So tonight I will finally get WAT and so I have been trying to figure out how to split up my separatist teams for defense. Here are how my current teams are set up.Team 1: The regular GG DroidsTeam 2:NuteDookuAsajjNestFivesI have geos and I use them on defense but I don't want to change anything up there.I don't have Jango in the Nute team because I want to keep my BH viable for offense and I have Fives as my tank because he is my second best tank as of right now after Kenobi. So where could I use WAT to make my teams the most viable?Edit: Although my swgoh.gg is at the bottom I will just put it here too: https://swgoh.gg/p/755536779/characters/

As the goal of the Nute/Dooku/Nest concept is to make them attack Nest because everybody else is under stealth, do you need Fives in that lineup? That just gives them a target other then Nest to hit. This could be a spot to use Wat or maybe Droideka if you use with Wat with GG.

Ok, thanks!Dooku's 'Master of Makashi' special stealths all non-Tank Separatists, leaving anyone who does not fit that description - often Nest - as the de facto tank. That is why you want to make Dooku fast.

Nute, Dooku, Wat, a tank, and Jango are the A version of this team. Not having Jango hurts the damage potential, but it isn't too terrible. Sub in Asajj instead and the team does just fine.As for the "a tank," there are a few really good options. Stormtrooper Han is an ideal fit here because his kit really gels with Nute since there's a lot of TM manipulation, and his biggest weakness - a difficult taunt- is made moot thanks to Dooku being able to stealth everyone.Kylo Ren Unmasked also works here thanks to all his health recovery, but also remember to mod him for health.And finally Nest goes well here as the tank, although there are a ton of good uses for her particularly on offense.

I run a Nute squad on offense: Nute lead, Dooku, AV, NS Zomnbie, Wat. If I use Wat somewhere else on offense, I sub in B1.

Got it, I should probably mention that I am at 1.4 mil GP so I already have plenty of viable squads for offense, I am really looking at my defensive teams to put WAT in so I can make it much harder to beat those teams.

I pull Droideka out of the GG team and plug in Wat. He can really make it tough on mediocre Jedi or mediocre Padmé teams.

Got it, so where could I put Droideka? Or can I just leave him out?

You can run him, Dooku, Jango with Nute.

Yeah that's probably what I will do. I used to keep Jango with Nute but then I realized that I just never used my BH on offense and even when I did they were not very useful without Jango so I replaced him with Asajj which is fine I think because I am going after GAS and my Asajj is going to be at G12 soon.

Yeah I do mod him for speed, although his set is like 60-70 that's still around 220 or 230 speed so it beats most speeds in GAC.
