The tenacity up from Rex, and Chirrut now becomes a very significant disadvantage. Rebels who debuff under Luke will be giving TM like crazy. Chirrut less so, because he only gives tenacity up if no debuffs were removed. So this leader ability seems solidly aimed at countering Rex. And I believe it will.
Secondly, AoE characters will have to think twice about using that ability. Luke, Fulcrum, Wedge, Biggs, R2, and potentially Leia all have very nasty damage or debuffs on basics. Now the AoE speed meta is past, but the most used AoE character at the moment is Nihilus. His AoE could get either him, or his taunted killed against a Luke team.
So I think that all current meta teams will hang around, but we will not only see some new teams with commander Luke, but some other new teams meant to deal with him.
This is exactly what I was thinking. CLS won't immediately change the meta, but he will add a fourth leader to the current rock paper scissors. I'm hoping Luke's anti-tenacity up lead results in less CHaze in the arena.
I think Scariff Rebel Pathfinder could be a secret weapon, giving AOE debuffs and 15% TM to everyone whenever he counter. Throw in his never ending revive and possibly juggling taunts with Old Ben or STH and thats an annoying team to fight. Add Cassian for DPS and AOE debuffs that don't trigger, and your favorite DPS toon, maybe Biggs or Fulcrum, and that's a serious contender.
I'm willing to bet Leia's rework goes great with Luke as well. Here we go!
