STAP is also critically not a Gungan.

Please read the Road Ahead again."Phantom Menace Episode 1 - Battle for Naboo RaidWhat better way to celebrate The Phantom Menace’s 25th Anniversary than with an iconic battle on the planet of Naboo! We are excited to give you all an early read-in and look at the next Raid and the direction we are looking to go while we build out our Episode 1 SWGOH adventure. You and your Guild will find yourselves in the middle of conflict, participating in the Battle for Naboo against waves of Battle Droids with no end in sight! Will you be able to sustain all that fire power? Gear up your Gungans who will give you your best chance of survival and maximum point potential! Our initial target date for this is around summertime, but we will keep you folks posted as we get closer to launch.Next - a word from the design lead for this raid!What has it been like working on the Raid?I enjoy making events with narrative opportunities, like the Territory Battle and the Jedi Knight Cal’s Hero Journey, so working on the Raid has been a lot of fun. We’re trying to really nail that feeling of nostalgia and excitement that comes with watching the Battle for Naboo – do you remember the first time you saw those battle droids unload from the transports?What are some characters/Factions that may be required?While the Raid is still in production and nothing is finalized, we are currently leaning towards subsets of characters found in these factions: Galactic Republic, Jedi, Separatists, and, of course, Gungans. In ‘Battle for Naboo’, the Gungans with Jar Jar Binks on their side will give you the best opportunity to be successful in the Raid. The Gungans will be featured as a faction inside the Battle for Naboo Raid, much like Jabba the Hutt was for the ‘Krayt Dragon Hunt’ and Leia Organa was for the Speeder Bike Pursuit Raid. When we get closer to Raid Launch, we will be sure to communicate with you the final details so you and your Guild can be prepared for action!"https://forums.galaxy-of-heroes.starwars.ea.com/discussion/268533/february-road-ahead-2024/p1?new=1

"Defense of Naboo" is the name of the Gungan Marquee Events.

Boss Nass was "Defense of Naboo 1"
Tar Pals was "Defense of Naboo 2"
and so on...
