I agree with you remote, he has a better chance against these 5 decks than a lot of us give him credit for (but then again, 3 of them are Tier III decks anyway...and everyone fairs well against Tier III). But even so, would you actually give him the "upper hand" against any of them?
One point that I forgot to include in the "works against itself" list from before, is the "healing" factor of killing off minors. Chokes and Wrath's kill off minors, but if Vader is relying on DD to win, why would you ever want to kill off the minors? Doing so allows the major to just heal back as an effective counter. So, you're "damned if you do, damned if you don't" with the minors. Kill them off? Good, I can heal. Keep them alive? Good, that leaves me with more cards to hurt you. To further my point, Vader's combined record in the EDOL against the five characters Remote mentioned is a near even 17-16. That's far from having a very positive margin of victory.
I'll agree he has a chance against these select 5 decks, but I don't think he has a clear advantage against any of other 11 decks. And that, is sort of the point of the discussion. The deck isn't consistently effective, and it's because the deck's path to victory isn't supported well enough.
Darth Trumpetus...trumpeter of fury.
