What's ahead 2018 - BH early in the year?
With DSTB now requiring BH, it seems obvious a rework is needed and probably planned. Below are some suggestions. Please note that only changes are developed below, in other words, it is only additions (if I do not mention an effect, it does not mean I am suggesting to remove it!).
In addition to this rework, I would love to see Bossk and Jango added as marquees, and Embo as a legendary. No suggestion for them here, I trust the devs will find great ideas with toons that start with a clean slate.
At least cleanse and taunt would be appreciated, though...

It potentially has the fastest way of growing the DS for this new DSTB
With this faction pass we could see a rework of GG, more ships: droid fighter, tri fighter etc. and even a capital ship for the sep fleet.
We could also see the release of more toons - B1 Roger droid, Droideka and even possibly Jango that could bolster the BH faction as well.
I really doubt the creators are reading the forums and thinking " yeah those stats and changes look great, lets do that right away"
In game guild: TNR Uprising
I beat the REAL T7 Yoda (not the nerfed one) and did so before mods were there to help
*This space left intentionally blank*
I honestly believe they need a whole new game mode for ships similar to DS/LS battles to allow the growth of characters/ships that need to be farmed, if they make it ship centric and put some marquee character farming there it will make ships a lot more interesting and allow f2p a great way to farm, add refreshes and the whales will spend.
I still need to work on Zam and/or Dengar. Shards are not exactly falling from the sky, however.
Other bounty hunters I'd love to see (Bossk is a given, of course): 4-LOM and Zuckuss. Mira and Hanharr (from KOTOR 2).
All the original ESB bounty hunters also had named ships. If they could add their ships in the game, it would instantly make them much more relevant and useful. (IG-88's value went way down with droid teams; Dengar's utility has also disappeared for many players.)
I don't know what you mean by saying IG88 has lost value with droid teams. He is a staple of droid teams these days and always has been. JE has fallen out of favor for BB8, while B2 is to be replaced with Imperial Probe Droid. My droid comp is HK lead, with 88, B2, R2, and BB8. I can hit top 100 in Arena with my team and that's without having mega mods or any of them being g12 up against countless g12 CLS squads.
Sorry, I wasn't clear. I meant to say that IG-88's value in the game has gone down because droid teams generally fell out of favor. That's awesome that you can hit top 100, but you've gotta admit that a top 100 droid team is very much an anomaly. On swgoh.gg, droid teams in the top 100 are basically 100% (https://swgoh.gg/meta-report/100/). Man, but more power to you if you're still getting droids to work for you.
