Twisted Format Faceoff

By JawaJeff - January 29, 2025

In an effort to wring maximum joy out of their Star Wars Unlimited cards, Jawa Jeff and Bernie often come up with unique formats for draft and sealed deck. Part of the goal is to mix things up a bit and force themselves to play with unusual cards and to look for unorthodox combos. Below…

Talking ’bout Boxes

By ObiWein - January 28, 2025

Porg Depot has been tracking singles for a bit now. (You can find the latest on Showcase and Legendary singles in our pricing section.)

Rollin’

By ObiWein - January 27, 2025

BB-8 has a card finally. My 11 year old daughter can rejoice as her favorite character has made it into Star Wars Unlimited. The fact that the card seems good at first glance is a plus. There are a few easy comparisons with BB-8 just due to the deployment cost, power and health. Both of…

Showcase Prices Jan 27, 2025

By ObiWein - January 27, 2025

Up week! Kind of… We received some feedback after last week’s post on the same topic that it may be a good idea to look at Near Mint cards only to eliminate some variance in single low listings due to condition throwing off the entire data set for a card. As we agree this rationale…

Legendary Prices Jan 24, 2025

By ObiWein - January 24, 2025

The overall market is down vs. exactly seven days ago, however the overall trend may still be headed up. We did make a small adjustment to our web scraping of TCGPlayer data. It is now filtered for Near Mint cards only. This should weed out any anomalies with somewhat played or damaged cards being considered…

Welcome to Our Thrawn Talk

By ObiWein - January 23, 2025

Thrawn is diabolical, brilliant and ruthless. He is a tactical genius whose troops follow him willingly, and who will fight for him whether or not he’s watching over their shoulders. Thrawn is a fantastic character both in the legends novels and in his current canon form. It makes sense that Thrawn would be crafted in…

Combo Calculations

By ObiWein - January 22, 2025

History Card combinations have existed since the very beginning of collectible card games. They simply are two (or more) cards that interact extremely well with each other to create an impact on the game state greater than the sum of their parts. An extremely early example of this from Magic is the Royal Assassin and…

Getting to Top Cut

By ObiWein - January 21, 2025

What does it take to make the top cut at a large event? Certainly it takes a good deck. It also takes skill in piloting that deck generally developed via practicing. You need to have a good understanding of not just your own deck but also what the other decks in the meta are going…

Showcase Prices Jan 20, 2025

By ObiWein - January 20, 2025

After PQ week three, and the tenth week of tracking, it’s safe to say that showcase prices generally go down over time. Not too many bright spots this week. Plus some movement at the bottom of the list and a very improbable showdown win. ** Data gathered from TCGPlayer at ~7:50am EST. Full data set…

We now what Prestige cards will be and it’s anyone’s guess as to how those cards plus the Carbonite packs in general will impact the single card market for Star Wars Unlimited. That would of course only be speculation and at least for now we’re going to stick to the facts. Total Value The value…

Shootout : Bodhi Rook vs Bazine Netal

By ObiWein - January 9, 2025

The battle of the discarders. The Imperial defector goes up against the First Order spy. Bazine comes out swinging as a tremendous round one play, especially if you start with the initiative. Being able to make your opponent discard their potentially only round one or round two play can be a massive speed bump in…
