Balance

What would you say is the most balanced hero on each side? 
I'm trying to figure out a tier list, and would like community opinions.

Thanks.

  • On LS probably everyone except for Finn, Luke, Anakin and Obi-Wan. On DS everyone except for Grievous, Vader and Kylo.

    @UrWeakAndAFoolI'd say that Kylo is rather balanced in both HvH and infantry modes. Although he has great tactical abilities that allow him to avoid being hit or good targeting/harassing opponents, you're (like with most other saber heroes) just toast when you make one mistake or have lag/bad latency in the wrong moment.

    He doesn't have an extra health regeneration card like some other heroes, which can be pretty bad once being low at health. Means you have to slowly work your way back to a reasonable HP pool again.

    His advantage is just that he has 3 abilities that are really useful against both heroes and infantry, while heroes like Anakin are centered around one great ability while the other abilities are more good as combo (and otherwise rather useless) with, in Anakin's case, the magnet. So Kylo doesn't need to have that one certain certain ability cooled down to get into action again.

    It all comes down to the fact that the devs had some nice ideas, but the multiplayer reality shows that some ability just sound good but don't really work/are ineffective against human players.

    On DS I'd rather call Maul unbalanced because his speed really doesn't make up for his low overall damage ouput and speed doesn't help at all against lag/bad latency. Also his animation windows are just too welcoming for enemy fire. And his abilities are mostly no great help to effectively dispatch targets right away without receiving a lot of enemy fire. Means his left and middle ability don't help you to lock on targets and rather work against you.

    And then there's Iden, who unites all annoying and cheesy gadgets of a BF 2015 soldier.
