Anyone else notice the new card format?

THWEEKO REN.

The fear of facing Thweek might make some Imperial players think twice about bringing Wampa.

I think Thweek does not deal condition cards.

Edit: indeed. Mimicked says so. No Thweeko Ren or Captain Thweex.

^ I think they did that just so Dalan doesn't look like an *sshat, needing all the extra space for his text

Yup! I think I win the silliest use of his skill..

Hull upgrade would solve this problem of copying Tel Travura's ability!

FAQs for Thweek is going to be crazy. Does he get to 2 bank barrel roll if he takes Zeta Aces ability? Or does the ability just not work since you cannot use the 1 -straight template.

Thweektor Hel would be pretty funny.

thweek for all the week !

thweek backstabber could be good.

Copy your opponents Thweek, so then you can copy your own ship...

Thweek Pava?

Tweekgar!

Tweekdraw (with pulse ray shield!)

WhipsTweek?

Tweek Antillies

TweekRoark!

Again: mimicked does not allow you to deal condition cards, so if you copy Thweek, he can't deal Mimicked...

Would that be classed as an infinite combo?

If you are against a swarm or other low PS list, then you copy the pilot skill instead of an ability, and he becomes a flexible blocker for action denial. Take away the lock/focus from one or more of those missile carriers.

My Tala ordnance swarm laughs at Thweek.

I like that we're seeing more maneuvers -- the Tallon banks need to show up on a dial.

I think this is because they had to make room for the ridiculous length of Oberos and Thweek's abilities! It reminds me of how tiny the font has to be on some of the elaborate custom cards floating around this forum:

"X-Wing only. Rebel only. Title. You may not equip this title if your action bar has the boost action, unless you put it there with another upgrade card. You also can't equip this card if your name is Biggs. Oh wait, now I'm out of room!"

Scum is now the reactionary faction. Looking pretty fun.

Thweek is going to give Scum their own Biggs lol

Yeah but at least it's only when facing Biggs. I really like the concept. He only as strong as your opponent pilot and if you are facing a squad of generic ships he becomes a generic pilot. Good but not all the time. IMO thats an example of great design. Fun, interesting and different ability but doesnt seem to be OP.

Leebo (Crew) + Ion Dischargers on a Smuggling Compartment YT-1300 or 2400 allows them to get boost without EU for the same 4 points and still have space to equip another Mod of up to 3pts.

I dunno, just spitballing.

So far I really like this Aces pack. The cards spoiled so far are fun and interesting but nothing that appears obviously broken. Thweek is cool but it's probably for the best that he can't take Mindlink.

I'm randomly excited because they picked the lower of the two possible points costs for the PS 5 EPT generic.

If Thweek gets PS 3 or lower, will he lose the Virago title? And the upgrades it facilitates?

Pretty obviously made for the vaksai as a 2 point prs combo thatd be prohibitively expensive anywhere else

Only problem is finding a platform between overpriced cobra, non synergistic viktor and Graz the lame. Fingers crossed for the unspoiled ps 4 or that it'll make 27 point cruise missile aces cool
