Shaping Destiny – Issue 5: The Guardian Keyword

Welcome everyone to Issue 5 of Shaping Destiny. It’s been a busy couple of weeks, but I have finally been able to break away to bring you an issue. In this issue I would like to talk about the keyword Guardian. Before we can talk about it however, we need to know what it does.

Any character with the Guardian keyword has the following effect: Before this character activates, you may deal it damage equal to the value of a die showing damage ([MD] or [RD]) in your opponent’s pool. Then remove that die showing the damage. Continue reading “Shaping Destiny – Issue 5: The Guardian Keyword”

Shaping Destiny – Issue 4: Community

It’s time for the fourth issue of Shaping Destiny. In this issue, we will be breaking down community and what it means in Destiny. Before we do however, let’s first look at the definition of it.

Community is: a feeling of fellowship with others, as a result of sharing common attitudes, interests, and goals.

Destiny is game where there are many important parts in it.  Being a healthy game and community is one of these part. Without community, the game wouldn’t be able to grow, no one would be able to learn as much, and the game would get boring. Community is a key part of the gaming experience that a lot of people tend to brush off or ignore. The point of this issue to address community as an important aspect of the game that should be acknowledged and respected just like the rules. Continue reading “Shaping Destiny – Issue 4: Community”

Shaping Destiny – Issue 2: Probabilities

Hello everyone and welcome back to Shaping Destiny. In this issue I will be talking about probabilities in Star Wars Destiny. Before I do that let’s first get the meaning of what probability is.

Probability is: the extent to which something is probable; the likelihood of something happening or being the case.

As with many games, probabilities plays a part in an approach to this game for those who like to break a game down and take their gaming to the next level. Knowing what the probabilities are and making moves according is an advanced skill that can take you to the next level of gameplay but by no means guarantees victory. Probabilities in this game can consist of many factors including but not limited to dice rolls, cards in opening hand, drawing cards you need, and much more. In this issue we will be talking about probabilities in relation to dice and cards. Continue reading “Shaping Destiny – Issue 2: Probabilities”
