Yeah but is your shard whale actually gud.

His GP is almost 2 million higher than yours. You decide... https://swgoh.gg/p/766112228/

GP has slightly more than 0 correlation to being good, maybe 1%

In your rush to be defensive, you must have missed the "You decide" part of my post. Sorry if I hurt your your feelings.

The thread was about JKL's viability - generally, only a whale or a F2P player who was very lucky at guessing (or had hoarded a LOT of crystals) would know this early. I was just sharing information. Do with what you will - which is apparently, be defensive about someone who spends on the game.

I'm not expecting him to be top tier, he seems like he could be a piece of a puzzle we dont have all the pieces for, but the early results are rarely promising.....

Shouldn’t he be top tier given the requirements ? Imho he should - but you are 100% right - could end up being like Jollee or Drevan - an additional character makes him better - I hope so!

New toon incoming:
Ghost Ben
Jedi, support, LS, Rebel
Basic (Luke, use the force!): Call any Luke to assist.
Special (you must go to the Dagobah system): Target Luke is removed from the game for one turn. When he returns, his stats are doubled (except for base speed), and he gains speed up until the end of the battle, which can’t be removed or prevented.
Unique (he was our only hope): Luke is always a Rebel, and his lead always applies to Rebels. If there is no Luke on your team, Ghost Ben fades away from the battle.
