    Cody, Echo, and Clone Sergeant all need it, Rex and Fives are the only questionable one imo

    History has taught me that the newest characters can't be had and don't return. Malak padme.....

    I think they actually teased Jar Jar. I think that’s an actual thing.

    It sucks because the clone squad is actually a really good squad (mine is g12 and fully modded) but they just don't add up to the new squads being released

    All our current clones may be getting reworks, for example the Geo TB clone sarge has a new ability the would work well with a Cody lead. (Just a loop of assists). As far as new characters go, most likely Ponds, because he is already fully kitted out in the Geo TB and either Gregor and Wolffe because they were in rebels or Waxer and Boil for Cody. And if we truly believe, then hopefully Delta squad (No adviser). Other obscure possibilities are the rest of the 501st boys or other clone Captains and commanders alongside their Jedi general reworks (Ponds and Windu, Baccara and Ki Adi Mundi for example).

    I’d like the shock trooper clones or whatever they’re called from the Geo TB.

    They destroy me.

    I think the sharpshooters are really interesting, I would like to get my hands on one. Maybe on an armor shred based team with Sabine and Zaalbar? Could be interesting.

    Arc Trooper. Yeah he and the clone commander seems like they are placeholders for new playable toons. Hopefully Gregor and Wulff.

    We will get another clone or 3, I think Ponds looks very likely.
    I think they will rework them so that \\\leader abilities will become uniques instead - rex and cody can grant bonuses as sidekicks to jedi leaders. Then we will have enough for two Jed-Clone hybrid teams. Look for a a couple more jedi to get clone bonuses built into their leader abilities: Anakin, GK, Ki Adi Mundi (slap that forehead).

    Mundi might be comming to the game but the Slap forehead comment is a direct reference to lame Jar Jar, a character as uninspired as that road ahead post was:

    You could be right on the Jar Jar....I would be fine with him in the game as long as he wasn't useful, just like in the movies. Give him CUP status, let people farm him and theory craft but he should be a red herring.

    Given there are only 5, it would be very odd/lazy (sorry) not to rework them all. Such a small faction shouldn't be partially reworked, especially given recent reworks have been highly synergy-focused, even to the extent that they render characters less viable outside highly specific teams.

    For example, Dooku's anti-Jedi bonus was removed and his leadership ability lost its "applies to everyone" quality. (Please don't do this to Rex's leader ability btw!) If they aren't all reworked some may not fit into the new team dynamic as well as others, and could be noticeably weaker overall too.

    The wording of the announcement also makes me think they'll all be reworked. At first I read that "a select few" will get updates and took it at face value... but a select few typically refers to a small percentage, since they aren't "select" at all if they make up the majority of a group... so I'm not sure it was meant to be taken literally. Maybe it was meant to refer to the 5 clones in the game, out of all the clones produced?

    The synergy graphic for Shaak Ti didn't include the clone Sargent. I'm guessing he'll be phases out. I'm hoping the clone Sargent gets a new skin and name to become either Heavy or Hard Case. I don't think it will happen, but I can dream.

    I think Cody will get a rework and become a damage dealer since he's an attacker. I also think 5s will get a tune up so he has a taunt.

    Seriously the whole "tanks that can't taunt for themselves" thing needs to be reworked throughout the game.

    Tanks that have passive Damage reduction for the whole team (like Vandor) or a building threat mechanic (like Sion) are ok. But without abilities like that tanks need a taunt. And the GR toons like 5s Mace Plo and JKG are the worst offenders of the bunch.

    Why does everyone think/ want Clone sarge to be removed and/or changed into Heavy or Hardcase, its not going to happen because clone sarge is acquired at the start of the game and is an actual star wars clone type for Phase 1. it'd be easier for CG to leave him there and add either Heavy or Hardcase as a new character. It's the same idea as hoth rebel soldier or first order storm trooper. basic infantry archetypes.

    (Low key some people are probably salty that a clone sarge 1 shot their Malak in Geo TB lol)

    Cloning is a crime against humanity and anybody caught cloning should go to jail.

    If Jar Jar is coming to the game I will consider quitting it’s bad enough we got Rose Tico and that’s a low as you can get

    Oh get over it, Jar Jar’s been canon for twenty years and he’s honestly not the worst thing about Star Wars.

    You’re right Jar Jar ain’t that bad. The worst thing in Star Wars is Rose Kathleen Kennedy Rian Johnson JJ Abrams and the sequel trilogy

    And why is that?

    Have you not been watching the movies? JJ copies off Ep 4 for 7 and Rian Johnson took a big diversity riddled c r a p on the entire franchise with 8. Kathleen is a PR nightmare that blames men for everything and Rose is the worst character ever

    So you don’t like diversity and believe that women are being sexist. And that’s why you don’t like the new trilogy.

    (Btw the similarities from 4 and 7 are very much intended, not only for nostalgia (but mostly for nostalgia) but also for storytelling purposes.)

    Having similarities is one thing, copy and paste is another. Also, as a teacher, the use of you using parentheses inside an existing set is absolutely cringeworthy

    I'm hoping for three new Clones and then for Plo Koon to get a rework that is similar to Shaak TI's. Two Jedi/Clone teams or the option to make one viable full Clone team would be great.

    Im, sory? welcome 2 the internet

    As a teacher, you might know that history repeats itself. It’s a theme in Star Wars. Think trilogy, not individual movie.

    While JJ created a similar movie, he set the grounds for a different ending and story. That’s also in keeping with Star Wars themes.
