KRU as the Arena Team Tank?

I really feel like unmasked has alot of potential, i'm currently farming/gearing him. Haven't been able to test him in arena though, still 5* g8 at the moment.

Speed over proct, easily. KRU wants to go as often as possible to get off the 2 turn stuns.

I got him to 204 speed but I don't think it's going to cut it in my arena shards.

I use him in my Palp team with ShT as 2nd tank. Palp, Vader, Thrawn, ShT, KRU(no zeta on unique). He's gr 12 with 218 speed. His kit combines well with Palp led teams since he also stuns, removes buffs on enemy, inflicts debuffs also when countering (tenacity down), so can potentially gives TM to the empire toons.
When he's hit, he gains Advantage, and in a stun team like that, his special hits hard (20-30k, not modded for CD).

Mines at 7* gear 9. Used him in a couple arena battles just to get a feel but he's way under geared and slow. I'm in the top 30 and most teams im facing have their minimum speed toon around 220. All three battles the AI went right after him first and he spent the majority of the time stunned. I am hoping to take advantage of his special with R2 and Hans stun ability as well.

At the moment in arena, he's working better as tank as a leader. His leader ability is pretty cool but not enough to face Rey's teams and Palp. He's the 2nd tank in my team, and tonight, I'll mod him with CC/CD to have this 216% CD because in my team where he's the only FO, he'll get advantage very often, and combined to Palpatine's stun, he can be interesting imo.

I use him as my second tank with Rex lead, MT, Wampa, GK.
I have his unique zetaed and he's g12. Modded for speed and protection. Running at 223 speed and 91k combined health/protection.

He does his job well, trading taunts back and forth with GK so that my cannons can fire. His stun is like a dispellable version of fracture, it works well when used early. I really couldn't be happier with his performance.

That is how i want to use him, but with Shore instead of GK.

Thats funny, I'm working on my ShT to take GK's place. Although the GK group attack is very nice with Wampa and MT, I think that ShT's heal will make up for it

I run him as a tank with my DN lead sith team because I'm far too low a level to get Sith Trooper. While he doesn't get the health steal bonus from DN's lead (or any of the other benefits), his two separate taunts and self-heal really help to keep the damage off of the rather squishy group of sith I have and keeps him alive long enough to finish the match.

Just a side note on KRU...does anybody miss more than he does? I swear, he only seems to land half of his attacks.
