Queen Amidala FINALLY Unlocked! - 7 Star Gameplay Initial Review - Deadly Defense?

[@DatOneRadDad]

I enjoy these initial review videos, its a good reminder of where teams and toons started and where they end up 1 or 2 years later. I can't wait to see how our Queen grows!

[@conwarlock3537]

Her countering Jabba might be preventable with Boba though. He can ignore taunt and make use of all those buffs.

[@zacharylamoreux8053]

Hopefully in the next couple of years we can get some Attack of the Clones characters like a teenage anakin

Padawan Anakin 👀

[@Foxyklan123]

If we get Captain Panaka as a unit sometime in the future then i could see her being able to take on the tougher teams, but even still she can take teams like GAS and Malgus making her a strong unit.

I’m really glad we got a new defensive unit.

[@JasperJunior94]

My plan for 3v3 defence is with Padmé and R2 with the Padmé datacron and stack that protection up. 🤞

[@matthewbeland8443]

I’m doing Queen, Padme + DC, and Ahsoka. Let’s see how it goes and report back lol.

[@galacticfirefly6060]

Got the Fury-class interceptor yesterday which is the final requirement i needed for Leviathan And I started farming tickets for SLKR too yesterday. 2 amazing unlocks coming next month 😊 LLTKE!

[@WonderGamer1999]

I’ve noticed that lately a lot of big units have had themselves, and two primary units that are critical to the team, then the last two are flexible. I think this is CG subtly building teams that function in 5v5 then already have their 3v3 counterpart team by just taking those 2 along with the main unit. I think this is a great thing because it doesn’t feel like I’m breaking apart a team for 3v3. For reference the biggest examples I can think of are Leia with Drogan and R2, Aphra with BT and Trip, Amidala with MQJ and POK.

[@Terminator7652]

Ahnald’s voice gotta the best one I hear every day

[@SlippySteveUK]

Neat, just finished watching the stream, and now I get the final opinion

[@lilinu060]

For those who aren’t excited about potentially taking C3P0 away from CLS if you don’t have Leia yet Drogan replaces C3P0 pretty well and i feel enhances the team. He works great with CLS until you get Leia

[@universitariomates]

Hey Ahnald! Those mod reccomendations help so much and it´s great seeing them being added to the spreadsheet for longevity! Could you consider adding the older ones that you haven´t added yet like the Bo team? Right now it´s a bit messy having to jump from video to video looking for the right spot

[@SatchaDahmi]

I love these first look videos but it would be a really interesting series to do a 6 month followup for each of these. Basically to go back and say this info still holds up or modding has changed to this and you can say like no longer defense viable. could even do a team follow up instead of a video for each char release, you could do like a: "Gungans 6 months and counting" to check in what counters are and what the team is countering.

[@dark3654]

Lord vader giving ahnald a side eye when he doesn't go up from there 😂

[@itsyaboi9950]

SLKR might not be possible at all, if Sith Trooper is in the team even if you daze him they will most likely cleanse it off, and even if he isn't present at least KRU or FOST (FOST also has a 50% chance to call a random ally to assist when he uses an ability) will be and they will trigger her unique when they counter attack (unless counter-attacks dont count as attacking out of turn if we take that stupid GC modifier which doesn't let you get bonus TM or attack out of turn as an example because you can counter-attack with that modifier) and lastly Hux also has the mass assist. TL;DR: The SLKR team has way too many attacks out of turn which trigger Qadme's lead which in turn triggers SLKR's unique and makes the whole team team get extremely tanky way too fast and judging from the stream, the Qadme team doesn't have a lot of damage.

[@jalengatton]

Her Omicron does quite a lot, especially with the Kenobi Datacron (and her own respective Datacron next set likely) so I think once we get into Grand Arena this team could be a monster. At worst like a GAC level DTMG, in both 3v3 and 5v5, which honestly is pretty good still

[@Zimmy369]

I kinda doubt she gets her own datacron next season. I know they normally do that but I think the obi-wan datacron is her datacron. I don’t see them doing galactic republic back to back and she doesn’t have any other tags. It’s already kinda weird they have jedi and galactic republic going at the same time having a season with two GR datacron sets would just be weird lol

[@lordofhunger5175]

@@Zimmy369 Yeah they’re testing ways to monetize datacrons for new characters, no way they’re giving her one you can get for free next set lol

[@cheekylemon9441]

Praying the next conquest unit is a ship for the new capital ship

[@darthdoco]

*insert beautiful thoughts* Thanks for the info!

[@arminsahby2022]

Luminara s unique ability gives whole team heal over time for any other type of buffs which works without omicron and its great with grand master yoda so no omi just unique ability will carry

[@arminsahby2022]

@AhnaldT101

[@matthewsharpe393]

If she can be a consistent counter to LV and jabba in GAC with a 3* Master qui gon and no datacrons, then I'll be happy since I don't have fennec

[@zombefyer2.047]

If we get Captain Panaka and Sabe to complement Queen Amidala, then that should lead to a new faction: Royal Naboo

[@L_Eres]

I feel like QuAla's team is strictly defensive... If player is not into patiently scratching rock with water

[@AhnaldT101]

Yeah reminds me of using Cere pre-Malicos. Was sort of snoozy on offense.

[@koolmonkey55]

[@BLP04]

2:27 I just noticed that there’s some JMK zetas missing on the chart

[@leftyfourguns]

This team definitely needs to be rounded out by Panaka and Lil' Anni with his Naboo Starfighter

[@Beagle70445]

Her lifter character will be Senator Bail Organa.

[@tungle1991]

Quadme belongs to defense, I wouldn't bother using her on offense even with Poncho Qui Gon and Padawan Obiwan I expect Quadme can deal with LV in gac

[@Səv]

Queen Amidala throws sand at Lord Vader. Match over.

[@lightninglord488]

I don't think Qadme can defeat LV in GAC, sure the DOTs won't stick, but Qadme's team deals so little damage that it would be really hard to kill anyone, and LV will ramp up faster due to the lack of kills

[@walkingonehd9869]

Feeling like they need a "Young Ani" type character for the squad. Something like completely untargetable but gets weaker when you lose units kinda like a 3po but non-legendary.

[@sithborg_5847]

Its CUP's time to shine

Ive also been beating Leia in my squad arena testing. QA, MQG, POW, Snips, GMY

[@thecarre3770]

[@SocknGamers]

I really wish they would rework R2 with galactic republic. Make him grant additional stacks of any stackable buff when Galactic republic allies gain them (Not rebel or resistance because, you know.). He was Queen Padme's droid first and it would be great if he was actually in the line up.

[@crackingpenny3186]

First padme took 3p0 from CLS, then CLS took him back, and now padme wants him again lol. Its like a never ending tug of war.

[@YamiYugi13]

Think of it this way c3p0 was used by his creator’s wife than son than wife lol

[@dark4ce263]

now imagine CG would be able to get their event fixed and dont make general grievous unkillable...

[@michaelmcpherson915]

What's the idea behind 3PO in the team? One of his core benefits is reducing cooldowns which can't be done with QA

[@cadetstaff5]

i know a small amount of his kit would become irrelevant, but what if you put jar jar in there as a 'wild card' youd get a few debuffs and such....including the deathmark. Phantom menace the team. queen, padawan obi, master qui gon, jar jar and a R2 or something

as someone who does not have JMK or a qui gon omicron activated but will have Qadme next conquest cycle I currently run CATme so I'll be putting CAT aside and running QA, padme, anakin, ahsoka, and GK, but I'm also currently gearing up BB for marauder so i'm wondering if I can run all 4 BB under QA lead.

[@Zimmy369]

I still think luminara might be able to slot in here. When it says they expire does that mean they trigger and will heal the team? If so I guess that’s not terrible. Mainly her handing out more hots and pots could be useful. Idk I guess we’ll have to see

[@doffie_doff]

How do you think Bounty Hunters will do against her on defence? I suspect she will disappear from defence pretty fast

[@cuttlefish6839]

You would need to fast contract with aura and need zam omni but yeah you can instant kill her.

[@micahschuler3562]

If you use luminara, you can't use GMY or c3p0 either

[@fluxrono1811]

I still need to know... Omi padme vs darth vader lead. Padme cleanses and turns dots into healing over time, Vader reapplied dots when they are removed. Does padme get infinite heals?

Luminara will be in there. Relic Master Qui gon, his mastery is CA, give him a CA Arrow and you good.

[@duggix2362]

On the topic of Luminara Omi, as long as you don't use GMY or C-3PO, and dont Omi Qadmes lead it works. If you dont have lead Omi, there is no prot up. Prot over time and prot up are two different effects, feel like you kinda have misunderstood this. @Ahnaldt101 Edit: Nvm, when Master Qui-Gon is crit, he passes Prot up around, missed that, my mistake.
