To be fair, the only reason people will be up in arms is cause of the thousands of people who paid hundreds of dollars for him. if Revan came out later and was more f2p friendly, there would be less backlash.
But seeing a three star G8 be on a team that beat him rather easily after only 3weeks is like... really funny to me. Because I didn't buy Revan and I won't ever spend that much ever on a toon just to "win" more in arena.
(Not that I get paying that much anyway just to win arena, cause the amount of crystals people spent.. y'know, 300-400 dollars worth, is like winning 1st place for months....)
