I'll say she's doing a good job at hiding! She gets, what, 4 frames in ANH in a crowded Cantina scene! The Imperials won't be finding her for a while. 8-)
Let's be serious for a moment and look at the stats. Power 1, won't help much, she's best left in the Massassi War Room or another recluse site, making use of her ability. The Ability 3 is good, but if you want ability, use BoShek (4 Ability & U1 to boot!). We do have 1:1 Deploy/Forfeit Ratio, pretty average. She is Force-Attuned, for what that's good for. The Destiny of 4 is pretty good, but, looking at decks that take advantage of one side of the Destiny or another, I'm not sure how much that's worth anymore one man's garbage is another man's treasure, huh? 8-).
Right now, we have an okay card, but then we look down at the card. We hold in our hand the Telepathic Alien Kidnapper (Star Wars Customizable Card Game) personified! For those non- Star Wars Customizable Card Gamers, this card was a big pain in the butt, part of the only banned combo in the current Tourney Rules(Telepathic Alien Kidnappers + Alien Probe, which makes all players play their hands face-up), and 2 or more were VERY debilitating(I don't need to explain that one, do I? 8-). Of course, It's limited to one. There's no Alien Probe card (yet!), but there are Radar Scanners(see below). It can be killed by battling it. A weaker version, but a good card nonetheless.
As I've hinted to before, a Radar Scanner + Leesub Sirln combo isn't exactly killer, but it can help you make a better educated guess, with knowing the number of each card in the hand (Plus knocking out the Jawas & Tusken Raiders in the process!). Another good combo would be Leesub Sirln + A couple of Rebel Guards. Come on, you've got to protect her someway, right? But I think it comes down to: Leesub Sirln + One heluva lot of luck.
All in all, you'd only use this card for her special ability. If you want her ability, goto BoShek. If you want her power, get more cards and/or get off drugs! 8-)
My Rating: 6.0
