@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 his Jaws of Life zeta? Now, if the other side has Malak, can he still gain the bonus turn?
Edit: Also, can you please clarify if that is the level 1 text for the unique, or are you removing all the other stuff from it?
CG: Let's come up with a character (DR) that will break the stale JKR meta and bring more diversity to arenas. Also CG: Let's nerf EP lead and go back to our old boring metas....

Absolutely! This is the absolute least they can do.

They key phrase in this sentence: "... so that it performs closer to what we initially intended:"
What was the initial intent and how does the prevention of TM gain by Sith align with that? A deterministic taunt by a character classified as a tank seems intentional. A passive unique that manipulates TM for a specific faction seems....like a nerf. Forgive me for being conspiratorial, but it's not very difficult to make 25% play like 90% - "hey, that's RNG..."
Full disclosure - I have Malak. I didn't pay for him. He's not ready yet, but he will be in time. I'll still be able to climb. This seems entirely unnecessary and is particularly odd given the level of ill will they've engendered with this particular release structure. Our highly competitive guild already had one rage quit this week. Is it only a matter of time until behavior like this causes the more deliberate among us to come to a similar, yet less fiery conclusion?
^^^^^ All of this. Dre & Malak were designed to counter Jedi. How do Sith magically come into the equation??? Just say that you intended for Dre/Malak to be the only team viable in arena, dont say that Malak's buggy or not wai.
Does this also mean Malak no longer will taunt after a fear also? How does this make him a reliable taunting tank? Really hoping you just made a mistake by posting the abilities level 1 description instead of final. You could’ve just showed the change being the no bonus Tm thing... which unintentionally(or maybe not?) is screwing up sass.
