Horror meta

I love the Palpatine and Vader rework and I love how Sion fits in this team.
But what happened next? The return of Rex. And he came back with Talzin, Palp, GK and a fifth toon. Sometimes Thrawn, sometimes Old Ben.

This team seems like a random team and should NOT be the new meta! Plague kills you, but it is nearly impossible to attack Talzin because GK and Old Ben taunt all the time, while Old Ben and Palp put you out of commission. The only way to go for (if you don't have tons of ultra mods) is to use Rex with Talzin, Palp and GK for yourself!
I don't think that developers wanted to look the arena like that

    Use Magma under Palp. Their Vaders debuffs will feed his TM and he will use his special :)

    My suggestion : if you use a Rex lead team then you need a TM removal toon to make your team better.So i use Rex lead,Tarkin,Palp,Raid Han and GK and this team does good on offense.All you need is a fast Tarkin and Palp to make it work. :)


    Curious but how fast is your Tarkin to make this work? Im bit torn over whether to start modding Tarkin for Offense + Speed instead of Potency + Speed, since potency + speed is soooo hard to find.



    My Tarkin has only 216 speed with potency mods (speed secondaries),about 106 % potency,G12 and both zetas on him.

    That team is so CHEAP, l hate it, Rex lead must get a NERF, he has been meta for SO LONG, it doesnt even requires strategy (like an Imperial squad), it just requires to use the most broken toons in the game, under Rex leadership, BRILLIANT (Claps sarcasticly)

    Enjoy the diversity. I run Rex or EP or MT leads depending on mood. Sure, Rex can win easily against several teams but I drop like a rock on defense. I lost I think 80 spots one night (17th down into the 90's)!! MT or EP is much more stable on defense.

    One thing I have noticed - JTR is all but gone in top 20. She's down in the 50 range now not much further up than the CLS titans. I think there are one or two JTR squads that fight into the top 20 but they dont last. This is on a very old shard...

    No, I say that viable teams should have intended synergy.
    Clone, Jedi, Nightsister, Sith, Rebel in one team is not what a top arena team should be imo


    Please define 'intended synergy'.

    GK intentionaly has synergy with clones (check his leader ability). If using Thrawn as fifth like most Rex players I see on my shard then there is empire synergy between EP and Thrawn (unique). Palpatine's shock blocks healing, thus preventing plague from being removed. There's your synergy between MT and EP. Putting up tenacity early is a strong defensive move. Thrawn is naturally faster than Rex. His TM swap can allow Rex to put up his tenacity up even faster. ... aaaaand it's a full circle of synergy — all purely intwntional, I'm sure.
