Bug Hard counter ??

I was thinking Sideous lead gear level don't matter.
3 throwaway tanks or tanky toons mid level
G12 Marauder

Marauder should gain 100% TM every time a bug attacks (20% TM gain X 5 assists) 100% and then stacks offense on crits as long as you keep bugs attacking someone else Marauder should just decimate the bugs...

Since there is no way to test this...does anyone think it's viable...

What else has been working for bugs...
  • GG/seppy droid team works (I have g12 B2, zB1, but only 4* and g11 Magna and use Nute instead) You lose one or two, but it's been a one attempt win for me every time in GAC.
  • I've only seen the bugs once but I'm pretty sure I three manned it with the Rebel Triumverate (Cls, Chewy, Han), Stun Brood, Kill Brood, Dispell taunt, Repeat... Although they were not G12 so your experience may vary

    I wore a bug team down with Nightsisters (zzTalzin, zAV, Daka, Talia, Zombie) without too much difficulty. Let Plague and AV's AOE wear them down a bit, then nuke one with MT's full team attack. Repeat until deaded - it's slow, but it goes much faster once you manage to get one down.

    Granted, this was with full G12 sisters (minimal G12+ gear, all modded for around 75-85 speed) against like, G10 bugs with "meh" mods. Dunno if it remains viable with equal-geared and better-modded Geos.
  • I have no problem clearing G12 geos using just my old nigthmare team with tarking...
    Vader is faster for sure and once tm train start nihilius will down their CDs and mostly all of them have pain so their attacks are wasted on sion... Also with tarkin power down they hit like a wet noodle and tarkin aoe with ep stun let i take 2-3 full turns before they even start playing
    58 and 60 banners the two times i faced them
  • Traya shreds them. Can leave DN out for a different team if you like. They basically kill themselves due to her lead.

    A full CLS team can have a hard time vs the bugs, so just the 3 is def not a hard counter. You got lucky.

    Best hard counters are both revs, traya, GG, EP

    Must be luck because apparently Bugs are an efficient CLS counter.
  • I beat them with cls trio, but they were g10. That being said I think cls, rhan, and chewie would have a harder time against them if they were all g12.
  • Traya is the hard counter. I 3-manned it, nihilus and Traya didn’t even get hit and Sion had over half his protection left. If your Sion is fast enough to keep spy from stacking buffs until he has hatred up you can probably safely 2-man it, since held by hatred will completely cool down after every 3 enemy turns.
