I'M GOING TO WORLDS! PQ Finalist Tourney Report | Star Wars Unlimited
This past Saturday I managed to make the finals of the PQ in Ankeny, IA! My opponent had already won a PQ previously, meaning the day 1 bye at the Galactic Championship was passed down to the other finalist... me! I'm very grateful an consider myself especially lucky, but I like to think there was at least a little bit of skill involved getting to the finals, so I hope you enjoy this tourney recap!

Welcome back! Today I wanted to talk to you about my favorite deck from Twilight of the Republic so far, Quinlan Tarkintown! I think this deck is a little underexplored right now, and personally has a lot of my favorite cards. Plus, I share a last name with the leader, so how could I not!

DECKBUILDING THEORY - "Glue" vs "Spike" Cards | Star Wars Unlimited

I've been tinkering with a lot of decks lately, including my trusty Palpatine Green list, and in testing the deck I found myself sideboarding the same card in pretty much every game. I wondered if it should be in the main deck at that point but still think it is correct to be in the sideboard. However, that got me thinking about how I deckbuild and evaluate cards, and that is what I'm here to t...

    I got 2nd at a PQ yesterday with almost exactly this list. Wanted to test and change many things, but I think almost any change would’ve made the list worse. The only change I made, which I still stand by, is 1 grogu for 1 R2 (set 3), because it makes the sideboard map better (you still get 10 solid 2-drops in matchups where you take out grogus) The only card I’m still unsure about is waylay. Open fire might be better than the 2 waylays in the side, but lurking tie and both 6costs ships that jango uses scare the shit out of me.

    I ran a rebels package Quinlan at last week’s weekly play, and it was super competitive. Games I lost felt like user error, since it was the first time playing it. Qi’ra was a rock star. It throws such an obnoxious wrench in your opponent’s plans. She’ll be a mainstay in yellow hero decks for a while I think.

    • @MickeydSWU
      @MickeydSWU Місяць тому

      @ObiWanKainobi_III Honestly pretty interchangeable, but there are fringe cases where being able to return your own unit to hand is helpful (letting falcon attack again, removing a bounty from one of your units)

    • @brandonjohnson9876
      @brandonjohnson9876 Місяць тому

      Bounties aren’t terribly common, so you don’t get any benefit from that. And waylay has other synergies. Waylay can return your own units, which while probably not going to be useful in most games, it gives you some flexibility. You could waylay a damaged Han to ambush it in again on a future turn.

  • @brandoncavin7878
    @brandoncavin7878 Місяць тому

    Love the video bro, but Im pretty sure the Han/Quinlan interaction doesn't work that way. When you play Han, you have to fully resolve his effects before you can trigger Quinlans effect. This means you have to ambush with Han before you can trigger your leader. Just like how Bossk unit from set 1 works when you play an event card.

    • @MickeydSWU
      @MickeydSWU Місяць тому

      @brandoncavin7878 its more akin to the cad leader plus ambush - the when played and ambush are happening at the same time so you get to choose the order which they happen. It's different than bossk unit plus events because since han is a unit he has "been resolved" just by entering play, and the ambush trigger happens after he's resolved. Events work differently since they aren't entering play, they just have an effect. Not a judge by any means, but thats my interpretation- all I know is that it does work though.

    • @brandoncavin7878
      @brandoncavin7878 Місяць тому

      @@MickeydSWU Yes, but what I am saying is you cannot play Han, then activate quinlan's ability to ping 1, then ambush with Han. You have to decide to ambush with Han once you play him, then trigger quinlan afterwards. This is why you have seen people cutting Han from the list, because their misunderstanding of the rules are being corrected at the tournaments.

    • @baldo7646
      @baldo7646 Місяць тому

      it works, Han solo ambush triggers "after you play" him. Quinlan ability triggers "when you play", so you play Han, Quinlan pings, ambush triggers, you ready Han and attack the unit.

Boba and Sabine will still be a big problem but hopefully next set balances the game more.

I have played him seven times and have failed to finish the three-win simulation. His flip side is amazing. When you get his flip side and if he can stay alive, you can win that game. His leader side sucks. You end up playing off tempo just to do damage and it creates an opening for your opponent that is just hard to come back from
