Evader is a Dark Interrupt (Used or Lost Interrupt) from A New Hope.
Card Text
USED: Cancel all Revolutions in play (owner loses 1 Force for each). LOST: If Vader or Vader’s Custom TIE was just lost, relocate that card to Used Pile. OR Relocate to Used Pile one Imperial just lost from any Death Star location. This interrupt may relocate Death Star Assault Squadron (because it relocates the persona of •Vader).
Lore
A panic move by Black 2 send Vader spinning wildly from the Death Star trench-ironically sparing his life. His destiny would be fulfilled another time.

Strategy
By Dan Holmes, Red 31[1]
It has one used function and two lost functions, and the used one is the best. Cancel all Revolutions in play and the owner loses one Force for each. This is the best way to deal with Revolution. The Light Side loses 2 cards for each Revolution in play. (the Revolution card +1 more) Since Evader has a 4 for destiny, it is one that you will not mind returning to your Life Force.
The Lost uses are also good. You may lose Evader to move Vader or Vader's Custom Tie to your Used Pile if it was just lost. In this manner, Evader is very much like a "back" card except that it does not cost you anything. If you wanted to use The Empire's Back to do the same thing, you would have to use 2 Force and lose the card.
The other lost use is to save any imperial just lost from a Death Star location to your Used Pile. This is great if you are playing with Lieutenant Suba or any other strategy that focuses on the Death Star. Clearly, Evader is a card that has to be considered one of the most useful cards in the SWCCG universe.
