I've spent thousands upon thousands of dollars on this game over the years and I have spent several hundred dollars gearing the Geos(all but poogle are g13) and I have to say I am completely dismayed and appalled at you guys(CG)!! Not sorry to say, if this is indeed left in the game you will NEVER see another dollar of mine!! And I'm sure this will create another exodus.. We have all seen many long time players leave the game permanently recently both from guilds and arena/fleet shard chats and the trend is likely to continue with these type of choices. And I usually and the fan boi on here praising you guys and I have donated money to all of your game day events and friends with cancer on go fund me; so no one need try to make this post out to be like I'm trolling you guys here. This is just another reason to stop spending in swgoh and start looking to other games.

Buh-Bye!

is that called for ??

On principal yes it's wrong of CG to allow this bug to continue.
However
For this to work you need a g11 or at the very least least g10 Jawa squad and even then it's a crap shoot. There are other effective teams that will net you more banners with less RNG. As well as way better characters to gear with a wider range of uses.

This also helps the F2P players so if Jawas are now a Geo counter so be it.

You still need the Geos to be 16,500 a piece to be able to even play the special mission in Geo TB. 2 of their ships are pretty good also. I still use (and win) with Sun Facs damage soaking ship

Precisely this. That is why Ahnaldt101 failed spectacularly in his last GA trying to take out a Geo squad with poorly geared Jawas. If you get them all up to G11 and mod for health and protection you are fine.

I don’t see this as a problem. I whaled out on Brute and at first I was a bit concerned — but with so many priorities in the game, Jawas aren’t close to the top. If by random chance a person loves them and can take out my GEOs, i just hope they make a video

1. Even if they use them, it’s at great point loss in GA

2. Only old timers who farmed them for mods should have access to a squad... so that narrows the chance of encounters

3. There won’t be a mass farming of them with some many other better grinds — just for 1 — yes — 1 use ... speaking of that one use ...

4. In GA scan your opponent, if they have them — don’t place them on defense — and look ... they just wasted resources for 1 and 1 only potential thing that’s *avoidable*

Use them on offense. I have yet to lose to a non-meta team. It’s a fun team to play and they hit pretty hard and recover nicely.

Anyone with an account prior to Mod Energy has Jawas to a least GS9 for the old mod challenges. Still, having Geos on Offense negates any Jawa advantage.

Jawas have no use outside of the Geo killers. Maybe they will have use in LS GeoTB? Who knows?

Still more fun to play the Geos on offense, similar to how fun Shaak Ti is with her Clones. Makes for interesting battles, anyways.

Oh yes they are quite enjoyable on offense — especially great for undersized feats as well

But since the OP was about defense, I tailored the response for defensive reasons why Jawas don’t concern me. And on DEF it’s nice to have the opponent waste traya or NS— just makes the back wall that more sturdy

Really annoys me that they’re letting this interaction go. I could imagine the people who spent money on getting brood alpha to 7* g13 will be irritated to know Jawas can win by doing nothing. Halfway invalidated their investment by letting this fly, very disappointed CG but that’s not surprising these days

finally someone who understands why the jawas have to be fixed

I almost liked this post because I thought he was kidding.
What the heck nerf jawas, better nerf cup also just in case.

So i tried in GAC my Jawas (g8-9) against good Geons deff team, and i failed, because my Jawas died too quickly, i managed anyway to kill at least 1 before dying.

But if i even would have make it, i would never get out with a great margin in terms of banner, because you'll loose quite a few Jawas before winning, therefore it is a counter yes, but if you're in a "thight banner" situation, i would prefer to use another team to take out the Geons instead of Jawas.

On the flip side it does make me feel better about investment in jawas

At least they now have some use. They were worthless for HAAT

Im gonna laugh super hard when they rework jawas and they die vs geos but crush gg droid squads
