"Stunning team" update
I've mentioned in the past that I was working on a team based mostly on stunning, along with assists and some counters. It has taken several weeks for me to get the pieces together. It's still not ent...

So I am now WELL out of the meta with this team. I have not changed it aside from leveling up, because I am stockpiling credits ahead of the upcoming update and only farming characters in places I need to spend energy to get XP.
Because of this I lose a lot to the Poe and Poggle teams that are everywhere. However, this makes it extra fun when I do win.
This is very much a "comeback kid" sort of team. I just fought a team with Poe, Poggle, Kylo, Sid and Lumi, quite nasty. I was using Sid myself this time instead of Asajj (though Asajj would actually have been more useful here, I made a mistake.)
Anyway, I got hammered at the start. Their Lumi crit-ability-blocked my Lumi and someone else finished her off before I could use her heal. Normally that's it, I'm toast. My Dooku was down to a sliver. But then my luck turned. I took a risk and used Daka's turn for a light heal rather than attack. Used Phasma's slow ability. And then Dooku and Daka went to work, stunning guys left and right. I ended up winning with all 4 of my guys still standing.
Of course this was lucky, that's how it is with stun characters. And before anyone starts with the "derp, see, Poe is not OP" gibberish, this wasn't by any means an optimized Poe/Poggle team, I am sure if they replace Kylo and Sid with GS and FOTP I lose even with good luck. But hey, take what I can get.
I'm hoping they tone down the damage relative to health and more interesting teams become viable.
