Count the cheap When Defeated units in hand. Without one, the leader ability has nothing to eat and the deck is a pile of expensive cards. Note whether the two-cost Krennic unit is available this round: it is the discount, and it only applies to the first such unit each round. Read their leader and base and write down the aspects they provide. That is what Lawbringer will name later. Every round
Ask whether the Credit is worth more than the body. Against an aggressive board it usually is not. Check remaining HP across your own units before playing Pre Vizsla, not printed HP. Count your resources. Seven is a different game to six. On the deploy turn
Confirm there is another friendly unit for the deploy trigger to use. Play the Plot cards from your resource zone before ending the phase. Remember the deployed leader is a unit and can be taken control of. From the guide . §16 Testing Framework
Four things decide games with this deck: the round you reached seven resources, whether you had a board when you got there, how much base HP you had left, and whether you had a cheap When Defeated unit in the opening hand. Record all four and the losses sort themselves into causes.
