With Yoda you can guarantee playing endless legions for 3 with you're my only hope once you are down to 5 health. I might try and make a deck based around that, with lots of expensive villiany units in the resources and play endless legions and make a crazy board.
Every time you say coordinate is not easy to trigger or "requires a lot of effort", I physically wince. I'll just reiterate that you (& many others) are underestimating coordinate in a big way, man. It makes sense if you're basing your opinion on evidence from sets 1 & 2 but we're entering an entirely different format with 257 cards specifically designed to make coordinate and exploit possible. In this case, past is not prologue & the current format is not the sample size to hypothesize from. Try to keep that in mind.
You have a valid opinion and by no means do you have to agree with me. I’m not yet seeing it as something super competitive but of course I’m not certain of that. No reason to wince either way!
The problem is all of the cards that have coordinate just aren’t that good… look at Anakin, 5 cost *coordinate* (draw a card)… if there was no coordinate on him he’d still be worse than Poe… luminara is a 7 cost *coordinate* grit, and a when played ability. If she always had grit she’d still be worse than Luke… The problem with coordinate isn’t necessarily that coordinate will be impossible to pull off. It’s that when you are able to pull it off, those cards are still just not as good as other cards we already have. Ki-Adi Mundi feels pretty good to me though. That might be the only coordinate card that is intriguing for me that I can think of
@@lukehicks1447 yeah this really isn't the case. You're judging a mechanic on a card by card basis without looking at the tools that exist within the mechanic. Ahsoka is a 5/6 leader on turn 4, yularen buffs your team, shaak ti makes clones, coruscant guard is a 2 mana 3/2 ambush, Cody gives the whole team +1/+1 and overwhelm, aayla secura kills without dying, anakin is just huge with relevant tags, echo is a 2 mana 4/4, kit fisto is a house thwt locks the ground down, etc. gotta stop looking at it card by card and look at it as a whole. Rex leader flips into two units and buffs your tokens. Coordinate is extremely synergistic and so far in our testing has been extremely easy to maintain reliably. Up until now, SWU has been a best in slot game. You play the best card in slot in your color pairs and you build a deck that works within that paradigm. Twilight changes the formula, introducing a synergistic model through a mechanic that is more than the sum of its parts. This is what the testing has shown thus far.
@@rezzytheskyguy Yularen is good. Shaak Ti has potential but she’s slow. The rest I cannot get behind. I’d be happy to be proven wrong, but the rest of those cards you mentioned look like poop. This game is about turn economy and banking on constantly having a board is a very risky thing to do when after every single one of your actions, your opponent gets to answer. I like your optimism, but you’re fighting an uphill battle. I’m taking my 4-K2SO, 5-Poe, 6-Wrecker over your 4-Shaak Ti, 5-Anakin, 6-Kit Fisto every day of the week… they’re just better cards even if you always have the coordinate active
Thank you for amazing content and analysis, love what you do!
@@divineoblivion1 much appreciated!

That is definitely a thing you can do!
Even yoda in the chirrut shell with force throws could be madness
1 thing you forgot about Grevious' Wheel Bike is that we have unit General Grevious (Blue/Villain). You can make him a 7/7 on turn 3.
Does brain invaders affect the entire game taking away leader abilities?
Only while they are in play.
You can bet I'm at least going to try and make Yoda mono-blue Mill happen
I am your father seems good with pre vizla
I’m very excited for yoda
Subjugating Starfighter looks really exciting to me. Ambush with Dooku into their turn 1 space unit, get a droid token as well? Yes please.
I talked myself in to liking it.
@@iamwooooo yeah saw that :)
I’m honestly extremely surprised this Dooku unit isn’t a legendary. Everything about him screams legendary to me.
He certainly could have been!
First to comment! #truefan

Brain Invader works ok with Kylo, but it's still a mediocre card at best.
