Obviously GS and ISC have synergy, but which other three would you add to that team to make it viable?Also, we need a Mandalorian tag now.

Not sure TFP would work so well. You want beefy empire that will counter, not a glass cannon that relies on evading to survive. Vader seems like a better fit. Ability block on basic could be a useful addition. DT is an obvious choice. If no GK, then maybe RG.Thinking about it a bit more, RG is a pretty great match. Will allow Gar to use his special more often due to applying speed down, and the stun is fantastic. Can even apply defense up for even tankier empire.

RG is a decent choice for a tank for sure. Maybe Shore + RG and DT, GS, ISC. Missing the cleanse though. Perhaps the empire rework will bring a cleanse and tenacity up to Veers or one of the troopers.

I would bring Vader into it for sure, speed down and dots, a lot of fun. I wouldn't put TFP, he's not tanky enough to get successful in this squad. Maybe Shore would be great too, daze and stun, double attacks against rebels. Then the 5th is hard to attribute, but I would go for a Cleanser and a Taunter as well, this is why GK could fit into it, especially for retribution. That would be good on defense I guess but there's no cleanser along the Dark Side. Maybe Veers will have an opportunity there, but I don't think so. I know it could seems hard to believe but Snowtrooper and ability block could be a great option too. If you face a zMaul we could imagine a B2 going in, like this you would have two buff immunity, one dispeller, one cleanser, full retribution everywhere, AB, speed down, evasion down, TM removal, stun, daze, foresight, etc... Wait and see to unlock him !

Gar Saxon + Imperial Super Commando + which other 3?

I wouldn't want Shore trooper. He hits like a wet noodle. That's a lot of wasted counterattack potential.

Magma trooper hits 2 people with his basic, so he gets attacked and counter attacks 2 people (he's hard to debuff too). Palpatine for the occasional shock from basic, which makes him go faster, Death Trooper for the buff wipe, and Royal Guard for auto taunt and counter stun.

RG needs a better autotaunt then. More like Kenobi's would be ideal. Or at least "Royal guard taunts whenever an empire character takes damage or when non empire characters fall below 75% health (or 100%)"

I'd still run TFP myself, then RG or Shore for a tank. I think that would be pretty effective under Zader lead but... you need them all very fast w the exception of your tank. Can always change things if not as successful as you hoped.

Meh, I'd rather have them all attack Palpatine first so he shocks all of them, and starts going all the time. He's regaining health with every counterattack, and the Gar lead should make him and the rest quite tanky (40% defense) The whole reason I say Royal Guard is because his taunt won't have much uptime... comes in just in time to save your heavy hitters from death and then he stuns half your team while you work around to your buff wipe. Too much uptime and it just decreases the chances of bonus attacks from your heavy hitters.

Meh. Phoenix lead and abilities did/do no good with anyone but themselves. These two can combine with a large pool of existing characters.

Has anyone considered ZFOST as a possibility in a Gar team? Seems like he would have 100% counter

zVader lead, Dooku, Sith Trooper, Saxon, ISC

4/5 have counter so Saxon goes crazy on assists and everyone has turn meter removal from vader. Its not a meta team, but it would be fun

The only problem would be their counters will be removing tm from 0. Still, I like the synergy!
