I realize this game is in its infancy, and the meta will change before too long (especially with updates), but I would like to gather as much data as possible. I would hope EA is paying close attention to this, but for the sake of this discussion, let us make two groups.
One lvl 35-50, and the other lvl 50+. Try to leave feedback only if you have played at least 20 matches in midtier or endtier or both. If we keep posts concise, it will help us gather data more efficiently.
I can only speak for midgame.
EXAMPLE:
lvl 42, Burst AOE Comps. I seem to always see Bariss, Kylo and Sidious.

Then usually daka,dooku,ig88 or 86
This is top 20
Same here, but sometimes they replace Phasma with Dooku. The difference between the two groups is the stars of the characters. lvl30-50 you can see mostly 3* Phasma but once you've reached 50 and above you see 4-5* Dookus, 7* Phasamas etc.
Teamwise is more varied.
Sid and Lumi is in 95% of teams.
Better teams are using high star daka
Dooku still very common
JC or Barriss still frequent
Ig 88 or 86 are common.
Phasma made a few appearences not as leader
Poggle is being used more recently
Boba or fives feature in many teams.
vader is uncommonly seen
Jedis other than the healers seem to be out of fashion
have not seen many kylos yet
tanks don't seem that common in the top at the moment.
Ive found playing against teams that use control a lot to be the most difficult. e.g phasma with speed debuff, bonus attacks, daka with multi stuns, aoe ability block attacks such as ig88s or bobas. The common cookie cutter teams using the usual sid, lumi, boba/fives, JC/barris, Dooku teams are very easy to fight now (practice i guess)
You then have level 50 up to maybe two weeks after most have hit level 60 where some customization of the squads has begun but you still see alot of the same characters as earlier but at a high star count.
Endgame meta starts when most of the top has gotten their second set of characters to a high level. You often don't see that many healers anymore and generally more synergy in the squads.
Currently the trend seems to be:
Robots for strong aoe-attack (IG-86, IG-88, Poggle etc)
Strong single-target burst (FOTP, Qui-Gon, Leia often seen with a Phasma as leader etc)
Debuff team (Sidious, Vader, Kylo with support)
Single-target hybrid (Phasma, Sidious, Kylo, Luminara etc)
Hey that's me! lol. Or at least will be in a month and a half or however long it'll take to build...
Ya, my team is similar. I just swaped chewie and JC for boba and bariss
In nearly all teams: JC, Chewy, Phasma
In most teams: Sid, Lumi, Barriss, Poe
In some teams: Dooku, Jawa, Daka, Luke, Leia, Asajj, Savage, IG88.
