Rock, Paper, Scissors...ehh

Do you have 300+ speed on at least 2 toons? That matters more in my arena than the team. Almost. I mean only DR and JKR are relevant. But the speed is more relevant between all of those teams.

Who said Padme was going to help balance arena? Galactic Republic got reworks for upcoming Clones rerelease, not to even out Arena.

This.

The dev team stated that they have an "end goal" of a more balanced arena and even that "may not be true rock, paper, scissors". This is likely to mean that we will see this play out over the next year or so, but still in the end not have as much diversity as we really want.

There aren’t any leaks about Kenobi, just speculation

Thanks. Hate when people try to pass their own baseless claims as fact. :|

There’s still a CLS/C3PO team in my Arenas top 10. He has “decent speed mods” —> 20+ speed secondaries with many 25+. If you run a trailing edge team like CLS or Padme you need EXCEPTIONAL mods.

The highest CLS team in my shard is at 37 this morning. There appear to br only two of them who can still break into the top 50 at all. The rest is all Revans and these days the Revans extend out beyond 200, pushing all other squad compositions lower as more of them gear up to unbeatable levels. So far I have resisted joining the collective but it can only be a matter of time because resistance is futile.

A: Nobody who matters ever said Padmé was going to "balance arena." Just like what happened with Grievous, the devs never said that; it was entirely player speculation. Pay attention to who's saying what if you want to avoid getting taken by surprise by stuff like this.

B: There are presumably more CW-era reworks coming, which means the team may not have reached its full potential yet.

SBC: Where does Padmé fit best in the game?
CGF: Padmé is a leader of the Galactic Republic squad and should be very competitive in PvP. Our goal is for her squad to sit alongside Darth Revan (without Malak) and Jedi Knight Revan squads in terms of power level and competitive viability.

So, devs pointed that Padme must be on same level as DRevan and Revan. In reallity, Padme not even close to them. Traya/Palpatine teams beat Padme with ease.

Palpatine can still beat DRevan without Malak too.

Gg/znute takes down jkr
Jkr/thrawn takes down drevan/malak
Cls, jtr, trio, gr - loads of other capable teams

Agree that jkr dominant meta followed by drevan dominant meta was not super healthy BUT counters are available (drevan/gmy for faster mirror matches / jkr w zzkru for those without drevan)
