It's funny, I seem to have an inkling of foresight but still never have the time to be able to act on it.
I started in Feb just before RG got auto-taunt and farmed him from the off because that was obviously going to be strong. It took months to max him and by that time he had already become an arena staple.
When protection was announced I realised that having 2 taunters would be massively beneficial and perhaps even help run the clock down on arena defences. ST Han is a far quicker farm so I wasn't too far behind this meta actually emerging.
With the rise of the Rey, qgj, RG combo I realised aoe would be the most effective way to kill her off behind the wall of taunting, so started farming Lando. It was only recently I managed to max him out but I'm already outclassed by wiggs, anakin and palps.
I knew as soon as mods came out that they'd be important so piled all my resources into them but still am well behind on the good ones.
It's a tough life not having the resources to act on what you can see happening. It's like watching the next fascist megalomaniac taking over the most powerful country in the world and not having the money to build a nuclear bunker...
