Disappointment

Yeah, but Phoenix also gets Palps, are a C-team on defence, and Ezra kind of has a place on some JKR teams.

"Thrawn's overrated"

Good one.

You should have gone for Padme so that you wouldn't need to use Clones and fail against her.

Good one.

I've seen him listed in the same category (Grandmaster) as Darth Revan, Jedi Knight Revan and Malak. There is no way in any Universe that Thrawn is in the same league as these 3. Nice try.

His lead is questionable, his damage dealing is medium, he's squishy, and if you have him modded very fast as many players do, his Fracture (his one very useful & reliable feature) won't last that long.

And don't even get me laughing about Phoenix. Farming them is like most guys **** their beer money away on Coors Light. They don't even get used after a certain point.

My advice: Go straight for the Revans

I would put him up there with the characters you mentioned. Also, apart from some Malak solos on GA, trying plugging one of those guys into random teams and see how they do, they aren't as great without their supporting cast. I'd argue Thrawn has far more utility.

Stole mine.

I'll take my clones (even without Shaak Ti!!!??) against your best Thrawn Empire team all day long. Ol' Thrawny won't even see a turn!
???"Dear Lord!" ??

That explains why you think thrawn is bad, you think he leads the teams he is best on lol

Thrawn is an immense toon and his fracture alongside TM swap / cleanse / protection regen special makes him a must in every roster.

Maybe yours would be better if you stuck on a zeta and have him more than +90 speed?

His base speed is 150+

He means the mods you have only add 90 speed. You need to be aiming for 120+ as a minimum I reckon. 90 is heartbreaking.

You had me up until "Thrawn's overrated." He's one of the best characters in the game and helps in so many ways. I do however agree with you that Phoenix isn't the absolute best way to go when you start. The path is still viable, but now there are plenty of other paths you can take that arguably are way better in the long run.

Hahahahahahaha!!!!!

Try Thrawn (mod him properly first) , DR and JKR as a fifth in each of these teams:
CLS rebels
Traya lead sith
EP empire
JTR Resistance
First Order
and for the fun of it, Ewoks.

Let me know which is the most useful.

Heck, toss him into a Darth revan team and watch him make up for a slower BSF in a mirror. Works wonders

I've had Thrawn around 300 before (then used those mods elsewhere). He's a good character on his own, but farming Phoenix to get him when you could farm better characters to get the superior Revans & Malak, makes no sense to me unless you don't care about getting crushed & just want to farm for sentiment.

Part of the issue is thinking about farming order in the mindset of a veteran player. Sure, phoenix are not great and the Revans are elite teams, but for a new player Phoenix leads you to so many things (including the single best plug and play character in the game):

2 legendaries that can form a core of a solid B level squad(EP and thrawn)
2/5 of a legendary who is key to a Revan squad (gmy)
A solid capital ship for early fleet arena
The core of a very good fleet meta lineup (phx ships and other rebels used for Chimera)

That is a solid list of valuable outcomes from phoenix, which while no longer the only good option for starting, is still the best imo
