Today we have a very interesting character. This is
one way to make you partner a character with
another. Proxy has 120 HP, which really isnt too
bad, but the rest of his stats are a bit out of the
box. You don't play Proxy for his stats. You play
him for the stats he can copy.
His stats are horrendous, but he can copy the stats
of a melee character within 6 so long as ALL stats (ATK,
DEF and DAM) are equal to or higher than the stats
he is currently using. For your part, this is where
you pair him with the likes of Vader, Bane, Exar or
other beefy character. Then his 41 points seems
pretty good. Tyranus is also a good choice because
once you copy his stats, Tyranus can then give dark
inspiration to Proxy.
Proxy does have force. How this is explained in the
game is going to be interesting. The good is that he
has block, two attack rerolls, or moving two extra
squares twice. The downside is that he is a unique
droid, so he is immune to commander effects and cant
get any droid bonuses.
100pts: Outside of a dynamic Duo match, he wont cut
it here. Since you have to copy someone, you are
looking at pretty much a 2-4 man squad.
150pts: Here he can be played when paired with a
beat stick, but most times you are going to have a
very melee focused squad. he wont be a top piece,
but he can be fun.
200pts: This will be his best format. You can afford
the big beat with lots of support. While he has lots
of options, he wont be a great piece. Bane will be
most likely the best bet as you can get him to swing
for 30 DAM twice. That can be a ton of damage,
combined with Bane's Beef. I havent seen him make
the cut for top squads, but he can be a lot of fun
to try out.
