Who's better for Savage characters, Celeste Morne or Exar Kuhn
? I'm struggling on who to play with my Savage team. Thanks for the advice in advance..................................
PS
1. With Kuhn, once your based, you wont get momentum anymore unless you break away and take dmg, and against non-Jedi squads, no jedi-hunter bonus.
2. With Morne, she's cheaper to put more Savage characters on your team and you get the bonus against all characters, and regardless if you end you movement next to the enemy, or if you activate adjacent.
What do you guys think?

I've had more success with Celeste. Now, with Watto, you can slave any follower to give them a +4/+10 when they're more than 6 away from a commander. The new Talon Karrde gives Celeste herself a chance to drop 120 on an unactivated jedi up to 8 squares away. (Or even 14 if you utilize his commander effect.)
The Sith Wrangler and Malakili are great additions to use to make the damage stick.
More important than the choice between Exar and Celeste is how you play savages. Taking advantage of Watto's Slave ability can be a difference maker in games. Moving that character in and out of range of commanders depending on when you want to utilize savage requires some forethought and strategy. Dash is a great candidate for Watto's Slave Collar in a Celeste build.
I'm not sure if Celeste can be tier 1, though. I've run her in the Mystery Map tournament the last 2 years at GenCon and have been 2-2 each year. Back in 2010 I ran Exar in Mystery Map and also finished 2-2. They're both a lot of fun, and if you approach it with that in mind, I think you'll be happy with either choice.

I've ran Celeste a lot and think she is better for Savages. Consider putting wuher on your team. Your opponent either pays more for droid reinforcements or they bring in living which Celeste can then turn to Rakgouls. Ive had various amounts of success with Celeste. Most of it have probably come from my Stealth-N-Gouls or Fallen Angel squads. Look them up, their fun and pretty straight foward with how to play. I've yet to try Celeste with the new Talon Karde but it is an option to make Celeste even more scary.

But I agree that I prefer using Celeste when playing Savages.
