My Cassian's u-wing never counters. Does yours?

I realized the other day that I've never seen it counter. So I've since tried to play at 1x speed, keeping an eye out for stealth and daze, and I've found that it truly never counters.

After a bit of googling, I see that it's a common problem. However there are also people who say that their u-wing counters frequently. To complicate matters further, some people claim that their u-wing counters, but much less than the 30%/60% that's stated in the ability description.

Here are a couple of threads:

https://www.reddit.com/r/SWGalaxyOfHeroes/comments/8uddzv/have_you_ever_seen_cassians_uwing_counterattack/

I also found a bug report, where EA says they've tested it and found that it does counter:

Anyway, I only use mine as reinforcement. Perhaps Cassian's u-wing counters when placed in the starting lineup, but doesn't when used as reinforcement

So to anyone who's using Cassian's u-wing, I'm curious to hear whether your ship counters as expected, and whether you're using it in the starting lineup, or as reinforcement.

  • I looked this up because mine never counters and that’s how I found this thread. It’s very important to his survivability with my Ackbar lead. Also use off bench.
  • If I recall correctly this does not only affect Cassian but also other ships' abilites when used as reinforcement. Like ITF TM boost for the capitol ship on dodges is not working when ITF is being reinforced, but works fine when put in the starting line up.
