New Assault battles?
Can’t remember if CG ever said anything on this topic. Will there ever be new assault battles? I feel like making more would not be a hard task. Different map, different characters, 1 million speed, ect. Not a huge request but just more curious if they said anything about it.

Scoundrels aren’t getting an AB because they’ve got so many others. GR and Res have GLs.
Places of power is First Order and Sith, Empire has one too.
I have to imagine it's a new one, or otherwise there wouldn't be incentive to get them. I just wonder what the second faction will be or if they'll do away with that concept.
That's a pretty big chunk of the playable roster that could be used for a new Assault Battle if they wanted to make one
Why do so many people mention "replacing" phoenix with another faction? Yeah I get that they suck, but just because you don't like them.... how about instead, just "ADDING" another faction? Why take away the AB from that poor soul who R9ed his/her Phoenix squad?
Jokes aside, R7 Phoenix can do CT1.
Pretty sure they meant CT1 of S&S.
Just don't be surprised when the new one doesn't increase the number of AB's that are run throughout the year and ends up just causing people without Inquisitors to get less stuff.
I like Phoenix- fond memories of them being my first good arena team. But it's strange that they aren't capable of doing very well in the challenge tiers of their assault battle. I think this was the longest one before someone finally beat CT3 with an NS team. So I'm just suggesting that if we're not getting a new assault battle, and phoenix aren't getting changed so they can actually complete more of the tiers, they would be a good candidate for a replacement.
But you're right- adding a faction instead of replacing would be a better choice for those who have reliced their phoenix. Interesting stats- swgoh.gg shows there are 3 R9 Hera's, 4 R9 Ezra's, 2 R9 Kanan's, 1 R9 Zeb, 1 R9 Chopper, and 2 R9 Sabine's.
But even at high relic, how far can phoenix get in AB?
if they can't even 3* CT1 at r7 they're not managing CT2 or 3. Even at r9
Oh I always expect the worst. It is CG after all.
That was before Challenge Tiers, of course. I sure hope they come back, soon, except unless they put in some sort of Expose Immunity the challenge will just be trivialized again. 🤷🏼♂️
If I were a gambling man I would bet on this. We need to be punished for not liking the new crappy characters.
I'm not saying I like it, but my guess would be Mandalorians OR some other new (or previously irrelevant) faction relating to the new Kenobi show -- the most obvious being a revitalized Tusken squad.
i'm not saying this is what's going to happen. I've been wrong too many times for that. But it's certainly a plausible working theory.
I'm still holding out for a new Conquest release of the mother of A'Sharad Hett, then a Tusken legendary event granting Sharad Hett (A'Sharad Hett's dad), then a hero's journey to get A'Sharad Hett then an Epic Confrontation to get Darth Krayt (A'Sharad Hett after he falls to the dark side).
The release of all these toons would take a while, which would encourage people to do the battle with Inquisitorious, but the powers of the new Tusken squad under Darth Krayt's leadership could be tailored for beating CT3 of the new Assault Battle, and thus encourage even folks with Grand Inquisitor to pursue the Tuskens. (Or, well, a few rewards once a month isn't necessarily enough to make someone pursue a whole faction, but it would be at least a bit of extra reward granted to those who collect all the Tuskens.
I did, but seeing Phoenix achieve is always nice.
They are goofy fighters, but excellent pilots
