Regarding leaders, the current meta seems to indicate that a huge amount of the leaders (almost all of them) are quite viable in at least format. Additionally, because leader readiness speeds can vary greatly (anything from turn 3 to turn 7 so far) it very much changes the tempo of when leaders face each other. I really dig the leader mechanic because when the unit is out, it centralizes the conflict around that leader. But the game itself is so varied because as a whole it is not overcentralized around those leaders.
Great review! You bring up solid points and I share that same fear but I am hopeful it gains traction in the community. Having bought the starter set and a 24 booster box, I have a decent amount of cards to make a few decks and enjoy it even if it doesn't pop off but again, fingers crossed it does!
Amazing review! I completely agree with all of your points. Luckily for me I only really have 1 piece competing for my card game budget right now...and when I can actually get star wars boxes for reasonable prices (not like OP6 which is like $250) then I may have to shift to this game more
The big 5? 🤔 Mtg, Pokemon and?
usually Yugi-oh is the third big one and these are the classics that have endured the test of time. I guess he refers to Flesh & Blood and Lorcana as the other two "big ones". But honestly, it is still way to early to say if either of those will make it past a couple of years and I assume they both will be out of print in 5-10 years.
@@amtk5163FAB is already in year 4, so it went past the couple of years. I agree that in 5-10 years might be different
@@amtk5163 I totally forgot that Yugi-oh existed. Goes to show how big the jump is even among the top 3 games in the genre. Right now, the biggest games seem to be: 1) Magic, 2) Pokemon, 3) Yugi-oh, 4) Lorcana, 5) One Piece (another game I didn't know was a thing), 6) Flesh & Blood...and there are a handful of others, like Sorcery and KeyForge (and now Star Wars Unlimited) that are trying to carve out their little niche.
@@Webhead123is keyforge still a thing?
Honestly, your final miss is the main reason I'm not interested in SW:Unlimited. I have enough SW games I'm playing on top of playing Magic regularly. Also I was a little burned by Destiny (and also Decipher's SW CCG) as well, so I'm going to stay out of the TCG for now.
