No room for Leia? She's a spy too!

You're missing hide in plain sight! That's an awesome spy card. :o

No room for Leia, Murne is basically a cheaper replacement for her so that I can run MHD/elites instead.

Command points were very tight, I would have to cut 2 great cards for it and I don't know what I would cut, except maybe Murne for Mak and Balance.

In testing, I found that I was a little lacking for bodies, and then I realized that Davith is basically a budget Luke, he just trades +1def for -2acc and gives up a ranged attack and the AoE rerolls but has the ability to make multiple attacks reliably and deal autodamage which is really nice. and that gives me enough points to fit an eSmuggler, so no I have 2 bodies with 5 speed and 15 HP between them. Davith loses Son of Skywalker but has access to 2 cards that can make him invulnerable for a turn.
In testing, the hand disruption often times ended up being overkill, so I've cut down to just 2 cards that let me take any command card away from my opponent. Anyway wish me luck, I'm looking forward to seeing how this list does.

Made it into top 4, went 3-1 in Swiss. Ended up picking up Lando and swapping out devotion for stall for time and was very happy to never have a dead card.

I ran a spy list at regionals today too. went 2/2. Got 9th place. :(

But those spy cards are so fun. Particularly Comm Disruption. Even better when you can have Leia shuffle it back in and use it a second time. :D
