Top 10 Most Underrated Star Wars CCG Character Cards
Freakin ewoks, can't say I loved pulling these guys.
The mechanical depth of the game had to be increased to avoid useless cards. I think nerfing deployment rules for uniques would not only indirectly buff generics like troopers more while encouraging more traversal, which makes SWCCG so singular as a competitive card game.
Give all weapons, equipment and gear Deploy & Forfeit stats, just like with characters, ship or vehicles, except with much lower Forfeit values. Attrition is too OP of a mechanic not to have equippables buffer its devastation.
Yes, of course, there should be a rule for returning cards from one's hand into the Used Pile: it's called discarding. Discards should go to Used, not Lost. It increases the duration of the game but I don't see that as a negative if battles can be so catastrophic.
Tracking destinies is a big part of the skill in winning SWCCG games. I'd be reluctant to remove it from the meta for the sake of streamlining. I think instead adding turn timers to competitive (non-casual) games or in tournaments instead, especially if it's like timed chess where taking a faster turn preserves the surplus time for one's total.
Something like Commander Rules from MtG would be fun if incorporated into Objectives.
Players shouldn't be able to drain from their own locations. As a card game version of an RTS, it makes more sense treating enemy locations as capture points. Likewise, enemy locations shouldn't give you force points unless you have an uncontested presence there.
Star Trek has a Seed Phase that I think would be nice to implement in SWCCG: each player should seed with 3 sites. Systems should also be on a sideboard with at least one per parsec to avoid ships getting stuck.
Mulligans should be allowed at the expense of reducing max hand size by -1 per mulligan with no limit on number of mulligans.
Hands & Draws: hands should be discarded down to 7 (discard to Used Pile), drawing at least one card per Draw Phase should be required, hands strictly under 5 can draw as many as they need to get to 5, no hand can be less than 3 (as cards in hand aren't considered in one's force circulation). The idea for hand size and discarding should set a faster pace to the game. Hands that are too big slow things down with players sitting and reading text too much.
Retrieval is a great mechanic for comebacks that rubber-band a losing player to still be competitive to get back into the game if they're lucky. Keep retrieval as a mechanic but restrict to only be usable by whichever player is losing, that is, only if the player has the larger Lost Pile. That said, much like how you shouldn't be able to use a genie's lamp to wish for more wishes, retrieval should be once per game per card, which means those cards when used should be removed from the game.
Shuttling with vehicles or docking bays is a core feature of SWCCG that needed to be expanded upon and encouraged, not bypassed. I would ideally prefer the game space to fill up large poker tables when played at home in person, rather than GEMP.
The permanent pilot issue should be solved by removing it entirely from the game. Likewise, starfighter's hyperspeed should be disabled by default until an astromech droid is deployed. It's rough but it's right. SWCCG is basically an RTS version of a competitive card game, so there needs to be higher tech levels that are gated out from early game. This is the way.
I would also allow sacrificing unique gear, weapons, ships or vehicles to the Lost Pile in order to retrieve their matching unique characters from the Lost Pile into the Used Pile. Unique characters are a big part of the fun of the game, equipping them with their unique gear should be very powerful like a good hand in Poker, so being able to retrieve them for future play makes unique characters see more action without overpowering them. Because of the drain mechanic, having one's best uniques that one's whole deck is built around is just too random. Likewise, sacrificing their matching gear keeps those unique characters in the game while keeping them balanced. It's also a lot better than the latter editions pairing of unique characters with their ships or weapons, which I regard as extreme power-creep.
I would go the other way; remove permanent pilots entirely: no ships nor vehicles should have pilots by default. Instead, ships & vehicles should be more like upgrades to characters who pilot or drive them. By contrast, ships & vehicles should have higher destiny values. The idea here is for ships & vehicle combat to accelerate mid to late game battles, much like how in RTS games the ships & vehicles require going up the tech tree (e.g. Starcraft 2).
Sense & Alter could alternatively be nerfed by making them equippables only on jedi that only work at related or even just local & adjacent locations. I like this more local approach as it makes force powers like these something like local SAM batteries to local effects. In this way, table-wide effects are pretty much immune to Sense & Alter unless say the jedi is at a special location, such as a meditation chamber.
So many things; for starters: (1) require uncontested presence to drain at a location, (2) restrict deployment to at most 3 deployable cards per site, (3) restrict deployment to only uncontested sites, that is, sites without enemy presence, (4) make an exception: when replacing an enemy location with one's own, then and only then allow unlimited deployment for that turn at that location, (5) MtG's no more than 4 duplicates per deck.
I wish this channel made more videos.
What are your favorite homerules for SWCCG?
Love this energy about classic CCG's!
Stalker was pretty good in a probe droid deck with Piett. Get those two out and just flood the board with probes and their lasers lol. And probe droids could force drain.
I remember that working back in the day.. just on gemp seems like P-H or P-SE or P-DS2 nothing works except very formulaic mains/toys/same interrupts
lmao the level of rage that fatty has going through him when he dropped the Jawa Blaster had me rolling lmao.
WHY DIDNT SOMEONE AT DECIPHER SAY: WHY ARE WE PRINTING THIS CARD? CAN WE NOT?
17:00 "And then power 8 and ability 1." lmao
no one knows his name!
Obi + Rev + that stupid hut was so broken... Probe droid deck was completely warranted against it...
I dont think they balanced the game. Or anticipated the game to be so "gamified" as it is done on gemp, the meta has been completely squeezed
17:28 "You get three of these little bastards down..." LMAO
I'm stealing 'needlessly complicated' and adding that phrase to my daily vocabulary. I loved your general annoyance with creatures in this video... lol. I always thought the art was cool (with the creature coming out of the border) but I can say my friends and I NEVER played creatures. We didn't even understand how the hell they worked, ha. I remember my friend pulled a Rancor when I was spending the night (he went and bought a bunch of Jabba packs) and we were like, "OOOH RANCOR, COOL!" Then we kind of looked at it and I said, "What's it do?" My friend (who was more experienced in the game) replied: "Eh I dunno." And just went to another pack, LOL. I do remember we played later that night and I said, "Are you going to use the Rancor?" and he said, "I'm not playing Jabba's Palace and I don't have the other card to play him." And I was like, "oh..." It was one of the "Well get used to being disappointed" moments in life. That about sums up my experience with creatures in Star Wars CCG.... lol.
SWCCG is basically the needlessly complicated game - I dont think anyone in the 90s knew how to use creatures haha, i even forget and had to rewatch my own video... AHAH yep that rancor story, I might have to tell that story in a future video, classic
Gotten so used to no copyright music. That its almost shallow and capitalistic to have it. I like money. I like big butts. But your the only one who did it! The only CZcams to have copyright music. Pretty cool. Howd that work did you lose your channel cause if strikes? :( that would be f
haha they just demonetize me, fuck em
All I ever did was play this.. err I mean open this set. Love my Dad
Cloud City was the worst... SO many red cards... I'm prob. also partially biased because the number of flippin' packs I bought and never pulled a Boba Fett was maddening. Think as I kid I finally found a shop that sold singles and just bought the guy outright. The upside down and reverse cards were annoying as hell too.
Yeah what the! It's been a year! Make a jar jar video
IT WOULD BE 5 HOURS LONG!
I spent so much money as a kid trying to get Boba Fett at the mall game shop via packs... I swear I pulled every card BUT that damn card... and then finally found a store like 4 blocks away that sold singles and Boba was like $13 or something (price of around 5 card packs)... I was so annoyed lol. After I got Fett I never bought another CC pack because I think I had every single damn rare at that point. Cloud City WAY overdid it with the red cards, too... jeebus. They should've had a Vader (Dark Lord of the Sith version), R2, and Falcon in that set and maybe a couple stormtrooper uniques (just make it up). Maybe the stormtrooper that was in the dining room or interrogation room with Vader.
hahah totally had same thing happen buying pack after pack of dagobah... I agree DLOTS would have been such a cool addition to cloud city. I actually think every set should have a version of all mains
Matt is just dancing with a 4 lom with weapon card/toy/ life size something late at night Is your name Matt?
lieutenant cabbel, derek 'hobbie' kilvian, jeroen webb, talz. all cards my brother and I still put in decks today.
the gold standards!
One year later, still and still rewatching!
The sequel trilogy probably have a bunch of commander Nanas in it. ahahah ! Fatty you are a f legend!
"[...]is deploy[...]"? :D
Where have gone Fatty? It's been almost a year and I'm missing your videos! Best SWCCG content out there ;)
Just a classic masterpiece
Ahh yes the It could be worse / its worse wars... that was really big in the early versions before more significant strategies came to play. I recall that as a kid against my friends... we would stack like 3 copies of the its worse and try catch our buddies with the abusive it could be worse usage.. it also was great for destiny abuse lol..
Like the roast a card bit. Especially the evil dead easter egg. Klatu Barada Nikto
BACTA...
?
11:31 its Bacta... not baka!!! Lol Thank you for the list! I am working on getting the cruisers... having a bit of trouble ... also missing the masayna corvette( not on the list)
Man, its really to bad this game was put out of print. Biggest tragedy ever.
It's really to bad this game is no longer printed. I'd so buy it now and play it if the local card shops actually held tournies etc.
They really need to bring this game back; it was a great game.
Such a ride down memory lane. I used to camp out at Sentry Box in Calgary Alberta to play this on Saturday and Sunday. Was some of the most epic fun ever. It's really to bad they couldn't control the meta and had to errata so much stuff... but after that the loss of the printing rights or what have you. This game deserved better and should be started again.
I'm shocked that Clash of Sabers/You Are Beaten didn't make the list - they should be near the top. Even more so, Lateral Damage is such a killer! But my personal favorite is Power Pivot! Combine with Rapid Fire to surprise an opponent that is attacking. Add in Don't Underestimate Our Chances, and you can deliver a heck of a knockout punch.
Don't forget good old Momaw Nadon! And Jeroen Webb! Both are great dual purpose spies for light side, and neither is rare. I think Momaw Nadon is the only non-rare character in Premiere other than Owen Lars and Bo Shek that is ability 3 or higher. Jeroen Webb's spy pilot ability makes him arguably just as good or better than KFC (i.e. Legs).
The Premium Han is an alien, so he can make Bo Shuda work
That was a really funny intro. Having had this CCG in 1997-1998 this was a flashback for me.
Here's my rankings: Luke: 1. Luke With Lightsaber (So versatile! Great image too.) 2. Luke Skywalker, Jedi Knight (He is just so good, and my favorite image of them all - the outfit, the foliage, the LIGHTSABER!) 3. Luke Skywalker, Rebel Scout (The immune to Stomach, cancelling vehicles' immunity to attrition, and relocating Vader things are really beneficial.) 4. Master Luke (So good with Profit - he's free! I disagree on the image - I think it's great.) 5. Son Of Skywalker (The first big step up for Luke; as you say pulling his lightsaber is top notch.) 6. Luke Skywalker (He's versatile, but Hunt Down and BHBM really put a damper on using him for space.) 7. Commander Luke (Kinda sucks.) 8. Luke (I agree that he shouldn't have the deployment restriction - that was a mistake by Decipher.) Han: 1. TK-422 (So good as a spy; he's the best undercover spy in the game!) 2. Han With Heavy Blaster Pistol (Just too good. And my second favorite image.) 3. Han Solo (I know Captain Han is often better on the falcon. But he's deploy 3, forfeit 6, and his destiny redraw ability (plus his functionality with Stay Sharp! and I Have A Bad Feeling About This that all Hans have) makes him the best Han to play in a space weapons deck. He can pilot B-Wings! 4. Captain Han Solo (Needs no introduction.) 5. General Solo (Unless you're playing RST or TIGIH, he's too expensive to get out. 6. Han (Meh.)
