Help a returning player
Howdy - first post. I started playing SWGOH when it launched and stopped playing 4(?) years ago when I couldn’t get 5 jedis in time to fully unlock Yoda. I came back a few weeks ago. I was bombard...

TFP is good because of Tenacity Down, but everyone else should be focussed on Turn Meter Removal, if possible. Teebo is AMAZING for this, b/c Teebo can remove 100% TM on a basic attack, so long as Teebo is stealthed.
Some of the easiest-to-farm toons with good TM Remoal:
Cad Bane (Remove 50% on special)
Clone Sergeant (Remove 50% on special)
Clone Wars Chewie (55% chance for 50% removal on Basic)
FO Executioner (Special removes 50%)
GA Thrawn (EXCELLENT toon for Rancor - Fracture removes TM and cuts speed 50%)
GM Tarkin (Special attack removes TM = Potency)
GM Yoda (Removes 70% on special, but b/c Yoda gains lots of TM this happens often)
Greedo (Special removes TM = Critical Chance)
Logray (Removes 100% on special)
Magmatrooper (Special attack removes 30% or 60% TM)
Qui Gon (65% to remove 30% on basic)
Tusken Raider (55% chance for 50% removal on Basic)
Fairly easy to farm, but not recommended:
Darth Vader (Only on Lead, and not reliable unless zeta'd, which really isn't worth it these days)
Old Ben (Special has 80% chance to remove 60% TM, but it has a 5-turn cool down, so not recommended)
Ventress (Lead is like Darth Vader's, and similarly undesirable right now ... though Ventress' zeta eventually becomes useful in the Heroic Sith raid)
So, Teebo and TFP are necessary for the squad, but 3 other TM removing toons are your next priorities.
If you wanted to kill the rancor very early, the easiest way to do it is to zeta Vader and make an all-Empire team with TFP, Tarkin, Thrawn, and Magma behind Vader. But Vader's leadership is a very dubious use of a zeta. Again, whatever is the most fun is what you should do, but zetas being a finite resource and with so many other zetas being both more powerful AND more fun, I'd give this option a pass.
I don’t want to do a whole new squad for rancor but I’d like to have a chance :) Would Ewok elder, teebo, TF Pilot, phasma, be a good foundation for a rancor squad while I wait for CLS / Han?
