Hi here ! I'm new here (proof that the game will never die ahah) and I've got a question : does a banlist of too OP character exists (I know V-sets exists) ?

And more :
Does a banlist for the only WOTC's sets exists ?
Does a banlist for all sets (WOTC+V-Set) exists ?

Thx for answer,
May the Force be with you all !

PS : sorry for appoximativ english

To answer your questions more directly... nothing is banned right now except Admiral Daala.

There are numerous minor errata for cards that WotC posted:
https://www.swmgamers.com/PDF/Rules/Sta ... _Final.pdf

But basically none of the WotC errata are for balance. Just fixing typos and retroactively making old cards fit new naming formats, etc.

In the balance committee thread I posted, you'll see that several cards have received changes that nerf them enough that they might as well be banned, but they're all still legal other than Daala. They're all V-set pieces.

The only decisions from the Balance Committee that affect WotC pieces are:
* ruling on affecting activations like Dodonna (must have line of sight to an enemy),
* give Diminutive to Mouse Droids,
* Ysalamiri goes back to its older WotC definition (it had a change midway through WotC days),
* Rapport cannot reduce a character's cost below 3. (Original rulebook says below 1.)
* and ghosts are considered non-living.

I think General Obi-Wan Kenobi was banned briefly before getting nerfed with an errata. He went back to using the stat block printed on his card either right before or shortly after the game was discontinued. No other piece was banned or got errata for balance reasons.
