Don't know what the official ruling is, but I'd tend to agree. At least
it's in the spirit of the card. Yakuza assasin finds your team, singles
out a runner and forces that runner into a situation where the rest of
the team helps him. If the runner defeats the assasin, he meets up with
the rest of the team. If the runner dies, the team ends up looking for
him which takes them away from the run. If the rest of the team could
help, I imagine they would. I don't think that most runners are going
to sit there and accept a one on one challenge willingly when they
outnumber the opponent. Just my take on it.
