What do you guys think about First Order Stormtrooper? He seems to have some good abilities like getting turn meter advantages and giving enemies slow speed. Also gives out a great counter as well. What do you guys think about him? Should I level him up past 3 stars?

He's a good character if you can grind him, but it will take you forever. If you don't want to spend months on him, Fives provides the same counter and speed down combination.

It seems like FOST works even better with Plasma also. Who would you recommend with Fives?

He synergizes with Rex and Plo Koon, but neither of those characters is very good, so you may want to avoid them. If you plug Fives into an otherwise fast squad, his speed down attack can allow your fast characters to absolutely annihilate a GW opponent.

Yea I dont have Plo Koon or Rex. Maybe a plasma with a turn meter advantage with a Han might make a good team.

@Qeltar what do you think? whats your opinion?

Thanks for asking. My opinion: Baby Fives with lower counter chance, less chance to inflict speed down, and slower speed. Unique ability far inferior to that of Fives. On top of that, FO teams took a major hit in last week's update, and to cap it off, he's only farmable on 2 hard nodes. Pass...

What exactly did the update do to FO teams? Not trying to be belligerent or anything, just curious since I run Phasma, Kylo, and FOO in my main squad.

In rough order of importance:
1. FO teams were indirectly nerfed by all the other factions having speed leaders apply in the first round when they do not have one.
2. Phasma's bug that allowed her leader ability to proc on non-attacks such as her own and FOO's was fixed.
3. Yoda has the potential to turn Kylo from a serious asset to a serious liability (see the various images of what happens when Retribution gets stolen).
4. Yoda can also negate Phasma's Fusillade (though not usually both this and the Kylo move).

Did nothing to them. That is the problem, other teams for their speed leadership fixed and now FOO are slower by comparison
