Preview: Valentine's Duel - February 5, 2022

 


Nothing can deny the Force bond of love...love of STAR WARS EPIC DUELS!  What, you think I'm talking that mushy, cupid, red velvet, Hallmark holiday crap?!?  If you cut open a true Dueler's chest, where you would expect to find a heart you would instead find a six-sided dice reading "4 All."  True love doesn't count as an action and delivers 20 points of damage if you don't defend it, baby!

Welcome to February, and our 8th annual Valentine's Duel!  Assuming the ice melts before Saturday, we're throwing down at 7PM in the North Village classroom, and as is tradition, Duelers must bring a sugary treat to share with others!  Sugar = hyperactive Duelers, always a good thing.

You know who doesn't need sugar?  RATHTARS!  We're playing in the Eravana Cargo Hold, which means we'll have two Rathtars roaming the board and damaging players.  It should be a great time!

HISTORY OF THE VALENTINE'S DUEL:

2021 - Curtis won with Orson Krennic in the Eravana Cargo Hold
2020 - Rob won with Anakin Skywalker in the Geonosis Arena
2019 - Ben won with Darth Vader in the Emperor's Throne Room

MEET THE DUELERS:

Our long standing tradition for the Valentine's Duel preview post is to show which Valentine's Day card each Dueler is passing out this year.  And I'm *fairly* sure we've never duplicated any of these cards on previous preview posts.  Check them out below!

MONOPOLY PREDICTS THE WINNER:

Well Monopoly, I've got to hand it to you, your pick last week ended up finishing in second place.  Perhaps you aren't as idiotic as I thought?

Hahaha! *cough, cough*  Hi Duelers!
*burp* My goodness, so sorry, I don't feel so hot.
I think I ate a bad hot dog over at Park Place...

Good governor, I can smell your breath through the screen!  Well, Monopoly, dare I ask...who do you have winning this game?

So...*GURGLE*...sorry...
Need to...lay...OH GOSH...down...

Uh...Monopoly, you ok dude?

Oh I think I'm going to hurl, a RATHTAR just chest-busted out of Monopoly!!!
