Upcoming Change to Darth Malak [MERGE]
@CG_SBCrumb -- can you please clarify the update? Is it that sith enemies only don't gain tm when inflicted with shock or as long as Malak is on the field? Additionally, how does this interact with hi...

The mind boggling part to me is that they didn't see this coming (or worse, they did and went this route anyway). The moment they revealed Revan's kit, many of us thought "wow, EP is arena viable again with all of those debuffs being thrown around."
What they should have done when DR was initially released was to modify EPs leadership ability to trigger only on debuffs inflicted by Sith and Empire allies. They're the only ones that get the benefit anyway and I can't think of a toon (outside of OG Kylo and GG..) that debuffs themselves or their allies to such an extent it would have a material impact on a match. EP is so effective because of the sheer number of debuffs being triggered by SIth Empire (minimally 25% TM increase per enemy turn). Everyone was already accustomed to running EP solely in those comps. It's thematically appropriate. Nobody would have blinked and only a slight few would have squinted.
If they were smart enough to have done it a few weeks prior to DR's kit reveal, it would have fueled speculation about the upcoming release and potentially generated hype / revenue as the community went wild with theories.
Instead, Darth Revan gets released into the wild. Darth Gear Wall gets his surprise event. And THEN it becomes an issue.
Stop playing checkers.
