    I don't get how a deck like that can actually win consistently. 

    What do you do against a Sith Control deck that just sits back, controls the force, and doesn't attack you? The units you have in that deck aren't powerful enough to breach a Sith defense/lockdown. 

    And even against Navy, a smart player isn't just going to throw their attacks into a stacked defense. The DS has a built-in advantage in this game, in that the LS player has a time limit to win. I don't have to attack as the DS player and i can still win the game as long as the LS player can't kill my objectives. And if you're going to devote that many cards to LS defense, then your offense isn't going to be very strong.

    Just to follow up on the idea of damage being dealt at the same time, I had a scenario in a game recently where we weren't sure exactly how the damage gets resolved…

     

    The LS player attacked with Han Solo and a Guardian of the Peace, placing a shield token on Han. Both characters had 1 damage token, and the Guardian had an Old Ben's Spirit. the DS player defended with Darth Vader wielding Vader's Lightsaber. The DS player won the edge battle and focused Vader to do 3 damage to Han. The first damage was blocked by the shield. The LS player used the Guardian's protect ability to take the second damage, killing it, and using Old Ben's Spirit to save her. The LS player then used the Guardian's protect ability again, to place the third damage on the refreshed Guardian.

     

    Is this the proper sequence to follow? If all 3 damage are technically being dealt at once, is there an opportunity to use Old Ben's Spirit in between 2 damage being placed? Or should Han have died from the 3rd damage?

     Having cards (and a large number of them, at that) that are legal for tournament play, but are not readily available for purchase makes this a second-rate game. To ensure a fair and competitive tournament environment (as well as being friendly to new players), every player needs to have equal access to every card that is tournament legal.

    Phasing out chapter packs is fine if the cards are no longer tournament-usable.

     Hey, a friend and I were looking forward to coming out for some tournaments (we weren't able to make your last two events due to the NFL playoffs...). I was disappointed to see that you're restricting the field of cards quite severely. Is this going to be an ongoing thing? None of my decks are legal, and I don't have much interest in creating a new deck with such a limited card pool to choose from.

    Also, is there any chance of having weekly events in the future, rather than bi-weekly? Or more frequent tournament play?
