Snowtrooper viable in arena?

Snow is a great toon IMO...the problem is, with the advent of the CLS counter meta his AOE becomes a liability.

With GK and crit immunity around and CLS counter mechanic SnT doesn't work or gets owned on his aoe which is his thing, after CLS disappears he might be somewhat usable in arena but I don't see GK and CLS going anywhere soon, sadly

CLS counter meta alone would say no.

GK crit immunity meta alone would say no.

The rebel > empire meta alone would say no.

So the answer is no. He is not viable.

For me he is a must have in Arena. I run a Imperial Trooper squad. He is my hardest hitter and his ability block is very good. I have him at gear 12 with a Multi tool piece on him. Trust me he is very viable. My Arena rank is 58.

Cool. What's your team?
