High damage AOE characters

Phasma hits hard with advantage and crits often and is an awesome leader who can grant turn meter+advantage which generally procs her leader ability= extra turns and she can slow the entire other team which seems to hit 3 or more regularly. Leader or not she is a strong charcter with potential for good damage and shit loads of health+armour

Maybe when the cap is raised, and she improves, but ATM, I don't see her beating the top teams. You will know what I am talking about when you face teams filled with glass canons and Poe. And see for yourself that if you have the chance to proc the "extra turns " you were talking about.

Well my phasma led team took and held rank1 today
It was taken twice and I got it back from a team of poggle, Poe, ig88,ig86 and hk47

Phasma at 7* has a ton of health and armour and has more then enough opportunity to use her abilities

First of all, his team would be much better if he uses phasma or Dooku instead of Poggle. Droid teams are very bad at defense, I think we all know that. The AI has no idea whom to target. You said yourself that team can take your spot which means it is able to beat your phasma led team.

Phasma only works if the other toons of the team can dish out damage because phasma herself doesn't hit hard, yet she as a leader and a meter controller lacks the speed to protect her toons. That's the fatal flaw of this build. For example, if you were to face a team like this

Sid
QGJ
Tie pilot
Leia
Poe

It's very likely that the hitters on your team will be killed before phasma has a chance to control meters, you see? Even if you manage to take turn, you are forced to target Poe because Poe offers better protection for his squad than phasma.

I'm not saying phasma is a bad character. She in fact has many useful tools like you said. When put in the right situation, she can make a tremendous difference. For example I would take her over Poggle for that droid team. But i do believe her leadership skill is overblown in its effectiveness and many people are overlooking her obvious flaws.

But I get a whole more 5 attacks that I can use to remove Poe and my next largest threat.
Plus with dooku and daka I have very high chance at a stun. Ns it's not a fool proof team, they never are and no team can is inbeatable in the hands of the AI. Phasma is bad of defence bc her timing is all out. But in attack she is great imo
If I had qgj tie pilot and leia 6-7* and Poe I would use them
But they're all under 5* arm :(

you have Dooku and Daka and phasma, whom else is on your team?

Sid and lum

All are 7* except dooku who is 5 shards from 6*

I was lucky enough to pull Lando early on, and my team is essentially built around getting the most out of his AOE. With Sid leading and Phasma ensuring he gets his turn nice and quickly, the number of crits he gets out of that AOE is incredible. Regularly turns matches for me.

So I'll keep my fingers crossed that you pull him from a pack! Wish I had a way to get him to 5 stars

The only 2 4*'s I don't have are boba and lando :(

I believe if you have someone

Damn, didn't know you have such a bad ass Dooku. Mine is still 4*

You seem to have a lot of characters.

May I suggest you try these two teams if you have them

1 Sid 88 Jawa Poe phasma
2 HK 88 86 Poe phasma

I think with those two teams, you will love phasma even more.
