Beating the Empire Meta

So I've been experimenting a lot with NS and decided if you can't beat them join them...I'm currently theorycrafting a team and wanted to get people's opinions on it. I'm in a very young shard which means that all the teams top 100 now are EPVader leads, I come up with a similar team which will let me both use NS and abuse OP Vader at the same time.

Empire Palpatine (L), Vader, 4 Star Shoretrooper or 7 Star Stormtrooper, Talzin 7 Star, Zombie 7 Star (currently g8 but might take him to g9/10)

Any thoughts on this comp?

I'm thinking use Palpa and Vader combined with Zombie and Stormtrooper to protect Talzin and Palpa, then let Talzin do what she does.

This is my roster: https://swgoh.gg/u/adapting/

    I don't get Talzin under EP lead. Her main use if the plague mechanic - which prevents cleanse - and EP wants his enemies to cleanse themselves, feeding TM to your team.
    Also, Talzin is pretty squishy, and part of the reason Nightsisters work is because they revive one another. Without that, Talzin wouldn't last long. And get healing mechanics also work only on Nightsisters, and wouldn't benefit the rest of the team.
    So... No, I wouldn't make the switch. Both EP and Talzin are great toons to have, but not together.

    I'm no expert. But...

    You have a good Empire team, and a good Nightsisters team. I wouldn't mix them. Don't dilute that synergy.

    Your Vader will be slower than others, so you’ll probably still lose.

    You want to beat Palpz/Vader easily ? Just use Rex Lead, Zolo, CLS, GK and Thrawn.

    EDIT: Ok, haven't seen your roster before my posting - Thrawn not geared and no Zolo at all - my suggestion is no solution for you. Nevertheless: get RaidHan and gear Thrawn, they both are amazing.

    But my NS team gets demolished by Empire and I dont want to be just like the other cool kids who have the exact same team as all the top 50. Seriously right now my shard is 2 FO teams, 3 NS teams including me, 2 Rebel teams and rest all empire, so like 43 empire vs everything else.

    I am working on Rex but dont have him, have thrawn at 5 stars so no bueno until he comes again. No GK or Solo yet unfortunately, I'm trying to work with what I have.

    There's a reason they have the same top 50 team - they don't like getting demolished...
