There are several devastating arena meta teams right now, Jyn does not feature in any of them, so not needed for arena. She is great for raids, but so are a bunch of other characters, so not needed for raids. GW ... take your pick, you don't need any one character for GW.

Go for her if you just really like her character or fancy playing with her abilities, you don't *need* her.

I am No 1 in my relatively young shard arena where only 3 players made it to Lvl 85 so would be interested to know which devastating meta teams you refer to. Since I run Chaze Wiggs and Jyn nobody can touch me despite the fact that Chirrut and Jyn are 5* so for our arena this is meta. Before adding Chirrut and Jyn to the team 4 other rebel teams could beat me and occasionally even the droids.

Obvious meta team is GK jedi team but nobody in my shard has GK yet. I have beaten GK teams couple of times in GW and one team had 80K HP and 240 speed GK. However I did loose two times against GK in last tournament so understand that I need to get GK urgently. I would say that any dark side team does not stand a chance against either rebels or jedi so would exclude them from meta. Clones can hit hard but still not hard enough to beat the rebels or jedi.

My team is Wiggs, Chaze and GK. My point really is that Chaze is making your team shine, not Jyn. You could sub Jyn out for Shore, or B2, or a number of other options and hold pretty much the same. Another crazy meta team is the flavour of the month Barriss zeta, especially if you have GK. Or Vader zeta, which counters it, even Maul's zeta performs very well.

Jyn is not bad but I'm not seeing her used in top level arenas on older shards, I don't see her as necessary for arena performance. I couldn't find a place for her in my top 3 squads.
