    I weant to 3 store champs in portland, one I did really bad at and 2 I did pretty well at. first one was padawans 1st place, cad/snoke 2nd place, and top 4 was boba/seventh and thrawn/snoke I believe. Next one was one that I topped with 4-wide vehicles(anakin/hiredgun/rookie/guard) as well as a cad/snoke. Kylo snoke won in the end over thrawn snoke. The last one was the coolest one. top 4 was kylo/pryce and wedge/rose/hired gun. I got second with the same team. The winner was DJ/Talzin/Ciena (one die each). he was undefeted all day except for game 2 of the finals against me.

    This was so great! Have listened a couple times already. I'm new to Destiny and it's also the first deck building game I've played so it's really useful for me to hear people talking about the basics. Experts often neglect this stuff because they always assume they're speaking to people who are already really knowledgable. Of course that has its place, but it's really nice to have content like this that allows us newbies to feel like a part of what's going on, and so we can believe we have a chance of catching up too :) . Thanks KOR and SOM!

    what does mid-range mean? I've heard the term a lot but I'm not sure what it actually means

    • @KnightsofRenPodcast
      @KnightsofRenPodcast Před 6 lety

      Darth CZcams generally referencing mid-range in the game. So aggro decks want to kill you turn 1-2. Mid-range wants to setup so they kill you turn 3-4 with overwhelming dice, damage and upgrades.

  • @MrKkrraattooss
    @MrKkrraattooss Před 6 lety

    Why do they not release an official online game? Love the game but cant find people to play with They could add code cards into boosters and in game coin to get boosters

    • @KnightsofRenPodcast
      @KnightsofRenPodcast Před 6 lety

      MrKkrraattooss that’s a good question. It might be difficult with an analog community and digital community. Since the major tournaments would likely be analog, having to buy two sets of the same cards would be tricky and not very player friendly. I’d wager the programming, server side workers needed and staff to keep the digital game running smoothly isn’t in the budget for FFG.

    • @MrKkrraattooss
      @MrKkrraattooss Před 6 lety

      They could make it like the Pokemon Company Tournaments are still analog but they also have an online game. If you buy a physicall booster you get one additional card that contains a code to redeem in the online game to get a additional booster online I would be so happy

    • @KnightsofRenPodcast
      @KnightsofRenPodcast Před 6 lety

      MrKkrraattooss it’s possible. Although it would require the player base to buy a second copy of their collection. And if the prizes are digital vs analog that might be a hard sell. It’s possible but at this point unclear if the community wants/needs a digital version of Destiny.

    Formidable question if you move a weapon that says "Blue character only", to an opponents non Blue Character, does that me they can't roll it anymore? or are you not allowed to move it to a non-blue character

    • @KnightsofRenPodcast
      @KnightsofRenPodcast Před 6 lety

      Yes you can move “blue character only” upgrades to a non blue character. That’s only a play restriction. Once the card is on the table it doesn’t care what character it’s attached to.

    • @schmelzwah
      @schmelzwah Před 6 lety

      Same dont forget to include New Orders just in case they decide not to let you have your battlefield, or just so you can choose theirs and still get your claim ability.

    • @KnightsofRenPodcast
      @KnightsofRenPodcast Před 6 lety

      schmelzwah agreed. Or Hyperspace Jump if you’re running yellow.

    • @schmelzwah
      @schmelzwah Před 6 lety

      But if you are running yellow Luke's ability doesnt really work unless its a 3 character deck (Jedi instructor, Ezra for example) because Luke's ability only allows him to move abilities to other blue characters. Edit: this is why Luke is going to be good, but still very limited because his ability and cost does pigeon hole him a little bit.

    • @KnightsofRenPodcast
      @KnightsofRenPodcast Před 6 lety

      schmelzwah right. I was thinking Padawan/Luke3/Jar Jar. Not a perfect team comp. But gives you colors, bodies and dice.

    @jdub-replicant Před 6 lety

    thanks for sharing the great content today... lots of decks to have to consider while building a 30card deck now... re: potential cards to play against OTK in addition to Coercion u can play Lure, it can help forcing 7th to activate before getting their upgrade on and/or activating Ciena to block leadership play... goal being to mess with their play order. using "vandalize" to discard their upgrades helps. OTK also uses "cheat" to grab those leadership, rise again, and others from discard so using cheat in your deck can help as well for grabbing Lure and vandalize again.... moving OTK's upgrades around with battlefield Cargo Hold is an option... and if they're playing anaxes u can use new orders to adjust for that. just some thoughts. also was trying to figure out a combo using friends in low places to see if they have price of failure in hand (usually likely around 2nd or 3rd rd) and using infamous to ambush and then run coercion forcing them to have to either pass or run it...

    I've supported, shared and religiously listened to this show from day 1. But in the past month to month and a half it has become unlistenable. I CAN NOT and will not listen to another weeks episode where Jay goes on a 20+ minute solo conversation. The shows of late have become the same old boring format of what did Jay do this week. Oh now what did Rick do. And then Sugi pumps in your thoughts and ideas throughout. It's predictable and stagnant. Thank you for the entertainment you have provided me thus far and I wish The Knights of Ren podcast all the best.

  • @OpticalResonator
    @OpticalResonator Před 7 lety

    To me 305- (Let the hate flow through you)is by far the worst podcast you have put out to date. It's really frustrating because there are so few people honestly evaluating the situation, and this podcast is another failed attempt. 2/3 members spend all their time making excuses, challenging new players to "get good", or just lying and saying it's not a problem. Everyone who says based on the KOR SC tracker thread on the FFG forums (which is a fun tool to see what's going on outside your local meta but a HORRIBLE tool to do any kind of actual meta analysis) that Poe/Maz as lost potency in the SC meta is either lying or not actually paying attention. In the most recent round of posts Poe Maz won the most events, had the most decks in the cut, and had twice the wins of the next best performer. It hasn't gone anywhere, and without errata it will still be the best performing deck. The podcast starts with Jay's excuses for "why" the meta is toxic to the games health (never actually suggesting maybe the legal card pool is not balanced enough to the mechanics). He will admit that things are wrong, but down plays how badly. Rick on the other hand just denies there is a problem. I think what best characterizes my feeling about how poorly the cast actually approaches the community discussion about the meta, the general direction of the game, and the health of the game is Rick's final thoughts. The game is so unhealthy that he suggests if you plan to play in a tournament (which is the overwhelmingly the only available avenue for most players given the small size of the player base relative to other games) you have to build a deck that can beat Poe Maz, Vader Raider, and ePalp consistently (which by the way would be the new most OP deck). If you do that you can expect to have fun and win, otherwise you can expect to not have fun and/or lose. That sounds like a really terrible game to invest in. Personally I love the game, I thinks it's fun, but it's currently in a bad spot for the health of the game. There is way to many elements working against it internally right now. Thanks to Sugi, his final thoughts were what I expected from this podcast on this subject. He was pragmatic but didn't shy away from actually addressing the problems as real problems, but it comes after an hour of the opposite.

      You are correct, I was wrong about that for some reason I thought you made it not Dhaus. My mistake. I don't think I was mistaken in the rest of my comment but rereading my post it does come off overly harsh. I think that's the only time I got mad listening to your podcast which I like a lot and appreciate you guys doing. I think it just reminds me of a terrible habit of gamers to excuse or deny the negative aspects of a game they love to not risk making it unappealing to other players. I find it really impossible to believe that smart people can analyze the current state of the game and come up with "it's fine, and if it's not it might get better...shrug". So yeah I am sorry that my comment comes off harsh, but I stand behind what I said. I just didn't mean for it to sound so personal, and it wasnt, just really aggravating content for someone who cares about the game and it's health. I spent a lot of money on cards I barely get to use and when I do it's usually not playing the interesting game I bought into.

    Love the podcast, only complaint is the animals shrieking in the background the whole time.
