@CG_NotReallyAJedi I feel like you kind of glazed over some major issues.
First, you state that CLS is not the be-all, end-all character in the game. This is a woefully incorrect statement. He’s in the large majority of top tier arena teams, he’s all over TW and a direct requirement for a TB node, and he’s extremely powerful in raids. He can solo heroic Rancor by himself and is integral to several of the best HAAT teams. He is literally one of, if not the most universally powerful character in the game.
Claiming JTR is just as powerful is a bold claim, given her kit and her not-so-free-to-play nature. Not only that, but it felt like panic advertisement to get people to spend on packs, triggered by the reaction to Rey’s lackluster kit. It doesn’t help that CLS is so powerful and so unobtainable to half the community, that missed him the first time. Bring CLS back and let the community decide who is better.
Second, Dark Side is weaker than Light Side, and nowhere near as plentiful. Most of the LS teams have had reworks semi-recently, but DS is lagging behind big time. They’re not as viable as LS, and their TB clearly shows that. New characters and faction passes are essential.
Those are the main concerns I had with the interview(s).
When he said that about CLS he meant for the long-term of the game - CLS is not going to be top tier forever. He effectively admitted that CLS pushed the boundaries and was a game-breaker with his skills.
