- Even though his on-screen presence is limited to only the Ahsoka series, we loved the gravitas and power Ray Stevenson brought to the role and thought him and the character he portrayed worthy of an Epic Confrontation

Strategy Tips:
- Being a Mercenary Leader, Baylan Skoll can hand out stacks of Soldier of Fortune to Mercenary allies, including the existing characters who received the Mercenary tag retroactively. At the start of battle all Mercenaries receive a stack of Soldier of Fortune for each Mercenary ally they have, so a full Merc squad will see 5 additional stacks on every character. Additionally, whenever he Taunts, a random Mercenary Ally gets a stack of Soldier of Fortune. Finally, he doubles the amount of stacks that Mercenary allies receive
