JML, Galactic what???

So with the arrival of Satele Shan, what happens to JML finally? Revan is moving to her squad, and JML is going to get even weaker than he already is. Already now he is even more useless than SEE....

He's old both literally and in game. Its how power creep works.

If you're depending on JML things will get better as your roster improves, in the mean time you've got a new toon who will probably give you more and punch up, while JML will be as effective as he is now as a low tier GL who can be quite handy at low to mid levels and in end game used to beat some good non-GL teams.

It's not like he was every on a par with even GLs that came out around the time he did with only SEE sitting below him. Also for what he is useful now Revan isn't essential at all. You're jumping the gun massively here.

That's not true. Back when there were only the first 4 GLs, JML was THE SLK-killer. He was also very useful later on against the old LV lineup with DV. In the meantime, SLK - the very first GL in the game(!) - got a great lifter in DRey. Rey, the second GL, seems to get a new lifter with every fifth new toon. JML seems to be the only GL that is no longer capable of beating another GL. Even with SEE, that’s still possible, at least with Bane.
I’m not sure if JKCK was ever intended as a lifter for JML; in any case, it barely helped him progress. Both seem to take forever to reach their ultimate.
I can hardly remember encountering a JML at any point in the last year or further back, neither in GA nor TW. That pretty much says it all about his status. And we all know that’s not because he’s such a great attacker that he never shows up in defense.
His performance is more on par with a better non-GL squad. That’s pathetic for a Galactic Legend and that's what I'm complaining about. It doesn't feel right.
