You know how I love my card games!!
Star Wars Unlimited is an all new one with some of the smoothest, most consistent gameplay I've seen in a card game yet. I've done some tournaments, drafts, casual games, and I can't get enough of it!

Any of you trying out the Star Wars Unlimited card game at all? I did a $5,000 tournament a week back and took... 9th. Tiebreakers kept me out of Top 8. 😭

@simplegarak Ай бұрын

Pro tip for you Jared (at least this is what I do) - when you need to set your hand aside to do thing, place the cards facedown on your deck, but rotate them 90 degrees. Keeps them from getting mixed up with resources or other stuff.

@lyvekis8824 Ай бұрын

I like the concept. The limited amount however will probably hurt it in the longterm if not changed.

@kerolothdernoth Ай бұрын

Hey man, glad you're enjoying it. I picked up a few boosters randomly at launch because I'm a cardboard crack addict of course, and a starter deck later I got hooked and got a few friends hooked as well. We now regularly have a group of 12-22ppl at our LGS, and with the SHD pre-release coming up I'm hyped beyond compare for the Jabba Showcase.

I've been loving it since way before it was even released, watching KZfaq videos about it since last November. This is such a good game. It is so well built. No losing to being mana short.

So even if it's not something I particularly care about, I still enjoying hearing his oftentimes very reasonable thoughts regarding the topic. Because he's seldom overly adoring or hateful about the things he discusses, and even when he is, he always presents a good reason for those feelings. Rather than just praising or hating for the sake of it, like I feel other KZfaqrs have a tendency to do.

I tried Flesh and Blood and I found it so damn stressful, man. It looks cool, but I'm not wired right for it. Everything down to the draw step being where it is makes me sweat that I'm not using my cards right, which is a thing in every TCG, but FaB makes it visceral to me for some reason. By the time the games end I feel like I need a smoke. I'm in a terrible place where the perfect game for me was Magic circa 2014/15 or so, and I don't know any game that's similar enough to Magic, but not taking inspiration from Commander. Magic feels like the soul died a corporate death, but other people who might agree with me there would pin that blame on wokeness or something. I don't wanna be in those guys's camp.

Fantasy Flight just knows how to make games. I've been playing their LCGs for a decade now, and they're all excellent. I miss Warhammer: 40k Conquest so much, but each new game is still excellently made and well thought out. Glad to see one finally getting more popular, as that was the fate of most of their card games, unfortunately.

I love this game, it's consistently fun and most of the time when I win or lose, it feels deserved. I'm currently maining a Luke/Green deck. Luke's not really played in my local stores too often (mostly Palps, Bobas, and Sabines) so I'm often catching people off guard when I start controlling the board with shielded sentinels and big heals/damage with Lukes, Home One, and Relentless. My main complaint about SWU is probably the artwork. I hope that when they reprint set 1, they add alternate art versions in the mix.

Well mtg has had the double sided lands for a while as well which is Basically the same as being able to play your cards as resources, it's just not All cards. This sounds fun but it also inevitably makes decks a lot more consistent, which narrows the design space a little bit since introducing cards that are "hard to play" becomes a lot less risky.
