    • Enfys Nest (solo) as a counter to Rebels (CLS L)
      • reason: With the power creep and lineup changes, this causes a time-out situation. The CLS team will just stun your Nest until the match times out, essentially negating the purpose of attacking with her.

    • Jawas as a counter to Geonosians
    • Jedi (Revan L w/ Ahsoka and Shaak Ti) as a counter to Geonosians (GBA L w/ Poggle and GS) This is admittedly an outlier for both teams, but I thought it was worthy of adding since there is currently such little data for 3v3 battles
    • Imperial Troopers as a counter to Nightsisters (Asajj L)
    • Nightsisters (Asajj L w/ Old Daka and Zombie) as a counter to Rebels (CLS Trio)

  • removed the following 3v3 counters:
    • Imperial Troopers as a counter to Nightsisters (Talzin L)
      • reason: With no healing, Plague stacks up quickly and wipes the team within a few turns. Instead this team should be used for an Asajj led team.
  • made the following Discord changes:
    • added 3v3 and 5v5 channels
    • discontinued the welcome in the general-chat channel
  • updated counter descriptions for the following 5v5 counters:
    • Resistance (JTR L) as a counter to Rebels (CLS L)
      • reason: The strategy mentions R2-D2 as if he were in the main team, so I updated it to make it more explicit that he's a sub. Also, I've updated the name of the CLS team from Rebels (CLS Quad) to Rebels (CLS L) since there is strategy regarding the CLS as a duo of only CLS and Han, a trio when adding Chewy, and a quad when adding C-3PO.
