The Best and Worst of SWGoH - Characters

This guide contains most of the characters from 7/10/2017 ranked from best to worst! Let’s begin:

CLS
Raid Han
GK
Chirrut
Baze
Rex
Wedge
Nihilius
Thrawn
R2
Boba
Lando
Kylo
HY
Barris
EP
Biggs
JKA
Ezra
DK
DT
Shorer
AA
GMT
Vader
Maul
CHS
Dooku
BB8
GMY
ROLO
Talzin
Daka
Ventress
NSZ
Hera
Zeb
Sidious
Kanan
Old Ben
QGJ
HK-47
JE
IG-88
SRP
Nebit

Now I would say that part of the list is the top. I will now start working my way down to the bottom 17.

Jawa
CW Chewie
JC
NSI
Veers
EK
Plo
Lobot
Magma
JKG
URoRRuR’R’R
Tusken
Tusken Shaman
CUP
Mob Enforcer
GG
Ugnaught

Now that is the end of the list so far, all characters not mentioned are okay; not Arena Meta but not trash: useful in GW. Some toons have been saved from the bottom end by being a good pilot. All these toons are good/bad in all areas. Next I will be focusing on pilots...

    I don't think EP is one of the best toons right now... :disappointed:

    I am thrilled for the bottom part of this list. Actually I kinda consider trying out some kind of "best-squad-possible made-up of undisputedly-bad-characters". Odd idea, I know; but why would I do all the same stuff as everyone else? :-D
    Just imagine finding some way to maneuver something like Mob Enforcer or Corruscant Underworld Police into the top ranks of your arena shard.


    Nute gunray leia, geonosian spy boba fett and some other have synergy with nute lead

    Lando and EP feel out of place that high on the list, personally.


    Lando is great in TB. His AoE does massive damage. The problem is, that this guide doesn't specify which game mode it covers or wether it's overall. Furthermore it doesn't specify that some toons require some other synergy toon in the team to shine instead of being weak.

    Lando feels out of place appearing twice in the top—12 of the list

    Ugnaught was the first free card I ever got. Good times. I know it isn't the point of the list, as you are probably a level 85 with plenty of characters, but he's okay in very specific cantina missions when you are a noob. Magma has low dps for his role but he is fairly tanky for arena trooper builds. Again as a noob when your options are limited he does alright.

    Ugnaughts are cute and all, they had their use in battles against Droid metas. Magma can do some pretty decent damage and has a place in a IT team.
