About

2x Bounty Hunter Crew + 1 Restock VS "Exodia package" Tie Phantom + Covert Strength/Tie Advanced'

You need a package for the big villain decks and the mirror. You probably have to play either a restock package or the Tie Phantom package. We will probably end up playing BHC+Restock because it takes fewer sideboard slots.

Why not Rival's Fall?

Takedowns for Boba's armour

Rival's Fall is only better then Vanquish if you need to target your opponents leader. Most leaders in the game do their thing before Rival's Fall is relevant and we use Syndicate Lackeys and Power of the Dark Side instead. Rival's Fall is mostly relevant against Boba's armour. Your matchups against Boba yellow is so good it's not relevant. Against Boba green Rival's Fall is way to slow if they ramp, we decided it was more practical to do 4 damage to Boba before the armour is played and use Takedown.

Zuckuss instead of Bossk?

We did not test Zuckuss very indepth. He feels lackluster into aggro decks if 4-lom is not on the board, but he can be very powerfull into the slower matchups. You can set up playing both for 9 resources and the big body makes him a better standalone threat. Bossk is super powerfull if he works, but it's hard to live the dream with Bossk.

Bazine (potentially 3 copies maindeck, removes all scary threats)

Lom Pyke out since Bazine is your smuggle. Your card quality is very high and most matchups are lost due to your opponent having very specific counter cards. Bazine works in every matchup and Lom Pyke is only in the deck for Pillage matchups. Bazine can take Relentless, Boba's armour, Tie Phantom before they are a problem and you can bounce her with Ma Klounkee. She also smuggles on 4 instead of 5 which means you can play her in response to being Pillaged.

Xanadu Blood

Xanadu Blood as a space threat in the slower mathcups. It dodges the most popular removal events Takedown and Fell the Dragon. If you want a threat it has to be in space. This one has a bit of upside bouncing ambush units, Bazine and exhausting resources or units.

Why no 3 drops? Boba unit, The Client and Death trooper?

They are akward. You don't want to play them late and they don't have enough impact early. We cut the 3costs and added 3 more 2 costs. It works better with Ma Klounkee and replaying your 2cost, playing 2 2costs on 4 resources and you still have Power of the Dark Side.
