New Game Mode Idea - Survival

My Idea is a sort of survival game mode similar to galactic war, it could be daily or weekly or inbetween, but essentially,
The event would choose five completely random toons (no gear, star or level requirement) and if you have any of them you are able to participate, unfortunately if you were to have none of the required toons you would be unable to take part in this particular challenge.
So lets say in this instance the five toons are Geonosian Soldier, Luminara, Nute Gunray, Ima Gun Di & Wedge, you would only be able to use these toons at the current level you have them. Now the game has randomly generated waves of enemies that start off fairly easy and gradually get harder. So essentially you have to see how far you can get using these toons.
The rewards could be tiered, say you reach tier 5 you get a mixture of basic gear and credits, whereas if you reach a landmark tier such as 10 you gain shards for one of the newly released characters. The possibilities could be endless and its up to them how they could reward players.
So essentially this mode would reward players who may have geared up non meta characters and actually make all characters viable in the game, like there could be a day where ugnaught and CUP are suddenly useful, thus meaning that people haven't necessarily wasted their resources leveling these characters up.
It would also be beneficial to the Devs as they could incorporate a way to pay crystals to revive a character so you can carry on, as well as encouraging people to upgrade every character meaning they might spend more money.
I feel like this sort of mode could keep the game fresh and interesting as it incorporates more variety into the game
Please let me know what you think
EDIT - You would not have to use all 5 toons, you could use 4 out of the 5 if you didn't have the fifth

I'd say have crystals starting at pay 50 to refresh entire roster and gradually increase by 50.
Yeah that was what I was thinking but given the recent pricing of some stuff in the game 50 per character seems more likely haha
I like the random draw, but it could use 15 random and you pick your best 5 that way you can great a useful team still
Well I think the RNG character choice is one of the best things about it, could be fun having completely random characters fighting together
Yeah that would probably work better to be honest
Thanks guys glad you like it
Yeah exactly my thinking, I think it would make the game so much more fun aswell, seeing as every day we pretty much use the same characters
I also would like to see a similar thing except you get to pick a squad to survive vs waves of Undead Troopers
starwars.wikia.com/wiki/Undead_Trooper
Leave it characters that have been given farm locations (3 months after initial release)
Or if a toon is part of the rotation, have the rotation consist of at least a full team of farmable people. So maybe 5 farmable toons, and then one or two that some might have. So Gar, Commando, so on. This way you can make a squad of toons that are available, and if you dropped cash for someone then you'll also have the chance to try them out. Everyone wins.
My good sir/madam, you may want to offer them your services in exchange for cash if you will be attempting to create great ideas for them that the people enjoy. Get payed for your strokes of brilliance!
Haha thanks definitely wouldn't mind that!
I would like a few restrictions on how the characters are selected, but otherwise a very fun sounding idea.
