He's good on a team with Phasma lead. I've seen his combined fire ability make two allies attack at once a handful of times. So awesome to see. He's supposed to have a huge amount of HP at lvl 70 too
If you face a team with Phasma leader, Fives, Dooku, and Kylo on it, you'll witness something akin to magic. An enemy player hitting an AOE more often than not will be killed from full health from the chain counters
As others have stated, Fives is great and you should definitely work on gearing him up.
I use him with Dooku and they are counter machines. Another good thing with Fives is his ability to call in the assist can be deadly if the assist is a hard hitter and either one or both get a critical hit.
I'm a big fan of characters that can counter and plan to get more. Dooku is really sweet as he often doubles on the counter and even at my current 3 star elite gear level, that's 900-1k per non critical strike and I have two healers so he is able to stay alive unless he were to be taken out right away.
Fives gets me around the same damage per hit although he seems to get a bit more critical hits and he has the benefit of far more health and his ability does more damage. Dooku's stun rarely works for me as well.
I think I have the FO Stormtrooper so I need to start working on him.
I have FOST as well and considered leveling him up... especially if they fix Phasma so FO proc more often... but he's kinda dull and he's only hard missions and I have had enough of that already with several other characters... too slow and annoying.
I have 5s at lvl 60 3* elite about to 4* him. I want an ally assist return fire team but his real value comes from HP. He is a beautiful punching bag that can call an ally that can hit harder.
I love a solid team that is full of counter-attacks, and not having to carry the most annoying Chewbacca or another traditional tank, is a bonus. I got him on my first Bronzium pull and have invested heavily in CT and have not regretted a moment.
I have a 5* fully geared ct5555s and i love him because he can take a hit and doesnt die as easily especially in this meta. His speed debuff is underrated if anything; him + dooku and kylo is beautiful against an AOE heavy team because they will counter your opponent a lot.
they left 555s behind in the new meta. Too bad. I really liked him. Enjoy him until new meta comes out. Best, avoid him if you plan forward. They also left Kylo behind, a big FU to all those who spent $99. I suppose they want people to spend hundreds for Chromium packs. Well understood.

I was lucky enough to get him in a bronze pack early and he's one of my favorite characters. I love his tankiness but he also has consistent damage and a very debilitating debuff on his basic attack. So he's not one of those tanks you can safely ignore
He's also very easy to gear up BUT farming his shards is kind of a pain in the ****. I think he's a great character but sharing cantina shipments with Daka makes for a rough decision.
I'm building him, Clone sergeant, and Plo up while I'm waiting for more clones to be added. I can't wait to do a clone team

This is an awesome team!!!

There is a new "meta" every day.
There was a call for a nerf of 5's today, that tells me that someone out there is using him right.

There was a call to nerf every character today if you read all the threads on this forum. I would consider the source.
