@Ultra care to provide the reasons why you think JML will be the best GL? I'm going for him so looking for some positive thoughts... because after reading through both kits a couple times, SEE seems like he was built specifically to counter JML.

I do understand that kits on paper vs how they interact in the wild can be different then initially perceived. Which is what I hope is the case here.

Efflux: 25% (min) ~45% (max) AOE TM reduction, -25% speed AOE, +15% TM Gain for team

JML can spam this attack on every second turn after his ultimate which is like an infinite loop at that point if you don't have a Galactic Legend of your own and given how fast GLs are

JML is also a taunting GL, just like GAS, its extremely difficult to bypass a tank with a taunt that cannot be dispelled, so in GAC or TW, it will be difficult to kill the sides, so supports are going to last a lot longer compared to GL Rey, SLKR, SEE

The other issue is the healing in the team, especially with JKR, you can't zerg this team. With Rey, you can at least 2 shot the team, same with SLKR, with JML, the team is almost always going to be decked out at max health and protection after every battle

Given how frequently JML taunts, and you can't easily bypass his taunt outside of AOE spamming, its also likely, JKR's savior will proc on JML so you essentially have to kill him twice

Appreciate your thoughts, well articulated! One issue I see from some of the things you point out is that Deceived Jedi units wont gain bonus tm, and with SEEs unique, I think that will be spreading very quickly.

Also, having Jolee would be awesome except that SEEs special prevents jedi from reviving that are killed by it. So while the revive potential is there I can see it becoming negligible if they can get to Jolee.

But you're right about all the tanks- that leaves a lot to be desired from a damage output standpoint. Guess it's still sort of a wait and see situation.
