Rebels Basic Training Event

Can someone please tell me what the point of forcing a group on you that flat out cannot beat the final level, unless you happen to get lucky.
I mean Old Ben and R2?? Like there isn't any other rebels that can be put in there. Old Ben is trash! No matter which way you slice it, and R2 is basically worthless in high level fights, unless it is an AI controlled R2 then he's frickin invincible. Also seems that Han, who is supposed go be a top tier guy can't seem to take a hit without losing more than half his armor. C'mon there isn't even a auto fight option. That's lame!!
I've done tbis battle maybe a dozen times, and get smoked every time, maybe take the Tie pilot and a stormtrooper with me. Cause the emperor seems to be a 1 shot kill guy, and Thrawns second move if it doesn't outright kill you, you maybe have a spec of red left which Vader cleans right up.
Now up until the final battle it was good, gave me a chance to use some toons I normally wouldn't use, but to force a lame group for the end battle is just a shame. A really good and fun event just to get boned at the end with a group that is half dead weight.
Look I get the point of the event, let's everyone know what each of these rebels can do, but final battles should be a player choice roster, especially given the difficulty of the battle.

Ok said my piece.

If anyone has any tips on beating the final battle. I would certainly welcome the help.

  • First post to the forums, and still learning the game.

    Using the comments on this thread were extremely helpful, and I won in my first (somewhat strategic) attempt at this after getting wiped several times.

    Below are all the steps I took to Victory (apologies for any error or omissions). Of course, your mileage may vary with crits at different times on different toons, and other randomness. Hope it’s helpful.

    Have fun!
