Star Wars: Force Arena allows Android and iOS players to build decks to vanquish their enemies. We’re here to reveal six of the best decks to use for Rebel and Empire Leaders. If you need help winning matches, here’s a good place to start.
HOW TO CHECK THE BEST DECKS RIGHT NOW
Just like you can with Leaders, you can also see what decks high-level players in your Tier are using by tapping your rank in the main menu. Some of the choices listed below may change as the meta evolves, so it never hurts to stay current.
THE THREE BEST REBEL DECKS
Cheap Cassian Andor : Here are the cards you need and their corresponding levels.
- MC3 Light Tank [Epic]
- Twi'lek Flamethrowers [Epic]
- Gigoran Rebel [Rare]
- Auto-Blaster Turret [Common]
- X-Wing [Common]
- Rebel Grenadier [Common]
- Talz Marauders [Common]
The basic strategy behind this deck is that Cassian’s passive ability buffs your range attacks. Most of the cards in this deck specialize in range. It also does a solid job of countering against swarming and AT-ST pushes. A good method to push might be to bring the Light Tank in with a Grenadier hiding behind. Keep your Leader at a pretty safe distance, though.
A Good Luke Counter : Here are the cards you need and their corresponding levels.
- Ben Kenobi [Unique]
- Unstable GNK Droid [Rare]
- Wookiee Warrior [Rare]
- Rebel Pathfinders [Common]
- Talz Marauders [Common]
- Rebel Troopers [Common]
Essentially, what you want to do is use Ben’s ability to convert enemy troops right from the start. Make sure he’s set up to convert lots of foes or something strong like a tank. The low energy cost of the rest of the deck should offset Ben’s use. Once you convert enough, you can start pushing with Ben in play.
Bodhi Rook Support In 2v2: Here are the cards you need and their corresponding levels.
- U-Wing [Unique]
- MLC-3 Light Tank [Epic]
- Mortar Turret [Epic]
- Ion Mine [Rare]
- Auto-Blaster Turret [Common]
- Rebel Grenadier [Common]
- Talz Marauders [Common]
This deck is best suited for 2v2 mode where you can provide support, but it’s still very effective for high-level players nonetheless. Use the towers Rook spawns to stop AT-STs, and use your turrets to help your partner push forward. Clear any swarms that come forward with your mine, U-Wing or Grenadier. Spawn tanks for defense, and use his supply crate ability to drop health and energy during cooldown.
THE THREE BEST EMPIRE DECKS
The Tarkin Rush Stopper : Here are the cards you need and their corresponding levels.
- AT-ST Walker [Epic]
- MTV-7 Light Vehicle [Epic]
- C-14A Stun Grenade [Epic]
- Dioxis Grenade [Rare]
- Energy Net [Rare]
- Probe Droid [Common]
- Devaronian Bladesmen [Common]
This is admittedly a pretty high-level deck, but it’s still really good to stop opposing rushes. Start by using the Dioxis to neutralize what’s ahead. Then, Tarkin’s special ability will ensure that you always have enough energy to keep playing more cards. When you’re pushing, you can use the Bladesmen to take down tanks. When you want to counter, use the vehicles.
Agent Kallus Leader Speed Deck : Here are the cards you need and their corresponding levels.
- Yogar Lyste [Unique]
- C-14A Stun Grenade [Epic]
- Imperial Heavy Gunners [Rare]
- Imperial Jumptroopers [Rare
- Rocket Stormtrooper [Rare]
- Dioxis Grenade [Rare]
- Stormtroopers [Common]
The basic philosophy of this deck is to push and push quickly. With about 10 energy in hand, start tossing grenades and using Kallus’ special ability to stun any enemies that may be pushing forward. All the while, use your various trooper units to provide pressure. Because this deck is so focused on offense, however, you may be out of luck when it comes to defending your turrets if you can’t win fast.
Dengar Swarms Everyone : Here are the cards you need and their corresponding levels.
- 4-LOM [Unique]
- Rocket Stormtrooper [Rare]
- Energy Net [Rare]
- Probe Droid [Common]
- Devaronian Bladesmen [Common]
- Sandtrooper [Common]
- Stormtroopers [Common]
This is a really cheap deck for Empire beginners, as long as you can get the Leader and unique to go with it. The basic philosophy behind it is to use the low energy cost to overwhelm your opponent. Right off the bat you can start pushing with Dengar, 4-LOM and Stormtroopers in one lane with your rockets in the other. Putting down the Energy Net with your grenade skill is a deadly force to any Leader. Once the Leader is down, rush with what’s left.
