Opinion on why Obiwan is on Cantina
In my opinion he is in Cantina because he is useless in this meta
in few weeks when everybody starred him up
Everyone will also have decent starred yoda and basically against yoda obiwan is
useless.
So to speak Whales won't mind if FTP have him now.
because he is useless now.
well he is cool character at least
cheers

nope. new update which will be sometime during today he will be in cantina
That's good news for me since I only need one more shard to get him to 5 star and can get yoda today. But overall I won't be using him much.
Old Ben is one of my favorite toons. Excellent turn meter manipulation and skill set. His leader skill will be great now that they're fixing that bug.
And speed+ damage isn't everything.
Dunno about the guy defining him as useless... but for me he has one useless passive unique... as it's rare as a player for you to kill him anything but last.
In the past he was a essentially a pay to win character prior to his nerf. His nerf essentially rendered his unqiue skill into a wasted ability which no one is going to trigger because he doesn't pose a threat like he used to.
The unique ability really needs to be made into a sith-only taunt! Such that any sith character will target him... then that passive may seem more useful... Til then he is essentially 66% character, as his third ability will hardly if ever trigger, even the AI won't target him early.
Mind tricks is good, but the long cooldown on it will mean you'll be lucky to use it more than once in the vast majority of fights... which severely limits the use of Obi Wan in the GW.
At the moment his usefulness is half of what the majority of other characters are...
Game used to be fun when it wasn't a grind... if I wanted a grind I would have went and played old school Everquest or some Korean MMO!
But.
If your opponent has Yoda, Tenacity Up will prove Kenobi just useless; his Mind Tricks will get resisted by all toons.
depends on the team old ben is on... If it's fast, you still want to defeat him last cause fast moving characetrs with all those buffs will decimate your team before Yoda can share them and Yoda isn't exactly a character with a lot of health.. bear in mind you need yoda to reach his turn again before he can share the buff... So this strategy is only viable if the team Old Ben is on is slow, if you want Yoda to copy all of those buffs

Wow. you honestly have no idea in this game .
Obiwan has one skill that is mind trick.
few weeks from now most of people have yoda.
If yoda is in the team Old Ben's trick gets resisted by everyone 100%.
Without it he has no damage just tanky guy who I can let him live till the end.
So yeah he is definitely useless.
Lol... Ok, so now I have no idea how to play this game. I guess I had better go home and rethink my life now. ^^
No but srsly, don't tell me how Yoda works. Notwithstanding that the vast majority of teams in my top 20 doesn't use Yoda, there's also the fact that AI usually attacks first turn and saves battle meditation for later. When player controlled... Well, most teams win on the offense anyway. Don't need Yoda for that.
In general, stating that this and this toon is useless because this and this toon counters it, makes me wonder how you think games like these are designed? Everything has counters.
This. Everyone's acting as if Ben's obsolete now. He's amazing on offense and there's a good chance the AI will **** up anyways.
Although Sid is not as annoying as Old Ben will be.
your talking about yoda with his defense. seriously we are talking about yoda when we are attacking.
On defense AI uses everyone wrong and extremely less powered or skilled team can beat anybody with
right attack cause AI defense is just horrible.
what I am saying is yes you can use obiwan and he is still ok character but he is 20% at best
from what he used to be before yoda appeared.
interesting... I totally agree with you.
win win
You missed the part where I mentioned Yoda on attack? It's not like you're gonna win too many battles on the defense anyway. Yoda doesn't change anything. He just reinforces a pattern that was already there.

Well said - Yoda doesn't kill Old Ben at all because AI Yoda doesn't proc meditation first. Old Ben's mind tricks is still one of the best skills in the entire game....and you can use him well vs. these damage / speed builds in a tanking squad. Everyone should absolutely farm Old Ben at some point because if you are able to reasonably get his skill off, it absolutely obliterates a team.
Agreed, I run a 5* Ben with everyone else at 7*s on a server started last November and have no trouble breaking the top 50. Yodas been around for a month and no ones scared of him. With anakin and QGJ I'll take Yoda's foresight and then he's gone. Old Ben and leia go ham and before you know it it's 5 v 3. I would take old Ben on offense and defense anyday of the week over Yoda, but that's just my opinion. I'm more wary of daka dooku and ST han teams because the self revive and TM manipulation has got me before. Glad that's getting fixed, but didnt know Leia was bugged so we'll see how that plays out.
breaking top 50? that ain't even hard son
Obi-Wan Kenobi
Bear in mind that Mayhem also does damage and can be reused every few turns, and that HK doesn't sit there uselessly the rest of the game.
You're on a roll today!
