Squad Arena Imbalance

It seems to me that character balance is pretty poor in the arena at the moment.

It seems like Darth Nihilist is in every single team. His ability to stall teams by increasing their cool downs and then zero someone instantly with very little real counter-play existing in the game is pretty silly.

Baze and Charrut also are too strong. These characters just have stacked kits, especially when used together. Either their damage output needs to be drastically reduced or their utility needs to be drastically reduced. Right now they deal as much damage as attackers but are top tier in their role as tank and healer respectively at the same time.

Rex also seems highly problematic. When he's lead he grants way too much support and deals huge damage on top.

I understand that once you nerf one flavor of OP, the next in line comes to the top, but these characters in particular just seemed inherently over-stacked. What's worse is that there is no reliable way to access these characters. So not only is Pay to Win, but it is RNG pay to win (the worst kind IMO).

    You're a unintelligent person if you think this is a logical response...

    You're foolish if you think nerf begging ever gets a response.

    Not pay to win. Chaze, DN, and Rex are all farmable. These should staples of anyone's collection. Use PvP winnings to buy Baze shards if you must, until you get him to at least 4*.
  • I like the way there has been no contest about these being overpowered characters...
  • There's not going to be a nerf or 'balancing' to Chaze so what's the point of arguing over whether they're OP or not. Horse is not just dead, it's been repeatedly resurrected and then beaten to death over and over again.

    Nihilus on the other hand may be getting nerf since Cool down Increase is getting a developer review.
