Strategy: '

Okay, this is my first HB deck so I need plenty of help. Basically its played like any other X-wing swarm except, where other decks have a lot of AWRI, I use Off the Edge. Unless your opponent is playing a Dark Deal deck, in which case your screwed, Off The Edge will let you use tracked Bionic Hand and Int. Mis. to retrieve all the force you need. Remember, it can even target an undercover spy. Against there drains, you have Rebel Fleet, Projection of a Skywalker and SWSTYF so they’ll have a problem once you flip your Obj. Your Strategy won’t change much except against a TIE deck in which case you’ll need to keep your X-wings in threes and fours so they aren’t overpowered. If your deck is being agreeable, you will be draining for 13 a turn, plus hopefully some extra with Order to Engage (once you flip, that is). Here are reasons for various cards.

Order to Engage combine it with Reb. Bar. and they aren’t going to like you. You can even let their little TIE fighter stay put to keep them losing force by not attacking.

Rebel Barrier slow them down and combine it with Order to Engage

Lightsaber Proficiency Scenario your opponent is playing a dark deal deck. You dump Luke/Leia/Obi w/lightsabers and with L.P. on luke. at the lower corridor.
If you have GOTM in hand, you will drain for 5 there and have 23 power+3battle destiny. I mean, whose going to attack that?

Power Pivot/Direct Assault getting rid of annoying pests.

Intruder Missile Trackable Destiny.

Bionic Hand same thing, but will help against disarm and mostly armless.

GOTM 2 battle destiny when you’ve got Luke and Obi at the same site, not to mention you can find a lightsaber with it and then retrieve it with off the edge.

Projection of a Skywalker stopping the drain.

I think this deck could do alright but I want some feedback. PLEEAAASSSSE
