Today on my way to 1st I fought:
1 AA
1 Dooku
1 Old Ben
and 2 Phasma lead teams. Also I love that some ppl use han and some rg (50/ 50). I mean okay rey and qgj are in 90% of the teams but well at least we have diversity.
Amazing job - keep it up
three months ago all leads were qgj or dooku. And yes i made first on a dec shard - cba if ppl believe me or not just hate me

Is not as bad as before Dooku Dooku Dooku (dookcant handle him anymore)
Less than half Dooku old Ben. This is the most diverse leaders the game has ever had.
The Rey RG QG is the real lack of diversity in remainder of the team. Alternatives to RG and QG are needed
People fail to realize how hard it would be to make every leader ability in game as OP as ben or aa.
There will always be the best team in games like this, period.
Agreed though RG/Rey is on near all teams.
I do have 1 Teebo lead and one Chief Chirpa lead in top 40
That's just people who uploaded their info on swgoh.gg. On my server it's well over half CD and OB lead in the top 100. I can't go through 5 arena matches without fighting at least one of them since they're often the only options I have to gain enough rank. If anything I've seen an increase in dodge leads.
It's super lazy but w/e, the devs aren't really brainiacs, considering all the bugs/flaws and super bad decisions.
Arena is no fun and evasion leader teams are irritating, d-umb and lazy.
Perhaps with 4 months of evasion led teams, it's time to boost other toons again instead of nerfing.
Wishful thinking I know...
Shards follow themselves so their is less diversity per shard then in the whole game. If you don't visit the forum you are going to only see teams on your shard. So when copying best teams you copy the best rw you face.
I'm on a Phasma shard where about 75% of the top 20 are her.
wise words !
I wish mine would switch to Phasma. I freakin jump on a Phasma team when I see it. It's like a red flag. "Look, you can hit us and win".
Otherwise it's dodge, dodge, dodge.
I'm going to test a full Empire with either Vader or Tarkin lead this week, once I promote Stormtrooper, because, why not!
This is exactly right. Although I am the only ackbar leader in the top 50 of my shard. Even though I hold on defense and beat all other teams with protection left on RG, I am surprised others are copying my team. that said, Rex, Dooku, Old Ben, Phasma, Ackbar are all legit leaders. Some teams would be good regardless of the leader. Leia, Rey, Aayla, RG + any of those leaders I mentioned would be competitive and top tier. I would like to see more diversity in the teams but leader diversity is decent.
How is this any different then when we had Dooku, QGJ, Poggle, or Phasma leads?
As for the current leads:
Dooku is disappearing snice his nerf.
AA is awesome, but those teams are actually easy to beat so this will not go far.
OB1 and Rex are the primary leads out there and what I am seeing more and more of. If it continues, then there are actually less diverse leaders. What you are seeing is just a meta change from 1 group of leaders to a new one.
Last I looked it was about 42% of leads where Evasion leaders (Old Ben or Dooku). If you look at the base mechanic, "Evasion", 42% is not diverse. Think about all of the characters in this game and 42% of all arena squads are represented by two of those characters, two.
My server is all about Dooku and Phasma at least, few Old Ben and Lumi leads but definitely more Dooku leads than I care to see.
I think it's the next generation of Prius with a new line of pastel paints to choose from.
