Kanan double focuses with Recon to be able to drop attacks by 2, then use Lowhhrick's ability to throw an evade at Biggs, who can hide behind the Ghost for an extra evade die and then pass any crits to Lowy that he does end up with. Alternatively, use Lowy's absurd arc to max out Jyn's ability so Kanan can cancel 5 attack throws.

Lowhhrick needs his action to either reinforce (ability) or Jyn Erso - how will you choose each round? Seems like it may be a good idea to Jyn until Biggs goes down then start giving "evades" to Kanan.

I've been trying to fit these three into a list since Auzie's arrival. I don't have Jyn on Lowhhrick or Tact Jammer on Kanan ; instead I have Autoblaster on the VCX

Just to be clear, you mean Kanan can drop two different attacks by one, correct?

Because Kanan's ability cannot be used more than once per opportunity.

I assume this is what you meant, but your last line's "attack throws" is vague enough that I couldn't be sure. There are very few lists where Kanan would actually be able to use all five tokens -- that's approaching swarm territory, as it'd require five individual shots, all at range 1-2 of Kanan.

Correct, sorry about the vagueness. Reduce 2 attacks by 1 each, or save a focus for firing. Up to 5 would be useful against swarms or that stupid Dengar. Maybe dropping Jyn for Tactician is a better move?

Jan is better than Jyn here. It allows for two evades on Biggs or Kanan. One from Jyn and one from Low's ability. You are already creating focus token economy with Recon specialist. Using Jyn is overkill.

I used this list last night for our local store's Q3 championship and won overall with a 3-0 record. Tactician instead of Jyn was the only change. The Ghost was useless besides the ability and Lowey is the star by far. Draw their fire plus Breach Specialists is a great combo!
