroldholmes25: there's also experience which is just a flat +1/+1 upgrade

kynelwynn: Which Clone Wars? CGI, The Second movie or the Tarkovsky run?
DaxStrife: I can almost here Jacob vibrating.
Spirrie: Pass gets very fun as a mechanic as you play more
powerflapjack: @kynelwynn the ones that are canon, so episode 2/3 and the CGI series
pipshardfour: @Spirrie agree!
kusinohki: Im guessing LRR has never played an AEG ccg (warlord, 7th sea, doomtown, L5R...)
Haroldholmes25: oh yeah that's a great one
pipshardfour: love that card!
Spirrie: Very excited to see the crew play this. I’ve quit magic and One Piece for this game and already judged a 1k with another on May 4th. I’m very normal
kynelwynn: @powerflapjack Boo! Ah well
MacbethSeemsSus: Well we wouldn't want them leaning.
Alas_Babylon: Suffering from Success
kusinohki: you'd think empire beuracracy would be more osha compliant...
DeChunkandFriends: Little known fact, the reactor runs on dead maintenance people, so the lack of railings is a necessity.
powerflapjack: "master luke watch this" (snaps stormtrooper's neck)
pipshardfour: @Spirrie I love this game as well! Cut back on Magic and playing this a ton
LoadingReadyRun: @Spirrie I'm guessing early May is going to be a popular time for SWU tournaments :p
pipshardfour: I love Leia's unit!!!
Spirrie: @loadingreadyrun Yeah, 5k in tournaments at SCG, 2 1k’s within 30 mins of eachother at home lmao
powerflapjack: as the premier imperial pilot of the format (wheeler hops in a TIE fighter)
Fasty_AF: Funfact: vader's ability can hit his own units
Spirrie: Hoping for some cool announcements that day!
Falannt: No stack (no interaction with the spells of opponent)? nah... don't like these games

goombalax: jacob broke
iris_of_ether: :D
powerflapjack: someone turn him off and on again
goombalax: we're gonna need another jacob
powerflapjack: Ambush needs a target
powerflapjack: so it comes in tapped
TheMandrew: so it doesn't ready
Vilun: am Jacob okay?
Mazrae: Am Jacob okay??
CanPlayGames: ambush needs a target to ready
AtrusOfMyst: Your doctor called it autism but it's just midichlorians to George Lucas
Spirrie: It will only ready if there’s a unit you choose to target, then immediately exhausts to attack
Alas_Babylon: @Vilun Some people are just very receptive to dry humor
Haroldholmes25: it is free correct
CanPlayGames: he also flips ready
powerflapjack: also like... 90% of removal so far is specifically "non leader"
Diabore: you may kill him in body, but never in spirit
powerflapjack: which i super like
PMAvers: Some other cards have Epic Actions too, like some of the alternate bases with lower health totals.
pipshardfour: LRR will you be talking about all your sweet pulls from the box you cracked?
powerflapjack: yes, some bases have abilities
CanPlayGames: this game rules.
SquareDotCube: Luke? Annoying? Say it ain't so!
orrie104: I may have missed it earlier… what are each of the bases?
hiFunko: morning boys
Haroldholmes25: big idiot colossal dreadmaw
Alas_Babylon: @hiFunko evening friend
Mazrae: Love them chicken walkers
carbonoid12: o/ Funko!
powerflapjack: @orrie104 Luke's is Administrator Tower from Bespin, and Vader's is the Death Star Command Center
Haroldholmes25: that's huuuuuuuuuge
pipshardfour: uhhhh yeah that's a great box
CanPlayGames: POG
Haroldholmes25: someone's in for a rough time
Earthenone: quuick google says vader is ~100 usd
powerflapjack: luke and kenobi are GROSS together
goombalax: on human legs
Vilun: @Alas_Babylon yes. and some people clearly aren't
Alas_Babylon: heh
Haroldholmes25: can't do that
PMAvers: Sentinel.
pipshardfour: well one of those Vaders must be a hyperspace then?!
Fasty_AF: Obi wan must be attacked first
Mazrae: What does experience do in this game
Fasty_AF: Sentinel
powerflapjack: oh right you had to attack Kenobi
Alas_Babylon: @Mazrae I think they're +1/+1 counters?
Haroldholmes25: old man throws himself under the bus for luke
Haroldholmes25: vader can blast shields tbf
Fasty_AF: Yes
hiFunko: as I understand it, the rebel deck wants to win quick before the empire deck gets online with bigger threats
Haroldholmes25: yeeeeeeep
pipshardfour: yeah the starter decks are sweet and a lot of these cards are played in constructed decks too
AtrusOfMyst: Giving your Juggernaut indestructible is pretty good
airddragon: The starter decks are fairly competent. Was uniquely surprised.
hiFunko: assuming these are the two starter decks
powerflapjack: yeah, I Am Your Father seems pretty jacked
hiFunko: I'm so glad I ordered the starter decks and they arrived THE DAY BEFORE I left Canada
hiFunko: because they're completely sold out in Aus
Haroldholmes25: yeah if you look at motti the rarity symbol in the bottom right is S
powerflapjack: i love that wheeler is fully Activated
kynelwynn: Do the plastic tokens come in the starter decks?
pipshardfour: @powerflapjack same
pipshardfour: love a fully activated wheeler
pipshardfour: starter decks come with lame cardboard punch out tokens
airddragon: @kynelwynn No separate thing from gamegenic.
PMAvers: The tokens are separate, they're put out by Gamegenic.
Fasty_AF: @kynelwynn no they are separate accesoires. Although the starter has paper tokens
kynelwynn: Thank you

powerflapjack: ben got through the Obi-Wan/Luke tandem pretty well
Fasty_AF: James could have considered just "passing" to deal 2 more dmg with the ship thanks to the tokens. As he knew Ben would attack
powerflapjack: but he'll also really cook Vader on the way out
SquareDotCube: Vader's not the shooting kind
PMAvers: Fun fact: Experience tokens count as Upgrades, so if you have any anti-upgrade tech you can destroy them.
hiFunko: oh that's good to know
pipshardfour: so we are counting down life totals to 0 and not counting up to 30?
hiFunko: right because usually they're a card placed under the card, like upgrades
Haroldholmes25: yeah the token has upgrade printed on it as the type
Haroldholmes25: same for shieldws
CanPlayGames: you got it hyperspace too!?
Lunareclipse123: Chungeese
Pywodwagon: oh, he cocos
powerflapjack: it's a CoCo but with a siege rhino
hiFunko: I think showcase is the best best?
Haroldholmes25: the extended border is hyperspace
pipshardfour: yes more expensive
CanPlayGames: extended art is hyperspace. sick
Haroldholmes25: :O
powerflapjack: G A M E R
Haroldholmes25: damn some streamer luck
pipshardfour: Yeah that's worth some money
kynelwynn: Get the sleeve!
powerflapjack: wheeler's gonna look directly into the camera and riffle shuffle, i'm so excited
orrie104: man, Darth Vader should be commanding the 501st Legion…
Earthenone: ~100 usd for the regular vader ~150 usd for the hyperspaced lol
hiFunko: Ah right, any card can be Hyperspace which is borderless, but only leader cards can be Showcase
pipshardfour: exactly!
Haroldholmes25: damn those pulls
pipshardfour: FOIL?!
Haroldholmes25: foil hyperspace glorp shitto?!
Decaped: Kit Fisto's brother
powerflapjack: glup shitto is in the next set, he's a tapper
Earthenone: i mean to be fair darth vader has to be the charizard of the star wars universe
CanPlayGames: this game is so sick. I’m loving watching this.
Haroldholmes25: yeah this one is a bit rough due to a shortage atm
pipshardfour: it is difficult to get product right now. Box prices have doubled
hiFunko: right now the market is "no one can buy anything" in Aus, so everythings all messed up
Fasty_AF: Pass into initative is end phase
Getter404: Didn't they reroute the EU and AUS shipments back to the States to combat the shortage there?
hiFunko: Sounds right
hiFunko: Right now my LGS is clutching what boosters they have to try to ration out draft events
Fasty_AF: That's the fun with SWU, when to pass, take etc
powerflapjack: that mickey is now like 5 bucks
hiFunko: the next series is introducing a Smuggling mechanic, which is fun
Haroldholmes25: LUL
Decaped: Doedre's gonna taze you.
CanPlayGames: I’m all in on Wing Leader.
HadesLeprechaun: @powerflapjack the card, the specific con version is still I believe unique and very expensive, but yeah
TheAinMAP: IS B agent? PrideFloat
Alas_Babylon: "No."
Getter404: NooooOOOOOOOoooooo
WardsarTheWriter: "No... no... no... you will die!!"
Earthenone: !card browbeat
LRRbot: Browbeat [2R] | Sorcery | Any player may have Browbeat deal 5 damage to them. If no one does, target player draws three cards.
powerflapjack: NooOOOOOOOoooooOOOOOO
Dragoonspirits86: is the target of 7 damage declared BEFORE he has tos ay no?
nerdrockforlife: gopher Luke!

powerflapjack: don't underestimate the force
coriolis_storm: “That is the power of the Dark Side!”
Getter404: The Force Unleashed, when Star Wars tried to make a God Of War
powerflapjack: the first one was Fine. the second one... also exists
Earthenone: was that star wars souls?
powerflapjack: @Earthenone nah, that's Jedi Fallen Order/Survivor
Diabore: @Earthenone no thats jedi survivor
Getter404: Fun Fact: Starkiller (Sam Witwer) is now the go-to VA for Darth Maul
Decaped: Space Wizards gonna space wizard
Diabore: right fallen order was the first one
orrie104: Sam Witwer is awesome
kynelwynn: This game has a board wipe, right?
powerflapjack: yup
powerflapjack: it's green/Imperial
Getter404: I *think* Jedi Survivor is hitting Game Pass Ultimate in a week or two?
Decaped: Get 'im with your lazer sword, steve!
Mazrae: They have bounce cards
powerflapjack: sorry, blue/imperial
jacqui_lantern234: JACOB XD
SRXLN: wheeler does not seem terribly enthused about the absolute KINO of the force unleashed
SuperRiderO: @Mazrae There's even a card called Cantina Bouncer that bounces. :D
MacbethSeemsSus: The safe word's "utini"
Red_Dead_Monkey: Pull his shirt out. mess up his hair!
kusinohki: I'm low key mad about the whole legends vs canon junk...
sheqesi: We saw Sam Witwer at a convention where they made him play Force Unleashed while they interviewed him in stage. It was hilarious!
Fasty_AF: But FFG already confirmed that non-canon stuff can be included in the game
SuperRiderO: LOL. You can tell they're Magic players by how they play cards and set resources
kynelwynn: No James, Go Again is Flesh and Blood
LoadingReadyRun: from a presentation perspective, I do like the simplicity of the board and the different areas
powerflapjack: "yoda dies, target you, flash in Imperial Bowmasters"
Haroldholmes25: LUL
Fasty_AF: Oh yeah. The game is very pleasing to watch imo
James_the_Dabbler: Having two "levels" of units is extremely clever imo
jvetting83: Resources James

LRRbot: Healing Salve [W] | Instant | Choose one — / • Target player gains 3 life. / • Prevent the next 3 damage that would be dealt to any target this turn.
Getter404: going back for more olive

LRRbot: lrrSPOT Thanks for subscribing, ThirdGames! (Today's storm count: 73)
James_the_Dabbler: James really said "finish this"
powerflapjack: So I love that Vanquish specifically says "Non-Leader"
SRXLN: is this also a 1 card per turn game or is it more involved than that
Astrovore: is a phase in this the whole turn?
kynelwynn: "Dies to Vanquish"
SuperRiderO: Yes, Astrovore
powerflapjack: @SRXLN Technically 2 a turn.
Astrovore: @SuperRiderO ty
SRXLN: holy shit once upon a time
Haroldholmes25: can grab tribal event maximum firepower
Earthenone: grand moff loves pyromancy
Haroldholmes25: *typal
gawag_: 100 grand moff tarkin sounds kinda good tho
Getter404: Did the Moffrence Room make it through the great Disney canon purge?
DoomBringerIL: where is the color of the mana ('resource')? all the 'lands' look the same... @LoadingReadyRun
kynelwynn: But now it loses sentinel
powerflapjack: @DoomBringerIL resources are resources
Earthenone: the colors are on the darth vader and the death star here
SRXLN: is this just star wars commander
SRXLN: is darth vader ben's commander
SuperRiderO: Yes
Haroldholmes25: yes
Shadowsoflife: Yes
powerflapjack: @SRXLN This very much has The Vibe of Commander with a Star Wars mod installed
Earthenone: darth vader is his comander, death star is his background
kynelwynn: Who can Interact with Vader anyway?
SuperRiderO: @powerflapjack They also have a commander variant
TheAwkes: Such a villain.
powerflapjack: @SuperRiderO that too
James_the_Dabbler: Ben Vs. Jacob, but not the right Ben
Alas_Babylon: @James_the_Dabbler instead it's the left Ben
powerflapjack: lmao, wheeler's just like "nonono, i'm getting in there, by hook or by crook"
josh___something: No, it's not the LEFT ben :p
WardsarTheWriter: Bens must fight an actual cage match for the right to play.
Earthenone: and remember wheeler is using a 300+ usd powered deck so presumably this will be more complicated than the starter decks?
Simonark: It was then that Wheeler would discover the terrible scope of Paul’s powers when protecting his place of power.
pipshardfour: loving seeing all the other SWU enjoyers here lrrSHINE lrrSHINE
James_the_Dabbler: This is our revenge for Ben winning all those dice rolls ?j
James_the_Dabbler: */j
Haroldholmes25: It does sound like they are giving wheeler the keys to the nukes, but I don't think it's necessarily all that much more complex. Starter decks are pretty good preview of the gameplay.
TheAinMAP: lrrSIG
josh___something: afthousand
SRXLN: HOW DES HE DO IT
Haroldholmes25: o7 I respect the sacrifice jacob
SuperRiderO: Of course Wheeler is playing Boba.
powerflapjack: hell yeah, sabine
definenull: Saabine lrrAWW
pipshardfour: no ECL with Boba?
protojman: oh cool!
Haroldholmes25: the pulls were only so lucky
SuperRiderO: ohh, fair boba
WardsarTheWriter: "It's Boba, the Fett! His backpack's got jets!"
Haroldholmes25: boba's ability does count bounces as well
SuperRiderO: I bounty hunt for Jabba Hutt to fininace my Fett
hiFunko: ah the 2000s
Earthenone: was that conteperary with taking hobbits to isenguard?
CaptainSpam: The Front's a great guy.
pipshardfour: Did you open any of the green 25 health bases? Energy Conversion Lab?
powerflapjack: god, YTMND
SuperRiderO: i miss YTMND and Newgrounds
MacbethSeemsSus: Star Wars Gangsta Rap
hiFunko: shiggity shiggity shwa
Decaped: MC Chris did the Mario rap, right?
LathosTiran: ebaum
couchboyj: Captain Kirkland is climbing a mount
Earthenone: bear with set mechanic
pipshardfour: Interesting building two green decks out of the booster box pool
SRXLN: bear with upside already? power creep is inescapable
SuperRiderO: Aggression
Haroldholmes25: blue/vigilance, green/command, red/aggression, yellow/cunning
Earthenone: just call it naya :P
RatherLargeToad: Spear Spewer as your commander
Haroldholmes25: you can play two one drops sometimes
Haroldholmes25: or one plus a leader ability
ChampBlankman: LRR playing SWU?!?!? This is the best!
Cptasparagus: wow they have Naya in Star Wars too?
ChampBlankman: Energy Conversion Lab
SuperRiderO: Energy Conversion Lab
Earthenone: energy conversion lab
Getter404: Eclectic CanLander?
Elyndil: no ecl?!?! shame shame
pipshardfour: control decks will sometimes not play something turn one and just take initiative
charlietrotter123: Can you draft this game?
Earthenone: i assume they might have intentionaly used 30 hp bases too
ChampBlankman: This has easily become my favorite new TCG since Android Netrunner.
Elyndil: the game was actually built with draft in mind, so packs are set for it
Haroldholmes25: @Elyndil double vader, one hyperspace, and a boba, can only get so lucky
SuperRiderO: As a Sabine player, we don't always ping
ChampBlankman: @Haroldholmes25 Wow! What pulls.
svelok: @charlietrotter123 yep, it's designed around draft
pipshardfour: any ramp in the Boba deck?
James_the_Dabbler: So what happens if your commander dies?
Haroldholmes25: oh yeah thrawn is a cool effect
powerflapjack: thrawn is pretty much hard control
Earthenone: combos with c3p0 i guess :P
hiFunko: which is very on brand for Thrawn
hiFunko: the lore and the mechanics line up real nice in this game
PMAvers: He's going to love the Smuggle mechanic next set, since he knows what's going to go back into his resources when he uses them.
SRXLN: i'll play this game if i can play lantern
powerflapjack: thrawn aka "What if Sherlock Holmes had the tactical acumen of Napoleon
Lysander_salamander: Chiss are a wild bunch of folks. They're peaceful until they run out of peaceful options. Then they utterly annihilate anyone that attacks them.
Elyndil: should always attack with your guy that had bonus there
Lysander_salamander: Thrawn was kicked out because he wanted to shoot first
powerflapjack: (probe droid noises)
Elyndil: does your camera pick up and show the card that was played? that is super cool
ChampBlankman: Hyperspace Probe Droid is so pretty.
powerflapjack: you know the probe droid noises, do it along with me
twistedsylvan: @Lysander_salamander Pacifist, but if you need to fight, end the fight as quickly as possible
kynelwynn: Notably only 25 health on that base
WardsarTheWriter: All your base are belong to rebels.
powerflapjack: rebel assault is pretty yoked
Getter404: So speaking of Wars in the Stars, any odds of Shatterpoint on the horizon?
Lysander_salamander: someday I should try out the Old Republic mmo
SuperRiderO: @Lysander_salamander The controls always feel clunky to me
hiFunko: @Getter404 When I was last there, I don't believe anyone had picked it up yet
ChampBlankman: Much like with the first Lorcana stream, I am excited to hear Wheeler's thoughts on this game.
hiFunko: I got the core box but I haven't messed with it yet
powerflapjack: (pumps shotgun)
Elyndil: is that foil boba?
powerflapjack: sure is
pipshardfour: yes ut us
pipshardfour: yes it is
Elyndil: wow that box was cracked
LoadingReadyRun: lrrPAUL Sadly, I don't think Thrawn got a very good live action introduction in Ashoka
twistedsylvan: so chat if we needed to relate this to another TCG, what is the closest comparison?
powerflapjack: MtG
James_the_Dabbler: Jacob is eating
jimber_jam: WoW TCG?
SuperRiderO: Hearthstone
Elyndil: wow tag
Elyndil: hearthstone
kynelwynn: This feels more like the newer L5R instead of the old one
Elyndil: yeah
kynelwynn: And even then
Lysander_salamander: I missed when they played the Vampire Masquerade card game. Was that fun?
Shadowsoflife: It was neat
twistedsylvan: honestly I enjoy pretty much everything that's been listed, so those are all good signs lol
SuperRiderO: OH, Jacob didn't Resource. Yikes
PMAvers: With the shared turns and the back & forth, I would say the closest thing I can think of is probably Ashes, but that's something not everyone knows.
SuperRiderO: @PMAvers *Glances over at his Ashes box*
powerflapjack: Millennium Falcon
hiFunko: Palpaine is a popular leader
hiFunko: yeah falcon is nice
Elyndil: like skywalker is amazing, mace is meh
twistedsylvan: @PMAvers I actually got that recently! I don't know it well yet, but it seems super cool
powerflapjack: Any of the legendary Star Destroyers
jimber_jam: so I missed the first bit of this, but I just wanna say I am so hype to see LRR play this. I seriously love this game
Elyndil: avenger is very solid as well
SRXLN: BOSSK???
tergonis: put that man on a segway
pipshardfour: any legendary really is good
hiFunko: Right now the most poppin cards are generally leaders or big name units like Han and Vader
Elyndil: this point in game, boba likely wins
SRXLN: did you know bossk's name means "devours his prey"
ChampBlankman: Vigilance is this week's new hotness.
Diabore: theres mill cards!
Elyndil: vigilance is extremely strong
KeithulhuCards: Oh shit, Vigilance is really popular right now
ChampBlankman: Because it was key in a deck that won a $5k in Florida over the weekend.
pipshardfour: it can make games result in a draw!
Earthenone: dident pull the textless vigilance? :P
Elyndil: it was popular before then because it countered boba pretty well, now it’s well known lol
powerflapjack: Importantly, that card requires both your leader and base to be blue
ChampBlankman: $45 USD right now.
SuperRiderO: Now, mind you. Prices are jacked right now just cause of Lack of Product.
KeithulhuCards: It's good enough that people will play it off-aspect though
hiFunko: oh hell yeah
Elyndil: @powerflapjack you just pay 6 for it and it’s still insane
hiFunko: my boy
powerflapjack: @Elyndil oh yeah, i just wanted to point that out to the lads in the studio
pipshardfour: Any KTSOs?
Haroldholmes25: only on units
Earthenone: !lorcana grandma tala
LRRbot: Can't find any card by that name
powerflapjack: steve-rlaser technician
goombalax: they let him choose his own job title
Cptasparagus: is it a good laser technician or a technician for a super laser?
Earthenone: ~lorcana grandma tala
hiFunko: isn't this set mostly rebellion era stuff
SuperRiderO: This set is from Rogue One to the end of Episode 6
powerflapjack: mostly yeah.
hiFunko: Yeah there you go
Haroldholmes25: technically he's a clone of jango who all the clones are clones of
coriolis_storm: Good point Paul!
powerflapjack: the big breaks are mace windu and Kylo Ren
SuperRiderO: There's some stuff like Black One that slipped through but mostly, its those
hiFunko: they really said "let's target the 30-50 year old fans first"
goombalax: mace windu tho?
A_Dub888: Hang on, is the name for the Deathstar's laser really "Superlaser?"
PMAvers: There's a Andor leader in this set.
jimber_jam: technically starts with Rebels chronogically
powerflapjack: yeah, cassian is in the set
Getter404: @goombalax Samuel L Jackson defies time and space
SuperRiderO: @PMAvers Rogue One to Episode 6
Elyndil: Sabine is in trouble
Haroldholmes25: @hiFunko I mean the original trilogy is the least controversial most universally well liked era of star wars
Decaped: Vigilance was Anakin and Obi Wan tho?
twistedsylvan: @A_Dub888 I'll be real, I thought it was a Turbo Laser. Both are real names of weapons in the series
hiFunko: true it's a safe choice to start
Mattmitchell45: I want the whole Aldoni crew
WardsarTheWriter: Oh! This means we might get Andy Serkis in this game eventually!
ChampBlankman: @Decaped Not every card is on theme.
KeithulhuCards: We do know a few of the cards from the upcoming June set. The starter cards are Moff Gideon vs the Mandalorian
goombalax: Ernham Jyn Erso
Getter404: But does he get to touch Yabba
hiFunko: any Jizz based cards?
powerflapjack: juzam jyn erso
SuperRiderO: @KeithulhuCards Smuggle Mechanic is hot as hell, too
KeithulhuCards: @superridero Yeah! Smuggle seems sweet, and I'm excited for more upgrade payoffs hopefully
ChampBlankman: I'm assuming someone has already pointed out that damage counts up in this game, right?
powerflapjack: Cheer100 good ol' bob feet
Getter404: Boba deez?
A_Dub888: Jango = Boba Daddy
DeChunkandFriends: Yes, Boba's "dad"
goombalax: if you thought soup dad was bad...
Mattmitchell45: I want to make a terrible Syril Karn Mall Cop deck
pipshardfour: I can't wait for a Snuggle mechanic PogChamp
Haroldholmes25: dna source "dad"
SuperRiderO: I'm also happy they Future Proof Fett's Firespray by mentioning Jango
Mazrae: Jango = Boba's clone daddy
powerflapjack: @Getter404 you joke but there literally is a character named Sergeant Deez in canon
Elyndil: GG, what’s a strike true
Elyndil: what
Getter404: Me & The Boys
CanPlayGames: bossk trigger?
jimber_jam: ah, I was hoping it was Firespray
LoadingReadyRun: @ChampBlankman I feel like counting down is clearer for the overlay. Does it affect anything?
pipshardfour: When are we going to see Darth
SuperRiderO: @LoadingReadyRun Cards like Guerilla attack pod
Pywodwagon: counting up is official SWU policy
hiFunko: Only because the game gives you tokens to put on the card
CanPlayGames: counting up does matter for some cards.
hiFunko: and refers to "removing damage"
jimber_jam: technically, but it really doesn't matter
hiFunko: but both are fine
Haroldholmes25: technically yeah, but this is easier for magic players
hiFunko: as long as you're clear
Decaped: THAC0 returns! XD
SuperRiderO: Some cards say "15 remaining HP"
Elyndil: it matters for healing, and card text. in general it doesn’t matter too much yet, but it’s good to get in the habit of
pipshardfour: some cards care about how much damage is on the base
kynelwynn: I do match Ben's thought
Haroldholmes25: this is that card
CanPlayGames: there are cards referring to damge counters on a base.
Getter404: "Number go up, number bad" - Admiral Ackbar
CanPlayGames: literally this
hiFunko: yeah but you can still just figure it out
twistedsylvan: I can see how counting down is more useful for Stream though
hiFunko: I guess if you hate math you count up instead?
Pywodwagon: its especially relevant since stuff doesn't start at the same max health
A_Dub888: !findquote math
LRRbot: Quote #4392: "Serge, is it "outside assistance" if I do basic math for them?" —Graham [2017-10-11]
Earthenone: to be fair with geurillla attack pod 15 is still the shown number when its 30 life :P
Dog_of_Myth: So math is for attackers now?
hiFunko: oh true, some bases have more health?
josh___something: EFF doing math
CanPlayGames: math bad. lrrFRUMP
hiFunko: Not sure if that's true
SuperRiderO: @hiFunko 4 have 25. Everyone else is 30
hiFunko: There you go
A_Dub888: !findquote integrity
LRRbot: Could not find any matching quotes.
superdude097: Ben can go all out. Just this once
pipshardfour: sideboard?
powerflapjack: do the happy muffins look like darth vader
Elyndil: Sabine needs to go face way more
josh___something: excuse?
Earthenone: advice for jacob: dont let wheeler draw the expensive good cards :P
powerflapjack: @Earthenone advice for matchup: hope the opponent doesn't draw Jitte
SuperRiderO: Also, the Fighters for Freedom could've punched the Smuggler with Shield to pop the shield and kill it
Elyndil: the 1 cost units were also not great , unless he had sentinels it may be better to resource them. but I don’t know what’s in the deck lol
twistedsylvan: in the words of Nelson, "Draw more of your good cards."
coriolis_storm: Or, more accurately, “Base is the place” LUL
Elyndil: sabatour,yeah it gets the shield before damage
jimber_jam: the only time aggro wants to attack other units is if they can trade up against something critical or in the aggro mirror when you're behind
superdude097: Missed the very beginning. How many cards are in a starting deck?
powerflapjack: 50
superdude097: Ty
Earthenone: the base is the place
hiFunko: base is the place, london
twistedsylvan: so wait, does that mean that the math really is for Blockers? Or Defenders?
Dog_of_Myth: Learning is fun
Jackomaning: @powerflapjack is that 50 and also a base and leader?
jimber_jam: @Jackomaning yes
powerflapjack: bingo
Jackomaning: ty
SuperRiderO: 50 + Base and Leader
Mazrae: This game looks like it would be so much fun
svelok: it is
powerflapjack: @Mazrae it 100% is
jimber_jam: this game is a BLAST
kynelwynn: Remember Shandalar
SuperRiderO: I'be been playing magic for 20 years and I dropped magic to play this game
hiFunko: yeah I need to get down to my LGS for a SWU night
Earthenone: math is for sentinals
CanPlayGames: this game rules
circusofkirkus: so this game has a shuffler???
powerflapjack: so the multiplayer format is called Twin Suns, and you have two leaders plus the base. 50 card singleton
powerflapjack: until like next year when it becomes 80 card singleton
hiFunko: not all rerolls, just Command Rerolls you pay for. If they're free, they're safe
SuperRiderO: @powerflapjack Set 4
powerflapjack: i'm assuming it'll be next year
LoadingReadyRun: I still think it's a little more clear for the overlay to do the countdown on the base health (that also helps if the bases have different starting totals).
Haroldholmes25: sure is a trooper alright
Elyndil: better have spent both resources on the other guy in hand
kynelwynn: Are there no "vanilla" creatures?
powerflapjack: i thought wheeler said "he has Beej attire"
CanPlayGames: sun kissed trooper
Earthenone: definitly agree paul
Haroldholmes25: @kynelwynn there are
svelok: @kynelwynn very very few
SuperRiderO: Also, you can strategically pass without taking the initiative to see what your opponent is going to do.
powerflapjack: @kynelwynn there's a stormie that's Just a 3/1 for 1
hiFunko: the cards that care about base health - are they always 15 or more damage? if so, once they get to 14 health left you could make the colour red?
Mattmitchell45: Harassing people on Niamos
goombalax: desert troopers don't need to learn to swim
jimber_jam: I appreciate Wheeler's attention to properly drawing then readying
hiFunko: sequencing matters
VelvetFalcon: "Got somewhere to be? Are you part of it?"
SuperRiderO: @hiFunko You don't make colors
josh___something: sonic boom
hiFunko: Sorry, I was talking about the base health totals, but it was a crap idea anyway
hb8u: the initiative is here too? oh god
Earthenone: space healer seems bad for the agrro ground deck
CanPlayGames: jlrrDance3 jlrrDance jlrrDance3 jlrrDance jlrrDance3 jlrrDance jlrrDance3 jlrrDance jlrrDance3
carbonoid12: so are there rebellion/empire restrictions for your deck? if you have the colors, could Leia be in a Vader deck?
SuperRiderO: @Earthenone A proper Sabine has Fly fly bois, too
Haroldholmes25: @carbonoid12 yeah it just costs 2 more each missing aspect
SuperRiderO: @carbonoid12 It would just cost 2 more
svelok: @carbonoid12 no, only color
VelvetFalcon: @SuperRiderO It's kind like Lorcana right? Pick two colours, but also good and evil can't mix.
Haroldholmes25: LUL
SuperRiderO: The only time you can't mix good and evil is your leaders for Twin Suns
goombalax: you can stream the weekly
Dog_of_Myth: LUL
Haroldholmes25: suffering from success
pipshardfour: Please do that!!!
powerflapjack: "Is this Your Card ON LOCATION"
Blip2004: not a fan of the font
CanPlayGames: the league promo packs at the LGS are cool. full arts of the starter decks.
sheqesi: Could be a bonus stream for May the Fourth?
CanPlayGames: you can corner the market.
Haroldholmes25: early march was prerelease
VelvetFalcon: March
KeithulhuCards: Yeah the YouTube scene is pretty sad. PLEASE start one!!
hiFunko: Couple months yeah
powerflapjack: recently enough that there's still supply problems
hiFunko: It was while I was in Vic
jimber_jam: Let me say, I am extremely glad to see LRR play this because I have been DESPARATE for good SWU YouTube content
SuperRiderO: Ya. Supply issue is a HUGE detrament
goombalax: March 8
pipshardfour: There is not a lot out there
Dog_of_Myth: @sheqesi That's a good idea
carbonoid12: really thinking about getting a starter set for Bezos...
SuperRiderO: FFG wasn't prepared for the massive success of the game
hiFunko: Gauntlet out at Hillside has regular SWU events on their calendar too, it's just hard to get stock I think
James_the_Dabbler: This seems super fun tbh
Earthenone: it seems my lgs is out of all non starter product, luckily if i get anything it would be the starter so im golden :P
SuperRiderO: There wont' be a set 1 reprint til like, October
hiFunko: I've heard rumblings from LGS near me that a second drop of the starter decks is hittin Aus soon, unclear about US/Can
SuperRiderO: @Earthenone All LGS' are
pipshardfour: exahusted
CanPlayGames: I hope one day we can have a full Ewok vs Jawa match
KeithulhuCards: Yeah Set 1 boxes are selling for like $300 now, it's not looking great. Hopefully print runs are better for Set 2
kusinohki: womp rats vs loth cats
Earthenone: i hope ewoks are like relentless rats and you can play any number
SuperRiderO: MY LGS is also running a Learn to Play Event on May 4th and they want me to help run it
KeithulhuCards: I got my 1 box, I'll just live with what I opened for now
hiFunko: they did recently post that the demand outstripped even their wildest expectations
The_Color_Twelve subscribed at Tier 1. They've subscribed for 51 months, currently on a 51 month streak!
LRRbot: lrrSPOT Thanks for subscribing, The_Color_Twelve! (Today's storm count: 74)
hiFunko: which is good for them
CanPlayGames: the pauper Leia and Tarken decks rule.
svelok: draft is very fun
goombalax: the next set releases in July
SuperRiderO: @hiFunko Ya, their last attempts at Star Wars wasn't the greatest so they were going by those numbers and not like what it could be
pipshardfour: Draft is sweet you guys will love it! You get to draft the leaders first. It's great
Dog_of_Myth: Might have to check this out at GenCon this year.
SuperRiderO: It's not when you get passed 3 Jyns.
KeithulhuCards: Honestly yeah, considering a constructed deck is just 50 cards and playsets are 3 instead of 4, it's VERY easy to get a fine deck from one or two boxes
Haroldholmes25: yeah I wish somewhere local did draft, but I did jam some games with a tarkin pile I threw together was able to have fun
Earthenone: building a deck from a box sounds great, spending 300 usd for a box is less great
KeithulhuCards: Yeahhhhh
SuperRiderO: A proper Sabine/Leia deck can be built fairly cheap and is super competitive
KeithulhuCards: Don't buy markup prices. Ever.
kynelwynn: General Yipyipyip
LoadingReadyRun: General Dodo Banana
SuperRiderO: I have 2 Lukes and 2 vaders. Didn't find any Boba's or Falcons so I was like "Cool, guess I'm not touching Cunning."
KeithulhuCards: Nice. All the legendaries in my box were 1-ofs in different colors, so I'm just leaning in on Twin Suns
SuperRiderO: The problem with this set also is the boxes were mappable. Like, you could tell what Legendaries were in you box by opening like the first 4 packs
KeithulhuCards: Yeah, that is a big problem
Earthenone: ahh, thats always rough
Cptasparagus: you have an interesting type if you started at Dog the Bounty Hunter and ended up with Kiefer
pipshardfour: I love the equating all abilities to magic cards
SuperRiderO: Also, the distrobution of Showcases was weird as hell. Some people cracked like 4 or 5 in one box
Shadowsoflife: jacob all about that base
SoldieroFortune: !uptime
LRRbot: The stream has been live for 2:05:38.
KeithulhuCards: Oh yeah, the god boxes were weird to see
SuperRiderO: Good ol Trample
jimber_jam: @SuperRiderO meanwhile between my friend group we opened 24 boxes and got 1
KeithulhuCards: Whoa
SuperRiderO: No.
Haroldholmes25: no
pipshardfour: it has to be alive at the end
JonnyGlitched subscribed with Prime. They've subscribed for 89 months!
LRRbot: lrrSPOT Thanks for subscribing, JonnyGlitched! (Today's storm count: 75)
Earthenone: i assume boba is worded that way so it can trigger itself
JonnyGlitched: Hello everyone
Shadowsoflife: o/
SuperRiderO: I love games where I don't have to worry about landbases
JonnyGlitched: What have I missed?
Shadowsoflife: card games
Haroldholmes25: LUL
Haroldholmes25: they got him again
JonnyGlitched: MtG is a fad
KeithulhuCards: I am SO here for more SWU content from LRR
Earthenone: i mean may 4th is coming up in a couple weeks if you want a meme reason on a saturdau
jimber_jam: Friday Night "Paper" Fight, that could be any card game!
SuperRiderO: Does CardKingdom sell anything other than Magic?
CanPlayGames: this game has 100% made me feel magics age.
SuperRiderO: FFG's tournament rules are trash. A tie is a loss for both players.
SuperRiderO: And Cuts are still timed.
KeithulhuCards: @CanPlayGames absolutely yes. This is the culmination of 30 years of TCG design successes & failures
Haroldholmes25: not a specific card, just a general?
JonnyGlitched: I don't have friends so I'm only into single player card games
SuperRiderO: @JonnyGlitched Marvel Champions my friend
Getter404: Don't hit mom
kynelwynn: If Wheeler keeps doing this, Jacob may not wish to ome back
Earthenone: you can attack non exerted units?
LoadingReadyRun: Do we call that Overbush?
Earthenone: neat!
JonnyGlitched: @SuperRiderO I'm more into Cobalt Core rn
Getter404: @SuperRiderO Arkham Horror will show up one day! ...maybe!
Shadowsoflife: @SuperRiderO mtg area?
svelok: @Earthenone you can attack anything yeah
kynelwynn: @LoadingReadyRun Ambwhelm
SuperRiderO: @Earthenone Can attack anything as long as its in your arena or isn't Sentiinel
KeithulhuCards: Ben, any chance you might try making some Twin Suns decks once you've drafted the second box?
jimber_jam: Amberwhelm?
James_the_Dabbler: Ambover
CanPlayGames: I’m so hyped that y’all are enjoying this.
JonnyGlitched: I bounced off MtG when all the themed sets became common
spinebustertee: Polycardamory
SuperRiderO: Haha
Earthenone: ill show you a frog the jam
powerflapjack: i'll show you a mirror force
jimber_jam: shields are upgrades!
powerflapjack: wait, the joke's right there. i'll show you a dark hole
SuperRiderO: Pot of greeds gonna draw 2 cards out my ass
KeithulhuCards: Yeah, Twin Suns is the multiplayer format for SWU, I can't wait to see if y'all try it out
pipshardfour: Boba Fett is a bully
Haroldholmes25: it is hard to recover
jimber_jam: aggro vs a stabilized midrange boba is really tough to overcome
Haroldholmes25: there is stuff like u wing reinforcements that help with that
JonnyGlitched: Red Deck Wins running out of gas?
SuperRiderO: Ya, U-Wing is dunks
Earthenone: benben
SuperRiderO: A proper Sabine deck can hit opponents base for 8 by turn 2
superdude097: Battle of the Bens
jimber_jam: kinda just general reminders
Haroldholmes25: exclamation is just a reminder
Earthenone: it means the charicter has a quest right? :P
KeithulhuCards: The exclamation point is just an extra
Dog_of_Myth: Yeah, Jacob did great
pipshardfour: one is temporary
JonnyGlitched: !
SuperRiderO: Reminders
pipshardfour: maybe the starters again? They are good
Haroldholmes25: LUL
KeithulhuCards: Yeah, the starters are incredibly well balanced
carbonoid12: so chat, boosters are almost impossible to find, but the starter pack is still decent value for someone wanting to get into the game?
pipshardfour: Yeah starters!
SuperRiderO: yes, @carbonoid12
svelok: @carbonoid12 yeah the starter is the best value per dollar even if boosters were around
SuperRiderO: They're solid with good cards
SuperRiderO: The deck that one the 5k last weekend, most of the cards were in teh starter
Earthenone: aggro is always sequence heavy, and this game seems more sequence heavy than most
SuperRiderO: Or rather. The Luke that was in the top 4
KeithulhuCards: Absolutely, I cannot recommend the starters highly enough, they're amazing
pipshardfour: Vader!
josh___something: SICK
hiFunko: Yeah they were all super cheap too
ChivesSenpai: SeemsGood
hiFunko: The meta is still very much in flux because people have to work with what they've got
hiFunko: which is a rad time
SuperRiderO: @hiFunko 3 Lukes and 3 Home ones isn't CHEAP
SuperRiderO: Avengers aren't cheap either
JonnyGlitched: degobox
pipshardfour: I have to say we still haven't seen a Darth Vader
Laserbeaks_Fury: Dagobah and me wanna go home
Mattmitchell45: Cool Jacob Water audio ^_^
KeithulhuCards: Turns out R2-D2 is kinda cracked when you can build your deck around just a few costs
jacqui_lantern234: @hiFunko YOURE rad!!! <3
pipshardfour: played
Getter404: The Warhammer Combat Patrol problem. Can't have them ACTUALLY be a good deal
pipshardfour: @jacqui_lantern234 You're Rad!
JonnyGlitched: Magic is a gatcha system primarily
Laserbeaks_Fury: Do you think this is better than the Decipher SW game?
JonnyGlitched: I loath speculative investing
jimber_jam: @Laserbeaks_Fury as someone who loved that game, yes
SuperRiderO: It's great when your company OWNS the printing company that prints them
JonnyGlitched: loathe
Haroldholmes25: I can't believe we let ben win another die roll
Diabore: as is tradition for wheeler
SuperRiderO: @Laserbeaks_Fury Decipher was not beginner friendly
Laserbeaks_Fury: Give it time
SuperRiderO: Forcetable and TTS
kynelwynn: This game looks like it could slot in 3+ players
JonnyGlitched: Tabletop Simulator lrrBEEJ
SuperRiderO: @kynelwynn There's an official Multiplayer format
twistedsylvan: there is a HMMMM
Haroldholmes25: @kynelwynn there is a dedicated mp format
kynelwynn: nic
kynelwynn: +e
pipshardfour: Hey guys Fantasy Flight Games is located in Minnesota, so when you inevitably fall in love with this game you'll have to go out and visit FFG in good ole MN
KeithulhuCards: @kynelwynn there's an official multiplayer format called Twin Suns with special rules. You can use 2 leaders in one deck
Haroldholmes25: oh yeah that's what you want in sabine
Earthenone: r2scry1
Haroldholmes25: r2 d2 is a combo with c3p0 though
superdude097: R2 Scry 1
LoadingReadyRun: is Twin Suns free for all, or a 2v2?
Cptasparagus: droid racism
Haroldholmes25: free for all
KeithulhuCards: Twin Suns is free for all
jacqui_lantern234: LOVE me a C3-D2 Kappa
SuperRiderO: Also, TO REMIND THE ROOM, you can also Pass without taking the initiative if you want your opponent to do something first. But the problem is if your opponent gets Initiative, then the phase ends.
SuperRiderO: Resources enter tapped.
svelok: readying last just communicates that you're done and your opponent can start playing
jimber_jam: people assumed Twin Suns was 2v2 when all we had to go on was the name, but the name comes from having two leaders
CanPlayGames: everything technically enters tapped
KeithulhuCards: Twin Suns also has 3 different kinds of tokens like the Initiative, so all 3 players before the last can have something to claim
hiFunko: Yeah svelok is on it
JonnyGlitched: I have no idea what's happening but I'm also very sick
CanPlayGames: also I ready to show I’m done.
pipshardfour: some small intricacies with how the rules work, like how resources come in exhuasted
pipshardfour: and readying signals you are ready
pipshardfour: Did you open a Han Solo leader?
carbonoid12: well, this has sold me....going to try this game out
SuperRiderO: Han is a fun deck
Kendomo: Just tuned in, is this constructed or limited?
KeithulhuCards: Han Solo leader might be the coolest leader in the game, imo
SuperRiderO: Constructed
meowzhuxi subscribed with Prime. They've subscribed for 75 months!
LRRbot: lrrSPOT Thanks for subscribing, meowzhuxi! (Today's storm count: 76)
CanPlayGames: also love this Matt.
SuperRiderO: Their constructed format is called Premiere
Haroldholmes25: casino han is kinda funny
JonnyGlitched: #Sponsored
WardsarTheWriter: [Influence: Successful]
pipshardfour: Yes I think wheeler would love Han as a leader
Getter404: I *would* be sold but you already sold me on Marvel Crisis Protocol. Either way Asmodee's getting my money
pipshardfour: Premier
KeithulhuCards: @pipshardfour oh absolutely
SuperRiderO: Premiere
Getter404: FFG, yes
Haroldholmes25: amodee owns ffg yeah
KeithulhuCards: Yeah it's asmodee
SuperRiderO: Yes
SuperRiderO: FFG is owned by Amod
Earthenone: FFG owned by yeh
SuperRiderO: Which is why Gamegenic does all the supplies
Cptasparagus: Asmodeez nuts
kynelwynn: Did the restored ship take any damage?
JonnyGlitched: I'll submit a complaint
KeithulhuCards: @kynelwynn no it had a shield
Earthenone: then we can have a SWTCG PPR
carbonoid12: mmm....pocket bacon
JonnyGlitched: pocket bacon
Falannt: buuuut, its disney :(
Dog_of_Myth: LUL
CanPlayGames: Canadian bacon?
Pywodwagon: I tried to talk to Ravensburger when I met them but he didn't like me because I had judged a Lorcana tournament with cash prizes
Haroldholmes25: LUL
jimber_jam: meat counter bacon is so much better
kynelwynn: Butcher .. case? the hell is that?
Easilycrazyhat: ur mom is bougie
JonnyGlitched: I really wanted to try that pocket bacon, it looked so good
JonnyGlitched: I've never had thick cut like that
WardsarTheWriter: You cannot say "Bougie" and "Thrifty" in the same sentence... they're incompatible.
Earthenone: @Pywodwagon im sorry you were judged for dudging
Falannt: in your bace?
SuperRiderO: Also, the small 3 pack Organzied Play kit cards are dope as hell
SuperRiderO: The Yoda Alt Art is adorable as fuck
CanPlayGames: Ben is Jacob’s boss?
Haroldholmes25: oh and this game does paper packs, which is neat
Getter404: Just tossing haymakers
SuperRiderO: Rebel Assault is worse when you use it on a Leia Leader cause you get 3 Attacks
KeithulhuCards: Rebel Assault is amazing, yeah. Honestly, just any card that lets you do two actions at once is fantastic
KeithulhuCards: Since actions are so tightly volleyed between players, anything that breaks that volley is a huge play. It's why Ambush is the strongest keyword by a long shot
JonnyGlitched: bowcaster
superdude097: Flavor fail! Rebel assault lets you attack with 2 units, but clearly shows 3 units attacking in the art Kappa
DrLigmaPhD: its not like i like you chew-baka
JonnyGlitched: fun weapon in the Jedi Knight series
Getter404: "Mods, I want that wookiee obliterated"
pipshardfour: my advice - let the wookie win
coriolis_storm: Are there non vehicle space units?
Falannt: wheeler is our pro! ;) nice and clean play
svelok: @coriolis_storm not yet
KeithulhuCards: @coriolis_storm no, we haven't gotten Space Leia yet
Getter404: Aw, no Space Whales from Rebels?
KeithulhuCards: Oh unironically, space whales would actually be sweet
svelok: maybe in set 2
DrLigmaPhD: @Getter404 They were in Clone Wars too, or was that space mantas?
KeithulhuCards: Set 2 is all about smugglers & fringe characters, so it would be perfect there
WardsarTheWriter: Big fan, or a Chadra Fan?
SuperRiderO: There is a Space Unit that can attack Ground Units
powerflapjack: yeah, it's a gunship
KeithulhuCards: Yeah that gunship is a blast. pun intended
SuperRiderO: Fun Fact, as long as there's not a Sentinel in space, even if theres a sentinel on ground, it can still hit anyone on ground.
DrLigmaPhD: @KeithulhuCards "Space Control" sounds like an archetype now
TalesFromTheManaCrypt subscribed with Prime. They've subscribed for 60 months!
TalesFromTheManaCrypt: 5 years, already?! lrrSHINE thanks for all the fun!
LRRbot: lrrSPOT Thanks for subscribing, TalesFromTheManaCrypt! (Today's storm count: 77)
SuperRiderO: @DrLigmaPhD Ya, it's called Late Game Villany
DrLigmaPhD: @SuperRiderO Excellent name for a deck
Cptasparagus: when are we getting Jar Jar
KeithulhuCards: Actually, it is! There are control decks called Unitless Control, which just play really big stuff in space and interact with events otherwise
Haroldholmes25: oh that is a hot pull
jimber_jam: that's a pretty solid draw wheeler
SuperRiderO: Avenger and Devestator are rouuuugh
KeithulhuCards: Yeaahhhhhh
SuperRiderO: That's a pretty Hyperspace
JonnyGlitched: in early MtG I seem to recall more words meaning worse
carbonoid12: so there's lifelink in this game....nice
JonnyGlitched: this was around 5th ed
DrLigmaPhD: @JonnyGlitched It's a 1/1 but when it dies you must perfectly recite Poe's Dreamland or lose the game
KeithulhuCards: @carbonoid12 yeah! Except that you can never gain more life than your base started with, since the life gain is technically damage removal
SuperRiderO: K2 off an ECL is <3
JonnyGlitched: @DrLigmaPhD a 3/2 for 4 being good
SuperRiderO: And then you play a second one and blow the other one up and its down 3 damge
pipshardfour: Shield stops overhwhelm FYI
RatherLargeToad: resources can be exchanged for goods and services
JonnyGlitched: *luke's theme music intensifies*
pipshardfour: there are some outs
JonnyGlitched: Hans Solo shot first
KeithulhuCards: Come on Ben, you got this!
carbonoid12: i don't know about you guys, but i think Ben will win this.
KeithulhuCards: Yeah, I think Ben has a clear advantage here
JonnyGlitched: Ban is still in it though
JonnyGlitched: dammit
CanPlayGames: clutch Leia play
JonnyGlitched: there are some classic scenes in the art
SuperRiderO: Han just Shot..... He didn't Shoot First.
SuperRiderO: "First" would mean Greedo shot, too. Greedo did not shoot.
KeithulhuCards: I genuinely love the artwork in this game
svelok: dev said they keyworded shoot first originally, but putting too much of it in the card pool made decks super oppressive
JonnyGlitched: The HD version of Ep IV does not exist for me
Getter404: Two? Marvel Champions tho
ButterBall000: In the end Disney will own everyhing
Tiber727: And a board game - Villainous
JonnyGlitched: Getting Leia'd twice in one night?!
James_the_Dabbler: Three, technically. Disney owns Hasbro owns WoTC owns MtG
