The Portland regional is over and we saw a lot of interesting decks make the top cut but the most interesting character to surface was Hondo Ohnaka. Hondo was seen in three of the top eight decks with two unique partners, Poe 2 and Yoda. The finals of the tournament were the most interesting though. A Hero mill deck with Yoda/Partisan/Rieekan went up against Poe2/Hondo and we talk about those matchups with our special guest Rebel Grey!

PAX unplugged is coming up very soon and we are giving away a EaW booster box at our second Happy Hour event, PLUS Todd has a new online store with a special discount for our listeners. Check him out at https://www.totalaccessgames.com/.

Anakin Skywalker? You’re fired.

https://artificery.c...er-youre-fired/

Conflicted Apprentice? It’s no wonder he’s conflicted. Poor Anakin. He so wants to be the hero, like we all do. But when we’re left with this decision, I am in no way surprised that he gave in to the dark side. When it comes to competitive play, we all do in the end.

I covered the issues with The Rivals box and draft as an entity last time out. My whinging took over though, and I ran out of column inches to actually discuss the cards themselves. It’s probably a good job really because Anakin is more annoying in his neutral cardboard form than he is in his Hayden Christensen cardboard actor form.

But let’s not jump the blaster. He will have his time in due course.
