Which characters do you consider to be most underrated?

Like the title says. Who are some of your half-favorite (or totally favorite) characters that get little to no love??

I can't help but think of assaj ventress. I admit it seems like she could wind up having a mediocre showing if her mass dispel isn't timed right or if you can't seem to launch her AoE when she has offense/crit chance up (from her unique)... it really is all about timing with her and of course her stun isn't reliable. But when her stun procs and/or she gets off one or two AoE attacks with Offense/Crit Chance up and/or she gets a dispel off when the other team has multiple buffs + a taunt, I'd say she can walk away from an arena match/ PvE encounter being your MVP. It feels funny putting her on an arena defense team however... I imagine her using her dispel at the wrong times/ using her basic instead of her AoE when she has offense + crit chance up. Anyone know if the AI for ventress has been fixed?

Also have to shout out to magmatrooper. Not sure if he had a rework but it seems like he deserves way more love than he is getting. Can you think of a "mass turn meter removal" ability/ character?? Magmatrooper is it! Also removes turn meter on his basic and gains tons of turn meter whenever he suffers a debuff/ resists a debuff. He gets lots of turns and makes sure the opponents get less.

Honorable mention is your boy teebo. Nuff said.

Who are your favorite underdogs?

    DeathTrooper. From day 1 he has been a beast and doesn't get no respect.


    Agreed. He is sitting at 6 ☆s, g11 with me, and he is my second powerful toon, even topping Vader and EP (which is funny..). He has a really nice toolkit.

    Also, Gar Saxon. His leader ability is awesome combined with Veers and troopers imo. Not meta, but it is fun.
    DT attacks twice against rebels - Gar assists twice as well. Vader exposes - I've had four counter attacks, and Gar assists each time (good rng haha). Also, every time Veers assists, a good chance to gain speed up.
  • I'd also say deathtrooper. Great kit with Maul dying might finish gearing him and put him into arena under Zader to build an anti-cleanse team.
