Kit Reveal - The Mandalorian and Grogu: New Republic GL leader, On the Run instant defeats, Contract of 20 counterattacks

Alignment: Light Side. Categories: Galactic Legend, Leader, Attacker, Bounty Hunter, Mandalorian, New Republic, Unaligned Force User, Scoundrel. Unlocked through The Mandalorian and Grogu Mini-Era.

The short version

• A New Republic GL Attacker and Leader built around counterattacks and the On the Run debuff (can't be dispelled or resisted).
• Their turns have two halves: first Grogu's Granted abilities (Force Splinter or And Then the Young Protect the Old, ignoring Taunt, then a bonus turn), then The Mandalorian's Basic, Specials and Ultimate.
• The Ultimate Fire Up the Drives dispels all ally debuffs, fully heals the team, gives other New Republic allies a bonus turn and cooldown reset, and sets up an instant defeat on the next enemy whose On the Run resets (Galactic Legends and Raid Bosses excluded).
• Punishes Damage Immunity and 0 or 1 damage hits (gains 10% Offense, stacking), and gets stronger as enemies fall.
• The post contradicts itself on how often: the Unique says Grogu's abilities come at the start of battle and every other turn, the FAQ says every time they start their turn.
• The post has no Grand Arena, Territory Wars or Territory Battles specific lines.

Leader: Clan of Two

• New Republic allies: +30% Max Health, Mastery, Potency and +30 Speed. New Republic Healers get +40 more Speed.
• Start of each encounter: other New Republic allies gain Potency Up and Retribution for 3 turns; The Mandalorian and Grogu gain them locked (can't be dispelled or prevented).
• Any ally attacking on an enemy turn adds 1 On the Run stack. When On the Run resets on an enemy, it has -100% Evasion and Tenacity for 2 turns.
• Revived enemies get 5 On the Run stacks and -50% Max Health and Max Protection (stacking).
• If a New Republic ally is instantly defeated, New Republic Tanks gain 100% Defense, Max Health and Offense.
• New Republic allies under 100% Health trigger their Heal Over Time stacks and gain Stealth for 1 turn (non-Tanks).
• Contract (Leader slot only): counterattack 20 times (only Bounty Hunter and New Republic allies count). Reward for New Republic allies: +20% Defense, Mastery and +20 Speed.
• After the Ultimate is used, New Republic allies ignore Taunt for the rest of the battle, and Retribution they gain becomes locked for 2 turns.

Ultimate: Fire Up the Drives

• Hits all enemies, can't be countered or evaded.
• The Ultimate text triggers the instant defeat when On the Run resets; the FAQ says it is triggered by 10 stacks of On the Run.
• Enemies immune to Instant Defeat (excluding GLs and Raid Bosses) instead lose Protection, get locked Healing Immunity, and lose 50% Defense, Offense and Speed.
