I just want to chime in that I always appreciate and applaud @Preemo_Magin and his Poe rants. They are over the top, but he hits on all the right points. Poe was nerfed from every single angle. People were most upset about his speed and turn meter reduction...so how about we leave those changes and at least give him back his health, expose and tenacity. Or two of those three. Please? Poe still has a place on a roster with Qui-Gon leadership, but QGJ is the real must-have character now, and any success the droid teams are having post-patch is due to three factors: (1) not everyone has fully farmed up their speed teams yet, (2) not everyone has recognized the significance of the change yet, and (3) AI is dumb as mud and will sometimes have QGJ, Geo Soldier, Dooku and Rey go after Poggle and HK instead of the IGs, so on offense your arena team can still win.
I'm sad about the droids, but I'm most sad about the Resistance team. I never got to play with a leveled-up Resistance team, and removing Poe's expose and tenacity is going to hurt them a lot since expose is their feature skill and two or three of them are squishy.
