Good/Bad time to work on Bounty Hunters?

I had been planning on working on my BH soon-ish, and the plan had been: Boba Tea (L), Cad Bane (even though he sucks, because I love him), Greedo, weak 3-star Embo (because he's cool), and Zam Wessel (even though I can't find her anywhere, ever).

But thennnn whaaaaaaaaaaaaa??? I discover that:
Aurra Sing is coming out.
Cad Bane is getting a rework.

And oh yeah, Bossk is actually farmable now.

So plan #2 was weak, 3-star Embo (L), because that looks better that Boba, Cad Bane (sweet! He won't suck anymore!) Greedo, weak 3-star Bossk (hey, at least he's farmable), and Boba.

But now I'm lost. Is weak, 3-star Aurra Sing better than one of these guys? And is Zam worth keeping over one of them, too?

My team is basically going to be half 3-star pay-to-play characters, yeah? I don't know what to do and who is the best combination now! I don't mind being 'behind the trend' and using characters I'm already done with (IG-88, Boba Fett, Cad Bane) instead of the 'cool new' (but impossible-to-level) ones.

What's your call, community? What's my best team of Bounty Hunters as we transition to a new world full of them?

  • My brother runs a 4-zeta BH team and can climb up to 300ish but in the time it takes to sleep he's down in the 600-700's. So they seem to fall harder than most. zzBossk lead, zBoba, zGreedo, Dengar, 88.
  • I personally think the Boba TD team is better in TW if your team is fast enough and modded for potency. I don't think Ive ever seen a Bossk zeta team win more than 3 or 4.

    BH get an obscene TW bonus, so I am not talking about arena.



    Also Bossk works fine at 3*. Embo will still do a lot of damage at 3* but will need his anti-crit zeta because he is paper thin.
  • Keep in mind in tw people will burn lower level squads to pick away at a team so with out seeing the teams they used it really can’t be counted but everyone has good points. As with all teams theirs good and bad.

    Yes, but that is the whole point of TW. Burn the other teams squads. If they waste more than one squad on one of yours you are ahead. Its one more weak squad they can't spend to take out another teams leader or keystone character. Teams that can eat multiple low level squads are valuable. Phoenix is a perfect example. They are not a super strong team but you usually can't throw a trash team at them either because they have good synergy.
  • But a lot of people end up with squads less than 5 and will try and use those so those aren’t necessarily true defense just burning what you have left over.
