Time to Add The Acolyte Characters

The Acolyte, which aired in 2024, introduced several fresh and compelling characters to the Star Wars universe.
Characters like Mae, Osha, Master Sol, and the mysterious Sith figure each bring unique traits and combat potential that could add new depth and creativity to SWGOH.

Notably, Master Sol is portrayed by Lee Jung-jae, the global star of Squid Game, who will return to screens in Squid Game Season 3 this June.
Including a character played by such a high-profile actor could draw interest from both Star Wars fans and a broader global audience.

We’ve already seen how characters from The Mandalorian and Andor helped breathe new life into the game. Why not do the same with The Acolyte?

  • Yeah lets not have them. The twins can go die, the boring soyboy Jedi can go die, all of the other Jedi can go die. There were no good characters in the Acolyte. The exception to that is Qimir when he was fighting, the dialogue was garbage but his fight asthetic was cool. 

  • Qimir for sure, maybe a Jedi or two but I don’t think there would be sufficient for a new faction with how the show was review bombed. It would go down even worse than inquisitors when they were first released. Which is a shame as I am in the minority of liking the show. Not only do I not see it continue looks like it’s going to be skipped in game.

    You're right. It wasn't bad. It was even worse than Ep.8, or the Ewoks movies, or the christmas special or anything I can think of in the SW Universe. 🤪

    Yeah. Right. And please give us the skeleton kiddies also. But only as opponents. An make them really weak. So we can beat them up. To vent our frustration regarding these two disastrous shows. /s

  • TLDR: The show wasn’t great, but many of the characters were cool, and I wouldn’t mind seeing “the power of many” as long as they aren’t gamebreaking (and don’t counter JMK).

     

    I didn’t enjoy the Acolyte very much, but I will admit, I want to see Sol (he was cool, ngl, and the fact the dude learned English for the show is admirable), Plageius for sure, maybe Vernestra (a mechanic where she blames someone else and moves her damage and debuffs to others would be funny) Qimir, and probably the Twins and the Witches. I didn’t enjoy the show, and I didn’t love all the characters, but at the end of the day, I want more Star Wars. I feel they may be skipping Acolyte, as it wasn’t well received, but Skeleton Crew didn’t get lots of attention, and we have 33, so who knows what could come.

  • Current characters from the Acolyte I wouldn't mind seeing added to SWGOH are Kelnacca, Qimir (Sith), Vernestra Rwoh, and Darth Plagueis.
