I was just playing a game last night and telling the story of how some player's dice just don't show up and used this very channel as an example. #TeamDon members appreciate that week after week our Salt King shows up to rolls blanks against Joe's stupid rolls and usually takes the beatings with grace and style. Thanks for all you guys do!
If shilling out is asking questions to Will Squared to get the community answers and fun spoilers, then by all means shill away. The congenial way you all interacted in that interview is better than going hard at them and just getting blank stares in return. If each interview becomes confrontational then Don won't be the Salt King anymore and neither of the Wills will come back on. So shill away, keep making great battle reports, and thanks for keeping us in the loop.
Great match, even if the dice decided to blank more on ones side than the other 😁. One note you can use dauntless/compel even if the new amount of suppression is now enough to panic a unit. Since they have passed the panic step when that happens they still get their suppressed number of actions. I usually dauntless/compel move followed by a recover action to clear the suppression altogether.
That’s correct. What we were talking about if he panicking himself, he wouldn’t be scoring the points. That’s why he didn’t want to do it cause he needed to try to score/tie the points. Thanks -Joe
The Salt King showed good grace today, Joe's dice refusing to show any blanks most the time like Cassasin not killing Mark 2 would drive a lesser man to madness.
That was a rough game this time. Honestly, I'd be salty if I blanked that much too. Really enjoying the mirror matches and can't wait to see what's next. Keep up the great work!
Well. That was very one-sided. I had hoped Don would get another win for last year. Guess we have to hope for more wins this year. We don’t need The Salt King Strikes Back, nor The Return of Blanks. Thanks for the Space Balls quotes, Don. Made me smile.
Joe left Blanks on an island playing units he doesn’t normally. Sabine, Clan Wren, and Rebel troopers all ignored nimble. Also round 2 instead of moving suppressed Clan Wren they could have dauntless+recovered. In general I would suggest the Salt King start every game reminding himself to move closer to the objectives even if the cover is slightly worse. #TeamDon
I did remind him about nimble twice lol. And he could have dauntless and recovered he just didn’t think of that and in that moment I didn’t either. I agree he needs to moved on to the obj a bit earlier. Thanks! -Joe
I feel so bad for Ol' Blanks there. That kind of one-sided beating would make Salt Kings of us all. In other news, you should consider bringing on some of your Summer/Winter Cup folks in from time to time for more variety if you can.
I think it’s humorous that some people called you guys shills for interviewing the Wills at AMG. Both parties take the time to establish rapport, transparency and communication between developers and the community and people still complain. Seems a bit pathetic on their part and I assume things at home are not going well, but haters gonna hate I suppose. I agree with Don @ 5:56 if you think it’s AT-AT “then you are lost!!!” (angry Obi-Wan voice). It seems to me that how good Don’s (aka blanks aka salt king) rolls are to see who takes blue is a good indication of how well the game goes for him. Hope you guys had a great Christmas/Holidays and have an even better New Years!
Some people just really get upset seeing others enjoy the game, I guess. But I've been loving your content! And it's been a great introduction to me for both the game and the new edition.
I shall be a salt King if I don't get to see a CIS vs CIS game soon, lol. Always love seeing these games no mater what factions are played. Also, I don't think you talk to fast. I'm literally watching the video at 1.5 speed and am having no issues, lol. I watch at 2 times speed usually.
@graysquadrongaming8670 Ya, but I think I'm able to absorb it just as well as if it was at regular speed. Thankfully yall talk clearly so the words don't sound slurred together at that speed.
Yeah but you have to trigger the standby against what activates it so especially if boba is engaged with another unit it effectively makes that stand by much less effective
Hard not to be a salt king with all those blanks. Do think the forgotten keywords definitely made a difference in the early game as well. Don took a lot of damage in turn one with forgotten nimbles. Still enjoying the videos as always. Loving the mirror matches.
Clan wren didn’t take any damage until the end of the game. The rebel troopers missed out on one but they were over killed. But man don’s ark dice were not hitting and him holding back a turn to have to double move so many hurt him early. Thanks! -Joe
lol, I had Gray Leader on the back of my shirt. Long before the channel out local group was called gray squadron and we used to all travel around for tournaments. X wing was a very big game around her for a long time. Thanks! -Joe
Oh man, those white cover/saves were hot hot HOT at the start, then went to not not NOT! A little salty myself that Rebel Boba got bamboozled by the new edition, hoping he gets a similar glow-up like the somewhat spoiled Jyn. I'd love to see that independent: move on him as well!
0:45 why someone will call y’all shills boggles the mind. The interview was great and sorry you had some grinches. I am sure their opinions don’t represent the logic community.
Yeah I don't know which is worse, "Blanks" or "Salt King". But what I do know is that it is understandable, cause those dice did my man's wrong. Better luck next time Don.
I'm beginning to sense a pattern here... Should we expect GAR v GAR or CIS v CIS next? Also, certainly it's pronounced Ay-Tee Ay-Tee. Tarkin would never allow something silly like at-at. Not imposing enough.
Is he called the Salt King because of his salty tears when he rolls infinity blanks? Gosh I feel so bad for Don. Has he tried voodoo to break this curse?
Great stuff as always guys. Poor Dom missed a armour block and how did the mk11 manage to move then shoot the Wookiees with 4 blacks? They not cumbersome any more??

Thanks for the positive shilling
Tough game! Thanks for everything you do guys! Merry Christmas and a happy New Year!!!
Thanks for watching
Admittedly, if I rolled that many blanks I'd be a salt king too.
Haha
@@graysquadrongaming8670 I forgot to add, if you really want to see a Salt King, just point out that it's pronounced AT-AT, not AT-AT.
See your either right or wrong depending on how you read that
Great match, even if the dice decided to blank more on ones side than the other 😁.

@graysquadrongaming8670 if he dauntless moved then recovered he would have been able to score as he would have no longer been panicked

I feel for Don. Games where you roll blanks and your opponent doesn't makes any gamer salty.
For sure, thanks!
-Joe

Thanks for the Space Balls quotes, Don. Made me smile.
Haha thanks
What a spicy game! Seeing Ahsoka on the battlefield has me excited for her showing up in gar! Despite the salt king’s inevitable blanks.
Thanks for watching
Those blanks were painful, but it was fun to watch as always.
Thanks for watching

We will try

We’re glad you enjoy it
Thank you so much! Lots more to come!
-Joe
This was me yesterday. The dice gods blessed me with blanks instead of hits. I feel this pain.
I don’t ever get blessed with hits. What’s that like haha -Don
The old salt king shooting blanks, a true tragedy!
Good to see rebels get a win!
Thanks for watching
The Salt King rolled the dice. Hits he was expecting but blanks is what he received in this rebel skirmish match.
It’s so true
I shall be a salt King if I don't get to see a CIS vs CIS game soon, lol. Always love seeing these games no mater what factions are played.
Also, I don't think you talk to fast. I'm literally watching the video at 1.5 speed and am having no issues, lol. I watch at 2 times speed usually.

That’s great to hear, thanks!
-Joe
There is a reason the Salt King used to be known as Blanks. The most recent errata didn't effect Boba since he doesn't have charge anyways
Yeah but you have to trigger the standby against what activates it so especially if boba is engaged with another unit it effectively makes that stand by much less effective

Another fantastic batrep, long live the salt king ❤
Thanks for watching
So if Dons jersey said blanks, what was yours Joe....Crit King? Lol
lol, I had Gray Leader on the back of my shirt. Long before the channel out local group was called gray squadron and we used to all travel around for tournaments. X wing was a very big game around her for a long time. Thanks!
-Joe
Oh man, those white cover/saves were hot hot HOT at the start, then went to not not NOT!
A little salty myself that Rebel Boba got bamboozled by the new edition, hoping he gets a similar glow-up like the somewhat spoiled Jyn. I'd love to see that independent: move on him as well!
Thanks for watching
Those blanks were rough for the Salt King
They usually are
When I saw 55min, I suspected salt was in my immediate viewing future! BTW I like the interviews you do, ignore the hater BLANKS-BLANK-BLANKS!
Thanks for watching
First round poor Don forgot that those rebel troopers have NIMBLE to help stay alive with the dodge tokens
Nope I put the dodges on them, then used them, then they died
0:45 why someone will call y’all shills boggles the mind. The interview was great and sorry you had some grinches. I am sure their opinions don’t represent the logic community.
They don’t but it’s the ones that say something
@ yeah but you can’t own that someone didn’t hug them or kicked their dog when they were little.
Yeah I don't know which is worse, "Blanks" or "Salt King". But what I do know is that it is understandable, cause those dice did my man's wrong. Better luck next time Don.
Thanks for watching
Don Salt King of Blanks.... When the dice abandon you they really abandon you
They go all out
Some
Games the dice blanks just decide you need to go home early
That’s true
Blankety blank, all hail the salt king!
Thanks for watching
I'm beginning to sense a pattern here... Should we expect GAR v GAR or CIS v CIS next?
Also, certainly it's pronounced Ay-Tee Ay-Tee. Tarkin would never allow something silly like at-at. Not imposing enough.
Maybe we will have to see what’s next. And that’s correct pronunciation
Blanks! It happens
It sure does
Is he called the Salt King because of his salty tears when he rolls infinity blanks?
Gosh I feel so bad for Don. Has he tried voodoo to break this curse?
I need to
Those blanks were rough, my good sir. I don't care for the name Salt King. How about the Briny Baron.
lol classy
Great stuff as always guys. Poor Dom missed a armour block and how did the mk11 manage to move then shoot the Wookiees with 4 blacks? They not cumbersome any more??
They can shoot then move they changed cumbersome. We just film the move before we cut to the box for easy editing
Another fin vid xxxx
Hope you enjoyed it!
Pretty early in the video still but seems you guys forgot about nimble on both the rebel troopers and clan Wren.
I reminded Don about it, he is new to rebels and over looked it :) thanks!
-Joe
Is there a match where Don doesn’t have supernaturally bad luck rolling blanks?
I’d like to see that happen more -Don
@ listen don can have one loaded die to keep it interesting
Oh Don blanks again. Here's hoping 2025 is kinder to Don.
We can hope
Haven’t seen the whole video yet, but I bet the Rebel player will win
The rebels won for sure
I used to think it was funny but Im starting to feel bad for Blanks the Salt King...
Yeah his luck sometimes. That’s why we bring on guest people as well to mix it up. Look for one in next weeks episode!
-Joe
Don salty blanks. Don needs to play what he knows. He is at a disadvantage already with his dice rolling. Please make the games more even.
Sometimes it’s not even
Standing orders round 1 with rebels? Hmmmm
Sometimes it’s the way to go
It has to be pronounced Aye Tee Aye Tee, because otherwise trying to pronounce AT-ST would sound real silly.
Smart
