Hello There - Homeworlds Edition

After the threatening reality of blue villainy dominance, it has become somewhat evident that you have to put these decks down by t5, otherwise it's all going south. You might argue that this has always been the case for aggro decks, but in previous metas there were several late game options for those last few base points - now it's either be quick, or be dead. It's a bit straightforward for my tests, but I often find that the best way to explore how meta shifts after a new set is to test the waters with a fast solid performer.

So, after some experiementation, the first candidate for this type of strategy was the return of an old classic, the good old general, mostly because Homeworlds brought a top notch starter aggro monster in the form of young Luke and some late game shennanigans with the improved mistress Rwoh.

Essentially, we have an improvement upon the typical command/cunning Obi Rush, with a better power to resource ratio than the original version and a solid tool set f finishers at six resources (hence the choice to move Yoda and Rey to sideboard). No frills, just plain in your face attack, that can possibly stay in the game for a while since you don't really commit above 7 resources and can possibly spam two threats per turn while trying to seal the deal.

Sideboard is pretty straightforward, mind trick is there against annoying "when defeated" tricks, rey / yoda for control, T-6 for the rare -hopefully- pilot decks and exploit confidence for Lando / Krennic credit rampers (make liberty cry again). Obviously, there are several ways to play around and choices in certain slots - e.g. swapping Elzar/Ezra for Rose Tico and removing some of the cheaper uniques for non-uniques like Mysterious Hermit and Jedi Sentinel if you want to go seminally faster, but personally I don't like it.

As usual, feel free to comment/suggest anything that works for you, it might help others :)
