Chaze is still crazy over powered. Sorry, but it is. I ran into a Chaze team on GW at node six. They weren't event maxed, but both my maxed QGJ Jedi team AND maxed Clone team (combined power of over 98000 points) couldn't even kill one of them. Even with Annakin; they just ignore heal block completely. I'm sorry, but there's no balance at all in two toons that can do that. CG messed this one up, but won't admit it. It's that simple.
They don't ignore heal block. Either you were attacking TenUp toons or you have potency/rng issues, but heal block is most definitely a solid way of dealing with them.

For example:
- Boba can ignore taunts. There are so many taunters around that this would be a nice way to attack Chirrut regardless of Baze taunt. And we had another strategic option to handle taunts in general.
This brings up an interesting point. There are quite a few characters that could thematically make sense to ignore taunt. Why would the droids care about a taunt for example, or it can be rolled into Mace's shatterpoint unique to also ignore taunt.
I don't know how far that would go though as far as Chaze is concerned. The taunt ignoring character would have to essentially have some amount of pressure they could apply in their own right for that to be effective. Mace certainly doesn't fit that bill.
"Thematically avoiding taunt" is pretty much the worst argument ever lol. In what world do soldiers immediately stop what they're doing to attack a guy who's throwing insults at you?
It's not like that, the "thematic reason" for taunt in games has always been making something think you're the biggest threat. It's not like you taunt in WoW, for example, and you character starts lobbing Monty Python insults from a curtain wall or something....
The point I was making was shatterpoint specifically finds a fault in opponents defenses, so Mace wouldn't be concerned about "a threatening presence" if he already identified the best way to end a fight is elsewhere.
Currently Shatterpoint is alomost useless against taunts because in most cases expose is not inflicted on the taunting toon. You have a point there.
Very true, It's a buff that I think makes sense and needs to happen for Mace. Like I said before though, it's only marginally applicable for the topic at hand, since for a character ignoring taunt to be useful against Chaze the character has to be able to provide pressure in his or her own right, like Boba does with Execute. Even with an expose up Mace just doesn't do that. He's... not really in a good place, lol.
Besides damage for Chaze it would be useful to have some toons that ignore taunts and inflict stun or ability block. A Nightsister rework could include this, Ventress needs a substantial upgrade and with her this step would be plausible. There are others. Dooku for example but he is already over the top limit with his 3 trillion counters.
