I know by know everyone mustve notice the “Jedi” Luke Skywalker in the new load screen art. Now I call upon the veteran SWGOH players so we can theorycraft on his initial release - based on past experience... will it be a legendary event or marquee event - Im aiming more towards a legendary event. That being said - the most important followup questiwhat will be the required toon... should i rewatch Return of the Jedi and keep an eye out for key characters??? Will Vader be Involved - as he is Lukes counter character in the movie... (I dismiss this idea because almost everyone has vader, most likely zeta and 7* - EA wont make as much money as they could)... or maybe Vader will be involved but we might have a new character introduced. Maybe a C3PO - as a utility toon like bb8? Lando Calrissian... will the May login toon offer a hint...tl;drAccording to cannon/lore/books/movies what characters would probably be required for Jedi Luke should a legendary event get implemented for his release...(im not a fan of panic farming).Question: How do you believe Jedi Luke will be released and if applicable to your theory what characters will be needed?

He was in the original art for the game too and he is still not in the game.

Any player within a year of playing this game and getting a little bit acknowledge on how things go on the forum and the game can tell you that the splash screen means nothing to characters and getting them into the game. Jedi luke was in the previous screen and in this one and in this one he got pushed in the back. So in my opinion it means nothing, but in the case he came to game, hermit yoda will be my first guess as a toon required...

As others have said, the load screen means nothing.If Jedi Luke comes into the game, it would be another Hero's Journey. Required toons could possibly be hermit Yoda, CHS, rolo, r2, CLS. The journey to get CLS followed ANH so I'm guessing to get Jedi Luke it will follow ESB.

The toons tRequired might be like these:Hermit YodaCLSC3PO(Might Need some other Characters like JKA and others)CHS and ROLO..and may be Wampa to spike the difficulty

You won't be seeing Jedi Luke then. It'll be space cowboy Woody, Space Khaleesi and 'young' chewie/Han/Lando“Space Khaleesi”

Hermit Yoda - Check (a hard to farm character ) makes sense

Yep. Possibly on anniversary of the movie in may, although that might be ambitious

If/when they release Jedi Luke it make sense if they do it in relation with a rework of Jedi as a faction. I hope they will release him in a legendary event and not marquee,it is a character that really deserves a legendary event. If so Hermit yoda is almost a given, maybe Rolo and raid Han as well. Vader should be a requirement given his importance to Luke bit not dure how they would fit that into the event. One or two requires toons will likely be new releases as well (like vets for RJT), C3P0 would then fit in well.

My current working theory is this:

Luke Skywalker (Jedi Knight). Releases May 4th in a Hero's Journey event. Similar to the Commander Luke event, he will be acquired using characters that helped him in the movie to become a Jedi Knight. To that end, his required characters may be:

Hermit Yoda (his trainer on Dagobah, the only obvious choice.)
Ben Kenobi (told him to go to Dagobah, and his mentor)
R2-D2 (with Luke for everything)
Hoth Han (with Luke on hoth, rescued him from freezing to death)
Hoth Leia (with Luke on hoth, was a leader against the imperials during the battle of hoth)
Lando (tangentially related to the Luke plot, but did help rescue Luke at the end)

Some ideas for new characters that may get released for this event (panic farm inducers):

Dak
C-3PO
Rebel Chewbacca

If I'm wrong, there will likely be a new Villain's journey event, and sometime soon. Perhaps May 4th. The villains journey could feature anyone, but I'm betting Anakin. He has the most compelling journey of any villain. And it would give them a Journey character from every trilogy.

Great feedback! Wampa is on my Farm list right now, ROLO - sure to 7* after 2 more TB. Im going to go hYoda after wampa... i have all the legendary toons already - check.

Anythoughts on Tuscans - I believe EA analyzes their data to see which toon noone has or is he least farmed - then makes them a requirement for something...
