We are 5 guys from MN who love Star Wars Destiny.
We first started playing together when we began play testing in anticipation of Worlds 2017. We performed quite well, with all of us making the top 16. Post worlds, we had become friends and we decided to stick together and try our hands at content production with the Destiny Council Podcast. After a couple podcasts, we had many individual life events, and we kind of gave up on the podcast for a time. As Legacies began to get spoilers, we decided to try our hands at content production again, and we currently work on podcasts, deck techs, and live game play videos.
Competitive (Founding) Team:
At the Council’s roots is a competitive team seeking to perform as well as possible at any Destiny events they attend. They also provide competitive content in the form of articles, videos, and podcasts.
