Can you save against a critical hit with SSM or Evade?

Some abilities make different rolls critical hits such as Deadly Attack or Vapaad Style, or can mutiple the damage on a critical hit more such as Vicious Attack. Bottom line is it is the same thing as a regular attack so how you would deal with a regular attack you would do the same with critical.

Ok thanks. I was playing against some dude using a mandalorian squad and he told me i couldn't save for criticals. I should have told him he was wrong seeimg as I always have to correct him about the rules anyways.

Yeah, I've had the debate before with my brother when my General Secura deflected a crit from his super.
A crit is an "automatic hit"
Most abiltities say "take no damage"
So it still hits - they could use flurry if applicable, for instance - but the damage is prevented

the only critical you can't make a save against is disintegration

What you have to keep in mind is Evade and Deflect negate the damage. The attack still must hit the character to use those abilities.
Oh...and Disintegration is a special ability that works when a 20 is rolled on the dice. Just so happens that by the rules a 20 rolled is also a critical hit.

You also have to watch out when an Elite AT-AT Driver combines fire with an adjacent ally with the Mounted Weapon SA. Since the Elite AT-AT Driver has the "Crack Gunner" SA, the damage from the attack he combines fire with cannot be prevented/reduced.
