Unfortunately the list of toons where that statement is true, is longer than a jawa is tall.

It's kind of a pointless ship... I see kylo unmask but no sf fighters

But why?

It's useful, and some of my guildmates are getting great use of it in TW and DSTB. However, it doesn't fit the current ship meta (Thrawn, TFP, FOTP, reaper, Vader, Biggs).

Basic: TL (when crit, which is roughly 40% including bonus)
AOE: 35% chance to remove 20% tm
Special: Ability block, ignore protection, random assist

Could be useful yeah, but if i put this in the front lineup, do i drop reaper? Biggs? Vader? Fotp? Tfp? If i can use 6 ships on the front lineup, this ship definitely will go in, but currently the ship meta is full and there is no place

I am neither using reaper nor Vader. Don't have the characters up.
Currently using Thrawn, Biggs, TFP, FOTP, Fives, Boba in the main squad. Maybe put fives out to get Kylo unmasked in?
And Boba out for the SF tie fighter. So I thought.

I"d drop boba to reinforce, fives has irresistible target lock. That's why. But i'm not a huge fan of umbaran either, because he spreads tm to enemy like a wildfire.
Also if you have sf tie but dont have reaper and vader, maybe you should use sf tie in the front lineup and unmask as reinforcement, because it's better to start the battle with as much target locks as possible

Thanks for the post.
Yea, and the umbaran doesn't use his special as ai. I like it as I hate it.
Currently I use Poe's ship, clone trooper, Rex and wedges ship as reinforcement. But in most rounds I only get Poe and/or Rex into the game. Rex's special and his tankiness helps a lot if you got a faster Thrawn but need a bit more time on a loosing edge.
Would put wedge and clone trooper out for Boba and Kylo unmasked then.
But one thing I like with Boba that he can mostly one shot the enemy's tfp with offensive up and one special. Because I don't have Vader it's really annoying to get through that dodging..

There’s one in my ship arena, my resident kraken uses it, 7* and pilot at g12 7* as his first reinforcement, under thrawn his aoe straight out the blocks is a massive kitten to your plans
