Got 6 pages in and couldn't find any topics on this. Facing a dang 7 star gear 8 level 70 Rey in GW. How the heck am I supposed to counter this crap? She can one shot any of my Level 67-68, 7 star, gear 8 toons, even the tanks. In arena, that's not a game killer. I can scrape out a victory most of the time, but in GW, losing a powerful toon in the first hit guarantees you will lose another pretty quickly, and there is no way to get out without losing a third. 3 of your top squad dead means GW is over for the day. Even if you manage the victory. And I'm not using low Health high damage toons. The new GW matching isn't working out well for me. Constantly being matched up with significantly higher powered teams. Is there anything you can do other than wait until tomorrow and hope you don't get paired up with Rey again?

Correction, she's just 5 stars, and still did 9k damage to my Sid, one-shot kill.

Send in a suicide squad to soak her specials if your A-Team can't focus her soon enough.

If you don't have fast characters that can kill her before she moves, use a suicide squad. You can also try setting QGJ as leader so that you can kill her before she moves.

If you can't move before her, you probably won't beat her. Any debuff you can get in her will reduce her damage output. If you have Dooku you can stun, QGJ can assist kill her, same with GS. Otherwise send in the suicide squad or rotate your lineup leaders to get a dodge on her attack. Lumi and Dooku both offer evasion bonuses.

Use sid demoralizing blow.. he usually goes first before Rey..Rey's weakness is debuff, which takes away roughly 20% of her offense.. glhf

Stun with Dooku, then knock her out before she can move. Since it's GW you can retreat and just keep trying till RNG gives you the stun you're looking for.
Geo soldier and QGJ are also faster than her, and can one-shot her with a good assist.
If you don't have them, then suicide squad is probably your best bet.

I sniped #1 who had a 7* Rey. I run a HK who is pretty tanky. Rey hit him, didn't knock him out. Once HK was able to throw his AOE Rey had a negative buff and wasn't an issue
