People judged the empire pass too quickly.

@Skykraker I'm sorry but your post is an embarrassment. Ofc every shard is different what rock have you been hiding under. You obviously pay no attention to overall arena trends and I can't comment on the strength of your shard but I can surmise it must be fairly boring and backward if you haven't seen anyone using a Wedge lead in 12 months.

@Olddumper This is interesting, those Thrawn teams had already been flagged up by a guildmate and it definitely has massive potential. What @Skykraker fails to realise is that most developed shards have their own chats where people discuss the finer points of the team comps and how they fare on defence. My guildmate gets to talk to people that have faced his team who tell him it is infinitely harder than his triple cleanse or Rebel/Fatz comps etc etc.

Only caveat is that it's new. Often new comps gain traction in the short term because they may require minor adjustments to tactics or mods to deal with. My resources have taken a real bashing recently but I for one will be at least putting a little more effort into Empire.

I think skykraker know about the level of testing and collusion that goes on. What I don't think he knows about are the poor squads and delusion. So many squads have become what I call "refresh hero's" they think they're squad is amazing because they can take 1st climbing from the 30's each day, just because they have a heal heavy team the AI doesn't know what to do with. Then when the switch to a squad like empire they go "my shard is too to tough to hold on D". We need to run op Chaze on my shard or your toast. The truth is they need to run Chaze because their mods are poor and they need healing counter attackers. It has nothing to do with the fact their shard was started January 2016.
