This is my version of the Savine/Rey action cheat.
The "biggest" difference is that I have added Scavenge to get the 0-cost supports back into play. Losing Running Interference is rough for this deck.
I, also, added Don't Get Cocky. I need to get the combo cards into my hand quickly. Yes, it helps the opponent, too. But, once you get the combo pieces into play, you're good to go.
In case you didn't know... the combo pieces are: Running Interference x2. An upgrade weapon with ambush in the graveyard. Thermal Paint on Sabine. A weapon on Sabine that you can toss to play a weapon from hand (with ambush) on Sabine. You will then be able to keep your opponent from "playing a card" AND "activating a character". They will have to pass. You can ping them for one from the Thermal Paint AND claim the battlefield, which ends the turn.
Why Rey - Force Prodigy? She adds actions. With a Force Speed on her, she "really" adds actions.
Using the DL-44 Heavy Blaster Pistol on Sabine (even pulling it from the graveyard) will mitigate dice.
Thermal Paint allows you to keep pinging your opponent.
Starship Graveyard - Jakku allows you to get one of your ambush weapons back on top of your draw deck to use to start the combo next turn.
Infamous allows the cards you play that don't already have ambush, the opportunity to get you go play something else. For instance, use it on Don't Get Cocky, so you can play one of the cards you just drew. Then, exhaust Running Interference to keep your opponent from "playing a card" on their next turn.
Mitigation cards are: Electroshock, Loth-Cat and Mouse, Threaten.

There's so much this deck can do!
I understand that the RED version of this deck allows you to play It's a Trap! or Heat Of Battle - which ARE great cards. But, if you go the Thermal Paint route, you'll be just as good.
This deck played beautifully tonight. It went 3-1 in a 10-player tournament. It beat Vader/Guard, Kanen/Ahsoka, and something else. It lost to Phasma/Deathtrooper/FOTrooper. I was able to get the infinite combo going once. But with Rey, even if you can't, you get all kinds of extra actions. It was amazing.
