Wife and I did the learn to play and got the decks which was awesome; but I'm seeing folks got promo cards. I assume we missed some activity or something to get them? Just want to know so if there's anything next GenCon we are ready to check lol.
My wife and I are going to our LGS Thursday evening and teaching a couple new folks. We'd all like to do the 2v2 version. I'm assuming the new folks should use Superman and Batman since they are 1/5 stars, but wanted to double check. Also, if so what two villains should my wife and I use to make it a bit easier on the new players without handing the game to them (i.e. I am NOT playing Clayface lol)?
Wife was playing Lobo last night, and we weren't sure of how to tale advantage of his abilities that allow you to put tokens back into your supply from your arsenal, current draw and or discard. She felt it helped her stay at a lower rebalance to not have as many Crisis Tokens in her bag, since the Bounties she was acquiring didnt count towards rebalance and they cam be used to pay for abilities; she also would buy x2 and or powerup versions of tokens and remove x1 versions. Is this it or are we missing additional reasons to use it?
So far all Im seeing is little offense, no healing unkess injured, few resources to buy better tokens....wife is winning by 25 with Lobo. Help, how do you play Clayface? :-)
With this ability, does the 8 damage and explosive Batarang replace the 5 damage and extra 3 resources? Or do I get it all? Ty in advance!
EDIT: "seller said this" for title, typed too fast sorry.
I have a friend trying to get every showcase, and he is taking to a seller on I think the SWU FB trade group. Guy told him this, and it sounds sketchy to me? Is this true regarding SOR reprint cards having less beveled and slightly rounder corners?
"With these SWU showcases, I like to be up front. These all of the soft rounded corners. The SOR ones came from the re-print wave, and don't have the sharp corners. I've had to have many convos about how this is perfectly normal, and not a sign the cards are fake."
Been playing Vader4 a long time, after the GC I made some tweaks based on the Vaders that made it to top 8. Not much except sideboard changes but any input or advice welcome.
UPDATE: Thank you all for the feedback and ideas; I've updated and tried to clean up the rules document link below, if anyone wants to take a look & give any further advice. Really appreciate it!
I'm no game designer so keep that in mind; but been wanting to do a team based mode for SWU, but with more SW theme than just bring two decks & do MTG Twin Headed Giant basically. I have an idea called Planetary Assault; let me know if it sounds fun, dumb, any input on changes to mechanics that would likely be needed and so on.

Tl;dr is each team has two players, each with a base and leader like normal. 60 card decks but Premiere rules otherwise for content.
I think it could work, but will need a lot of refinement to make it fun/balanced. Anyway just a thought, let me know what you think!
I've been holding learn to play events since last year, due to a big chunk of our LGS SWU crowd jumping to One Piece after the SHD set wasn't exciting for them. We have a good crowd at stores closer to the city but I live in a medium sized rural area, and trying to attract new players. Up until now I've taught a couple folks, here and there - but this past week, in two learn to plays (one at my LGS and one at a store closer to the city), I taught 5 people! And one of them is coming to our weekly play on Friday which is awesome.
I wanted to get input on how I am doing these and if there is anything I can improve/add that I haven't thought of (which I'm sure is a lot of stuff). Here's what I do so far:
I want to make sure it's as good as it can be; I don't think there is anything else I can do giveaway-wise, but wondering how else I can get the even 'out there' besides the store posting about it on FB/Instagram etc. One thing I thought of after these last ones, was maybe I should have a flyer to give away that has information on it? Store play day/time, and maybe a QR code or something to the official websites How to Play? Anything else you guys can think of?
