While technically a new deck, this is actually a re-skin of Freedon Nadd, who is a re-skin of the Eye of Sauron. The short reason is: Eye of Sauron is a great deck that more people should play, but even my own group isn’t likely to play with it or with the Ghost of Freedon Nadd.
But, any of my friends can get excited about Chancellor Palpatine and his faithful political ally, Mas Amedda. And, they’re such a great fit for the Corruption concept that I’m not sure why I didn’t think of it sooner.
What does this deck do: Corrupts, and pressures you to either play your cards or go after him before he corrupts you further.
