The vast majority of people could only make two decent Resistance teams if they brought in droids to supplement the RJT team, or they went undersized.
The new situation is perhaps slightly worse, but not by much.
- You can now use R2 and C3PO with Rebels and still have a very good RJT squad.
- Almost nobody has Rose farmed and geared.
- Very few people have Holdo farmed and geared.
- That leaves RJT, BB8, Scav, Trooper, Finn, Poe, and Pilot.
Only Poe and Pilot lose their usefulness. And Pilot was never very good. From my perspective, the Finn change was mostly a Poe nerf. Finn is still quite useful, but Poe went from good to garbage. At least Poe has a good ship.
And if you do have all the Resistance geared up, the new Finn lead is still okay. It's no longer a Top 10 lead, but it's probably still in the top 25% or so. For comparison, I think it's better than the recently reworked Grievous lead. Another comparison, the Rebels have 12 leaders. Only CLS is clearly has a better leader ability - Wedge, Ackbar, and Jyn are at a similar level, and the others are pretty clearly worse.
Poe benefits the most from this change, he can really expose ppl and reduce TMs steadily now thanks to finn's new leadership.
