Actually Kylo Ren Unmasked actually isn't that bad, even in arena. I recently started pursuing a FO meta, and while gear wise they are no more than gear XI, I have managed to bring them to position 90 in my arena shard. While there probably are better setups the key I found is focus on speed.

My current team is Kylo Ren Unmasked (L), Kylo, FO Officer, Phasma, and FO Special Forces Tie Pilot. Their Speed in order is 210, 186, 191, 243, and 202. Add 30 from Kylo's leader ability and it is a pretty quick team. Still working on making them faster. This team has worked for me, because I can usually get Kylo unmasked to stun before the other team goes. I use FO Order Officer to use kylo's second special which also stuns. Then use SFTPs Oppresive Burst to stun another. Phasma's Victory March gives me extra turn meter, allowing me to ussually get a second turn before most of the other squad, and when using Phasma's Fusillade (-25% speed debuff) and SFTPs Drumfire (+25% speed), I can get close to 50% turn meter gain on the other squad if most get speed down applied.

In the end, so long as your not shut down in the beginning, I can often get to use Kylo Unmasked's stun a second time before the first expires from all the extra turn meter gains I can apply to my team. I have several arena matches where the entire team is stunned because of this.

As a bonus kylo unmasked's leader ability significantly increases crit damage which is useful for both him and kylo to regain massive health and protection, as well as provides 20% turn meter on crits and bonus 5% health and protection when a FO ally gains a status effect (including debuffs).

This team likely won't get you into the top ten in arena, but I can see it getting me to the top 20 or 50, with the right mods, which is how I got the speed up. With exception of FO Officer, which uses the speed mods, the rest of my teams speed comes from speed secondaries of 10+ and the arrow mod +30 speed primary.

Teams this will not do well against are teams with General Kenobi and one or more of the others: Thrawn, Solo (raid) Emporor Palpatine, Darth Sion, Jedi Training Rey. Well Geared Mother Talzin teams also are difficult due the high number of ways characters can resurrect; low geared teams though my team does well against.

For now this team keeps me within the top 200 in arena which where I want to be, In TWs this team often goes for multiple rounds (12 is my highest) if positioned in the middle or back territories. Hope this info helps you all.
