Maul's finishing blow
Maul's normal attack has 100% meter gain on a finishing blow. It would be an awesome tool for him if it works in an assist attack, for example GS calling Maul to assist and kill some foe and Maul can take turn right away. But sadly it doesn't work as I tried it in cantina battle. (Never tried it in PVP because my maul is too weak)
Given that the current meta focuses too much on speed, slow characters with low health such as Maul and Ventress are absolutely useless. So instead of nerfing OP characters as so many people are crying for, I propose buffing those characters that are forced to the bench because of their fatal flaws, which I believe will create so many possibilities for new combos and diversity among top rankings.
A typical example is Ventress. I think the changes they made in the new update doesn't help her getting near to PVP at all. A good solution for her slow speed would be giving her meters every time when someone dies. I would definitely farm her if that's the case and I'm sure it would make so many Ventress owners happy. Also the AI should always make her AOE instead of dispel on her first turn. It's terrible programming, CG, fix it right away. It's just as amateur and humiliating as the Dooku ability bug.
Sorry about the rant. I'm just tired of seeing threads about nerfing you-know-who. How about making more characters OP and at least we will see more diversity in the nerf posts.
God, I miss the good old days of OP Dooku, Leia, Ben and Bariss.

Do you have a good maul btw?
When called with a + 75% assist of QGJ it can be quite nasty, especially on a Jedi obviously...
He will also have a 100% offense up as well when they open the lvl limit.
He also becomes even more of a beast after 1 or 2 losses in the enemy team... +20% crit chance then +20% evade
So yes, he is a glass canon, he is often dead very quickly in defense in pvp but overall very fun and useful character... If you can get him to 7 stars which is the main problem.
Oh and it seems the amount of Jedis may increase these next weeks, right! Yum yum ;-)
"It works " you mean when maul is called to assist and he kills the foe that he will gain 100% meters?
I encourage this type of thinking.. I look back at my streak of 40+ days at #1 with my (mostly) Jedi team smile and think, "it's funny how people just repeat things they have read as gospel, without any experience."
I guess it's fun being a lemming, you always have people with you, even when you are falling off a cliff.
Have you tried it with GS or 86 assist? Or is it phasma only?
Got it thanks!
Thanks for sharing this. How much does his AOE does on a critical on nonjedi?
That makes a lot of sense, when I tried it my GS already killed the toon so that's why I thought it didn't work. Thanks for the info guys! Glad we are able to work out the problem
