This is a fun mill deck that I made for two reasons: first, I wanted to have a deck made entirely out of the cards left over after assembling competitive decks; second, I have a Jyn promo that I want to use.
This deck tries to slowly mill out and control your opponent using discard die faces rather than true milling. It has a lot of means of helping Jyn survive, which I think all need to be used, and more than a few means of enabling Jyn to use her actions.
As a secondary function, this deck has slow but decent damage, which acts to defend the deck against future damage in the long term.
Certain obvious choices didn't make the cut:
-Con Artist focus on pure mill rather than discard, and Jyn is going to have her hands full with Second Chances.
-Cunning would also take up a valuable upgrade slot on Jyn, and it usually only supplements Con Artist in mill decks. I didn't think Scout's or Lone Operative's specials warranted needing more chances to roll out a special than the 1/3 chance they already have.
-Fast Hands would belong in a faster aggro deck, which this is not. Both of my copies are also always going to be in my competitive decks. :)
-Commando Raid needs more red die with Discard faces than I have.
Certain not-so-obvious choices were included:
-Thermal Detonator has two discard sides, and I'm not worried about its cost because this deck isn't supposed to be too fast.
-Smuggling Freighter helps to mitigate the high cost of Second Chance, and would help Ackbar survive using my high-cost events after Jyn dies. Also, removing resources is a fun way of controlling Blue heroes and wide mono Red decks.
I was considering Starship Graveyard for my battlefield, but I'd rather keep moving toward my win condition. Docking Bay could work against my win condition by bringing in discarded upgrades, which in turn would ramp up damage. But if this deck proves too slow, and I never claim, I may need to find a more neutral battleground like Otoh Gunga or Command Center.
There's a similar deck called "Rebel One: Empire 0" by Dissinger, but I think that's much more of a competitive deck than this one. :)
