How to counter Wiggs without running Wiggs
So as the title says, what strategies have people found to beat a speed modded Wiggs team?
For starters, lets rule out some comps people think will work only because they haven't fought Wiggs yet:
1. No, JE droids don't work. Biggs feeds off crits, and unloading a barrage of crits on Biggs means Biggs goes and someone dies. The worst thing that can happen is Biggs going, and droids make Biggs go.
2. Counter teams, for one simple reason: you can't counter if you're dead. A Biggs assist with wedge and other means you're dead no exceptions.
3. Wiggs. Yes you can fight fire with fire, but that isn't be point here. We're looking to find an alternate strategy to beating Wiggs, if there is one.
Now that we've eliminated the...well...bad ideas, what will work against them?
1. Obviously more speed. However, with their synergy speed bonus it is very hard to be faster if properly modded. So this will only work if you can be faster than them and their mods with synergy bonus (which I believe is +36 each for the opening round).
2. Han. His opening stun (I swear if you try to stun Biggs I'll slap you upside the head) can be very effective to take out the extra initial assist. Obviously wedge is the prime stun target so he isn't called with a Biggs assist for the OHKO.
3. Big Bad EP. If you can get him to move before he dies, then the AOE stun is very effective, plus shock prevents Biggs from gaining more TM when critically hit (unfortunately, when hit with EPs unique shock and it critically hits, Biggs goes anyways even if you didn't attack him).
So, does anyone else have some successful strategies to beating this power couple?
