How OP is CLS?

He just broke all diversity in the arena. Before him u could play some DS or jedis and getting a chance to take the top 10. But now it's just impossible against him. his leadership, specialy the retribution should be revisited. That make all others rebels still more unbalanced as they was before.

Same counter chance as gar Saxon lead. I really don't think that is what makes cls lead good. Full couter teams have been around for a while.

@kat so you are saying unequivocally that no team no matter what, even if maxed g12's cannot beat a team with CLS, so dont even try just give up and moan about it on forums

All im saying is g12 is a new card game and not everyone has even annied up yet. Theres no way you can say cls will win everything b4 the g12 game has even really started.

-hermit yoda
-smugler han
-smugler chewy

It's very likely one maybe more of these will be needed to unlock the next legendary character that will put cls at the back of the bus...

Thats "be smart about juice" in its raw form. Any hero that is at tbe top will come down eventually in this game, maybe not tomorrow or the month after that, but a new, better character will replace him... eventually till then you gotta roll with the punches bud.

Sure he's fun to use, But it's forcing anyone who wants to compete to run CLS, GK, R2, and Chaze. Basically an unbeatable team right there. Nihilus is gone, Thrawn is disappearing quickly and almost gone. Really not much point in even trying for anything else right now.

I run that team still. Only upgraded GK an R2 to g12. I'm not unbeatable. Thrawn under CLS lead is annoying to my team.

Nobody is forced to use those toons. Thrawn (L), Krooper, shore and stormtrooper can beat those teams as well. It may just happen that not many people have all five of them geared.

I run empire in arena. Thrawn L shore storm DT and Dn. I can beat cls teams if zolo dosnt stun Thrawn at the start but if he does stun thrawn it's over quick. Cls is the easy button, and while I don't blame folks for using him. It's the devs that have driven arena into the ditch.

Plain and simple it's just NOT FUN to play the same team over and over and over and over. No diversity no balance, not to mention all the cls teams in gw. It's a fiasco!

I just say the G12 gear will not change the fact of how he's is unbalanced, and may be it can be worst with all advantage he already give at rebels.Rebels was already the faction who had the best synergie, given them cls put them still so far.
And even if u can beat him, that doesn't mean is not OP anymore.

I'm glad they begin to introduce other good toons than rebels, specialy on smugler who really needed it, and finaly boba lead will be usefull.
But the cls kit is so strong that he will always on a team for arena,like the chaze combo had since many months.And just take a look at his utility even on raids, his kit of abilities have no egal.

I don't have him, and I don't really have a problem with him or teams that run him. I briefly made it to 1st on my arena shard today even. Wedge can crit over 30k, so can Chirrut and Kylo, and Vader/Boba too.

He's a tough cookie, but I just look at him as a challenge to overcome.

I think the issue is that CLS along with gXII bring tremendous imbalance for arena the way it is currently devised which leads to the idea he's too OP.

Since arena is dependent upon age of shard, CLS rules the day easily in younger shards but in an older shard especially nov/dec 2015 he's on almost every team in the top 100 which means he's less valuable there and more of a requirement.

Where he really shines is in raids and GW, I believe in 6 months when he's come around again he will still be a top toon but no longer OP because other toons will get boosts from gXII to even out

Well its luke...hes suppose to be op. Im glad he is as is. Certain chars get the pass on op. Now chaze...who are they....to much op for unknowns. When jedi luke comes i expect even more op...and thats expected. And i agree, ds is in shambles. I hope when GG gets reworked he is godly op....DS deserve it

Kim Jong-un is afraid of CLS

Boba+Chewie+Veteran Han seems as a good solution
