Minor(s): The Child

This started with a deck for Unmatched by Geektopia fan Matt W, and I ended up overriding a Mando & IG-11 deck I had been building with some ideas from the Unmatched deck.

What does this deck do:  Defends very well for a shooter, and “collects bounties” for playing the right attacks in the right order.

The Mandalorian & Child

The Mandalorian
16 HP
Ranged
Yellow+ Deck

The Child
8 HP
Melee
“Strong–” ranged minor deck (“Strong minus minus;” 2x A3D1 replaces 2x A4D1 for 4x A3D1, and melee for The Child)

The Mandalorian – 8 cards

3x I CAN BRING YOU IN WARM
A4.  If this attack is defended, draw 2 cards.

2x OR I CAN BRING YOU IN COLD
A6.  If you destroy the defending character, draw 3 cards.

1x THIS IS THE WAY
A9.  Move the Mandalorian up to 8 spaces.

2x BESKAR ARMOR
D5*.  If The Child is alive, draw a card.
*If you already have a BESKAR ARMOR in your draw pile, the defense value is 10.

1x WHISTLING BIRDS
The Mandalorian does 3 damage to all adjacent major characters and 6 damage to all adjacent minor characters.

The Child – 3 cards

2x FORCE POWERS
A4/D4.  If used as an attack, the player controlling the defending character loses an action on his next turn.

1x FORCE HEAL
The Child moves up to 4 spaces.  Then the Child recovers 4 damage, or choose a character adjacent to the Child to recover 4 damage.

The links to this deck are at the bottom of the page.

There is also a version of the deck for Unmatched.

Notes:

• I think his Beskar Armor is the main thing about the Mando, who is kind of immobile but super durable.  So I don’t know if this “immobile tank” will work but I want to try it.
• Mando comes out pretty well in the analysis tool but Baby Yoda is the most fragile minor in the game, so fragile that he rarely gets to play his cards, he gets maybe 1 per game.  I improved his basic deck in July 2021 to a “Strong–” just so they’re not such glass.
• I tried the deck in May 2021 and when he can’t get his card drawing game going, he’s not worth a whole lot.  Even with the card drawing, a pair of A6s and an A8 are hardly all that scary, so I upped the A8 to an A9, increased the damage of WHISTLING BIRDS and gave him even a little more draw power in BESKAR ARMOR.
