How do you counter Zylo and Zavage?

Switch B2 to EP. I tried that combo and found that having only Bobby Smits and TFP dealing damage is not enough. You simply do not put out enough force to take the opposing team down.

Bobby Smits is Boba Fett?

Ability block him with TFP imo

That seems to be the logical response, but not quite a counter, and doesn't quite work.

Don't leave Zavage until last. beat on him a little bit early, get some debuffs on him. When he steals the debuffs from the others, hit him with someone else to trigger his buffs, then execute him with Boba Fett.

As for Zylo, get Healing Immunity on your team somewhere.

I guess my statement wasn't quite clear. He would definitely be near the end of my kill order, but I wouldn't just leave him alone until then. I'd make sure to target him occasionally to stack debuffs on him, and when the stack got big enough is when I would take him out.

Boba counters Zavage easily.
Healing immunity, ability block, stun to counter zylo

The AI is plain stupid with zylo so dont bother with him too much in the beginning

I've had zylo 1v5 my zaul team a few times because Daze ab and shock don't stick. Need to check the guys mods and his tenacity but if you can't block his skills or protection regain you are done

Only times I have ever beaten zSavage were with two Executes after he has absorbed debuffs from other Sith. He is also killed as quickly as possible. Leaving him till the end is no good.

Kylo is less trouble but still a royal pain. He is also better killed early but I can 2-3 v 1 him more successfully than Zavage.

He needs to be ability blocked. If he starts using outrage I'm done for.

Tenacity up is also really helpful to keep his healing immunity and Zavage's offense down (which nueters Boba's execute).

I also run Boba lead rather than Rex lead as he hits harder against them.

DN is lots of fun to instakill those big boys.

Some changes I made my rex lead to help. Jka healing immunity and buff immunity can help.

A more recent change I just made is switching nihilus (4*) for boba. I don't need to use anihilate on kylo as much, more for dooku, savage,maul, zarriss, even chirrut at times. Works better all around then execute, but zavage should fall prey to execute too, just have to time it well.

Rex (L),jka, zarriss, gk, nihilus. Doesn't always hold top 10 over night, but there are few teams I can't beat even with bad rng.

Kylo is easier to counter than savage. With Kylo you must ability block, heal immunity and don't put to many dots on him. He isn't to hard as he doesn't game tm like savage.
Now with savage it gets rough. Putting debuffs on him won't work because if you crit than he cleanses everything. Wiggs can take out savage. I usually annihilate him with Nihilus. when it's savage vs your team. He will start to get a bunch of hots because every time you hit him, he gets a 2 turn hot. Stack his hots and use Vader or boba to 1shot him. Also if you apply a lot of debuffs at start of game. Savage will take them and can possibly have a lot of buffs mid game for you to take him out with Vader or boba
