Thrawn lead needs one AI change now.
If there is a specific post about this already I apologize. I searched, and didn't see one. This has been mentioned before, but it needs its own post. Guild mates of mine have confirmed what we saw...

A lot of people are confusing moves that aren't optimal like Vader culling blade, r-2 (I think it's set up right), Ahsoka, Zarris, and savage with AI that isn't rational.
Leia trying to steath with buff immunity and 50 percent of thrawns kit arent just less than optimal. They are irrational.
This. Vader or Ahsoka using a special at the wrong time still does damage. It needs more extensive AI work to straighten that out.
You cannot know that. None of us can without knowing precisely how the AI is coded and handled. We can only speculate. If I'm to guess, the reason why Thrawn is the way he is, is due to the AI system itself handling him within its coding perimeters which is why I say fix the system itself. The case of Thrawn might simply be a byproduct of the larger issue at hand.
Every cleanse in the game that I have ever used or watched AI use works perfectly. I don't have any experience with Lobot, but I have never witnessed AI use a cleanse when there was nothing to cleanse. They already have Rex, Chirrut, and Ackbar coded to use their cleanses ONLY when there is a debuff to cleanse.
That is completely different than not having the AI designed to be able to survey a battle, use several steps of logic, and choose between several possible courses of action. It's one th No that already exists, and works perfectly. Is there a debuff? Then cleanse. No debuffs? Then don't cleanse.
And this is still all assumption of how the AI is actually coded.
Is it done by playback and record individually for each character? Is it coded within certain perimeters of abilities, classes, ability types etc.? You see what I'm getting at? Thrawn may be acting off general, impersonal code that happens to sway him more evidently than others. These findings should address the real issue at hand that is affecting not just Thrawn, but many other characters doing very questionable things.
