Only? Luke is 160, but has 6 black for attack. Not sure which is better, the rainbow or 6 black?

[TalkPolite 391]

Luke surges so he’s probably better. Crit 2 does help with that but, Obi seems to be very defensive compared to Luke. 

[JediPartisan 810]

At least he has MoTF 1.

And a training slot.

I just realized he doesn't have an attack surge beyond critical, which would make Luke's better. You're still not going to see more than 1 surge come up from a roll on average so it's not a big difference.

Soresru mastery is basically deflect except it works for guardian. Thats pretty cool. Critical 2 and impact 2 on the lightsaber gonna tear up armour. The dice on the saber aint too amazing though but they decent. Good upgrade slots too

More defensive than Luke, but that fits his lightsaber form compared to Luke's as well.  I like it.  

[KiraYamatoSF 866]

What does Critical do again?

Technically he does? Arguably Critical 2 is just a more limited version of Surge -> Crit.

It also works in melee, which deflect didn't.

I corrected myself for that already, but I agree with you.

[JediPartisan 810]

Why would you want Guardian 3 on Obi?

Ah, sorry for the ninja :-P.

Let’s you convert a surge to a crit. Great on units that don’t surge naturally.

So you can keep those non pierce immune clones alive. Pair that his mastery and it's Gold

[JediPartisan 810]

Also Luke has a ranged attack, but Obi needs Saber Throw. Obi seems a step down from Luke overall.

[thepopemobile100 977]

I wonder if anything else is going to get spoiled at the celebration?

Yeah but then you’re using a more expensive unit to protect a less expensive.

[JediPartisan 810]

Thanks for spoiling this TalkPolite!

MOTF 1 means he can spam Jedi Mind Trick and do a stupid amount of suppression, or get a dodge every turn to use his super deflect, or force push units around.

[KiraYamatoSF 866]

Hm, hard to say yet but I think Luke looks like a better choice. Though Obi is more defensive and can provide more support which can have uses.

Right, but the more expensive unit is immune to pierce, and can spend dodge tokens when using guardian to deflect back on the attacker. Seems good.

[TalkPolite 391]

And no prob. Someone else’s picture

[JediPartisan 810]

I can see Duck and Cover, Saber Throw, Force Reflexes and Improvised Orders (if he’s the only commander) on Obi, so his cost is going to rival Vader, if not surpass it.
