What does this deck do: Makes you laugh. Beats you up.
C-3PO Golden God
by Roman and Geektopia
C-3PO Golden God
11 HP
Brown Deck
Melee
4x Ewok Warriors
3 HP each
Weak Ranged Minor deck
Melee
C-3PO – 12 Cards
3x DIVINE INFLUENCE
All characters adjacent to C-3PO or an Ewok take 2 damage. Each player chooses and discards a card for each of his characters who takes damage from this card.
2x …BOOM!
Move each Ewok to a space adjacent to an opposing character. Then each Ewok may do 1 damage to an adjacent character.
1x OH MY!
A4. If this card does damage you may take it back into your hand.
2x AGAINST MY PROGRAMMING
D*. C-3PO takes no damage from the attack. Destroy an Ewok.
2x LEVITATION
Move C-3PO to any vacant space. Draw a card for each Ewok on the board.
1x FEAST IN MY HONOR
Return 2 destroyed Ewoks, at full health, adjacent to C-3PO.
1x WRATH OF THE GODS
A4*. Add 2 to the attack value for each Ewok that has been destroyed, including any that were brought back.
He’s surprisingly strong. 4 Ewoks at once is annoying, appropriate, but annoying.
Rob Daviau & Co.: We had ridiculously high Power Defence in the game, such as 12 or 15, because back then we though power attack would go even higher.
Geektopia: hold my blue milk
Now it’s up to A22. Even D12s and D15s are no match for C-3P0.
I count 16, or 20 if there’s a reshuffle and “Feast in my honor” is played twice. How do you get to 22?
i don’tunderstand the card divine influence
Hi Lois, thanks for your interest. Anyone adjacent to an Ewok or C-3P0 takes 2 damage, and for each damaged character, you discard a card. What’s not clear?
We bring Golden God out every now and then and it’s always a riot. I’ve actually seen it win a few games! My personal favorite was a 2v2 where an Ewok jumped in front of Threepio (via “Against My Programming”) to block my lethal Jedi Knight Anakin’s “Focus Your Anger”–which made Anakin die, too–then got resurrected with “Feast In My Honor” and killed Jedi Master Obi-Wan to win the game. I was laughing too hard to be upset.
One nice thing about this deck is it’s pretty obviously fragile, so people can’t be too mad if Threepio goes down fast. (Fighting Boba in particular is a bloodbath.) He’s still more dangerous than you’d think, though; Boom + Divine Influence is surprisingly strong without being broken. We also absolutely love how the only Geektopia deck that can pierce Yoda’s almighty Serenity defense is the silly Golden God. Great deck, good power level, and loads of fun.
Love these kinds of battle reports and this kind of feedback, thanks so much!
