a great card in the mon mothma slot is regional governor, we play a sentinel every turn which can protect the governor better than most decks. It feels great to turn off power of the dark side, superlaser tech, boba fett, and A-Wing on turn 1 and slow down our opponent while we build our board.
If we think it's relevant competitively we will probably take a look. We test extensively before we do a video and any time we grind with palpatine it doesn't go well. We don't want to recommend decks that lose so unless we feel like we have a deck in a good spot we probably won't make a video. That said we will eventually have one it's just not where it needs to be to warrant priority with tournaments starting soon.
Definitely looking forward to seeing the development of chewie. Very interesting leader that I think most of us wrote off at the start. (Maybe not but I did). Also tried this list with wing leader it just felt right. Never thought about the wedge. That's spicy
Great Content, thanks a lot! Based on the Sideboard guide, except of aggro Yoda goes everytime out and Vanquish in. Wouldn't this be an indicator that the composition should be vice versa?
Will said it right. I love my matchup into those other decks, so I'd rather be pre-boarded for my bad matchup and be happy to swap them out. Yoda is still really good in all of those matchups so I'm never sad to see him, but I'd cry if I drew 3 vanquishes vs. Sabine.
Governor is terrific with Chewie. Being able to name something, then play another sentinel to the ground to make it more difficult to remove Governor is sweet. I tend to lean more aggro, no matter what game I'm playing, so I landed on Aggression Chewie. For Heroic Command/Vigilance I really like Leia
@@SWU_KTOD ok let me get signed into an online deckbuilder and I'll send a link once I've converted it. Ok I posted it over on the SWUDB, labeled as Chewie's Space Race
Keep in mind it's what I managed to put together with 2 pre-release kits and a couple boosters. It's missing some stuff, but, the general strategy seems to be sound, so far
R2D2 is quite important since you can get it back from discard to be played multiple times, and that 1 cost is way better than cost 2 when played multiples times
@@SWU_KTOD yeah. not the best, but having a 1 drop to set a sentinel when you only have 1 resource free... on later turns is a sub par sentinel to get a better play
Any thoughts about rebel assault? Changes the math on your one attack units and can help you fight over initiative. Dodonna is another card that seems interesting. Even though he rarely lives your opponent has to kill him and almost serves as a sentinel without the keyword. On paper boba seems like a nightmare even when he doesnt ramp. That steadfast or bossk into firespray the next turn just seems insurmountable.
Haven't lost any games to boba yet but only played a handful. Dodonna a little slow since we can't make him a sentinel I think he's a pass for me. Rebel assault is def interesting I just don't know where it'd fit and our prio is making awkward combat and wing leader/fleet LT just do it better.
I think wing leader is an acceptable cut esp in a tourney setting where you can expect a lot of boba and iden green which play traitorous because blue green hero has to rely on confiscate and if you go marine wing leader into an opp who ramps initiative then steals its kinda brutal Also i do think theres a lot of power in r2 as 1c because it slots into turns nicely like on 8 you can r2 sentinel and when the opp clears him luke gets the full -6/-6
With the recent love for playing dual aspect cards these days, do you think there is a place for Vigilance in this deck deck? If so, what would you drop? Any other changes you’d make as you’ve gotten more experience with it?
It is definitely worth trying! We provide updates decklists in our patreon discord. It is quite active and people have been trying out chewie and making changes for sure.
I feel good about it, I think I highlighted exactly why that is in the two slides about it. I think those cards are obviously stronger when they buff a leader but when your deck is all rebels you can find spots for it.
@@SWU_KTOD yes thank you. i saw that part but honestly I asked because i was genuinely hoping for a more in depth comment about it. How you manage to control four or five 9/10 ships, 3 vader, overwhelmings, maybe 8 cost walker or vanquish all in the same ramping iden but better krennic or tarkin blu deck?
Around 8 minutes you mentioned "if you haven't pulled Home One or Luke yet" - I think an awesome video, especially while the game is so new, would be to go over some really easy replacement cards for the hard to find Legendaries/rares like Boba, Darth, Luke, Home One, Red Three Unstop, etc.
Can you explain why 'Make an opening' is good against Boba decks? Ive never actually used that card. I thought it was almost a waste of 3 cost.@@SWU_KTOD
People still asking if they can attack with exhausted units, once they catch up on game experience/knowledge they will start seeing ECL for what it is.
Great deck tech… Bonus points for saying “shaving the event package” and keeping a straight face.
I also said we don't have a big package at some point and I really almost lost it
A consummate professional

I was thinking this to protect against change of heart as well!
Your deck techs are getting to Kibler level. Very impressive, thank you.
That's high praise!
This is some fantastic content! Going above and beyond with the side boarding screen is so nice of you! We subbed!
Thanks so much that means a lot! Glad everyone is loving the sideboard guide!
Love seeing how passionate you are to tinker and experiment with lists. Another great video. LOVE the visual SB guide. Great addition.
Thanks for the kind words!
Your sideboard plan is amazing. Keep up the good work.
Thanks!! I appreciate you dropping a line
Deck Tech… BOOM! Well done as always.
I caved and did one!
When are you guys gonna make a Palpatine video?? 🙏🏻🙏🏻

I only have him as a 1-of but he's been good
Great deck, I love playing with decks that are less common, keeping things fresh. I struggle with Chewie’s leader art tho, just puts me off a bit.
I get that. I actually love it, but I get it. I like how stylized it is but still has a ton of detail.
Great Content, thanks a lot! Based on the Sideboard guide, except of aggro Yoda goes everytime out and Vanquish in. Wouldn't this be an indicator that the composition should be vice versa?
Aggro is his toughest matchup. Going down 0-1 before getting Yoda in is risky.
Will said it right. I love my matchup into those other decks, so I'd rather be pre-boarded for my bad matchup and be happy to swap them out. Yoda is still really good in all of those matchups so I'm never sad to see him, but I'd cry if I drew 3 vanquishes vs. Sabine.
BOBBY I WAS SUPPOSED TO BE THE COOL GUY RUNNING CHEWIE ON TUESDAY. NOW EVERYONE KNOWS!
Nnooooooooo
Would love to see some gameplay here and your thought process. Also work some magic to figure out a palpatine deck please!
Already have some games recorded from our last local so keep an eye on our channel as we go through the editing process.

Great video! Do you know if you pull wedge from home one, can home one still use ambush?
I'm not sure! I'll find out
No the effect triggers after wedge is played, Home One was already on the field.
@@DJSerpent Makes sense, I was walking into Dune 2 and didn't wanna get it wrong so thanks for fielding my punt ;)
no problems!@@SWU_KTOD
Thanks for the info!
Why not run Redemtion for quick healing? I find im often too behind for Home One to make an impact.
I don't think this deck falls behind like the other blue green decks but if you think that's better you should do it.
Must have some gameplayssszzz I have a somewhat similar list and doing very good against Boba and Sabine but somewhat failing against Thrawn/Iden
We recorded an event at our LGS last weekend and there are two Chewie games for you to watch. Stay tuned!
I think wing leader is an acceptable cut esp in a tourney setting where you can expect a lot of boba and iden green which play traitorous because blue green hero has to rely on confiscate and if you go marine wing leader into an opp who ramps initiative then steals its kinda brutal
Also i do think theres a lot of power in r2 as 1c because it slots into turns nicely like on 8 you can r2 sentinel and when the opp clears him luke gets the full -6/-6
Definitely some good consideration there

How do you feel about running wing leader with a leader that isn’t a rebel? Is that ever a reason to it. Same thing with Tie Advanced and imperials
I feel good about it, I think I highlighted exactly why that is in the two slides about it. I think those cards are obviously stronger when they buff a leader but when your deck is all rebels you can find spots for it.
God I wanna run this deck. Any replacments If i don't have any lukes?
No real replacement for Luke he's too pushed but you could run some obis or something
Is this viable with only 1 Luke and if so what would be the 2 replacement cards?
What about match up with dark side green/blue control?
Late game they are better then you and you can’t aggro them, am I wrong?
I address that matchup and that incorrect perspective at around 9:36 in this video if you want to check it out.
@@SWU_KTOD yes thank you. i saw that part but honestly I asked because i was genuinely hoping for a more in depth comment about it. How you manage to control four or five 9/10 ships, 3 vader, overwhelmings, maybe 8 cost walker or vanquish all in the same ramping iden but better krennic or tarkin blu deck?
Colonel Yularen is great even late game with U-Wing you can heal for 3 then hit for 3 with Ackbar.
Great call
I want to see Chewy work with set 2!!!!!!!
whats a budget replacement for home one?
There isn't really one. Nothing else does what it does.
@@SWU_KTOD haven’t pulled any copies of it but I might pick up the singles
Yeah I’ve been playing chewy at locals and have landed on basically a similar list, funny
Nice, hope you're crushing!
Around 8 minutes you mentioned "if you haven't pulled Home One or Luke yet" - I think an awesome video, especially while the game is so new, would be to go over some really easy replacement cards for the hard to find Legendaries/rares like Boba, Darth, Luke, Home One, Red Three Unstop, etc.
I appreciate the comment. Unfortunately nothing can replace Luke, there's nothing remotely that powerful. You could run redemption over home one.
Ive been saying Chewy is a beast! But everyone wants to go Boba lol.
Genius !
Can you explain why 'Make an opening' is good against Boba decks? Ive never actually used that card. I thought it was almost a waste of 3 cost.@@SWU_KTOD
Bobby "Google Slides" Sapphire!
Bro I LOVE Google slides I can't get enough
At about 12.40, you're talking about Yoda as a 4 health SENTINEL. What am I missing here?
You're missing Chewbacca's ability.
Thx for clarifying.
People still asking if they can attack with exhausted units, once they catch up on game experience/knowledge they will start seeing ECL for what it is.
what is ecl
@@aFLICKINGCLINT energy conversion lab the green base that gives a unit ambush
You have three r2 in your side but don’t add him to any of the meta matchups you covered?
I do he's listed as "3x Two Drops" - in the video I discuss why it might be R2 and why you might use others.
Just 23 likes in the first hour? Come on man, those are wookie numbers.
You spelled wookiee wrong!
@@SWU_KTOD Lol. I’m equal parts sad the joke didn’t land, but pleased I don’t know that kinda stuff 😂
10/10 - would NOT play that aggro matchup again.
Lol! I actually lost to Sabine at GS last night!
