I am still totally on the fence. I am glad you are trying to change the game away from the speed meta. However as a FTP it is now really hard to me to prioritise where to put my resources. As the challenges are so hard now I would need to pour resources into attackers to beat Veers and Tarkin and I just don't want to do that. I think one solution to help FTP players would be to add a few more characters into each of the places to farm (arena shipments, gw shipments, cantina tokens and cantina battles). So for example I am farming both an ewok team and a rebel team. However with the current update I am pretty desperate to land a high health, high protection character that hits hards. Savage would be perfect. But im farming Storm trooper Han. There aren't too many other characters that meet this criteria (maybe 5's aside) that are FTP farmable. Or at least can be farmed in a hurry to help us catch up with these changes that have been made in the update.
In addition I think RG needs some sort of look at. The whole point of this update was to create variety in teams. But he will be in every team still. Maybe change it so he can only taunt once or twice. Not every time you knock an opponent down half their health. He is so hard to kill and protects all the other characters so much more than all other tanks.
In addition I think the nerf to speed characters was too harsh. I agree there should have been a nerf. But protection did that already. Eeth Koth is completely useless. And to add insult to injury yoda sucks now. And yoda is the greatest jedi ever known and he is the only reason I farmed Koth. If I knew yoda would be so bad I would have farmed.......you guessed it......savage!.
So I guess I think it may have been better to introduce protection first and then change speed meta in another update. Or at least not have nerfed certain characters so much.
