Shoretrooper or Baze?

Looking to farm either Shoretrooper or Baze from the shipment store. I run a rebel team but also have a workable emp team that I could gear up relatively easily.

Who would you rather have as a standalone tank (ignoring squad synergies)?

Who would you rather have with squad synergies and why?
  • Shore works great against rebel teams with his crit immunity but as a stand alone tank id say probably baze with his counters and dispell would probably put him ahead in anything except an empire team.
  • I keep seeing the Shoretrooper popping up in the shipments 2-3 times a day. I'm almost tempted to fork over the crystals to get him for my Empire team.
  • I think Baze has a better kit. Shore's crit immunity is nice but with TFP/B2 everywhere applying buff immunity/dispel it's kinda worthless I think.
  • I like Baze's slow down and AoE attack. I've got a higher powered ST and I don't really use him in arena anymore. He is valuable in GW and DS battles.

    For an empire team, I run: EP(l), DV, Boba, Biggs and B2 unless the other team doesn't run chaze or B2. Then I might use shore.
  • Never thought about how buff immunity would dampen Shore's usefulness.. thanks for the tips!
  • If I could go back in time, I'd take Baze from the shard shop. I invested in Shoretrooper. He's only good for the first 20 seconds or till the enemy's B2 takes his turn. Then he's a waste of space. Oh he'll slow down the opposition under a Vader zeta. That's my team.
