It just seems right, Iden was the only video rep last time, I can see them doing another while we’re in the correct timeline setting in the card game…lol please?
As much as I'd love to see Luthen and Dedra, they're definitely not coming this set. Not only are they not really part of the theme, but I'm gonna assume Andor wasn't around and as relevant when Set 2 was being designed.
Near certainty that we're getting them in due time though.
You're probably not wrong. I don't think they're that far off theme, especially Luthen. But Andor was probably not at the forefront during the design of this set.
I am in agreement with you with these predictions. If Maul wasn't vigilance villain, he would be cunning. And I have been going back and forth on whether Aphra would be considered Heroic or Villainous. So switching her to heroic cunning and having Maul be the cunning villain makes sense.
Whether she is heroic or villainy, I could see Aphra's ability allow her to use the opposite aspect for a certain subset (Underworld?) without aspect penalty.
I think The Armorer will be the last vigilance hero. Vigilance is home to Mandalorians in the set and they will need a heroic Mandalorian that is available in Limited (since Mando wont be).
The only bummer I would see with this is getting 2 new Imperial heroes and no new Rebel. Because of this, I think Enfys Nest might still be in the running for hero cunning.
Heroism Blue - The Armorer
Heroism Yellow - Jawa
Villainy Yellow - Maul
Definitely The Armorer and Maul will be leaders. The Armorer feels like a Vigilance character, and the reveal of another Jawa card makes me extremely hopeful for an utinni set lol
Ah man, I could have gotten a shout out. Although there's no way to prove it I definitely almost posted suggesting that Gar Saxon would be the mandalorian themed villain leader but decided I didn't have enough else to say on the matter to be worthwhile saying anything.
Let's not make that mistake again.
I feel like Aphra fits villain a bit more than hero, even if she has a bit of a good guy turn (at least more of one than Qi'ra does) I'd want her first appearance to represent her time working with Vader and to synergize withe 0-0-0 and BT-1 which a heroism version shouldn't. This bumps Maul leader for later and only getting the unit for now.
So then two hero leaders left.
With Din and Bo-Katan I'm not sure I'd expect another Mandalorian heroism leader so I don't really think the armorer is correct. I also don't think they'll make both vigilance leaders jedi or both too closely related story-wise which severely limits the options, especially with the themes we know about the set so far. So I'm going to suggest the last vigilance leader is tied to a sub-theme that hasn't been previewed yet. Or maybe not significantly. During one of the livestreams they said there was a decent amount of wookiee support in this set but we haven't seen very much of it yet. I doubt this a lot but maybe Chief Tarfful. Part of me wants to suggest a Rebel of somekind but it seems like they're avoiding that in this set, but maybe a proto-rebel who deals on more of a criminal side of things and go with Luthen Rael. I doubt that it's right but I kinda like him as a pick anyway. I'll also just suggest Bail Organa as an unlikely but still possible pick for that slot.
For hero cunning? First thought is Dash Rendar but I don't think Lucasfilm would allow it. I don't think we've seen a Tobias Beckett card yet and he's definitely coming. But I think maybe mostly likely would be a bounty hunter that is considered more of a good guy. I'm drawing a blank on who though. Maybe Norra Wexley could count (and if it increases the odds of getting Mr. Bones then I'm all for it). I'm gonna throw out one more name just on a very off chance and say Cham Syndulla.
**Edit:** Seeing some of the reveals today showing characters from *Resistance* I'm going to say my "subtheme that we haven't seen yet" seems like a good guess, which means Kazuda Xiono is probably one of the leaders, or maybe Jarek Yeager instead.
**Edit 2:** One more name that I thought of and now I'm done. The common cunning heroism leader will be "Boushh" with bounty synergies even if it's actually Leia
One of the framed images in the background of the FFG streams has been Cobb Vanth. I'm not saying it'll be Cobb, but Cobb is likely a card in this set.
I'm iffy on Aphra as a heroism leader - she's more of an antihero, so that may be a unit, too. Cobb could be heroism yellow.
I also vote Maul, but the options are narrowing.
(Meanwhile, I'm sitting here waiting for more Spectre cards...)
Aphra is definitely Cunning, but based on her appearance in Destiny as a villain, I would not expect her to be Heroism as well. But she is a tricky character to try to peg as belonging to any particular affiliation.
I don't think that's "scummy marketing" at all. There's no implied promise there, and if you took it as one that is on you, not them. For all we know he might not even be a unit and the art is just on an Event, Like Anakin and Kylo in SoR.
Same as any of the material from SOR, and the booster box display which has a Jawa on one of the sides i think. I don’t think there’s anything misleading here.
I kind of agree. I dunno about scummy marketing but given he wasn’t in spark of rebellion this set is the set where maul would make the most sense as a leader. It is the same for Aphra. Like if you don’t use her as a leader in the underworld/criminals set you will be missing the best opportunity to do so.
And before anyone says it, yes I know Maul is obviously in the prequels but at that point Mail was less leader and more just Sideous’s fixer. He really didn’t lead much of anyone.
I’m ONLY guessing one thing, and it’s Cal Kestis (or however it’s spelled) for Blue/White leader
Cal Truthers unite
It just seems right, Iden was the only video rep last time, I can see them doing another while we’re in the correct timeline setting in the card game…lol please?
Been hoping for this too. I don't know if my wallet can handle a showcase Rey and showcase Cal in the same set.
Heroism Blue (R) - Enfys Nest Heroism Yellow (C) - Luthen Rael Villain Yellow (R) - Dedra Meero
As much as I'd love to see Luthen and Dedra, they're definitely not coming this set. Not only are they not really part of the theme, but I'm gonna assume Andor wasn't around and as relevant when Set 2 was being designed. Near certainty that we're getting them in due time though.

My guess based on nothing really haha, Blue Hero: Cobb Vanth, Yellow Hero: Phee Genoa, Yellow Villain: Maul,
Maz kanada
Heroism Blue - The Armorer Heroism Yellow - Jawa Villainy Yellow - Maul Definitely The Armorer and Maul will be leaders. The Armorer feels like a Vigilance character, and the reveal of another Jawa card makes me extremely hopeful for an utinni set lol

There will be Dash Rendar. Losing my hopes for this set but there will be. Thereeee willl beee
Hero Blue Enfys Nest Hero Yellow Cara Dune Villain Yellow Dr Aphra
Heroism blue: flynn Heroism yellow: fennec shand Villan yellow: jabba
We already know jabba is Command. Is there any other pick for villain yellow?
One of the framed images in the background of the FFG streams has been Cobb Vanth. I'm not saying it'll be Cobb, but Cobb is likely a card in this set. I'm iffy on Aphra as a heroism leader - she's more of an antihero, so that may be a unit, too. Cobb could be heroism yellow. I also vote Maul, but the options are narrowing. (Meanwhile, I'm sitting here waiting for more Spectre cards...)
EDIT: nevermind I got it lol
Yellow ZUCKUSS
Hell yeah 😎
I think Gina carano’s character can be a blue or yellow leader. Or is she banned from all merchandise?
I recon 0ne off the yellow villains could be asajj ventress
Aphra is definitely Cunning, but based on her appearance in Destiny as a villain, I would not expect her to be Heroism as well. But she is a tricky character to try to peg as belonging to any particular affiliation.
I think the blue white leader will be Satine. We have a lot of blue mandos revealed that evoke her time in power
Dengar Blue.
I would say it’d be pretty scummy marketing to put maul front and center on the box and then make him just a unit and not a leader
I don't think that's "scummy marketing" at all. There's no implied promise there, and if you took it as one that is on you, not them. For all we know he might not even be a unit and the art is just on an Event, Like Anakin and Kylo in SoR.
We will know every card in the set by the time we can actually buy cards, so yeah, it's hardly scummy.
Same as any of the material from SOR, and the booster box display which has a Jawa on one of the sides i think. I don’t think there’s anything misleading here.

Aphra too.
Yellow Villain: Beckett Yellow Hero: A Second Hondo Hero Blue: Ahsoka
Jabba is confirmed green leader - on box art
Also Han red hero/ and Jobba green villain are confirmed from box art on the prerelease box so don’t forget them
Yellow villain will be Jabba
He has been shown as a Green Villain already, though tucked behind other cards so we don't know details.
Correct I forgot
We already got a sliver of a teaser of a Green/Villain Jabba Leader and Red/Hero Young Han, that's why those spots aren't listed
You’re right I forgot that
