changing squad to sith's :(

I need change my current resistance squad to sith squad, unfortunatelly. Zeta Maul teams drives me crazy and Im sick of them because its the worse team for resistance. Day by day is hard to stay in top 20 so I need to fit to current meta. Here is my profile:
https://swgoh.gg/u/ziul/collection/

Can you advice me what direction should I go ?
I was wondering about Nihilus / Savage / EP / Dooku / ?
or Maul / Sith Assasin / Nihilus / EP / Savage

Right now I have these items from most uses:
40 zeta
11 x Mk 3 Carbanti Sensor Array
2 x Mk 5 A/KT Stun Gun
2 x Mk 3 Czerka Stun Cuffs

The shortest way is to get nihilus team I think.
I also have 120 GK shards and will unlock him in about 15 days.

I would be happy to hear some good opinion.

  • DN lead teams aren't good enough for a mature arena. This "Maul / Sith Assasin / Nihilus / EP / Savage" could be a good team but you'll also need B2 to deal with those pesky double or triple cleanse teams. If you don't like siths your only chance is to go with a Rex team, but most of them use chaze, Kenobi or both.

    There are better options im just stubborn on using Anakin you could easily swap Anakin and Boba for Kylo Ren and Nihilus and have better results.
    If you have Chaze leveled and geared once you have Kenobi you can go Rex lead Chaze Kenobi Nihilus because for Zaul thats a nightmare squad


    He doesn't have chaze or Kenobi, without any of those Rex lead doesn't work against Zaul.

    Not entirely true, I've had success with rex, boba, zkylo, dn and shore against zmaul squads, of course it isn't the ideal set up but you don't have to have gk and chaze to be successful with a rex lead.
  • I was top 10 with empire consistently like 2 weeks ago, and now i'm waking up in rank 30 and managing to get top 20, but it's tight... Thinking of going Maul for my next zeta. Currently t8 gear. It's a shame I am having to do this, but it is what it is. Balance is an alien term in this game.

    Just took a look at his SWGOH GG account.
    Ok well I noticed you like 90% done with your sith so finish DN and use
    Maul with Zeta
    Palpatine
    Savage with zeta
    Darth Nihilus with zeta on unique
    Zeta order should be
    Maul
    DN
    Savage
    I feel the Sith meta is coming to a end so im skeptical about starting to use them now especially if you are going to invest zetas on them




    Maybe you have right. I wait one month, farm gear and see what will be next meta but it hard to gues what it would be. Maybe now its time for Jedi ?
  • Nothing will happen in a month that is not already happening so delaying is not really winning. New empire characters seem ok but not gamechangers, then there is the new character that will come with ability never seen before but we don't know when and does not mean it will be op toon. For god's sake even on decent shards that are coming of age they still run wiggs and make it to top 10.

    So zaul is still in good shape and will be for a while. People that invested in sith 2 mos ago got bigger return but still not to late imo. In terms of zetas, it is zaul for sure (lol, ha ha) but others use with caution. DN's unique is definitively zeta you don't want to spend. Benefit is really really not worth it. Zavage has a large fan community and is probably decent but i personally prefer Zylo in sith team for a number of reasons. Zid is fun and lights up the game with red light special but not essential. DN is cream of the crop and he will live long after sith meta is dead, so getting him is a must. ST is ok, but not really essential if you have zylo or zavage. I did not talk about Dooku as two of us really dislike each other but he is actually not all that bad and ai can't mess up much his play so generally thumbs up.

    Other option is rex team for which u don't need zeta so more afordable option. Re GK is it hard to say, he can be useful but most people in top 10 don't run GK any more even if they have them. GK is also way better when you play against them than when u actually play him yourself. If I was on tight budget would pass on gearing him up for top 10 arena. But if you are shooting for top 50 yes he can definitively make a difference.

    Long live the sith and something tells me that even for christmas you will be able to run sith and place well (like top 20) in arena against new first order and resistance teams.

    Not true! I did really well against Zaul teams with Rex (L), Wiggs, EP, and Shore. Now I destroy Zaul with my Zader, TFP, EP, Rex and Sun Fac.
