Rex lead is the counter to zMaul, zVader, and Palpatine leads (in my opinion).
All those aoes end up critical hitting several people generating lots of TM under a Rex lead.
Further, he provides tenacity up blocking all the debuffs (which sith are all about). If debuffs do land, when Rex cleanses that generates even more TM.
Now, Rex won't cleanse zVader dots obviously. But zVader teams are typically slow, and Rex is fairly fast naturally. Plus if one of their characters goes first, chances are fairly high it will crit. So Rex should be able to get tenacity up on before Vader can dot (maybe not before sidious though).
Rex won't go before zMaul enemies, but after the first one goes, he probably got enough TM from the crits to go next. Then cleanse the debuffs and tenacity up to block the rest.
You will need a supporting cast around Rex, but he is absolutely a great option for leader in arena with all these sith running around. He counters them very well.
