card of the week (11-17 nov): nexu (neutral)

It's really not hard to figure out that the 5 star cards are the best and most valuable. 

Card of the week is a new feature I've added in to highlight awesome lower value 3 or 4 star cards that you can consider for your formation. I help you pick out the best to plug in the gaps till you get your 5 stars ;)


The dust of the geonosian battle arena has settled for quite a bit.

Love it or hate it (depending on how lucky you were in getting them I guess), the battle arena animals were an interesting addition to the game.

The CAP cost of 16 is on the high side so it has to be a pretty good or special card to warrant usage after the event.

When I first saw the card stats of all the animals, I wanted Reek the most as it looked like a very good defensive card. 

Until I started to use all 3 in my formation...

I was surprised by the results! Nexu often lasted the longest (and takes down a few in the process) followed by Reek and then Acklay.

Now how is it that Nexu is outlasting the rest? Nexu is the perfect example of a glass cannon. Massive attack with very minimal defense.

But is it? Is Nexu really a glass cannon?


Because it's not really glass if you have trouble hitting it!

Take a look at it's Evasion stat. It's one of the highest at the moment (let's not compare with 5* jar jar shall we?) and that's what makes Nexu a really awesome card.

Nexu is what I call a gamble card (though id say the odds are stacked at least 60-40) in your favour. If it manages to avoid getting hit, it'll mow down your opponents real quick (even against 4 or 5* opponents) but if it does get hit it does go down pretty quick.

A 4 card evolve gives Nexu a massive 10,294 attack rating. Give Nexu a go and see how well it does!
