Arena characters you see as easy wins?

What teams do you find to be the easiest pickings in arena that you are almost certain you can win.

I find any team with darth sidious are always the easiest teams, since he just does not do much damage and I can easily just leave him until last. Funny, since at launch he was always revered as the must have character for arena, considered good not just because of his ease to farm in arena. Rarely see him anymore.

    Qui gon jedi teams and Droid teams. I loath Dooku teams. My Poggle, gs, 86,poe, magmatrooper do well against them. Sid almost means auto win against my magmatrooper.

    Pretty much any team that doesn't have QGJ/Dooku lead is an easy win if you are playing into the current meta.

    Not to say there aren't exceptions, but I have yet to have a hard time with this strategy. Though anyone can tell you that just by playing offense you already have an advantage.

    How are you finding magmatrooper? I have yet to encounter him which is unsurprising. Im slowly getting all the shards for the empire trooper heroes just because I love them, even though they are not very good. Yet.

    actually look for Dooku and Sid in the same group, along with Phasma.. I might avoid if they have bots, but If I bring QJ Dooku and Sid are pretty easy targets (small health pool), especially when Asajj or Initiate attacks, that's basically a free \ one shot.

    I base it on whoever attacks first, if Yoda can get the tanacity off and Sid attacks, he is going down.. if not, I do Dooku even if he retaliates.. he is critically injured.

    Then its 5 on 4, I target Dooku \ Sid next... then its 5 on 3. Then I heal..and that's the game!

    Only time I lose is when Sid evades or Dooku stuns QJ, then its lights out for me, but I never back down from a challenge.

    Droid teams and teams with Savage Opress.
  • Jedi Counselor. Love him in GW. Target any team that has him in Arena.
  • I look for any team with Q as the leader. He is just to easy to take out of the fight so I get a 5 vs 4 battle. After that I look for a team with Lumi or Sid in their squad.

  • I take it by reading this i should remove sid from my team? Idk who to put in his spot tho, i run Dooku, rey, qgj, lumi and sid
  • Anything with Chewie. Or QGJ leader with no other jedi.

    This, anyone with Chewie is sadly a certain victory.

    I will never understand the QGJ lead with no Jedi, at least run someone who helps a little bit.

    Honestly any team that doesn't have Dooku + RG.

    I will never understand the QGJ lead with no Jedi, at least run someone who helps a little bit.

    I ran across a JC lead the other day with blue gear, lvl 70. Cant remember the squad but it didn't last long.

    Droid teams are the easiest for me while I avoid teams with Doku (I run Jedi).

  • Any team with a healer whose first name is not "Old"
    Also Savage, Dachtha or Jawa, Fives, Sid, EK, Poe
  • QGJ leads on defense can still be tough because he goes before Dooku at level 72

    Yoda will turn meter you, QGJ goes, calls Rey, one shot KO, foresight

    Game over, throw in Royal Guard, Geo and it's rough, your. Dooku lead better have his dancing shoes on

    What are you using against QGJ? When I run him with Yoda Ahsoka and Lumi, I usually get 5 hits against before anyone can go but Dooku? Then it doesn't matter if you kill him since its already 5 to 3.

    If I remember correctly, only a NS team can go before Yoda QGJ. And they are not that dangerous right now.

    A Dooku lead is more difficult because you usually get a dodge in there so it tends to be 4 on 4.

    Kill her first. The old age has made her soft.

    Any team without Royal Guard and/or Dooku lead I will pounce on. Preferably a team without both but that's so rare to see nowadays

  • Anything with Chewie. Or QGJ leader with no other jedi.

    I've taken first place 5 days straight on a hard launch server running QGJ (L), GS, 86, Daka and RG. Every team sucks on defense.

    Any team that doesn't have RG will be attacked. But the reality is that anyone that is in my way will be attacked.
