Arena Team farming strategy- Level 72
I've been running Phoenix for some time with great success, but I'm working on a transition into a more viable future arena team. https://swgoh.gg/u/jonesk/ My initial thought was Wigs, STH, Ezra, ...

To be honest the other teams available to you are not going to better than Phoenix. Until/unless you transition to one of the other main teams like JTR, Nightsisters, or CLS I don’t think you’re going to do better than your Phoenix squad. I would suggest planning out one of the few other stronger teams and working towards them instead. You could put together an Empire team but from what I’ve read even with the rework they aren’t reliable beating teams like the JTR team. Maybe that will change with additional updates and new characters but at this very moment I don’t think an Empire team is going to be a huge upgrade over making your Phoenix team stronger.
I’m in a similar boat except I run a FO team with KRU, FOTP, FOO, FOST, and Kylo, but I’m getting everything prepared for JTR as my next team. For newer players like us it’s all about getting the characters we need to get the legendary characters like Palpatine, BB8; R2, Thrawn, CLS, and JTR and then also being in a good guild to eventually get Kenobi and Raid Han.
Having said that, you need a fairly strong Empire team for R2 anyways so you should be farming them anyways and if you want to try them out in arena you can kill two birds with one stone. I just have a feeling by the time you get them to the point where they might take over for your Phoenix team you’re going to want to transition to something else like CLS or JTR.
As far as the Biggs/Wedge/Lando team goes I think they are basically equivalent to Phoenix, not an upgrade. I can tell you with my FO team I have a much easier time beating the Biggs/Wedge teams than I do the Phoenix teams.
For reference I’m top 20 arena, started the last week of November and I’m level 79. Given your level we’re probably in fairly similar shards.
