Suggestions for a defensive team for arena?
Advance disclaimer: I know that "arena defense" is somewhat of an oxymoron in this game. I'm just trying to do as well as I can. So I provide a lot of advice here but now I am looking for yours. I w...

Thanks for all the replies. Good community here. :)
This team hinges on Old Ben (who is still very useful IMO despite what some say). I don't have him. Without him this doesn't work much better than what I am running now.
After Barriss was nerfed and Phasma came out, I decided to try to build a stun/counter team. It never was "meta" but did well enough for me, but was never really top 10 material. That's why Phasma, Kylo, Dooku, Daka and Ventress are all up there. But after a few weeks it was getting hammered by Poe teams. Then I unlocked a bunch of guys and tried my current team.
I have most of the tools for this, but I'm not yet convinced of using Barriss in an arena team. The DPS is so high I just don't think her health boost matters enough, and she does no damage.
Yeah I am thinking along these lines... teams that can be beat but people don't want to bother with. I guess I'll go back to working on Fives, though he should be viable at 5*. Dooku will be 7* probably within a week (unless the new guy in Cantina is someone I really like) and the rest are maxed or close.
I suppose it makes sense to use RNG on defense, it at least gives you a chance of ruining someone's day. Might even try this with Lumi in the last slot until I get Fives to at least 5*.
Well, I started before they changed the currency. The simple answer is that nothing in there interested me and I already have more characters unlocked than I have the credits to level up so pulling stuff out seemed pointless. I assumed they would add someone new each month to all the shipment types, obviously incorrectly.
Then once the shard shop was announced I figured they might be useful for that, but it so far has turned out to be a disappointment.
I also am expecting GW to become significantly harder in the future.
That said, I stopped adding to the stockpile at around 25k. I am slowly farming Poggle from there right now. Though he too is level 3.

Didn't know that you are a Phasma user.

One guy on my server runs Phasma (lead), Kylo, Daka, Dooku and Fives. All 7* and max. I avoid this guy like the plague. With my current team I win 95% on offense but it's more like 50% or less vs this team.

@Qeltar why are you hoarding gw tokens? If you don't buy crystals for refreshes you're going to have a hard time spending them.
