Is Fulcrum Ahsoka viable?
Been saving my shard shop credits in preparation for her appearance. I've seen a couple of posts saying that she doesn't have many uses, can anyone confirm this?

She's amazing in arena. You do need her zeta.

Depends on who you're fighting. I've had Rex, Empire, Chaze you name it teams smoke her. At the very highest levels, she is not close to OP in arena if you try to play D. On offense, sure, on a team like yours it can be quite useful, but she is easily silenced on D
Defense is a non-factor.

This isn't quite true. With my current team (Rex GK DN R2 Thrawn) I fall no farther than 25 or so, and even that is rare. When I ran ATF in my team (various combinations) I fell to 50. That's a huge difference, and makes your payout more difficult.
I agree defense isn't as important as offense in arena (mostly because the AI is ****), you do need to pay attention to it a little if you don't want to do a 2 hour arena run every day.
Yesterday I held 20th place, which is unheard of, and today I had fallen to 40-45 as usual. The reason you're falling is not because Ahsoka is bad, it's because there is a toon that is better on defense than her. The team you mentioned is easily in the current top 5 teams. Just because she isn't well suited in double/triple cleanse, it doesn't mean she is completely useless. People just don't explore enough. Once somebody finds out her most viable team and posts it, everyone is going to start spamming how op she is, just as it happens with the majority of toons.
I'm not saying she is useless, just saying that defense isn't a non-factor, as that dictates how you play your payout. If you're falling to 40-45 every day you aren't making a run at the top 5, but if you stay in the top 30, you can (leader board dependent, of course).
But, in trying to prove your point you prove just how balanced she is: she can only be considered "OP" in an appropriate team. By definition, that means she can never be OP, because she relies on others to be serviceable.
