Cad Bane is absolutely competitive on a full Bounty Hunter team. I run Boba, Cad, Dengar, Zam and 88 and place top 5 everyday on a launch shard. The 100% stun + tm removal is an incredibly powerful move, add crit chance + damage to Jedi and he's very useful against Kenobi and QGJ foresight teams. There are certainly other characters that could replace him at that position, but remember that removing him for a non-BH means losing at least 30% max health for ALL other Bounty Hunters in the squad, so it really has to be a powerful replacement to make up for that.

I'm aiming at a BH team, I currently have Boba lead, Zam and IG 88 fully geared.
I plan on gearing Greedo as a 4th BH and putting B2 on the 5th slot.

@ Sloths19 With the current meta giving tons of buff/Pre taunt, don't you think that B2 is more usefull than Cad?
And why using Dengar over Greedo? I'm interested :)
