Any insight on how good Starkiller is yet?
Seems pretty average overall. As a stand alone character he is above average; his basic hits really hard, and his «ultimate» is basically an «I win-button». All in all he plays like a weaker SEE, where the objective is to put together a squad that can help him survive long enough to pull down the Star destroyer.
But he doesn’t enable any new teams to excel it seems, he doesn’t add a new threat to the pool of squads. He needs very specific squads to even defeat non-GL squads, and he is most likely unable to defeat GL-squads. Part of the reason why he doesn’t appear to be at the power level his requirements entail could be that there isn’t a leader out there that brings the squad together. They all just rely on individual strengths, weak leader abilities like Old Ben and Barriss, and Starkiller’s unique giving bonuses if the composition is correct. With a proper leader ability I can see him work better in a squad.
As I see it, he is probably going to excel in GA once he has all three omicrons, but outside of that he just works as a cleanup for average squads.
