Beautifully done graphics on the event, and terrific new character upgrades and graphical movements, but unfortunately it’s not quite the impact that JKR was. Even the very best of DR comps can’t always match a mediocre JKR comp. Thankfully, there’s not the 3-5 min slog of JKR v JKR for some, but there is an underwhelming defense (unfortunate). SiT is a bit worthless and only there for initial self-destruction (SM may be the better choice). If you can keep every toon in the match you’re doing better than most.Ultimately, the kit feels rushed and a bit of a piecemeal to counter JKR. And sadly, Finn destroys it, and likely there are some other non-meta comps that can, too. That’s okay, ultimately, but not what you’ve trained us to expect with meta defining changes.

Yup. Darth Revan sucks. With the limited Sith Empire toons we have, his team cannot beat JKR except on the most perfect rng. Not worth the investment if you made it IMO.

Ya my guild also is not having good success with him either. Even with sith marauder he is still not doing well. CG really screwed the pooch on this one. They really needed to add the no assist thing to not just DR but the whole team. You add that and now you’ve got a team that holds better against JKR. As it stands now tho, many are switching back to JKR.

Yup - Grievous, Darth Revan, all CG are doing is proving that they can’t tame the beast they created.JKR continues his reign as King of Arena, Darth Revan is a fun if unsatisfying sideshow.Will Malak be the next big disappointment, or the final piece of the puzzle?

Maybe try Darth Revan under another sith lead ? Like Darth Revan under Traya lead or under Palpatine lead ?

That won't change the defense problem. DR in a Traya squad is just a better Thrawn, nothing more. Will shine on offense, will die on def.

Valiant effort, but they failed to keep JKR from being meta as long as Traya was, as they stated they did not want. Darn shame, too.

On the bright side, running Evan in the Jedi Assault Battle is kinda fun.

Only the classic Finn Kombo works if your Poe or 3PO can outspeed the other Team. 3PO will be useless after the first Round.

The Zinn, 3PO, RT, Chewie an Han Team is completly shut down by HKs Zeta "Loyality to the Master" bcs 3PO wount gain TM annymore after his first "OMG".

He is GAR so he gains Protection up and its game over for the TM Train.

They didnt even need to change Finns Lead for this. -_-

Yeah, Im afraid you are right... JKR really did ruin many parts of the game, just because it had to be last year’s big cashgrab... Its very sad.
