Leia strategy

I'm gonna use Leia soon in arena. Never used her so far so i would like opinion from someone with experience.
On offense:
What is my first move with Leia? Stealth immediately or start damaging? Stealth will give Leia buffs, but it's one empty move. Also her basic can buff allies.
On defense:
Is it good to omega her stealth? AI will use it immediately and she will have more "pass" turns.

    The real trick is HRS. He makes a Huge difference


    I have all of these characters, and run Ackbar (L), Leia, STH, Rey, Old Ben.

    Why do you prefer RG over STH? I just subbed out HRS for Leia. I am wondering if:

    Ackbar (L), Leia, Rey, STH, HRS
    or
    Ackbar (L), Leia, Rey, HRS, RG
    or
    what I currently run is better.

    With AA lead, I prefer just Leia because more of the leadership Rebel extra attacks will be her. For example, AA, Leia, Rey, RG, Phasma.

    If you're only running one tank, I do not like STHan with AA lead. STHan has 126 speed, +25 from AA. QGJ has 145 speed if not leader. Therefore (ignoring HRS and other TM abilities), you will start with Leia, then Rey (gains Foresight), then STHan taunts, then enemy QGJ attacks. So, QGJ will dispel your STHan every time, and STHan is basically useless. IMO Han is better without AA lead (either with Phasma or preferably with OB1/RG), where QGJ's first turn is usually a dispel on Rey's Foresight. OB1 is particularly nice because of QGJ misses his dispel...
  • My current arena team is awful meta which I'm bored of. I'm farming a future arena team which will be:
    AA (L)
    Leia
    HRSc
    St Han
    RG/Lando/Rey

    I'd like to go full Rebel but I'm not sure if it will hold up

    How is HRS more important than you would think? I am rather late to this but HRS seems pretty bland? And you're meaning scout not soldier?


    HRS with full Omega has 40% chance to give everyone 25 % TM and 55 % chance to stun. He also goes before Rey under AA
  • I've been running HRSc in GW and I love him. I also got my highest raid score using him. I don't have Rey i might add.

    The thing is, you either run,
    AA + Leia + Non-Rebels

    Or you run AA + Leia + All rebels

    You either go all out or not at all. If you're going to miss out on the Leia assist them you might as well make it worthwhile by throwing in any of HRS, Lando, Luke or StHan. Just my opinion of course
