Hero and Villain Tier List
Hi All, I am trying to figure out how all the heroes rank so that I know which of the unlock-able ones to invest in.
Tiers: S, A, B, C, F

My opinion on the starter heroes
- Han Solo= B-
Han is pretty mediocre if not a little disappointing. His blaster is decently powerful taking 2-3 shots to dispatch regular troops at a rate of about .5 seconds per shot. He can temporarily rapid fire his weapon for a dps boost with rapid fire. His grenade is quite good. It deals significant damage and knocks down anything it doesn't kill. His shoulder charge is somewhat a disappointment as it deals little damage but it is a speed boost as long as you don't plan on doing any tight cornering and can knock down the first enemy he contacts. What puts him on the B tier is that he has almost no escapes if he gets in trouble compared to other heroes and can easily be stun locked by the Sith heroes. His effective range is mediocre and his rapid fire ability pales in comparison to some of the other ranged heroes damage bursts.
- Rey = A
Rey is a pretty solid hero. She has solid mobility. Solid CC. A solid health pool. And deals good damage while providing solid team utility.
- Yoda = A+
Yoda is the strongest light side hero in my opinion. He's fast, he's tiny, he's deadly. He gives great team support while giving himself a good health pool boost. His force push is extremely strong.
- Lando Calrissian = C
Lando is pretty lackluster in my opinion. His damage output is mediocre. His team utility is mediocre. His survivability is mediocre. He doesn't do anything that other character can't do better.
- Boba Fett = A-
Boba was my favorite character in #1 and he makes a pretty good showing in 2. He's still annoying being able to get places other characters can't. He still deals massive burst damage. He still has good effective range. He's still very very survivable if you know how to position well. His only downfall is that he isn't Bossk.
- Bossk = S
Who even thought this was a good idea? Bossk can 1 shot normal troops with his primary weapon at any range. He has a huge health pool considering his damage output and effective range. And he has predator mode which can zero out anything in a matter of seconds with AoE explosive damage meaning he can go toe to toe with Jedi and come out on top. He has area of denial to protect himself and vision obscuring damaging grenades to hinder ranged attackers and help him escape. He's stupidly overpowered and can easily take control of a battlefield with just a small amount of support.
- Kylo Ren = A-
Kylo is just about as unimaginative in design in the game as he was in the movies. He's got a lightsaber and he kills stuff with it. Enough said. He's nothing special as far as force users go but if you can out run, out tank, and out damage anything you come across you don't really have to have much else...
- Darth Maul = A+
Maul is a madman. He outruns everything including other force users. He can stun lock most ranged heroes to death with his flurry of melees. He can disorient ranged attackers with his mad speed. He has a great ranged harass abilities. What more do you need?
Let me know your thoughts on the heroes and where you rank them.
Note: From what I have heard, Chewy is really bad. Have not seen him action though.
