Really fun video. My son picked out a box for me yesterday and it had a Luke and a Hyperfoil Luke. So needless to say, i'm letting him pick packs and boxes for me from now on!
@ I’d say low hanging fruit would be to replace grievous, and k2 vs falcon is hard pick but he can also replace poe or wrecker. Think he’s beats either of them since he doesn’t require ecl. K2 vs ruthless raider first round would also be interesting based on their when defeated triggers
Definitely agree. Luke basically carried blue heroism on his back for awhile. I feel like a lot of support pieces are coming together to make a great deck.
Snoke v Vader is truly the hardest choice in this bracket. On the one hand, Vader comes out earlier, ambushes for 5 and has the ability to bring out a vast array of units, my personal favorite being either the Phase 3 Dark Trooper, or a Stormtrooper with either Tagge or the Snowtrooper Lieutenant. Snoke is a powerhouse that shuts down the board, and especially with set 3's introduction of token units can absolutely fry most exploit based decks in the endgame. Put up against each other on the board and it truly is an impossible choice between the two of them
The villain bias is STRONG in this bracket - 11 villain, 4 hero, and 1 single aspect. I think your weakest villains when it comes to current impact on games are Boba Fett, Darth Maul, and General Grevious. I would have replaced them with a combination of Cassian Andor, K2, Plo Koon, Home One, and Bright Hope.
Vader had a tough road and think I may have picked Snoke early. And honestly think the humble Ruthless Raider may have been my pick against anything other than Luke…. Thanks for the fun thought experiment!
I really think the cad bane unit is the best overall card by how much it can impact the board immediately and the ongoing value of getting more cards ongoing.
Almost wonder if there should be a ground villainy, ground heroism, space villainy and space heroism set of brackets. Then the top from those would go on to a final 4, etc. Good stuff still and the finalists are very well deserved.
There was definitely some consideration on whether they should have had those “regional” starts, however it result in some really strong cards being left out for lesser choices in the interest of quotas
Actually, the best unit is the battle droid. At 0 cost, it has infinitely more value than any other card, besides the clone trooper, which is worse than the battle droid, because they both have same infinite value, but the battle droids are funnier so they auto win.
Great video, really cool concept but ruthless raider over avenger is laughable. Avenger is the most oppressive unit in the game, and most decks just automatically lose when it’s played. Ruthless raider is a pretty good card but nowhere near as good as avenger. Luke over vader is crazy to me aswell, vader is the best unit in the game imo. Bringing a unit, sometimes even 2 plus ambush is really good, luke just has a situational removal built in. The restore 3 is awesome but waiting a turn for the value of a 7 cost card can be really slow
We wanted to try out a different format, so thank you for letting us know you liked it! We can agree that avenger is a really good card. When you have a board wipe or clear before hand, you are right it can win the game. However if you don’t have a way to clear the oops board before hand, it sometimes is not enough. There are not many Red villainy decks which don’t run RR, and it’s ability to put your opp in Check mate did it for us. Everyone enjoys different units though, so thank you for checking out our video and hearing our thoughts out :)
Where's relentless, king of long matchups? And Vader in my opinion be much better than Luke because he be very important in more, stronger decks than Luke.
I'm surprised Superlaser Tech wasn't in the bracket.
Avenger is the GOAT. That boy hits the table it's usually GG after that.
I made ppl give up when I used snoke and then avenger
I agree. I don't think any card I have played with and/or against has had more impact on winning the game than Avenger.
“You can either profit by this, or be destroyed. It’s your choice, but I warn you not to underestimate my power.” -Luke Skywalker
Great video like to see a similar style with the leaders too...
Really fun video. My son picked out a box for me yesterday and it had a Luke and a Hyperfoil Luke. So needless to say, i'm letting him pick packs and boxes for me from now on!
Congrats, that’s awesome! You’re on your way to great blue heroism deck!
@@Outmaneuver I'm sure he'll bounce between a few decks that I end up making.
Luke being played to follow up a Luke is so back breaking.
How is k-2so not in the bracket??
K2 is a great unit! Who would you have replaced? How far would K2 have gone?
@ I’d say low hanging fruit would be to replace grievous, and k2 vs falcon is hard pick but he can also replace poe or wrecker. Think he’s beats either of them since he doesn’t require ecl. K2 vs ruthless raider first round would also be interesting based on their when defeated triggers
And this is why we play, Falcon, LTP, Raider and Cad in the same deck
Definitely agree. Luke basically carried blue heroism on his back for awhile. I feel like a lot of support pieces are coming together to make a great deck.
Lurking tie is pretty crazy for such a common-place card
My boy Avenger did not make it far enough
Also, worth remembering that Vader can bring an LTP with him :D
The fact that 3 of the top 4 were from set 1 is a testament to how powerful that set still is. These cards are powerful!
Yes, set 1 has a lot of power!
100% agree. I need to find another Luke, but they’re too expensive for my blood
y'all did my boy Jar jar dirty lol
Snoke v Vader is truly the hardest choice in this bracket. On the one hand, Vader comes out earlier, ambushes for 5 and has the ability to bring out a vast array of units, my personal favorite being either the Phase 3 Dark Trooper, or a Stormtrooper with either Tagge or the Snowtrooper Lieutenant.

Put up against each other on the board and it truly is an impossible choice between the two of them
It was the hardest match up for sure!
It's no contest with Luke in the picture
The villain bias is STRONG in this bracket - 11 villain, 4 hero, and 1 single aspect. I think your weakest villains when it comes to current impact on games are Boba Fett, Darth Maul, and General Grevious. I would have replaced them with a combination of Cassian Andor, K2, Plo Koon, Home One, and Bright Hope.
I can see K2, plo for me depends on if he has coordinate. With it, it’s a top 10, when it’s not up, it’s more top 25
I would 100% agree with Luke being the winner due to the fact he he's so important in so many decks!
New to the channel - this was a fun look at top cards (that I mostly don’t have, lol). Thanks for the discussion
It’s crazy that after three sets, Luke is still King. Long live the King!!
My boy grievous is the true hero
No two tubes, mas amedda, or greedo on this list is sad
Awesome idea! Keep up the good content.
Vader had a tough road and think I may have picked Snoke early. And honestly think the humble Ruthless Raider may have been my pick against anything other than Luke…. Thanks for the fun thought experiment!
Thanks for the comment! RR avenger was the biggest upset in our mind, but i think it deserved its spot!
As a Maul fanboy, I wish he was just a hair better. It’s rare to get full use out of him.
Also oof at your Falcon reminder. That judge ruling was brutal.
Dudeness will not forgot about that one again
Bro were is battle field marine
By a wing
Luke, Vader, Avenger, and Snoke would all be great picks for me.
Great video! Not surprised to see Luke in the top place, but I wish my boy Cad Bane would've made it farther in the bracket.
I think cad is very strong! Hard match up verse lurking tie and it’s unique protection
I really think the cad bane unit is the best overall card by how much it can impact the board immediately and the ongoing value of getting more cards ongoing.
Cad is very strong! Thanks for checking out our thoughts!
Great work!
The set one cards in general are just so powerful. And Luke easily sits on top of that pile. He will only get better with more force decks.
We can agree with that!
I pretty much agree with everything here. Luke FTW
I feel like Luke unit has got to be considered simply from his ability to swing games so hard
I commented this at the beginning of the video and I will say it has aged well
Nice to see Ruthless Raider make it to Round 2
It’s a strong card! Sadily it ran into the buzz saw that is Luke
Congrats on a good first year
Thank you!

Would like to see a new Boba unit in the future that gets more play.
Thanks for the content
I'm thinking Rey Green is what I'll be playing most until JTL, so I'm definitely all-in on Luke! 😁
Where’s R2??
I was so sad to see plo kloon not make the top 16 cut
Plo koon with coordinate always on is easily top 16. Who would you have replaced?
@@Outmaneuver Grievous might be the weakest out of this bracket? So replace him I think.
Actually, the best unit is the battle droid. At 0 cost, it has infinitely more value than any other card, besides the clone trooper, which is worse than the battle droid, because they both have same infinite value, but the battle droids are funnier so they auto win.
I bought a box of first season, waiting for it, would like to start playing SWU
great video.
Good list
Luke is SO good
Pulled a boba and devastator today. Would love to have doubles of them now from the giveaway
Agreed Vader > Snoke but I will say that Set 3 with many small units and tokens makes Snoke incredibly annoying to deal with!
Good point about set 3. It was a close match up though!
Snoke can win you games by himself
Clearly Jar Jar Binks is the best card in the game atm
Luke! That is why he costs so much. 😊
Stock going up!
Great Podcast! when's the best event in SWU coming out? Let me spoil it for you and nominate OB
On would definitely be on that list!
Good thing you didnt include leaders. That would have been an obvious choice
Yeah, leaders are just so different in the game that I think they have to be treated separately! Thanks for watching!
hey guys. love the content
Thank you!
rooting for falcon!
Just ordered a booster box of set 1 🤞🏽on finding a Luke.

Exciting!
2 boxes in and I have exactly one copy of one of these cards :(
100% agree.
Agreed LUKE!
I love and hate Luke lol
The best unit in the game has got to be jar jar, right?
You know the answer in your heart
Set 1 still OP!
Lots of great stuff!
Comment for contest
Satisfied
Nice
Thanks
Where's relentless, king of long matchups? And Vader in my opinion be much better than Luke because he be very important in more, stronger decks than Luke.

Yes, crazy how an u common beat a rare and legendary!
