So I'm working on a pure bounty hunter, Jango-lead Arena Team right now. I know it's not top of the line, but somewhat viable and since I find Bounty Hunters incredibly fun, that's worth losing a few ranks and crystals in arena to me (I never was much of a meta player anyway).
Thing is, I'm already sure it's gonna be Jango, Bossk, Boba and Dengar, but I'm torn for the fifth spot... Embo or (gasp!) Aurra? I realise she's geared toward the raid, but hear me out for a sec.
So Embo has high burst damage, that sweet, sweet dispel on his basic, plus foresight makes him fairly durable. On the other hand, he does not dish out any debuffs or AOE and doesn't really synergise that well with Jango imo. Also, once the contract goes off, dispelling taunts isn't all that important becase you'll be ignoring them anyway.
Aurra on the other hand is a little faster and has that stun chance on her basic (extra chance to get a debuffed target to hit). Plus she gets turn meter from hitting debuffed enemies which is what you wanna do with a Jango L in the first place and therefore will probably a lot more active than Embo. Her special attack is tuned towards the raid, sure, but still does a ton of damage. However, I don't think her specials are worth using before the contract goes off and she gets the stealth with it. Also, I'm stuck behind taunts until the contract.
TL;DR: I think Embo is better before the triggered contract, after that Aurra becomes better. The question now is: Which one to choose?

Id surely take embo.
So thanks for your input on that, much appreciated
My lineup would be the same as yours but my choice for the 5th toon is between Embo and Greedo. So why don't you consider him? Hits like a truck, AoE TDs, stun with his zeta...
Anywhy, you bring up some good reasons to consider Aurra, thanks for that.
Even if you run a django! lead, i'll still put embo as 5th.
Just fyi, i dont have BH geared enough to try em lol. All speculation.
Boba
88
Jango
Dengar
88 can be replaced with greedo. It is an upgrade if zetaed
Otherwise I would choose Embo over Aurra, but I have not used her as much yet. Embo can easily do 60-70k damage at 4*g10 once he gets his contract and goes back to back - with 20-25k of that ignoring protection. Enough to one-shot most attackers and a few tanks. Hes one of the best burst damage dealers in the game.
I also think that OG Chewie may throw a wrench in all of that.. Jango giving speed to Scoundrels may make Chewy/Han devastating on a BH team... Food for thought!
