Foresight
A buff in SWGOH that grants 100% evasion against the next incoming attack and prevents most negative status effects from landing. Foresight is a signature mechanic of Jedi-themed kits and one of the strongest single-stack buffs in the game.
Foresight is a buff that consumes itself to prevent the next attack against the character — the attack simply misses, dealing no damage and applying no effects. Multiple stacks of Foresight let a character evade multiple attacks in sequence. It also blocks most application of debuffs while active, making it both a defensive and an anti-control tool.
The mechanic was popularized by Jedi Knight Luke Skywalker, whose kit revolves around granting himself and allies Foresight stacks. Other characters with strong Foresight synergy include Rey (Jedi Training) — whose Resistance allies gain stacks under her lead — and Grand Master Yoda, who can grant Foresight via his Battle Meditation Special.
Counters to Foresight: abilities that "cannot be evaded" bypass the buff entirely (common in modern Galactic Legend kits), Dispel removes the buff before the attack lands, and area-of-effect (AoE) attacks consume only one stack per character — so spamming AoEs can strip Foresight faster than targeted damage.
In Grand Arena, a squad with stacked Foresight on the wrong characters can survive turns of focused damage that would otherwise wipe them. Smart attackers either Dispel-strip the buff first, use "cannot be evaded" abilities, or simply ignore the Foresight-stacked enemy and burn down softer targets first.

Stun
A control debuff in SWGOH that makes the target skip their next turn entirely — they cannot act, cannot use abilities, and Turn Meter does not progress while stunned. Stun is one of the most powerful single-target debuffs in the game.
Ability Block
A debuff in SWGOH that prevents the target from using Special abilities — they can only perform their basic attack while Ability Blocked. It does NOT skip their turn (unlike Stun), but neutralizes their key combat tools.
Dispel
A SWGOH effect that removes positive buffs from enemy characters. Dispel is the offensive counterpart to Cleanse and is critical for breaking through stacked defensive buffs like Foresight, Protection Up, or Tenacity Up.
