GURI was designed for WHAT?! - IMPOSSIBLE Star Wars Trivia w/ @SeanTanktop Episode VI

Welcome to Episode 6 of Impossible Star Wars Trivia aka TankTop Trivia, our absurdly difficult #starwarstrivia show. This category for this week’s episode is “Shadows of the Empire” - a trip down memory lane into the CLASSIC novel, comics run, and 1996 game game.
Join us this week and every Tuesday for the ultimate Star Wars trivia game show, where obscure Star Wars knowledge and the mean-spirited bullying of a casual fan collide! Hosted by Dark Fantasy author GJ Stoutimore and featuring his good buddy SeanTankTop, known for his Game of Thrones reactions on RUclips and extremely poor memory regarding small, specific details about most things, this show is a delightful blend of challenging lore, niche trivia, irreverent humor, and good-humored bullying.
Each episode features deep-cutting questions designed to stump even the most dedicated Star Wars aficionados, which are all specifically designed and tailored for Sean’s inevitable failure and humiliation. After questions are answered, we cut to a brief intermission to explain a bit more about the topic and dive into what might be found behind the Star Wars curtain of lore. Expect constant banter, intentionally obscure questions, irreverent jokes, and many visible signs of Sean's rising blood pressure as he is continually jabbed and annoyed each week!

This was delightful as always! Also does anyone know where Star Wars: Masters of Teras Kasi stands in regards to the canon? Because i remember it was canon but then it wasnt and in the past few years, some elements of it have been mentioned in various star wars media. Again, fairly casual star wars consumer here but i remember getting that game and it was...fine? Novel, for certain.

@@smashbrandiscootch719 the events aren’t canonical anymore, but I do think you’re right - the odd element might be in play

I've never read or played any Shadows of the Empire stuff, but I HATE Dash Rendar with a passion. It's completely unearned and superficial, but I hate him all the same. His stupid shoulder pads, his dumb ship, and his Great Value Han Solo being ass. I HATE Dash Rendar!
One of the EU things I'm glad Disney hasn't recanonized yet. I'm sure his dumb ass will show up eventually though. A bit of a scare when the YT-2400 showed up in Rebels.

“Great Value Han Solo” is an elite comment.
