No way! Poe is the best tank for droids. The reason this is, is because Poe exposes, leaving IG-88 for sick aoe's.
Until you come up against a speed dps team and they kill 88 before Poe gets to go. RG is better at preventing that, but it can still happen.
I love my droids, was glad to be able to use them again. But, they are beatable and still are bad on defense. The video posted was an all offensive droid/geo team, of course they will wreck on offense. But, they will get destroyed on defense against a speed meta team.
I have dusted my droids off and used them in arena and they do great on offense, but can't hold a spot, and do not do well vs certain dps teams. Today I went back to Dooku/Daka/RG/GS and I'm doing just as good on offense and holding spots a little better.
This update has opened the meta allowing for more diverse team comps. Seeing a lot of different characters on my leaderboard now. I feel that it is a good change. Droids are not OP, they are good but beatable just like almost every other team out there. When we get to lvl 80 and Max abilities my opinion on that may change.
This deserves to be a meme... "Says game has more diversity now | Goes back to his meta team to prevent getting beaten" So much for diversity...
You had to replace your droid team for RG team because, it's not enough to win 100% of the games, but other people must lose all of theirs vs your team? Seriously...there is nothing else i can write here, that won't get edited by mods...

The point is that the leaderboards are more diverse. I can win with my droid team, but my old meta team is still better. My old meta team is still beatable though, even by droids. That is a good thing, IMO. Where did I say "other people must lose all of theirs vs my team". I didn't. I said the game is more diverse and now FTP have a good option to be competitive. Of course I will put in the team I feel is most effective, who wouldn't?

This is getting better and better....Do you know why something as silly as GQJ leader (without any jedi in team) came to play? Because droids were OP as F. The only way to counter them was to kill ig88 before poggle/poe turn comes. This is the sole reason of why GQJ meta was born. Non wake up and said "Today i ll farm GQJ, just to put him as leader on my non jedi team, lol"
Then Yoda event arrived and since yoda speed was also high, being a jedi helped GQJ ensure 1 hero kill before enemy team can play. And because of that, we got the Dooku led teams, to counter GQJ meta, that was created because of the OP droids.
Do you ever played any non meta team??- Droids are not op. I just wanted to show my team. I actually think no team is OP now.

Why can't droids have a place and be competitive in this meta without people calling for nerfs? The whole point of the update was getting away from the one shot speed teams that you have to have to be competitive. Now the meta has opened up and droids are actually playable again and people start calling for nerfs. We are not even at the cap yet! No one knows how well they will do when everyone is lvl 80 with maxed abilities.
The droids are a great option for FTP players to be competitive. Why shouldn't it be relatively easy to farm up a team that can compete at top levels? I could understand if droids were unbeatable, but they aren't, by a long shot. They also can't always beat the dps speed teams, a lot of it still depends on RNG.
Yes the update was to fix one shot speed teams but also slower characters were supposed to see a slight damage increase. It didn't even balance everything out. I was looking forward to playing other characters that I have at max level but nope. So there goes my Anakin, Assajj, Jawa, Dantcha and Cad Bane collecting more dust.
I agree driods are a great option for a f2p and they are better than more harder to get/farm characters damage and synergy wise. But I don't agree with an update that is a blanket damage nerf to an entire roster yet droid teams can still do 9k crits and others exclusive characters doing measly damage like the heck."CPMP;314614" wrote:

Droids were never "OP as F". Maybe you had a problem beating them, but most others didn't. The meta was all due to Poe. Poe wasn't only used on droid teams, he was used on a lot of different team comps, including the later speed meta teams. I ran droids for a long time, before and after the speed change. I lost to a lot of different teams on offense and defense. Also, Poe did not even need a nerf, once the speed change happened it ended his reign as top meta toon, which would have happened with or without the nerf.
Are you mad because you made bad choices on who to farm and can't keep up with the evolving meta? Why do you feel the need to make things personal? Can we not just have an adult conversation without resorting to insults?
We will have different opinions, that doesn't mean we can't respect each other and have a conversation and just agree to disagree."JediMindTricks;314661" wrote:

Hey, I'm not totally happy with the update either. The balancing didn't happen and slow toons do not hit harder like what was promised. But the answer to that isn't to nerf droids, then we will be stuck back at speed/dps like before. Why not instead of calling for droids to be nerfed, call for the slower toons to be buffed, like what was said would happen. I would like to see that too, it would open up the meta even more.
I don't have Rey, but I'm not calling for her to be nerfed. My RG is only 5*, my Daka is only 6*. I make do with what I have and focus my farming efforts on making the best team possible. I can't be responsible for who others choose to farm.
I am no whale either. I bought the droid starter pack and DS starter pack which gave me Greedo when I first started playing. I haven't spent anything since, but have managed to keep up with the changing metas."CptCaveman;314679" wrote:

Lol? GS was the first hero i farmed and he still rots at 60lvl and gear VIII. I had to leave him because everyone farmed him and i wanted to try more combinations. Also the first Sith i farmed was Dooku, which i used him and still use him as leader, but i also aknowledge that his leadership needs a nerf. 15/20 teams using him is a strong indication. Not everyone acts like you. (Farm only the top tier toons and then tries to find excuses in order to defend them from being nerfed) I belong to the portion of people that actually care about the game. That care about the 80% of unused toons. I want real diversity in this game and i actually TRY for it. I belong to the 4 people in my shard in top 20, that used different squads than the meta ones, because they are sick with using the same heroes over and over just to get easy wins. Again, don't imply that everyone acts like you, because this is what i take as insult.- Not really meta... Replace QG with daka you would have lost badly.
Good to see the droids back though "CPMP;314721" wrote:

GS was also the first toon I farmed to 7* and I still use him. No where have I ever said I don't want the 80% of unused toons to be unusable. I would love for the meta to open up more to allow those toons to be used, but how does nerfing droids make that possible? So they nerf droids and we go back to speed/dps only, how does that help?
I have slow toons that I spent time and resources farming up and are still unused, but that doesn't mean you need to nerf the viable toons. Maybe those slow toons still need some work.
I play to win, you may play different. I hated the speed/dps meta, but I changed my team and farmed up who I needed to be successful. If you didn't, hey that's your choice. But, don't come calling for nerfs for every "op" team that you can't beat because you didn't keep up. I evolve to the state of the game, you seem to want the game to evolve to suit you.
We haven't even got to level cap yet. No one knows what the new meta will be. I'm hoping it opens up farther and allows for more synergized teams. Why not wait and see how things shake out once we get to cap and everyone has Max abilities? People calling for unnecessary nerfs seems to be a thing here on the forums. That's how we ended up with an unneeded nerf for Barris, and an unneeded nerf for Poe.
