I played this exact strategy on Felttable earlier today, I had my Grogu up to an 8/16 with 3 shields! I was like oh this is broken… until you realize that the other card just released “Calculated Lethality” was designed with this type of stuff in mind. I had 5 upgrades on him. If he has let’s say just 1 Tie Fighter in space and used Calc Lethal on me, then he now kills my Grogu and his Tie fighter is now a 7/6 turn 3. It was super fun playing with Grogu but there will be many counters to him I’m guessing. Also, a Waylay turn 2, although not as lethal, would still hinder the decks strategy. Anyways, I enjoyed your video! Very good insight!
I like the Tempo idea, I think the Yellow/Blue Mando could eventually find a home as a mid-range/control, leaning control side deck that outtempos slower decks. Just based on all the tapping and value you can generate with the blue and yellow cards we are seeing.
I stand by my earlier statement that Mando Blue is going to be a very low key surprise for a lot of people. Mando Security Complex is especially interesting since Shield Tokens also count as upgrades. So getting a Shield Token on a unit with SC gives you a potential 2-for-1 protection with Mando. Then you have things like the "Force Package" as you mentioned, Devotion (which is one of the most slept on blue cards imo), Entrench, and just a lot of really good upgrades in Blue.

Yea, hopefully they print some sort of protection for these types of strategies
@@VeiledShotSWU Hopefully not too much, I don't think it would be very enjoyable with turn 2, turn 3 6-6's in play everywhere.

Have you been able to throw together a deck list yet?

Yea, even things like The Force is With Me will trigger mando's ability.
show some game play already!! just ideas is lame!! test it and show us!!!
Well this one is a bit harder as the cards were not part of the mod on TTS yet so it was impossible to really play with it.
