Advice for a CLS Arena team.
Hello all. Up to this point I have not had much luck using CLS in my December 2015 shard Arena, mostly because I didn't have the proper supporting characters up to speed. I unlocked General Kenobi...

Depends on your top twenty.
Here are some things to look for:
a) DN. If people are running DN under CLS and have the GKs and R2s to keep him safe, you want to go straight DPS. Run a CLS lead and play to strengths (i.e. offense boost, counter chance, TM gain). For this you need hard hitting rebels such as zRHan and Leia to fill the spots of your control toons like DN and Thrawn. The burst damage burns through tanks and shortens battles, which means less opportunities to get annihilate in for the opponent.
b) zBarriss. If people are running zBarriss under GK, then you need DN and Thrawn to control the flow of battle. The key is to get annihilate in as often as possible and keep the enemy team from annihilating you. This team eats crits, so toons like RHan and Leia are less useful.
c) RHan and Leia. If the enemy is relying on heavy crits and straight DPS to take out your toons quickly, switch to a GK lead with zBarriss. She will eat up the damage and protect toons like Thrawn and DN who will systematically take out key toons on the enemy team.
It really just depends on what kind of CLS teams everyone is running. Every shard is different.
