Royal Guard rework!

A new Unique for Royal Guard:

Loyal Servant (UNIQUE)

https://swgoh.gg/static/img/assets/tex.abilityui_passive_def_resistance.png

Royal Guard has +50% Counter Chance while he has Taunt and a 50% chance to remove 20% Turn Meter from each enemy when he is damaged. Emperor Palpatine gains Defense equal to 15% of Royal Guard's Max Health and can't be Critically Hit while Royal Guard is alive.

(ZETA): In addition, Royal Guard gains 10% Tenacity (stacking) when he is Critically Hit.

    He is squishy because whats the point of non tanks having the same if not more health than actual tanks, Palpatine is a seriously powerful character and the tradeoff is less health, there is no such thing as a perfect character


    And this is precisely where Royal Guard comes in - to protect Palpatine! This Unique will make RG viable and more consistent with canon lore, because in his current state he is underpowered and doesn't feel very "elite", unlike DT acting as an elite protector to Krennic!


    Did you forget that Royal Guard already protects everyone?! There is also Stormtrooper and Shoretrooper, what you are suggesting is to make a okay character almost comparable to Palpatine

    He will be in no way comparable to Palpatine! He certainly does not protect everyone like Shore does and he certainly does not protect Palpatine like he should be and that's the issue here - Shore is not an elite but is a far better tank than RG who is elite!
