This was a fantastic video. Super informative and thoughtful. My vote is for calling the Biggs-Wedge combo 'Big Wedge' over 'Wiggs'. It makes them sound like they've got a set of truck nuts on their X-Wings and I'm all for that. I am definitely still calling it the Toxic Leia Comp though as it is really funny. You are right, of course, that the nonsense Datacrons are the problem.
7:53 Both wedge and Briggs are needed for JML at R3 not higher. I know because I am farming for JML - few relic levels and 300/200 kyros for Mon Mothma to go Thanks for video - something to keep in mind for future
This is a smart pivot. CLS may not be the new hawtness, it's still a great counter team. Btw, I just got Raven's Claw to 7* on both of my accounts and both accounts got decisive wins with RC, MF, and Y-Wing, with Phantom II and Ghost in reserve. Nice Ferris Bueller reference too.
Happy holidays to you! I wonder if after your travels / holidays you might return to this strategy in a new video and give a brief breakdown of the ideal mods, turn order, kill order, or any other tidbits of insight that might help teach others to master this counter. I’ve tried and faltered with the r3 pilots but I’m going to start boosting their levels immediately. (Side benefit is that we do get to use wedge in raid)
Yep! The loop is great, especially if you have an out (enemy without the retribution) so you take as many turns as you can, then shoot someone else, heal, and repeat :)
@thegerbil23 something I'll do when I get my leia, but that won't be till later next year, sadly. I'm about to get Rey from the packs and soon then I still want lv before her.
Say you do make the Leia and Han team. Also you make that team Akbar in your last video. Would Cls lead with Old Ben, Star killer, mara Jade, and Darth talon be a good usable team?
I'm not real knowledgable on the StarKiller team, but I am exploring it cause I'm considering adding CLS to it. But Starkiller under CLS, I don't know... never thought of that. I'll ponder it. I don't think it would be as good as Palp lead, SK, MJ, CLS, Old Ben (or Juhani).
I mean, you kinda have to look at it from his perspective. Some of the people he goes up against in GAC have disgusting amounts of Defense, some went to even 300% from what I saw, add the 75% reduction, your attacks are essentially wet noodles and toy guns compared to the opponents, plus if Drogan gets Guard, you're screwed even more because you can't stun or critically hit him, sorry if I'm mean or came across it as such, but it was just a thought and I wanted to share it with others who felt the same...
Well I tried it multiple times in arena and it doesn’t come close to working. Can’t get a single kill and both wedge and Biggs are r7. So….not “100%”. Sure Biggs gets a ton of turns, but it supercharged leias ult.
at no point do you mention your relic levels. I think that is a critically important piece of information as I've tried this a couple of times and biggs has been blow away
i must have missed it. I watched 3 times and missed any mention of their relics. And yes, i'm beyond r3. But not approaching r7/r6. Will work on that and try again
Ok, I could be wrong. I discuss relics at about 07:30 where I incorrectly recalls that Wedge had to be R6 for a GL. So my bad I remembered wrong. With that, my Relics are Leia 9, Dragon 8, R2 9, Wedge 6, Biggs 7. Also, I do show my mods which were total crap for Wedge and Biggs. I've been talking with a few people on Discord who are trying this and they have modded Biggs for crazy health and they said it's amazing, winning with ease, so I know it's not just me. @@cxs293
I hate the term Toxic Leia, but because I think the word Toxic is thrown around way too much for things not even remotely close to "toxic". The word is overused and misused.
It was a comment about the content of the video. He talked about how he didn't like the term Toxic Leia and I decided to share another reason to not like the term along with the one Gerbil mentioned. It had nothing to do with the title.@@pieeater420fromnewknightso2
Seems like theorycrafting is becoming a lost art and you're one of the best still doing it. Keep it up and your channel will be huge 🙂. Thanks!
Thank you so much! I really appreciate the kind feedback.

Big brain stuff here. Well done Gerbil!
Not you magically disappearing from the camera 😂 great video and I love your whole way going and informative vibe too
that was great, thxs for that info!

Awesome sauce, thanks for the clarification. I knew they were somewhere, was not sure. :)

Haha!! Good job on the Claw, it's so much better than people realize.

also I don't remember there was a video on isc and gar bc if you add Vader its even better
Unlocked Leia yesterday. Might try this
It definitely sounds like any health steal datacron and now survivability, it'll help biggs survive and keep doing the loop.
Yep! The loop is great, especially if you have an out (enemy without the retribution) so you take as many turns as you can, then shoot someone else, heal, and repeat :)
@thegerbil23 something I'll do when I get my leia, but that won't be till later next year, sadly. I'm about to get Rey from the packs and soon then I still want lv before her.
Good for you! Farm / play what you like, don't just chase the meta :)
Which datacron are you running? Thanks!
Wiggs and Bigs is awesome!!
I use leia, drogan, R2, chewpio and baze kills all leia comps and all the other GL’s and it’s decent on defense too
Love it! Baze does work well with GL Leia, I just can't bring myself to gear him knowing he's not essential or a pilot :(
I just pushed my baze g13 r5 for this gac lock and placed him with leia on defense so hoping it can hold up.
You talk about mods for Biggs, what do you recommend for Wedge? Same, all health?
Health sets with offense secondaries. The purpose for Wedge is to survive and assist. :) maybe a Crit Damage triangle and Offense cross.
Should I aim for R7 or will R5 do? As well, speed arrows or 4x protection?
Also, all health on both or should I go with an offence set on moustache guy?
Amazing

Ya I ponder it too. I don't have palp geared up so I wonder if synergy with Old Ben under Cls lead would be worth it
when you realize you can beat Gls with wedge and biggs my lord is that legal
I will never like datacrons
I will never like the enemies’ datacrons. I will always like my own 🙃
@@christhetanman2639 Lol I just don't bother much, I have gotten a few good ones but I don't go out of my way to do so.
So how would you mod Biggs?
Ahnaldt really need to see this, he’s been getting waaaayyy to angry at leia and it’s getting a little annoying
I mean, you kinda have to look at it from his perspective. Some of the people he goes up against in GAC have disgusting amounts of Defense, some went to even 300% from what I saw, add the 75% reduction, your attacks are essentially wet noodles and toy guns compared to the opponents, plus if Drogan gets Guard, you're screwed even more because you can't stun or critically hit him, sorry if I'm mean or came across it as such, but it was just a thought and I wanted to share it with others who felt the same...
Plus I like your pfp... :)
The challenge is consistently beating Leia on defense with something else. Leia mirror matches itself aren't that hard
Toxic Leia for life way easier to say lol 😂
Amazing! How do you think this would fare on defence?
Not so sure, to go D, I’d make sure to mod Biggs for an insane amount of health and defense if possible.
Also on D, Biggs might not hit the same person over and over to kill them in a retribution / TM loop.
Well I tried it multiple times in arena and it doesn’t come close to working. Can’t get a single kill and both wedge and Biggs are r7. So….not “100%”. Sure Biggs gets a ton of turns, but it supercharged leias ult.
Mind sharing your ally code and I can check your mods? It’s that or strategy. And what is your Leia d Drogan relic level?
at no point do you mention your relic levels. I think that is a critically important piece of information as I've tried this a couple of times and biggs has been blow away
Actually I do, Biggs is R7, Wedge is R6. I admit that is hard for many people to do, but if you are chasing JML, you will have them at R3 already.
i must have missed it. I watched 3 times and missed any mention of their relics. And yes, i'm beyond r3. But not approaching r7/r6. Will work on that and try again

I would have to say you complaining about a word in the title and not commenting on the content could be seen as toxic lol.

Leia is not the problem? Of course she is. Mary-Sue characters are always THE problem. Toxic is a fitting descriptor.
Agree to disagree. Once Drogan’s Kim is gone, she will be easily defeated by a lot of GLs, perhaps some Jin-GLs too.
