    That triple cleanse fight is perhaps the most boring this game has ever been.

    Only one team that doesn't have kenobi or nihilus lol. The two most plug in and play characters in arena. Doesn't matter who you put with em they bring the meta.

    Thing about chaze is it takes 2 of them to really be effective, kenobi or nihilus are solo plug in and play toons. But yes I do feel you on that. I'm guilty as charged for using chaze lol.

    They should have a none meta bonus. If you don't run the top 5 characters at that moment in arena you get 1 crystal per toon for a maximum bonus of 5 crystals. You run 3 of the top 5 then you get 2 crystals and so on. Just a little incentive to change things up and reward creativity.

    I haven't ever had chaze and was excited for Thrawn because of it. I'm currently running Tarkin L, Thrawn, DT, DN 6*, and wildcard. It's been quite successful once I learned how to use them.

    Sarcastically, "But how do you do ANYTHING without chaze or GK? A team doesn't work without them!" But really, its nice to see a team that doesn't use chaze or GK. Nihilus I'm fine with seeing everywhere

    I really thought Chaze would have been a phase, and for people who talk about rex having a longer tenure, that's really only when Chaze is around, so it's not the same.

    I've been very happy with Thrawn even though it was a pain in the tuckus to get him here. When I got DT, I was sad to realize that Krennic would've been a better 5th but so far the wild card is holding well.

    Good to see we're still in the Chaze, GK, DN, *insert newest toon here* meta. They keep adding new characters to try to shut down these teams, but people just put the anti-triple-cleanse toon into their triple-cleanse teams and we continue as usual.

    Maybe we've just finally reached the point where a set of characters are so effective that nothing can remove them from the meta. This might even mean that we finally see the devs use... gotta whisper this last bit... nerfs.

    ... Or they'll just add a toon that has a unique which makes them do 10x damage to triple-cleanse toons and stops the character from being able to be placed in a team with any of those characters. That seems more likely.

    Sadly gk is the best wildcard. ShT and Krennic are possibilities though.

    As someone already said, GK in there for the wildcard and you are set!!! That's my team now, works wonders, haven't fought a zader, sass team yet but we'll see

    I'm not too worried about zader SA lead because all you would need to do to stomp it is flip Thrawn to lead.

    Remember when thematic team building and lead sinergy was a thing?

    They should give negative arena awards just for using this trash. Wanna use this garbage? You should be charged $5 everytime you play with it. Shame on you both ea and cg for implementing this mess. Bad enough you cant fix the stuff that has been broken for over a year without adding this fecality to the game. I hope the whales and the dev team get off on tugging each other with this mess. Buying crystals? Not anymore.

    Maybe giving faction bonuses and/or penalties could help mix the arena up a bit. Like if you run opposing factions, or dark and light toons on one team you gain penalties, while pure teams gain team bonuses (apart from rebels ;) )

    It is a little annoying that these same teams beat me on defense. Though I think one does hack.

    Omg the game was so much fun back then! I was changing teams all the time trying new combos and using a lot of my roster. Then chaze happened and this whole game turned into get chaze or find five toons that can beat them. Game hasn't been the same since and now I rarely ever change my team or even think about changing it.

    Here's a different Thrawn team vs Jedi...

    Have to manually control your characters to be effective however (feels almost like cheating)

    I actually think it's a good idea. It doesn't need to be EVERY Dark/Light Side character to have penalties, but, really, mixing up jedis and siths, rebels and imperials, are just "wut"? Maybe not every dark and light side should conflict, but opposing factions would be nice.
