Will droids get some love soon?

So I invested in a droid team and it paid off very well so far, I was able to always be top10 and sometimes even #1 when the ranking favours me. But I'm starting to lag behind. All those new character...

Imho, there are several factions that could use a bump in "viability". Also, imho, droids are NOT one of them.

First reason has to do with arena. Up until about 2 months ago (when Zetas came out), droids could fairly easily climb to the top of almost any arena shard. This had been the case virtually since launch - Poe+droid speed meta, droids +Poggle +GS, etc. Then they introduced JE and B2 became f2p. Basically, droids have been a viable top arena faction for over a year. There are many other factions and ttoons that have never come close.

Also, droids are still extremely useful in other areas of the game. Phase 2 HAAT is owned by droid teams. My droid team can torch several hard nodes of GW without breaking a sweat.

TL;DR Droids have been virtually meta-proof since launch. Only faction that has been. I'm okay with them fading for a bit and letting other factions step into the limelight.

Yes they always been viable but not meta. They always been able to climb up rank, but loose it all overnight. They always been easy to defeat on offense. So what's the point? Yes they should have a zeta and become viable again.
