Who chose GG ship over GK?

Coz Grievous is the best! ;)

Nuh-uh! Kenobi rules, Grievous drools!!! :p

I'm sure this is true. I do wonder if a farmable Hyena will change the equation at all though.

We're at the point where enough people have 7* both of them to realize one isn't that much better than the other. I went Negotiator and am thrilled I did. Mine is only 5* but I can beat 7* of any capital ship because my pilots are good. The Malevolence fleets in my shard also finish first every time, so I doubt they are complaining.

Farm the one you like best or the one you have the best pilots for.

In fleet, all being equal, GK easily beats GG, as does GG easily beat GK. It’s a pretty good balanced meta. I really hope they balance new Resistance/Jedi and FO/Sith metas.

I went for Negotiator, but that was predicated on the decision to invest in Padme as a DR counter since I didn't have the mods to win mirror matches with SE. GR pilots are (mostly) in the Padme squad, so it just made the most sense to use the least amount of resources for both arenas.

I went for Malevolence. Super fun to play. Doesn't hold any better than GK ship, but does hold better than AA. Beats everything with relative ease. Too bad CG is bad at their jobs and I couldn't use it in TB this last time.

Kenobi roughs them up, Grievous coughs it up you mean ;)

Can a weak Sep fleet with a 5* Mal still beat GK with R7 Ships?

Only went for the Malevolence and I love it. 40 shards away from 7*. At the time my decision to go with the Mal was made it was an easy one as my GG was r7 and GK was g9; though they are both r7 now. I didn’t start running them until my Vulture was at 6*, 7 now. Hyena is at 5* and replaced my HT pretty early on. I’m running droids as the starting 3 and Geonosians as the reinforcements. I’ve been quite happy with the results so far. The only cap ship that gives me any issues is the Negotiator, and I think that’s more related to the pilots on the other side, and the AI will usually try to take out IG2k pretty early.

5* Malevolence, yes. Weak fleet? Probably not, but maybe.
