If you are going to make some heroes stupid broken

You could at least give their power rating an appropriate level. I just got facerolled by literally the least "power" rated team I have seen all week because a Darth Maul halved my jedis with his special and the AI focused down my JC/Lumi before/after that. Game over, you lose to the team with 950 less power when you win about 80% of battles against similar power teams.
How is it fair that I have come to conclude that a team with at least 5% less power than mine has DM and/or Kylo Ren on it? Fix their power rating FFS, it is unethical to deceive people like this. /**** off rant

And when choosing an opponent all you know about their comp is their leader and 90% of the time at my level this indicates nothing of your team comp. 95% of leaders are sid, chewie and phasma. And in this particular match it was closer to 10% power difference. That is the problem, power is the ONE thing you should reliably expect as an indicator of success from an opponent in the arena lobby.
The fun part of the game is you can build different teams with different synergies.
It would be if you actually could see the team you were facing before the fight began. But the AI is so bad that this would tilt things even further in favor of players.
I have a similar "power rating problem".. I want to change my PvP squad, but until I get my guys up to a higher star level I can't, because my team power rating would drop so much that everyone would want to fight me. Even though the team still works pretty well, I'd lose because of the AI.
Maul does more damage against Jedi so it is rather normal, he is pretty much only useful against Jedi and if he didn't have that he'd be completely useless.
Until we get the ability to see the full opponent, you'll want to have flexibility in your roster to adjust for any surprises like Maul. That may take time to build, but that's part of the fun too - building the roster and one day facing a Maul and taking him out with ease because you have the tools to do it.
I hope they add the 4 squad slots like they have in HODA.
Wish there was a way to alter topic names since a lot of titles have nothing to do with problems players describe.

Actually the title is fine. The entire problem I have is that there are certain heroes that simply outperform their power rating. It is not rocket science.
So your logic is that if a toon has similar power rating it should roughly at equal levels? Wow, it is not 'rocket science' to realise each toon has a different kit regardless of their power.
Power is just stats - anyone with any special abilities, good specials like Obi Wan or Phasma, or good leader skills / uniques will outperform their power by a long shot. Power is a weak indicator of difficulty.
Poe was your bigger problem there - not Maul. Pull out Maul from that team and insert another attacker and you'd still have problems. Pull out Poe for Chewy and leave Maul and you'd have a lot easier time. Poe directed your fire, slowed your turn meter, and exposed you for big damage. Poe was the key piece there - not Maul.
Life is full of adversity. I think you'll be fine.
His team comp counters yours..... waaaah.
Didnt know 40% = 100%. Anymore profound insight you care to offer?
Hey look, I just got wrecked by a hidden Kylo on a team with 1,000 less power than me. Literally the first pvp I have lost since making this thread. But grossly underrated power p2p heroes that I am 3 levels from being able to start farming wrecking my team is fair and balanced. /payers
