Imo he needs a nerf. Before him there was diversity to arena which was fun. Now it's just put a bunch of rebels with CLS and you've made top 20.
Also why can he crit for 32k? Are you actually mad?! What the hell is ROTJ Luke supposed to hit for?

Interested to hear thoughts.

I kick myself every day for not getting him, since he indeed is insanely good. Don't expect a nerf, as that would cause an uproar, and I'm sure he was intended to be as good as they made him.

Anyway, the best option for anyone who doesn't have him is to start working on arena teams that are anti-crit, with abilities like stun/daze/stealth and attacks like annihilate and fracture. The two best options are probably:

General Kenobi (L), zBarriss, zR2D2, Nihilus, Thrawn
Rex (L), General Kenobi, zR2D2, Nihilus, Thrawn

CLS can one shot Rex before Kenobi taunts.

Its why there are almost no dark side teams in the arena now. When the average light side toon can be faster than a dark side toon under a Maul lead, there isn't much chance for dark side to compete.

No lightside toon can beat a Sith assassin under Maul lead.
Tarkin & Veers are viable leaders and bring a lot of speed.
Dooku, Sidious, Zam and TFP are among the fastest toons around, TFP being the fastest.

Never encountered a FO team either i guess, cause i wouldn't say they're the slowest around.

Seriously.

Are you running those toons in arena yourself? Seriously. They're maybe faster but except Veers, Tarkin (also not as lead) and Thrawn, DS is out of the game. Top 50 is plenty of this CLS teams with the same toons. CLS, GK, R2, Han + 1. Boring ...
