DARK SIDE ANAKIN

Theme: Big attacks

Path to Victory: Any series of big attacks and direct damage

Strengths: High attacks, high direct damage

Weaknesses: Mediocre defense, has to discard his own cards, weak minors

Strategy: Get close and overpower them

Inspiration: The source is obvious, we had our own Vader deck in mind when we made this Anakin, as he is a blend of old Anakin and our Vader.

Playing DS Anakin: Anakin is straightforward, all power. He falls into the sluggo category but is one of the weaker ones. DON’T UNDERESTIMATE MY POWER is a great finishing card but it leaves Anakin exposed. Don’t be afraid to take some damage early, as you can heal with SITH RAGE. Keep some Clone Trooper cards handy to discard when you play RELEASE YOUR ANGER.

Playing against DS Anakin: He is pretty straightforward, with big attacks, healing attacks, direct damage he can use at range, and solid defense. He’s a powerful deck and if he gets a good draw, there’s not a lot you can do. His defense isn’t great, especially against ranged attackers. If you hit him enough, he will fall, but it’s a fine line since it also lets him heal.
