Strategy: '

Like I said in the intro, this deck is fairly straight forward. First turn, deploy Wakeelmui from Reserve, drop the Emperor and Merrejk to the DB, grab systems from reserve, drop Vanguards and react by deploying massive amounts of TIEs and/or Dreadnaughts if they try to battle. Yeah, I know it is monkey, but it is soooo effective.

Specifics
-Corulag is a nice "way point" between systems...
-Asteroids allow you to cancel force drains, or put a TIE back in your deck
-Fighter Cover can replace LS "I’ll Take the Leader" plus it is destiny 6, what is not to love?
-You Overestimate Their Chances is tech in this deck. Play it right before you "react" with 4 TIEs, and smile as your opponent soils himself.

Matchups
-EBO Start Imp. Decree, you should be able to control the requisite battlegrounds, and just beat them out of space.
-Watch Your Step This is extremely tough. LS can match the retrieval in this deck, and the R2/3PO and LEEBO combo can be extremely frustrating. Just play carefully and you shouldn’t hava a problem.
-Profit Just outdrain baby this matchup is not a problem...

I know I have forgotten a few prominent matchups, but this deck is solid in every way. Please Dmail me if you have any specific questions and/or suggestions. '
