Not every faction is going to get a counter. The closest counter would be JKA for Jedi. The true counter to Zavage is Thrawn's fracture.

Or Nihilus lead. Or Burst damage.

I'm obviously not running Nihilus or Thrawn on a Jedi team. And you can't do "burst damage" vs him. He either evades, because zMaul's lead is stupidly OP, or every time you touch him gains Def up, Off up, HoT, AND 30% TM. Even JKA's buff immunity doesn't last long enough because he gains so much TM. I ran 4 g11/10 characters at him with multiple stuns and assists, and I couldn't touch him. That's the definition of OP.

Apparently, st upid ly, is a bad word? lol

R1 teams handle him fine under jyn lead. Cass tosses a grenade and passes debuffs to savage and he gets 3+ exposes and anyone can one shot him from there

Opened this just to see if it was an old thread. Far from OP anymore.

Agreed. Just run Rex lead with Chaze like every other Tom, and Harry in my shard. Eats maul lead for breakfast, and is better on defense than the rest of the game combined, especially when Kenobi, and R2 are added. :neutral:

Personally my Nihilis lead has no trouble with Maul teams. Still trying to figure out the stronger quintuple and quadruple cleanse teams though, especially when R2 is accompanying.

Honestly, a Jedi team user really doesn't have a lot to complain about. Just add R2 with zetas, Yoda Zeta, and Qui Gon Jyn zeta, and have fun wrecking everyone.

Problem with Jedi is that for them to be really strong you need Kenobi, and multiple zetas, but once you get that you are very, very strong.

If you're serious about running a jedi team you should have ezra by now.

It's his unique ability, especially when it's zeta'd. If I run Jedi, zQGJ, GK, R2, Ezra, and JKA can manage him pretty well. You probably don't have enough firepower in your squad to take him down. Having JKA put buff and heal immunity on him helps too.

My JKA gets taken out too soon. I don't have GK. I shouldn't need him. In principle, that's ridiculous. QGJ, JKA, Yoda are g11, Ahsoka, Aayla are g10. Under, zQGJ, JKA's spd is 196, everyone else is 200+. So, my team isn't weak (45K+).

Not picking at you but youll want GK for the cleanse, crit protection, taunt, and squad attack. Your squad isnt that fast. Mine is R2 at 275, with speed bonus QGJ is 272, GK 270, Ezra 268, JKA 260. Ahsoka is not good enough and Aayla is limited against current meta squads.

Theres good speculation a Jedi Faction pass is coming in August, so wait and see.

The only issue with the Jedi is how the AI uses Ezra and QGJs dispels. Foresight!!! Lets dispel it!!

Stun him and focus fire - he dies before he can heal. It's challenging but very doable.

there are 3 options actually. TMR, Heal Immunity or massive damage manipulation.

TMR: Jyn can do this, as long as it isn't resisted you can make sure that zSavage doesnt get another turn
Heal Immunity: Sid, JKA, and Cassian can all prevent healing.
Massive damage manipulation: zResistance and/or R1 and/or DN can do this either by exposes or OHKO.
