Reylo - LVO Top 8 1.0

• Versions
• 1.0

Rnd 1 - W - Reylo - Pretty solid win. Jump out ahead pretty quick. Didn't play upgrades and spent the money on cards to like Steadfast, Conflicted and Ataru Strike to burst down Kylo quick

Rnd 2 - W - Snoke/Mando/Mud - Was able to kill Snoke quickly and he never had a chance to ramp up

Rnd 3 - L - Ewoks - Rough game. He dropped a Diplomatic Protection on two Ewoks in rounds 1 and then 2. I probably should have just killed them but attacked elsewhere. Caused me to take more damage then I should have. Managed to climb back into the game but was down to 3 health left with Rey and 3 upgrades...he dropped a Laser Trip Wire....ballgame

Rnd 4 - L - Snoke/Kallus - Order66 - One of the most frustrating games I've played. I did a great job not getting Snoked but he played all six Order66 cards in the top half of his deck. "pulling hair out"

Rnd 5 - W - Reylo - Rolled right through. Actually dropped Mind Extraction on Rey to control her P/A. Opponent never wanted to exhaust to remove it so I got free Kylo turns for a couple of rounds.

Rnd 6 - L - Snoke/Mando/Mud - Was a pretty close game. I was behind but started to come back, so I thought. Got Act of Cruelty with shields on to take the loss.

Rnd 7 - W - Palp/Motti - Played Brian from Golden Dice. I think we both went into this game with zero F's. He didn't want to play against Reylo and felt it was an auto loss and I was upset at my losses. I had this game in complete control and felt pretty bad given what I thought was a dominating game. AND THEN...Mysteries of the Force happened, hahaha. I wasn't even paying attention to it. Out came Admiral, Force Storm and he cleverly discarded Palp Saber to bring it back and get the 2 resources to pay for the Admiral reset. I went from 1 damage on Kylo with 3 shields that round and Rey no damage with 3 shields to a dead Kylo and Rey with no shields and 4 damage. Needless to say I gonna lose at this point. Then I drew Mind Extraction for my 5th card... Pretty much the only chance I had. Palp had 10 exactly.

Top 32 - 2-0 - Obi/R2 - Was a little nervous and didn't know what to expect here. I'd never played against the deck before. I figured the best shot I had was to kill R2 as quickly as possible and remove the auto focus. This worked and I used my removal pretty efficiently. No Questions Asked was the MVP in this series, getting it off both games and not eating 6 damage was the key to the set.

Top 16 - 2-0 - Chopper Droids - Don't remember a ton here. Kill Chopper as fast as possible and turn off the spot yellow was my goal. It worked out pretty well. The games were tight but I pulled it out 2-0

Top 8 - 1-2 - Vos/Pryce - Just watch this on the stream....I have to go back and watch the replay myself. I'm pretty sure I cost myself the last game by not taking shields. They would have allowed me to go to the next round at least and see what happened on the roll out. I got aggressive and it cost me a chance to win. Super stoked for Zion though, it was awesome to see him and this deck move on. Can't say enough good things about the guy, he's helped me become a better player over the last year.
