Unlikely Pair: Star Wars Destiny Build

By Barclay Montgomery | March 18th, 2018 | Categories: Star Wars Destiny, Star Wars Tactics

Reluctant allies or battle buddies? You decide with this interesting Hero pair for Star Wars Destiny. Would you like to know your odds? Calculating….

Jyn Erso is a beast of a character in Star Wars Destiny. With 11 health and a powerful character die, she is a force to be reckoned with in her own right. 2 sides with 2 ranged damage, and 2 sides with discards will put some pressure on your opponent. Let’s pair her up with an unlikely ally.

The star of Rogue One, K-2S0 is ready to pair up with Jyn for an interesting team for the Heroes. With 2 melee sides and 1 discard on his character die, K-2S0 is similar to Jyn in damage and utility. His 2 shields side can boost your defenses when they start taking damage, and this deck will have only 2 character dice since both Jyn and K-2S0 are 15 points.

The A280 Blaster Rifle is a great weapon to start out with on Jyn. With ranged utility and a nifty special ability, it can add some value to your team no matter what you roll. And since it has Redeploy, it is a great way to bypass K-2S0’s equipment drawback. This can also result in K-2S0 being readied, which can allow you to roll his character and upgrade dice back into your pool after resolving them. 

A good idea would be to start out with the A280 on Jyn and then Equip it to K-2S0. This 1 cost Event can bypass K-2S0’s drawback and can result in K-2S0 being able to roll his dice again. A great way to get more mileage out of your characters. 

Promotion is a great upgrade for K-2S0 since it is an ability rather than a weapon. This can get by his drawback, and allow you to draw a card. It has +1 ranged and +1 melee which has good synergy with Jyn and K-2S0’s dice. The 1 focus and shield can help keep your characters in the fight longer.

An unlikely duo that will catch your friends off guard in Star Wars Destiny!
