Lobot + Droids ??

I've heard people say Lobot is pretty much useless w the addition of JE, but I don't know if that's necessarily true

even with lobot lead they wont outspeed the arena meta characters

Lobot an Anti-Anti-Droid specialist, what I mean by that is; if droids were overpowered people would use teams with characters that stun droids with AoEs. Except Lobot isn't a droid, gains tenacity and speed from droid allies, and could his optimize ability will remove those stuns and heal and increase their turn meter, so they would have at least one turn to counter attack against Jawas, Ugnaught, or Eeth Koth.
Unfortunately droids don't seem strong enough to reach number 1 and so these counter teams aren't viable, honestly I feel like droids should be buffed a bit and then maybe these sorts of teams could be used.

im almost maxed with my Lobot.. with the way this game does things he will be elite eventually. might as well prep him in the meantime.

I think they purposefully let characters get bad so they can push them in the shops and make them essential..
ex. royal guard etc.

This. The extra speed would be nice but since droids are so slow it doesn't make them go faster than Rey or Leia. HK's omega leader ability is possibly the best leader ability in the game so he should always be used for droids.

Thanks, everyone. I've been using HK's omega leader ability and it's worked really well for me. I found it hard to believe that Lobot's speed increase would top that, but I wanted to see what anyone else thought.
