What's a good way of countering repair units without any of my own? As far as i can tell, it's basically an instant loss because they can afford to chip damage on your turrets at no cost to them as long as they play safe

X-wing/TIE or one of the AOE bomb things (electric or poison). Preferably when there's other units in the area but sometimes it's worth it if they're going to bring a near dead tower back. If you're rebels there's also always the drop pod.

Apparently I took X-wings out of my deck and, as such, completely forgot they existed. Good job me.

In less shameful topics, Ezra and Kanan are really fun. Had a few deaths where someone has run past me as I've been meleeing them, making Ezra flip backwards into turret range to shoot them before I've noticed, which sucks. But there have also been a surprising number of heroes who attempt to shoot Kanan down and end up dying to deflected bolts, which is amazing.

I remember Kanan being super inconsistent on when he'd deflect and when he'd just eat poo poo and die, but I haven't used him since like 3-4 updates ago.

Sweet jumping jesus this is a difficult game to jump back into after a break. Probably doesn't help that I took the break right after I pushed my tier level up to the highest I ever had it.

Post yr decks so I can copy them and have fun again

I've hardly been playing (and it seems to be the case for most of OldGoonPublic infact) but when I do I usually rock 2v2 normal matches.

As such I'm currently using

This game is just brutal to come back to. Everyone has a L3 or L4 hero and L13 cards while I'm at L2 and mostly L11 cards.

Prequel heroes are pretty drat fun. Anakin goes super loving hard and performs even at level one. Having the attack speed steroid for free instead of on a card changes SO MUCH. I've fought some Yodas and he seems really strong.

Grievous is alright. He has a crazy unique and synergizes with Droids which rules. I love him, though. And Maul's gimmick is dumb but surprisingly effective.

I’m guessing by the lack of activity in here that this game is completely dead on the Goon front?

Having just recently got back into game, on the goon front it does seem pretty dead. But there have been a lot of additions since the last time i played! Messing around with Clone Wars era cards is pretty neat, even if the AT-RT walkers are freaking rediculous.

Oh snap, new trilogy heroes and troops got added? How are they? Any standouts or any of them especially op?

I’m at 11 three star on dark side and 8 one star in light side. I try not to take it all to seriously. In 2v2, I’ve been running Bodhi with basically all the bombardment cards. I’ve had fun with that. Long term, I’ll need to switch to Poe for his energy reduction for starfighters. That said, I have not gotten any of the new movie heroes. First Order troops so far seem pretty strong. Not impressed with the resistance as much.

I played again a few times with an old rear end Cassian/K2 deck that i didnt adjust at all since I last played and still won more than I lost. The extra effect from all my cards coming from the old set probably helps.

The old powerful cards are still pretty powerful, it's just that in general a newer card is going to be just as or even more effective at a lower level than most of the older cards are going to be in the 10-13 range that most people probably have them at.

Yeah im kinda back into this now, it's a good game and there seems to be enough units, hero's, and new folks playing that you dont run into netdecks all day (at least at tier 7). I'm slowly trying to test new units.

I saw a Lando deck earlier that was just chock full of cheap sprinter types and he barfed out the most amazing zerg rushes ive ever seen. It didnt really work against a relatively balanced Krennic but it was fun to watch.

My new (actually old but back again) passion is a Leia deck that focus on covering for busted Gronk droids. Walkspeed uber alles.

Trashing people with vanilla Vader is also still very fun. The new folks dont seem to gently caress with stun grenades any more for some reason.

I've tried them quite a few times ( just tried them again in your decks ) and I can never find anyone retarded enough to take more than one gonk droid. For the same price, I'd just go Rocket troopers because they can also hit AT-ST/whatever other vehicle bullshit.

I feel like ahsoka hits like a loving bus every time I fight Anakin. That card is more dangerous than the player using it sometimes.

One fun trick: drop one immediately after K2SO pulls aggro from a hero/baddies and target the hero

Other than that idk, I just drop them whenever i feel rich enough to waste some energy or when i think the person is too focussed on one side. Sometimes it's more about him being a cheap must-deal-with distraction than actually getting on the turret. I've always been a big fan of giving my opponent a lot to think about in 1v1 games and in this game sometimes that just means reminding someone they have two lanes to protect.

Rocket guys do own though, i just never use the rebel version.

Pretty sure all the rocket guys do AOE damage on hit now? At least i know the Imperial version does because i've seen them hit AT-RT's before
