CT-5555s post update

I'm wondering if it is still worth it to give 5555s a spot on my arena team after his nerf. Current team is: ST Han (L), RG, 5555s, Rey, QGJ.

Should I sub someone else in for 5s? My options would be Phasma, Daka, Yoda, Poggle, Ackbar, Dooku or Tano.

It was a clear nerf as his old action matched the description exactly. I lost a bunch with fives gear ix and omega after the nerf. I subbed in gear ix gs. Fives goes back yo bench warmer now.

I am because it was a major nerf. fives was already marginal on damage. This put him too far down for me to stay top 10.

He didn't get a NERF.. he was fixed. ALL they did was make the ability work as it should .. NOT a nerf.. its barely noticeable you attack first time to apply speed down and you get 2 turns to exploit it... instead of 3.. don't see a problem since it was DESIGNED to work that way.

No you LOST because RNG, one player does not lose a match.. you can blame everything but yourself, won't change the FACT that YOU lost.

You need the bench warmer, since you lost, so sit down.. and learn something.

Yea lets blame a mechanic on an entire round and lets pin our hopes on a lousy 200 pts of damage.

If you lose because of one attack you don't deserve the top 10 spot to begin with (if you had it at all.. which I doubt)

So everyone is benching Fives because he doesn't get to double attack on enemies that aren't already Speed Down'd?

Apparently people just look at one aspect and not the WHOLE benefit.. Fives counters that's where he shines.. but no people have to complain about is BASIC attack instead of his unique ability..

Also one more thing to add to the fire..

LvL 8: Multiattack against targets suffering Speed Down

At lvl 8 Ability he gains multiple attacks.. so he loses 1 attack before speed down then he gains more when he gets to lvl 8 on basic attack.

Not only is 5555's not getting benched he is my Ace pitcher

Currently ranked 7 on an early december leaderboard.

It is obvious in this game , that a character can not do 2 actions simultaneously - damage + buf or damage +debuff. It may seem like 1 action , but it always been 2 actions in a row - it was time when characters were first doing the damage and then doing the buff/debuff like Qui jumping on Savage with his dispell atack - first the hit was counted so savage gained offence, then qui dispel was counted and Qui removed offence. Then they "fixed"it for all characters - now they first apply the buff/debuff and do the damage afterwards. So now the situation is if Qui jump on savage, who have offence up already - first qui dispels the offence, then he do the damage and savage regains the offence. I would dare to say Fives was working as intended until today - he first did his debuff /speed down/ then he did his damage with basic atack and because it was damage on slowed enemy , it multiatacked .... They changed this again for Fives only ? So it is not bug fix , otherwise they should change again the "bug"when qui atacks savage who have offence and do not removes it .... it is intentional nerf of Fives only.
