For a long time I wondered why there was no guide on these Boards for the IP Player decks, Agenda sets, or for units the way that there are for the Rebel heroes. It seemed to always be something that really hindered a new Imperial Player. At least, I know it hindered me. The only real explanation I could find was that everyone said the "best" deck depended so much on what heroes the Rebel picked. Unless you pick Subversive Tactics, which ruins the fun for everyone.
So I thought a different way to go about this was for us to outline what all the Rebels weaknesses are in one place. Obviously there are some basics, like heroes with a white die hate red die attacks, and heroes with low endurance hate bleed effects, but I wanted to go a bit deeper. If you really want to go toe to toe with Diala and kill her as quick as possible, what unit or combination of units would you use? What decks work best against each hero?
My go to strategy with Jyn was regular stormies in the front, royal guards or elite officers in the back. The royal guards would activate first, and the stormies would clog up Jyn's line of sight so she couldn't use Quick Draw. The guards would rush in, stun and (if possible) get out, completely shutting down Quick Draw. Once she was stunned, the stormies could focus fire on her. Nexu or trandoshans could work in a pinch if they inflicted Bleed on her, but that was playing a longer game, and if I was really trying to knock Jyn out, they were less than ideal.
