Running Bear made it to the finals of the January 2022 IA Command Vassal tournament with this Rebel list, but it was being played before that in the competitive league as well by various players.
This list has a ton of synergy that makes all the pieces work together really well, like a well oiled machine. Ko-Tun passes out evade tokens on the first turn to trigger Han and Jyn's Cunning abilities, which also trigger off of 3P0's Distracting ability. Cassian Andor and Hera work together to give out 4 damage power tokens on the first round as well. Then with all of those power tokens and Focus tokens super-charging their attacks, Ko-Tun's Dead Precise ability makes sure that dodges are not a problem for their attacks.
Running Bear brings even more tokens with cards like Prepared for Battle and Veteran Instincts. Wild Attack pairs really well with Ko-Tun's Dead Precise ability. Marksman helps to ensure that Jyn Odan's Hair Trigger and Han's Return Fire are able to trigger even through figures blocking line of sight.
This is a great Rebel list to try out if you're looking for something powerful and synergistic to take to your next IACP tournament or competitive event. Try out building the list yourself, and see what's new from Season 7 over at https://classic.tabletopadmiral.com/imperialassault/.
