Help needed with my Arena Squad

HershBathens74

Hi there,

It's my turn to seek help with my arena squad.
I'm now running the following team :
zzzCLS (g12) / zHan (g12) / zzR2D2 (g12) / Biggs (g12) / Wedges (g11)
https://swgoh.gg/u/hershbathens74/squads/61453/

I'm stuck around 50/60 in my arena shard (sometimes 45 if I'm lucky).
This team does pretty well on attack, it mainly does the job, but not as well on defense...

Could you please help me to build a new squad to be able to enter more frequently the top 50 ?
Here's below my roster.
I've a 6* g11 General Kenobi that I'd be more than happy to use, a g12 Rex...
But don't know excatly what to do...

Thank you !

Depending on your shard obviously, but I hear good things on rex lead titans.. But since you don't have thrawn (or not geared) you should try rex, cls, raid han (needs more speed), r2 and GK

Sounds like you need to drop Wiggs. You can farm up Chaze (but they are pretty counterable at this point) or GK + 1 depending on the teams you face. Rex would be a solid choice generally

What teams are prevalent on your shard? Rex? EP? NS? CLS?

@Syrup_Chugger3 @HK666 thank you guys !
You re right, Han desperately needs more speed.
I focused on crit chances but really need to add speed...
Yes, I want to get rid of Wiggs.
I mainly fight Palpa/vador teams which I can often beat with Han's first shoot stunning Vador.
Also a lot of CLS / chaze / GAT teams.
And General Kenobi / Zarris teams which I absolutly don't know how to beat !

My main concern is the defense phase, I can drop 50-80 ranks during the night...
So I think I have to try Rex lead + GK (7th star in a few weeks / I hope 7* GAT this week) .

You bet I'm waiting for Bossk.
He was one of my favorites as a child.
Sweet memories...

Thrawn instead of Rex would be a step up against most teams, just because of Fracture. Even at six stars

Hi guys.
Just to let you know that I tried a new team :
Rex / CLS / Han / R2D2 / GK 6*

I finished yesterday at the 51st rank and woke up this morning at the 61st rank.
Very glad with it !

thank you all for the advises.

U will need Thrawn sooner of later to be in the current top tier arena.
