Return of The Sith...Month (February)
While everyone's talking about ships this month, I'm looking forward to next month. With Sith month coming up in 2 weeks, I'm noticing that it won't give the us the usual amount of time to farm Carth,...

This’ll probably never happen but I just want a Vader rework where he’ll be one of those constant meta toons like thrawn or Rex, or maybe just on the level of wampa. It’s a shame that the best villain in this game is as disrespected as he is.
He's still useful, especially for raids, and in the top 100 I still see plenty of darth vader's being used. I only dropped him for Bastila.
Plus he's been reworked a couple times now. What would be cool is if they had a dark side anakin via hero's fall journey or whatever.
He has been officially reworked a total of once, in sith month of last year alongside Palpatine. In the initial rework they were able to beat CLS but were still beaten by JTR. Palpatine lead only got really good when Sion was released, and then Vader was part of the Nightmare team Meta, although he was often replaced for sith trooper or wampa, and was completely phased out when Traya was released.
Vader received a zeta in the first wave in 2016 on his leader, and although he was an effective leader for raids, he was a B at best in arena (he had a small niche with TFP and boba Fett for a little while) but was utterly destroyed when CLS was released. And to make things worse, his raid glory was thanks to a glitch that was then patched, making many people who obtained his zeta ask for refunds.
And before all that, he was general Grievous (meaning he was insanely difficult to obtain but was completely and utterly useless). Vader has at his best times been a good raid character and a not unviable choice for arena, and at his worst a nearly useless toon overshadowed by many more viable characters undeserving of their glory. There are so many characters that are and always will be immortalized in the history of this game thanks to one new mechanic that makes them stand out far among the rest, and if Vader, the face of Star Wars, the best movie villain of all time, the emperors fist, doesn’t deserve to be placed among these characters, I don’t know who does.
Also dark side anakin would be neat but I’d prefer a Vader rework
