Another Rebels thread

Its not my intention to start yet another debate about the quality of the tv show (there are plenty of other threads for that), but i just want to make a quick point. It really doesnt matter what ...

My problem is not that the new characters are from the Rebels show, is that they are rebels, already the bigest and strongest faction.

I think CG is aware of that concern which is why they went all out on dark side and dispellers to counter, then give phoenix squad more internal synergy than rebel synergy. Even most of the R1 rebels (other than chaze which works with most teams) don't have much more synergy with Wiggs, Lando, etc than any other toons. Having this many rebels was inevitable just because of how many major characters are rebels and what the original character roster looked like.

They've been wanting to add toons from Rebels for a long time now (mobilegamer has an interview with jesse from a while ago that confirms this) but they waited until the meta shifted away from OT rebels to add them. So I think they did the best job they could and deserve some props.
