Star Wars Unlimited Tournament Table Mechanics 

That upside down resourcing is gonna come in handy when smuggle appears!

as someone to TCGs and playing at my local, this is very helpful!! my local is great, but i dont always know how to "behave" with proper decorum. knowing what might be expected at higher levels is super helpful

Great stuff. I would love for you to have talked about the initiative token and end of turn sequence. I went to a large event recently and was flabbergasted at how few people use the taken side of initiative token and are sloppy with the order of draw, resource, and ready.

This is Christopher we spoke yesterday! This looks better than magic you made a conversion from me😂

I like the Sentinel in the front row, because I'm just as likely to make a mistake and forget I have a sentinel and let my opponent attack my base.

The quick start rules say to put sentinel units slightly ahead of other units to remind players they have to be attacked first…but the comprehensive rules don’t say that. I’m guessing that means it’s not a rule requirement, just a courtesy?

Level 0 table mechanics: Deck box: Rubber band around cards Tokens: whatever change you have in your pocket, random scraps paper, etc. Shuffling: whatever doesn't get you DQ'd for cheating Strategy: let's f'in GOOOOOOOOOO!

Seriously though one thing I would recommend for you not rotating your deck and be careful with your draws when pulling them close to your resource row. If you get a certain type of opponent, they could try to angle shoot you and say that you added an extra resource or picked a card up from your resource row.... I wouldn't expect that from the SWU community, but if the game catches fire and tourneys start getting bigger, it will eventually attract that certain type of player

What was that outer deck box. Love that it fits a notepad

Actually liked this video alot. Does it say anywhere in official rules that damage on base has to be displayed via token or dial. At my recent 1k people were taking notes which I'm fine with but I had to constantly ask what base damage was.

What kind of notes do you take? Just damage?

Whoa, extra cards in your deck box is a DQ? I guess it makes sense if they’re mixing the cards together or being shady about it, I just never thought about it. Are there any other common tournament rules mistakes that you see people making, that could potentially cost them games without them even realizing?

Use your list to make sure you’re properly unsideborded after each match and do a sanity check at the start of each new match. I’ve seen a lot of people flash their resources at me as they use them. Make sure you’re not showing your opponent which cards you resourced. If you win, allow your opponent to offer the handshake. They may be feeling bad. If they seem in a good mood, try to have some conversation with them about the match. Maybe talk about side boarding. Make new friends!

You are flashing the cards you resource to your opponent, you can put it upside down but spinning it kinda torward yourself

You made the video just to show off that sweet mat, didn't you 😆

Are you saying rifle instead of riffle? Great video!

Can you tell someone they can only cut not shuffle Your cards ?

Why do I like this silly thumbnail so much?

Not that it will matter a whole bunch but the official rules say that after sideboarding you have to show your opponent that you have 10 or less cards in your sideboard. Don’t want to see you get DQ’d off some trash like that😂

If you resource like this, you’re actually showing your opponent the cards you resource, because you rotate them towards your opponent. You can resource “upside down” without showing your opponent. No reason to fully rotate them.

Good walkthrough. Just one thing. It’s “riffle shuffle” not “rifle shuffle”.
