so what're some counters to Zader teams?

i don't have chirrut, or rex (but working on him), working on maul too. don't have GK either

just wondering what're some alternatives to beating Zader backed up by empire/sith AOEs.

i find that once one of the AOEs fire, it's all downhill as it takes forever for me to get another turn due to the TM reduction

I run, EP, TFP, Boba, Baze (4 star) and RG. with barely any speed secondaries over 10. I'm fine with hanging around 20 in arena. But at the moment, everyone above me on my shard seems to be running Zader or Zaul leads and frankly I feel like i need to adjust my team to have a chance

much appreciated

    So you run a partial synergy squad, without a zQGJ, and without targeting the person who specifically has anti-jedi capabilities, and you are surprised when you die.

    just some feedback:

    Zoda Zeta does not really help a lot. Yeah the buff is nice, but does not change the game.
    Boba helps, but does not influence the round a lot.

    Here a video I recorded recently (just showing how bad you run against a Zaul team).
    The combination of Stealth, Crit immune, Advantage and massive Dodge + the incredible high damage of Zaul is simply to much.

    Its just one example round, mostly it ends up a lot worse.
    All chars on my team are fully G11, having high speed mods etc.

    First off, as you mention, zQGJ is the most important Jedi Zeta. I'm on a Nov. '15 shard with several Zaul teams and Zader teams and there is a Jedi team (with zQGJ lead) that consistently finishes in the top 5.

    Second, yes, Jedi's suck against Sith. Sith are the scissors to the Jedi paper. Maul specifically is designed to be a strong counter to Jedi (and, as I mention above - properly zeta'd jedi teams can still beat him anyway). General Kenobi is also a major help - and even at only 5* if he is geared to 11 (and no Zeta required).

    Third, the only direct counter to Jedi are Zaul teams. zQGJ Jedi teams (especially if they are running GK) can pretty much take out any other team comp. The above mentioned Jedi team on my shard stated that he autos every battle when he adds in Zarris - and that includes against the Zaul teams.

    TL, DR; If your Jedi I struggling against Zaul, you either don't have QGJ Zeta'd, you're not running GK or you simply aren't geared up as much the Zaul team. Zaul is great on offense - but definitely beatable on defense - even withJedi teams.

    Now:
    + I have already ZQJ now, does not change anything as well (at least against this opponent, who has indeed very good mods etc.). It is a 100% loss.



    Have you tried, I don't know....., running an actual Jedi team instead of a mish-mash?
