Hey guys and dolls,

I've been having some trouble generating resources with Villain decks. With Heroes it's easy, especially with yellow cards. But I struggle to get it going with the bad guys. Any tips? I should probably mention I have most commons and rares from awakenings and Spirit of Rebellion but not later sets.

Villains didn’t get too much resource generation until Empire at War.

From the first couple sets, you can use Underworld Connections (good option for slower decks), enrage (pretty good in aggro), or build a list with Unkar Plutt. Logistics was also quite common in the first couple sets. And, there’s Sith Holocron in blue ability decks.

The really strong villain decks from that era were usually quite light on resources. They balanced it with a lot of 0-cost card effects.

Later sets take steps to fix this, but if you play supports Tech Team / Binds All Things are neutral and generate value across the entire game.

For villians specifically, can only remember Cienna having two resource sides and the Hounds Tooth support
