Luke Skywalker has felt a tremor in the Force and it is the spirit of Qui-Gon Jinn! The new Qui-Gon will lend his strength to Luke in Destiny.
The new and powerful Qui-Gon is a new force to be reckoned with for the Villains. As Snoke had said, once a powerful dark force rises an equal light force will meet it and Qui-Gon is the light. With shield favoritism and powerful melee sides, Qui-Gon will do well with the latest version of Luke. Equipping upgrades will make him even more powerful and tanky at the same time.
Luke is more of a pacifist, but Qui-Gon can make use of Luke’s strong shield sides. Luke uses powerful defense for offense, being able to resolve his shield sides as melee on a whim. His Power Action can help in a pinch to shift Blue abilities over to Qui-Gon as needed, and his focus side can help Qui-Gon’s dice get to his melee sides.
Qui-Gon’s Lightsaber is a new Legendary weapon for Heroes in Destiny. This lightsaber has 3 sides showing shields, and 2 melee sides to buff Qui-Gon damage output. It also has a built-in ability to regenerate 1 shield. After 1 or more shields are removed from attached character, you may exhaust this upgrade to give that character 1 shield. If this upgrade is on Qui-Gon you may draw a card. A great utility aspect of this weapon, and if you max out shields on Qui-Gon himself, you can increase the values on his Lightsaber by 1!
A great Blue ability upgrade that you can use in this deck is Coordination. This upgrade has plenty of focus and special ability sides that can get Qui-Gon’s shield game kick started. The special ability gives each of your characters 1 shield, and this can be great to keep Luke protected.
With all of these shield sides to your dice Your Eyes Can Deceive You! This Blue support can act as a soft die mitigation tool, as it kicks in after you roll a shield side on one of your dice; it allows you to change an opponent’s die to any side. Strong defense is the way to go with wise old masters, and Luke and Qui-Gon will have you covered when you take on Snoke and the Villains in Star Wars Destiny!
