He can use Sorusu style mastery on ALL attack, Gives +4 Atk and Def, has mettle (whick stacks) Master of the force 2 for the mettle (needs 2 to fail soresu on a critical save) and good stats, all for 55 points

The game Devoloved into 2 types of teams, GOWK teams, and Anti-GOWk teams. That how bad it got

That's funny.
You said you would've used him ALL the time.
And GM Yoda is the NEW GOWK.

The funny thing is, most people agree that Grandmaster Flash, err, Yoda, is a solid character worthy of play. For the same cost, GOWK's commander effect was 33% better (and also superior overall due to the wording -- even if you are a mile away from GOWK, as long as an Ugnaught or mouse droid is nearby you were fine), and he had Soresu and mettle. Clearly he was a bit too much.

I think his design was overambitious.

After all, you must power "creep" and not power "leap" when creating a character. :)

Why would anyone whine about Grand Master Yoda?... Check the stats out for yourself, he's strong but fragile without the MOTF2, and most likely be taken advantage by multiple units. It's far different than not taken hits from anywhere and still make saves from 11, to 7, to 3 and again, no damage if force points were available. And since the CE is "rangeless"... it's no wonder why this piece is the most talked about character in the game

When GOWK is banned, Republic goes from absolute top to on par with the other factions. I think what a lot of people are forgetting is that there have been many other competitive options with Republic before GOWK. Gungans are still super strong. People just haven't been playing them because people tend to play newer pieces. Jedi swap, especially with all the repulse that is around is still great. There are quite a few good Kota squads that get another chance with GOWK gone.
