Best Way to Fight Phoenix Squad

Hello everyone,
I am using my empire team. Pap (leader), vader, thrawn, tie fighter and tarkin in arena. I am wondering what is the best order to fight the phoneix squad. I normally go chopper first, then hera, then ezra then kenen and last zeb. However, my biggest issue is if i fail to get ablity lock on chopper and he gets his taunts off and or when i get to use pap to stun i dont get my stuns off then hera gets her revive on chopper off then it just seems like i will lose cause kenan will get his taunt off then they go back and forth with that. My squad is all 5*, but tie fighter is 6*. With this new update i am trying to get my phoniex squad to 7* so i can get pap and thrawn up. any advice would be great.

Impossible.

Indeed, I checked... Just 20% TM on special for hera...
No unique.

Only reason I took hera out 2nd was for no backup plan.
That was some time ago though.

Backup plan landing on Ezra has turned a Phoenix battle against my favor. Lesson learned

Funny, I tend to kill Hera first.

1. She is squishy
2. I really hate it when she Buff/Rezes someone that I spent a good amount of time on killing.
3. If I'm using Empire I will often Fracture Ezra just to shut down the team's Dmg.
4. Make sure Vader is fast & don't use TIE/Tarkin AE's till after you have used Palpatine's so they are stunned & don't AE Counter Attack you.

This is most useful, although Ezra's damage is overexaggeration unless he is relic

Some people are bringing ezra high . he plugs a few teams. A relic ezra in 3's right now? A powerful thing

OP - what Zeta's do you have on your squad? Also, how are your mods? Speed > everything.
