    **** this is good. But I can already tell she will also work well with LV.


    I don't think she'll make that much difference there. There are already a lot of characters that work well with LV. She's going to pull offense, CC & CD from everyone else on a LV team. What she adds to a LV team is far less than what she adds to an EP/Vader team.

    if its not meant to be the lightsaber, what is making the yellow?

    Those Specials are Zetas? She looks good, especially with EP, but… only 1 turn of debuffs on that first special?

    But shes a good UFU for non-maul owners to fill the gap. We will have to see. But I can see her getting used for the tags.

    Pretty sure she is downward kicking then using the lightsaber.


    Yeah, she turns off the light saber for the jump and kick (safety first, people) then reignites it for the strike.
