Should JTR meta counter be allowed to stand?

Have just had my well modded JKR lead GML team beaten by a very poorly modded JTR, RAID HAN, CHEW 3P0, RT team... whilst I do not mind the ingenuity to this counter and can quite happily switch back to leaving REY on defense, it does seem a bit pointless in my having invested money and well hoarded resources to get JML as early as I did.There just seems to be no advantage to doing this anymore.
I am not going to call for a buff or nerf or anything like that,but I would hope that the devs will take a look at these situations going forward and try to bring back an advantage to those who are willing to invest the time and money in getting one

    For constistancy they should do something. Like when palp dominate dr malak, or gas with slkr.

    Just sayin.


    But there are non GL counters to both Rey and SLKR too.

    Didn't mention invested anywhere.

    What's your answer then? Only another GL should be able to counter?


    The issue isn't counter imo. The issue is loop.

    Yes, counters that require specific modding, player skill and certain high end characters.
    You know full well that this counter is not in the same ball park as those. The similar easy cheesy counters that we had for SLKR were taken away from the community. I wonder if the same will be done here.
    By the by though.... I would just like to know that my investment will he worthwhile in the future


    But they were never actually taken away. Gas lead/Rex/Chewie have been able to even 3 man SLKR for a long time now. And then there is this, which doesn't even use a legendary character.

    So should they take the Vader counter to GL Rey away or the JKR/JKL counter for Kylo away? I think this is fine, we need non GL counters and that JTR team is still a heavy gear investment team if you want it to work.

    Yeah like I said I have trash mods on Resistance toons and didn't need to switch and still won

    Also love how this gets moved to Arena and Character strategy when it fits way more in General Discussion, yet things like Does SEE need a buff stays in General Discussion.

    This isn't strategy, it's don't change mods, expose everyone and win. The title was brought up on discussion if it should be changed.


    How on Earth do you not see how a thread discussing counters to GL teams belongs in Arena and Character Strategy? Discussion of counters always belongs in Character Strategy, and a complaint about a kit needing a buff is debatable.

    Like others said before, f2p/no-GL counters are not the problem, just the opposite: they are highly appreciated if they are reasonable! Such as those counters that need high end characters from previous metas, very good modding etc. and even then, there's usually quite a bit rng involved.
    But the JTR team which is talked about here has appeared in my arena shard, too, and it's even cheaper than the Fives cheese against SLKR that made him get buffed twice... and people who go for Rey instead of JML will get the extra cheap counter just along the way, without any extra effort.

    How do they change it though? Whose kit do they nerf, or buff?
