The Biggs/Wedge combo is reducing variety in the game

Shoretrooper is the answer to the Wiggs meta. If you have ever faced a Palps lead Vader TFP Shoretrooper plus one team in arena then your Wiggs team probably didn't hold up. I'm on a December 15 shard and Empire is tough against Wiggs. They are not the only team that can take first. Just the easiest to access.

I've considered ST too, but his p2p :-(

You could've easily obtained him from 2 tournaments so no he's not P2P.
Wiggs is far from a problem, Empire squads neuter them with ease.

Tournament characters are not easily obtainable at all. It's very difficult to place in the top 100 of your shard during a tournament.

Fight Wiggs on 5 GW Nodes, without protection and you know what's a fun killer. It's not all area.

Wiggs in GW is one of the easier lineups to face because they're super squishy and your team already has filled TM. You're much more likely to take significant damage facing tankier lineups like Empire, GK, Chaze, or Fives.

Dude if I minded hard work i would have shifted to a Rebels team from the first days when i saw how the situation really was. And the fact that that I have some (albeit limited) success with my empire team against some pretty close to impossible odds is a proof of that . Wanting to have a balanced game has nothing to do with it. Wanting options has nothing to do with it. Wanting some variety in enemy teams has nothing to do with it. Wanting to experience what older players experienced while they worked so hard has nothing to do with it. Actually I find pretty funny how you defend the game being pretty much broken at lower levels as some kind of character building exercise. Well not really.

Biggs unique isn't really that crazy though. Just don't attack him until you kill or stun wedge and you've managed to neuter their strongest ability.

I'm gonna be blunt and say Biggs' unique is the dumbest ability in the game, purely there for power creep.

Again, you aren't just facing Biggs and wedge, there's three others to worry about. You don't hold all aoes just to stop Biggs from getting a turn, because then the whole team will tear you apart. There are other tactics and strong abilities during a battle than just Biggs. Not pulling up the most powerful attack in the game for a short while less, at the expense of not using the abilities you need to, will only get you so far, and that is not very far.

I'm refraining from talking about how you protect them in current meta teams because meta changes, there will always be a way to make you focus on others before Biggs, so there will always be a way to let them go off.

No offence but only a wiggs abuser would not understand why his unique is so crazy

So i guess is something like hurt new players, they should have started playing sooner when there actually was some kind of variation, doesn't mater that they won't get to experience the same game like old heads. O and hurt empire teams too, just because. Rebels Rullez!

I don't think they care that much about new players any more, but I do think shoretrooper will be along soonish and he'll stop them simply owning everything at lower levels. You'll still see them everywhere though.

Rather than any intended effects, I think the current situation is to do with them somehow thinking introducing them so OP was a good idea, and then just not wanting to nerf them because everyone has them.

I blame our substandard, self serving, second place praising wuss society...

Firstly, you have no grasp on whether they will be pushed out. More Zetas can arrive which changes absolutely everything, and you don't understand current meta, which they are still top level in.

Right now wiggs+chaze is the strongest combo in the game, barring possibly barriss which I haven't seen enough of. Just because your wiggs team is bad, doesn't mean they aren't good enough. They are still simply OP damage, always have been.

They will possibly add a few more meta options, but the OP damage should still be nerfed and should've been nerfed a long time ago, or never created.

Now,
1. months of the same old shit are too long to wait in a GAME. Supposed to be balanced and fun, and could be a lot more so on noob shards without the cheese.m rather than every boring fight being against the same cheesy guys.
2. This is not even about the OP getting gratification. Anyone can farm them and have the same team. OP's point is about diversity and the fact they make the game boring. The people who want instant gratification farmed the OP cheese and didn't care or realise that it caused a power creep.
3. I blame yours and people like you's low standards and lack of vision for accepting and allowing things like this game to make cheap bucks rather than do things properly and make a nice balanced game and make money at the same time.

You are another one who is only interested in not having his characters nerfed.

Cardiff gets it.I have TFP but i can't use his aoe because he is empire, I can't use Bobas because gods forbid he hits Biggs with an crit. I tried stunning Wedge with Daka or atacking him with a speed modded Rey, no dice. Even if I get to kill Wedge, a whole turn has passed and Lando starts raining hell upon me.

So my only solution is to keep hitting refresh until i can target another one of the few poor bastards that don't abuse Wiggs + Lando.
And since ios users received Wefge for free (or maybe they are just whales) there are a LOT of new players with Wedge.

Meta today...beta tomorrow.
That's why it's best to just enjoy the game and not focus on creating a meta team

They are just pure butt. I tried to tell everyone they needed nerfing when they became f2p but everyone just wanted to abuse them

Honestly with mets, Zeta barriss is probably an equal, or more of a handful at this point. I wouldn't even be so annoyed if
a) they hadn't been cheesing in every single team for several months now
b) they were good characters that anyone here cared about. They are nobody pilots!! It's crazy to have them so powerful.

Nerf Baze Malbus and Chirrut too!
