Problem with Rex is, he is just too slow. At 140 base there is just no way to make him faster than TFP and even Boba is faster at 147. With Zaul lead all Sith gain 20% TM at the start, so even Palp is quite easily faster then. This team is not something I would have problems with.
Just gave an example of a team that can make it to top3 on a competitive shard with empire teams roaming around. It's not a great team for defence, grant that, especially since AI isn't as bright in applying tactic into a fight. However that team can handle empire teams as well as they handle my team.
I gave a rough idea based on arena bracket. You can easily put in your own (fast) TFP instead of Lando or JKA if you feel you loose on speed against Zader squads.
Against Zaul - you just need to soak up initial burst, but it's not as problematic since Boba ability block and Palp stun are applied before you act so they disappear on the same turn. RG can be put in squad if you feel you need extra survivability.
Granted - empire teams are very consistent, but certainly not unbeatable.
