Yoda Zeta lead to counter Sith teams?

Will have another Zeta at payout tonight. Zaul has taken over my shard. Zaul lead with Sith Assassin is currently destroying everything in its path. Could a Yoda Zeta lead be an effective counter? I already have his Battle Meditation zeta'd. The tenacity bump and 30% TM gain on resisted debuffs seems promising. You also get tenacity up when a debuff lands. Worried about losing the offense boost from my current ZQGJ lead. Has anyone that has a Zoda Lead had any success against the new Zaul teams?
  • What is good in Rex lead? He just give +max health and some TM gain which does not seem big for non clones

    Sith have advantage coming out of stealth. Which means lots of turn meter for you. But I think Daze counters this. Throw in drain force to stop Rex's cleanse and its game over imo. So the battle can go either way I think.

    The problem is most zaul don't lead with zaul's AOE daze, they lead with an array of AOEs which crit giving everyone on Rex's team 37.5% TM which triggers the Rex team to all go. Even with dark shroud, if everyone on both sides is 100% TM, it'll be RNG. It's hard to make an execution order that's hard for zQGJ, zader, zaul AND rex.
  • With Tenacity working like now, i dont think his lead works in PvP. Tenacity Up (Buff) might work for 2 turns, but will your Jedi be powerful enough to take out enough Sith before the Buff expires?

    It is the constant TM gain that is really useful and as well for tenacity up on each debuf. Only EP is really annoying as he buff blocks but this could be countered with a speedy Zoda.
  • On paper it could work. You would need a cleanser(or 2) also.

    Problem is yoda is kinda squishy and Jedi are not that strong of attackers.

    I use rex lead and even with the worst rng, with full tm on both gk and rex I went last and got hit with nihilus CD reduction, I still came out on top. If yoda only had a cleanse I would think this could be better. (Gk and yoda)
  • Also currently running Zaul, it was a case of I couldn't beat them, so I joined them.

    Anyway, Rex led teams fall apart once Rex is down.

    As for Jedi teams, Yoda is always my first target.
  • Rex lead with R2 is your best best. R2 is required as he gives 10% accuracy boost to everyone, this helps with the insane amount of dodge from zaul lead.
