Poggle - How do I even?

So I'm noticing a trend where I'm really having trouble dealing with poggle teams. It's usually poggle buff + Poe taunt and debuff and the game is basically over with the first AoE attack to hit me.

Currently running Phasma lead, Kylo Ren, Dooku, Lumi and Sid. I can deal with most teams, but trying to get past Poggle in either GW or in arena is usually a pain.

Ventress and Royal Guard are tempting. I don't have Yoda, nor am I getting him anytime soon. Any other suggestions?

    Welcome to the forum.
    Poggle is best dealt with by either killing him fast or getting an ability block on him ASAP and rendering him into the hollow carapace of what he once was.

    Lumi can help with both. :)

    I'll need some more stars for my Lumi then. Most poggles seem to be faster than her.

    Thanks :)

    Correction to previous post. My Lumi is fully starred and is still slower. Gear level 8. How many more levels do you think I need before she can go first?

    My best advice is to ignore him completely. Kill the guys who benefit most from his offense up. The absolute worst thing for you to do is attack him early because if he dodges, and he dodges a lot, then he'll get that offense up to GS and co. And short of a stun or ability block he has too much HP to reliably bring down.

    Kill 88/GS/86 instead. Bring QGJ and steal offense up for your guys in the second round. Or bring Assaj to make sure they don't get to use it.

    RG is technically one of the fastest guys in the game because of his auto taunt. That's what you want him for. His stun is just a huge plus

    Thanks man. I just lost another one against poggle. All I got off was a dooku Lightning and a basic attack from Kylo and then 3 of my people were already dead. I'll have to level and star a QGJ, but at least my Ventress isn't half bad.

    Honestly I think the devs need to nerf poggles speed drastically. It's just so damn hard to counter him, much harder than any other champ out there.
