!!THIS IS THE ONE (Again)!!

After playing over 100 games and finally placing top 3 at an event, Im proud to bring you a Jyn deck that can compete. Also 70% winrate in last 20 games. Dont take my word for it though, actually give it a go!

If it gets enough likes/interest ill put together a youtube video of games/deck tech etc.

--How it works--

Its a pretty standard double cunning midrange deck. The difference is that early in the game you can use Jyns ability to trade well and build up some early board control. Lothal Insurgent and Rogue Op really shine here. Both hitting for 3/4 damage respectively but sticking around on the board. Bohdi and Ezra become extra sticky too.

Having board control moving into turn 3 is key as now you can play Cunning to push the lead or Gammoreans to force your opponent into unfavorable situations.

Cantina bouncer and Jyn coming out on the next few turns just makes it all the harder for your opponent to deal with these high health units that take less damage when attacking. You dont lack punch either with surprise attack and cunning helping you deal with high health targets.

Once Jyn is out, thats usually your key to finish off any last units and start hitting base now that you have tempo.

--Basic idea--
Trade early with Jyn ability to get board control. Play cunning to bounce a unit and make them discard random (or punch base for +4). Cantina bouncer the following turn to make sure your opponent is adequetly frustrated. Jyn and Mil falcon on turn 5 is almost insurmountable pressure OR now you can play your events. Go aggro now and use Han to punch any new threats.

--TIDBITS-- 'A New Adventure' is very clutch in this deck. Obvious uses are Cantina Bouncer to reuse its bounce (effectively a 2 cost Waylay). Can use on Falcon to get a second ambush attack. Can bounce opponents units that have lots of (or expensive) upgrades or experience tokens/shields. Can use on your own units to remove bounties. NOTE: it doesnt have a lot of use early in the game so feel free to resource one, you may hold on for certain match ups.

Its been said, but you need to use Jyns ability, 3-4 times a game has a lot of soft value that builds up and catches your opponents off guard. If your 2-3 cost units are still on the table when you start bouncing things with Cunning and Cantina bouncer, then when Jyn arrives you have such a big tempo lead. You can also use surprise strike with Rogue OP to one shot most leaders at this stage of the game.

This deck can lack damage if you dont supplement it with cunning, surprise strike and DL-44 blaster.

--Sideboard-- Asteroid sanctuary is good against aggro matchups , change of heart against decks that boost up single units or have big hitters that you can finish the game with. Spark of rebellion is great into ramp decks or Han solo (because he needs the cards for resources).
