It would be nice if they would stop making toons so complex, get a headache reading through her abilities. Like this does this except when it does that and then it does that when this happens and it also does this and this and that.
I prefer this does this and that's all it needs to do cuz it's a solid move.
Her abilities are easy:
1) Hit. Sometimes you hit hard, sometimes you hit REAL hard.
2) Cleanse BB-8 and give it Foresight, triple attack with it and another resistance ally.
3) Cleanse an enemy, reduce their TM by 50-100%, gain 75% TM.
Leader: Not Finn, doesn't matter.
Unique 1: Go very fast, cleanse yourself sometimes.
Unique 2: Gain buffs, heal sometimes.
It's #2 that everyone should make everyone look like a Tex Avery character right now. Resistance gets to have the Finn/Poe/Trooper expose battery AND gets to have its own Biggs and Wedge.

Good, you get how good Rey's potential with resistance could be, despite forcing the best zeta ability in game to the side if using JTR as lead.
We did some theory crafting in the guild last night and think that you can likely eliminate finn from a full resistance squad with JTR lead. Final comp we came up with was zzJTR (leader, unique 2), Poe, Res Trooper, zzR2, BB8. Boosted by R2's two zeta's and the rey leader ability, shouldn't have trouble spreading expose with Poe's taunt and the 70% chance on any crits except against T-Up.
You heard it hear first (didn't watch game changer vids): The key to unlocking rey's leader potential is all on res trooper's TM gain on expose.
He could possibly get multiple free turns if he lands his expose on basic and gets the rey expose on crit together, triggering 110% TM through his unique.If you can setup the perma heal block on anything with a zBarris or chirrut present, CLS, or really any tank, then start feeding RT turn meter, with good RNG he could burn a single toon down before anyone else gets a turn. Then you have R2 aoe crits and Poe's exposes possibly resetting RT up again for a huge burn.
BB8 and rey will feed well off one another and Secret Intel will be absolutely vital to get her CD's down without zFinn lead although she does appear to have a lot of TM gain built into her own unique. This is assuming JTR is the priority target for fracture or stun (though I would do R2 or RT in this comp). It's a trade off but one that I think has more arena potential than full Res with zFinn despite how good they are.
So not CLS OP where is just OP on any team, but JTR is certainly very powerful if utilized properly in a resistance squad and elevates them to top 10 status IMO.
