Emperor's Demise Update Information

New unit- Cassian Andor
A Rebel support character, Cassian gives his Rebel allies buffs at the start of each encounter, giving an immense advantage from the very start of a battle. An accomplished tactician, Cassian is best utilized to cripple his enemies with debuffs, leaving them easy pickings for his allies to finish off. He also has great synergy with K-2SO! Speaking of Cassian, that neatly dovetails into...

Cassian Tournament
Battle against other Galactic Champions to earn the new character from Rogue One- A Star Wars Story- Cassian Andor! This tournament should fire off Wednesday, Dec 21.
