Players have to micromanage their hero, watch the mini-map, keep an eye on the energy bar and look at what units their opponent sends down the lane. As explained before, thereвЂ™s a lot going on in every match. The biggest issue is nevertheless the fact that itвЂ™s hard to separate units from each other whether on the game board or from the cards in playerвЂ™s hand. Unfortunately, thereвЂ™s a very limited amount of these limited cards to make a difference. This design helps differentiate heroes further from each other. Much like in Hearthstone, some cards can only be used with specific heroes. In addition to this indirect metagame effect, thereвЂ™s also a very direct way the heroes affect deck buildings. By stunning a wave of attackers IвЂ™m able to hold them in one place for long enough time to get Skywalker in the middle and cause massive unanswered damage. For example, I like having cards that stun attackers in my Skywalker deck because Skywalker is a melee hero with a special ability of a powerful close-range Light Sabre attack. Each of the four decks is built around a specific hero and the heroвЂ™s unique skills play a significant role in what kind of cards player will pick into their hero specific deck. Two for the Rebels and two for the Empire. The player can have up to four different active decks at a time. Heroes in SWFA also play a crucial role in the metagame.
