First, he has Target Lock synergy without having any in his kit, so another Bad Batch clone (probably Crosshair) is going to apply Target Lock.
Second, it specifies in his unique ability that Galactic Legends are unaffected by the TMR even though it only affects Droids and Separatists, and there are currently no Droid/Sep GLs. Does anyone else think this means that we're getting a Separatist GL soon?
Edit: Realized I misread the kit, and the only the TMR doubling affects Droids/Seps; all characters are susceptible to the TMR in the first place. Still, Galactic Republic/Separatist GL pair coming soon?
It could make sense for their to be a GL Ahsoka with Mandolorian and CW s7. From Cinema/Television who else could be as "Galactic Legend"ary that hasn't already been released? Pretty much Maul and Ahsoka. Then, is Maul even GL calibur? Kenobi cut him in half, then killed him 30 years later, Emporer really messed up Maul while killing his brother. GG put up more of a fight against Kenobi than Maul did, and I hate to say GG is probably more legendary.
Who is the other person going to be for the team? Hunter +3 more. And then: "Clone Trooper allies gain Evasion Up and Stealth for 2 turns. Then, deal Physical damage to all enemies.
If Hunter was already Stealthed, all Bad Batch allies gain Critical Chance Up and Offense Up for 2 turns."
And if everybody is in stealth, it's like nobody is in stealth.
I'm guessing wrecker once stealthed will recover health then unstealth.

Maybe a caped grievous not sure what other separatist GLs they could add.
So, either a droid or sep GL must be in the works...
Or this could just be a team meant for PVE, specifically LS Geo TB?
It says double tm removal against droids and seps, excluding galactic legends. We don't currently have a GL that is either. Why add that exclusion unless they anticipate it being a problem against a future GL?

The unavoidable, irresistible 50% turn meter removal in his leader ability applies to any exposed enemy under the condition that the attacking ally is a Bad Batch character and the enemy is not a raid boss or any of the current or future galactic legends, while, so long as the enemy is not a raid boss or galactic legend, and the enemy is either a droid or separatist, it’s doubled to 100% turn meter removal, which can’t be evaded or resisted. The ability effect not applying doesn’t necessarily mean a separatist or droid galactic legend is coming (much as I’d like that) soon, but that the turn meter removal doesn’t affect galactic legends.
i wonder if the 5th member will be a legendary type.
i was thinknig 2 of the 6 marquees would still be for mof gideons squad and the mandalorians. while the other 4 were bad batch at least. granted the 5th member could also be a marquee, but then who is the 6th...

Probably refers to the 50% TMR against everyone, but written in CG language.

oh that's how you read that? I read that way differently. "When using an ability against a Target Locked enemy, Bad Batch allies can't be countered. When damaging an enemy with Expose, Bad Batch allies remove 50% Turn Meter from that enemy, doubled for Droid and Separatist enemies (excludes raid bosses and galactic legends), which can't be evaded or resisted." At least 2 GLs are already immune to TM either completely or to some degree and they are routinely adding (excludes raid bosses and GLs) to new kits these days. Seems to be the new canon for CG so they don't get a bazillion "WHY MY SKILL NO WORK ON THIS TOON" posts.

If you are stealthed, at least you cant be countered.

No 1 stands out more though.

Next Thursday, Presumably.

This didn’t age well.

Dev insight is next week according to Crumb
We are also getting another character reveal next week, so we might get both dev insights on thursday next week
If you are stealthed, at least you cant be countered.
