Squad Arena Shipments: Hold or Fold?

Diktaorr_Ryan

My current A-team is
Luminara 7*
Sid Vicious 6*
Biggs Darklighter 6*
Luke 5->6* (SOON)
Daka 6*

And once I'm done with Biggs I'm getting started on Poggle. Problem is, I'm nearly done with Sidious and a lot of the Arena Shipments kinda underwhelm me. I got St Han to 5* Gear 5 before I switched to Sid, and Ventress is mildly tempting, but at present I don't know who to farm next. IG-88 is tempting, because with Poggle I can forge the nucleus of a Droid team. I could finish St Han to see if he gets better. Or I could boost up the Nute Gunray I got in a Chromium pull for... something? Most Radical Option: Hold my tokens in the hope that the rumored update puts cool new characters into the Arena shipments that I can then grab before anyone else laughing maniacally as I do so. Suggestions? Any and all ideas are welcome, thanks guys.

I'm on the same boat. Don't know if it's worth holding on to them while waiting for CG to push an update lol

Well, by my calculations I have just under a week to figure it out. May the vagaries of update release timings shine a holy light upon me.

How is Biggs? I've never faught him at a higher level.

Useful enough already, to be honest. My team is currently designed to take down teams with 7* Sidious in them. Biggs crits reasonable often and at moderate-high power, and his "call a friend" secondary can hit like a truck. Combine it with turn meter + evasion gain on being hit by a crit and his utility currently exceeds IG-86 for me. I'm hoping "ship synergies" is not ****, because I'm 67% certain he will become beastly once it's implemented. Otherwise he's... average? A bit past average.

Currently my style of PvP goes
Daka tries to stun Sid
Sid AoEs
Sid gets murdered by everyone but Lumi
Lumi Silences support/taunter
Time executions of characters to avoid healings by Barisses, or apply healing immunity if needed.
