Thrawn is doing serious work in arena. The 3 teams on my shard that added him are holding much better. 2 are empire heavy squads. His AI is actually not bad at all especially if you have him modded correctly. I've made it to payout each of the last 4 days without using a battle to stay top 5 at the start of my payout hour. This is with a g9 Thrawn. I think we are in for a round 2 of bring back Palp threads except this time it's Thrawn.

Interesting, what are the 3 teams?

Hard to call it an empire pass when you also released a full rebels squad + and a legendary rebels character alongside it.

We got, what? A new legendary empire and a meh rework of tarkin?

People judged the empire pass too quickly.

full rebel squad (a.k.a. Phoenix) was BEFORE the pass.

Phoenix didn't come out in close proximity to gar Saxon and company? If I remember correctly they came out afterwards. Even still we got one viable character. Yay....

Looking forward to it. When you say they do well, what do you mean? Are they dropping less than then triple cleanse and maul teams? I find that no matter which team I use, I typically drop from 1st to about 15th over 24 hours. If empire is dropping around the same, there isn't much incentive to train switch squads.

I posted them. They stay in the top 30 I'd say consistently. Maul died completely on my shard. Only 1 in the top 50.
Edit it was mainly Tarkin lead.

I think you will find it subjective to your shard/leaderboard. Im on the September 2015 shard and those that are running thrawn can punch up into top 10 just like most teams on offense. On defense those same teams still get dropped anywhere down into the 50s.
