Why Pao as April Log-In is Awesome
1) April is typically a busy month for me, IRL.
2) Pao pretty much stinks in terms of his abilities. After much digging and analysis, most players think he is just like (insert name of mediocre support/attacker here)...only not quite as a good.
Given the above two points, for the first time in 16+ months of playing this game, I won't feel bad if I miss a log in day!!
Thank you EA/CG for making Pao so lame and saving me the effort of caring about logging in every day!

WAIT WHAT?? Why??? 12 effing turns?????? Even nihilus doesn't have that... and he literally one shots people
thats why hes trash
lol
Ahh, didn't get to that point haha. It makes a a lot more sense now I suppose.
I did read it. They'll go down to about 6-7 after one round then about 2-3 after the second, but only if you have a full rebel team and you haven't already been slaughtered by the other team's actual squad that uses quality toons.
Does Leias Triple shot count as one.. or 3 cooldowns removed.
Because hes be great under a Ackbar lead with Leia.
I 7* FOTP without using any energy refreshes, get on my level
Whoa whoa whoa... its not really synergy until you and eggs and taters... ham, bacon and sausage is more like "ethnic diversity" than synergy.
Edit: Also, I think he is intended to be used with Chaze and/or Cassian and K2SO. Counter attacks and assists could literally drop his cooldowns and give him lots of TM.
make ackbar and leia relevant though
Nah his kit is amazing if you break it down and really theory craft. You'll see.
I hope thats how it works. Then Leia can do 3 as well. And with an Ackbar lead if he or Leia gets called in that's a pretty good chance to start reducing cooldowns even more.
Also the +5% TM whenever a rebel uses a basic attack is a Zeta according to swgoh.gg.
I guess I can see it. It's weird but satisfying to see a character with so much simplicity... and by that I mean a toon that doesn't have a small novel for each ability description
Also, consider him being used with Chaze. With them counterattacking, he will be getting lots of TM and cooldown reduction.
Yea he will need to be in a full rebel squad... I think he'll be solid. +1 about the simple kit. Wish they kept all characters like that.
Basic attack : inhale oxygen from personal mask ; 75% chance to cause a rebellion in Jedha.

Ackbar (L), Pao, Chirrut, Baze, Leia ?
Seems pretty legit in theory. Try and speed up Pao to make him go first would probably be a great start off for Leia and Chirrut. Ackbar + Chirrut gives you a double cleanse. Leia + Chirrut + Pao for offense (Although Pao's Basic hits for lower than SRP, it can just hit three times at that lower damage. His AOE doesn't seem too powerful, but he's the first rebel that can give offense up to everyone isn't he?
I was thinking in raids with Leia he'd be a beast.
For arena, I was actually thinking Chaze, Cassian, K2, and Pao.
Cassian grants tenacity up at the start of the match which will throw a wrench in the 1st turn zMaul debuff fest.
He's just got an interesting kit really, I'm never one to complain about more characters being added as long as we can actually get and use them. He could potentially have some very good uses with some of the current rebels we have, whereas the Phoenix Squad is basically going to have to be used together which is cool, but kinda annoying as I don't have nearly enough resources to gear that many characters right away. Plus theory crafting is more fun that whining about releases.
The reason why is because Phoenix squad is a team unit; they only work well together. Pao is a newcomer with no direct character synergies, and lately, any toon that doesn't require a partner or whatever is cool in my book... but pao is still really unecessary
