Don’t we have a week off before 3v3? And this video came out right after teams locked for the final battle of 5v5… if by perfect you mean the most time away from using the guide then you’d be correct😂
At least SLKR has a team built up around him. Wait until you get Rey. Many light side allies work with her but you need Ben Solo to make it outstanding.
Great content Calvin. You’ve taken the mantle from all the past creators who have gone by the way side or currently. You’re part of the big 4 including Ahnald Xaereth Nooch
Very nice. I’ve not encountered a Rey comp with GK in it. It sounds very annoying. I’m just now getting baby Cal geared up so this might be a good comp for me next time 5v5 comes around. I don’t have Jedi Knight Cal so I like to use Bastilla in his place with that same comp and I like it quite a bit. Her ability block on basic is useful to be able to control the team while wiping out the LV teams with JML’s special lead ability (I’m going to miss my 98% protection datacron that expires in a couple of days :( ) Thanks for sharing!!
We might actually already have that ready. Believe it's in this video ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-oBcnCkwznS8.htmlsi=foPlBp0VVBjYywIT
No doubt that Rey comp is a beast, but the problem with it is that it hurts other really good teams. As someone without all the GLs, I need as many good teams as I can get. If that means that a few teams are not quite as strong as they could be, so be it. Cere/Malicos/Cal is a top non-GL team both on offense and defense. It pretty much requires a GL to beat it on defense and can beat some GLs on offense. I used it regularly last season to beat LV. It may lose a little bit of viability with the expiration of the UFU datacrons, but should still be really good. And GK is important for JMK, Padme, or Jedi squads. Personally, I found the toughest Rey squad to beat was Rey/Ben/JTR/50RT/L3.
Hey Calvin, can we PLEASE get a video on the current GLs and their PVP rankings/who counters who etc. I know it’s very difficult with DCs. I feel like that would be very helpful - this video is very helpful also, thank you!
There is a more complex team I use with SEE to counter JMK that makes use of the armorer, WAT, Thrawn and SET. It's a pretty solid comp to most jmk squads as long as you have Thrawn and Armorer's speeds set up correctly
We need a video discussing deflection in depth. Mainly who does special dmg so what counters most likely will no longer working what teams will lots of deflection mess up?
Songeta just had to deal with a really nasty SLKR team the other day. Reva lead, GI, seventh sister, malicose, and SLKR. He tried Leia on it and wasn’t even close.
I don't know about GK for the rey team, because it means giving up your best tank for JMK. If you dont have JMK, then fair enough, or if you're in 3v3 or otherwise have another decent option, then again i think thats fine. I do realise he is very irritating.
Playing mace as the lone tank with jmk on defense makes them extremely vulnerable to mirrors. All you have to do is open with the cooldown reduction on cat while targeting mace. Ahsoka clips him on the assist and the way his kit works he stops taunting and you're free to instakill their cat on your second turn. If you're faster, you can get away with preventing their instakill entirely. Also, just fyi, I've been disagreeing with you some lately, but it needs to be said that I love your channel. One of the best swgoh channels on RU-vid right now. If there wasn't some debate to be had it wouldn't be as much fun.
The mirror is impossible to stop from a comp perspective so I'm not too worried about it. I always enjoy your comments, you're respectful and come from a place of conversation rather than an argument. Lol I do appreciate the clarity though 😅
@CalvinAwesome Thats probably true. Im glad thats how it comes off, because thats certainly the intention. As someone trying to break into content creation a little bit, I appreciate what you do. It's a lot of work and the experience of the game and the community wouldn't be nearly as fun without it.
I've been doing rey with Ben, jtr, holdo, and barris. I think replacing holdo with cal as soon as my cal is ready. Been on the fence about whether or not they need a taunting tank, but I think cal makes up for it. With the stacking defensecron, they and my zorii didn't go down this whole season. Won me 3 for 3 this last round
Hey Calvin, I have a question. If you could tier, in order of difficulty in facing a Rey team on defense. 1. Fast Rey, Fast Ben 2. Fast Rey, Slow Ben 3. Slow Rey, Fast Ben 4. Slow Rey, Slow Ben.
Would Moff Gideon not fit with Lord Vader? Empire, demoralized is a significant reduction in damage, an armor shred, ... every 4 'basics' an AoE daze,.. and the option to remove turn meter. (granted, might backfire if enemy is immune to it.. silly AI)
If you're going for best possible comp, wouldn't leia have kanan? I understand that cannibalizes phoenix, but it's been done with the inquisitors for lv
@CalvinAwesome fair call. Maybe because I don't have baze but I've found ob + kanan super tough to deal with from when I'm attacking Baze is great too, for sure. Thanks for replying. Always love your content. Keep it up! 👍
Thanks CA, I have tried different comps for Leia, I know Han & Chewie were a hot commodity, is Baze & Old Ben the best line up defensively or overall? Ive used Capn Rex & Chewpio & that does well for me too. 🤔 Ive also seen Mon Motha or Raddus in the line up too.
I would advise against MM as she doesn't add much. Crex is actually really nice for a few counters due to the TD and daze. can maybe run crex and OB if you don't have pho?
@@CalvinAwesome What a pity! I'm 20 fragments away from unlocking CAT and I already had all the mods and equipment ready to upgrade her directly to R5 XD I will have to change plans and put CAT in another team :P Thanks for the tip Calvin!!
@@ThrashMatterhonestly I use gas vs every single rey comp I see. If there is no sortie or cat (cat is much harder to beat than sortie though) I beat it even with cal it's not that hard. Factor in though that I went for lv so I have echo and rex to r7 and fives, gas and arc tk r8 so not everyone will have such a strong gas team Edit: I haven't really fought a rey with a great datacron (like full defense) and I am guessing that might completely shut down gas
Haven‘t found a 5v5 rey comp normal full fo slkr can’t beat. Of course it’s always horrible banners but in 5v5 it always gets the job done. 3v3 can be tricky of course
oh, I hear you. I also have protection on him but since the drogancron is gone, he seems to die more often than not and was thining health% would fare better @@CalvinAwesome
Hi, just unlocked GL Leia, would MonM be good in her team or should I swap her with Ben? Got the LSB so Ben is higher is Relic levels anyway :) Thanks in advance
@@CalvinAwesome Awesome. I have my R8 Leia full hp mod too with hp% arrow. Her speed is pretty bad 467...do you mind sharing your speed? So I have a rough target to hit? There isn't many useful Leia videos out there so I'm looking for more info for her and her teams
Is Malicos worth using on an SLKR team at all? I have yet to farm Cere or Cal Kestis yet, but I'll be unlocking Malicos soon and don't have a place to put him.
I disagree with the slkr squad u picked.. have u seen Reva lead, malacos, slkr, grand inquisitor and a fifth? Team is nuts! I think jabba is only known counter so far
@@CalvinAwesome okay that's cool, I'd rather use Rey JT anyway as have her at R7 compared to my Relic 5 Bariss. I've just seen other RU-vidrs list Bariss instead of Rey JT but if I'm honest I kind of listen to you and get results so trust your word over theirs. Thanks again bud 🔥🔥
Question-For rey : what if I swap obi wan with barris (jmk team feels weak without him my mace is R5 and I feel oQGJ needs a tank to get value and it s where I have him placed. I geared barris from g12 to r3 maybe r5 soon specially for the rey team (instead of GK)
I’ve asked about empire squad with lord Vader before and now I’m wondering which ones should I use? I don’t have maul and inquisitors and I’m planning to do executor so I will have Darth Vader and Piett already upgraded
@@CalvinAwesome arent DTMGs omis all about him being with Remnants? Edit: nevermind, they arent. His Special Omi looks Disgusting with LV and his Unique is probably also pretty good, the extra Insight to get Maul back more often looks great
JMK, hey when using JMK on offense in a mirror match against himself, just give him the worst Republic tank you have at relic. The tan is going to die before his first turn anyway and you save Mace Windu for something else. I R3 relic'ed Plo Kloon just for his ship and this sacrifice.
I use g7 Cwc for this, really doesn’t matter as long as it’s a tank unless SOMEHOW they have someone else faster than cat but that should never be the case
Isn't the third sister/gi/7sister/malicos/slkr comp better? On defence it is able to hold both against leia and jmk and the only good way to counter it is using jabba, which most people throw at leia right now
