I am so confused with the Anakin "nerf" and his GR synergy.

I predict that more reworks or Galactic Republic characters will join her team, maybe just 1 and will make a big difference in her viability. Still though, I hope Padme provides a decent counter for me to use against Malak in Grand Arena or Territory Wars. Want to continue to use my Malak in arena for a long time since that team was such an investment.
