A Tale of Victory – Andrew Rothermel Tournament Report

October 30, 2019 · by masterluk126

Worlds 2019, was quite memorable. But possibly for none of the expected reasons. 

I’d been planning on Chopper for quite some time leading up to the event, basically since popular opinion had said Satine was the better yellow (gotta stick up for my main man). Played three pods, to 8-1 overall, which felt decent. My one loss was to the legendary Cuenca delving a Fist turn 1. But I also had a scare vs the standard Reylo matchup, (which was harrowingly close) and it pushed me to reconsider the blue titan.

Rolled in Thursday with the intent of finalizing my Reylo list. Played one pod, had a matchup vs the 8-0 Hunter on Aphra, and he literally dropped BT, Trip 0, AND Megablasters, turn 1.

Let’s just say, that’s the game that I won.

The other two matchups I got smoked. Turns out Delve Fist turn 1 is good and Rey’s special is removable. Who knew. :’)  At this point, I was officially off Reylo and on something that could beat Delve Fist.

Re-enter the master of versatility himself, C-C-C-C-Chopper. This little guy is Jango Fett, if Jango Fett could recur stuff, namely melee Dh-17’s, hello Grappling arm, and another card that’s arguably better. He also comes with Easy Pickings and Flee the Scene. Oh yeah. The fact that your opponents often shouldn’t target him first, is icing on the cake and also hilarious, in an evil master of villainy kind of way.

Top 64 Worlds Tournament Report – Rami Chehouri

October 28, 2019 · by masterluk126

Today’s article comes to you from Rami Chehouri, Destiny Council member and a key part of our core test group. He piloted Han Droids to a Top 64 finish at Worlds, where he was knocked out by Mike Gemme. Read on for his recounting of the action!

First and foremost, I want to congratulate my teammate Andrew on his worlds win. He’s a really talented player, and he constantly makes you consider scraping your deck after testing against him. Andrew and I were pretty set on chopper weeks before worlds. I dabbled with Reylo and 4LOM a bit but both felt underwhelming. We had a prime the weekend before and decided to just play Reylo to keep the list off streams. Of course Andrew took me out in the cut of the prime. Luke’s Han deck had started coming to form a couple weeks before worlds and after the prime win, I wanted to explore it further. After some testing games, I decided I wanted to play Han. Partly because the Reylo matchup felt much easier than with chopper. Roy Wilkins Auditorium is only about 2 miles from my house, so I was able to grab a Lime and scooter back and forth.

Road to Worlds 2019 – Holocron Changes

September 25, 2019 · by masterluk126

Holocron changes are on the way, and they are significant enough to impact the Worlds meta. The changes are:

+1 BOF to C-3PO
Errata to Wat Tambor, so that his Power Action only works with Red supports
Ewok Warrior and Arena of Death restricted so that you cannot play them together
DDO added to the restricted list, so that you cannot play it with C-3PO
Phasma2 removed from BOF

Road to Worlds 2019 – eJabba/Wat/Sentinel

September 15, 2019 · by masterluk126

Ever since Snoke stepped onto the scene, big villain supports has been a prominent archetype in the Destiny meta. This culminated with the dominance of Snoke/Watto/FOST in the Convergence meta. But with nerfs to Snoke and Watto, and the introduction of Desperate Measures as an easy way to blow up those big supports, there was a question mark as to whether or not these decks would continue to be a force in the meta. We should never have doubted. eJabba/Wat/Sentinel has become the big villain support lineup of choice, and it has seen multiple decks in the top cut of Gen Con, Euros, and Nova. I consider it one of the top 3 decks in the format, and it’s one that should most certainly be included in your gauntlet as you prepare for Worlds!

Road to Worlds 2019 – Han Droids

August 18, 2019 · by masterluk126

You may remember a series of articles we did leading up to last year’s worlds (a long time ago, I know!), in which we profiled decks we expected to see at worlds. Since we’re unlikely to see a new set before Worlds and Gen Con has given us an idea what to expect in this sets meta, it’s time to begin Worlds prep again! Today will be the first in this years Road to Worlds series, in which we attempt to profile as many of the meta decks as we can – giving overviews, evaluating strengths and weaknesses, and looking at matchups against other meta decks. I’m starting with Han Droids, because it’s the deck I played at Gen Con, and thus the one I know the most about! The deck didn’t have a great performance at Gen Con, but the deck IS strong, and fills one corner of what I would consider the droid trifecta: Satine Droids (ramp/support), Chopper Droids (control), and Han Droids (aggro).
