Correct me if I’m wrong.

Inspired: adds buffs, but is lost after being critically hit 3 times. (Assuming that buff immunity does not block it. It doesn’t say.)

Finn - Strength of Will: if TM swapped with Poe (only), Poe becomes Inspired.. (Cooldown 4)

Poe - Spark of Resistance: if Poe’s Inspired and uses a special, he Inspires target Res ally.
Poe’s Specials - cooldown 3.
Poe - Basic: if inspired Poe adds Vulnerability. (The only way to add it).

So, it takes 4 cooldowns for a second character to be Inspired, and 5 cooldowns to either add a 3rd Inspired ally, or to even start adding Vulnerability to the enemy...

This team will be dead before it gets started.

When Poe gets inspired, Finn does from the same special. At that point, Poe would go and could use a special to inspire another ally.
If the Finn was fast enough, there would be 3 inspired characters at the beginning of the battle.

Keep in mind we are still waiting for the new Rey's kit and how it interacts with inspired.

Also inspired is a blue icon so I don't think it can be stopped by buff immunity.

EDIT: Poe can inspire another character (for a total of 4) on his next turn if he uses the other special. This is without any spreading that Rey(or any other potential added resistance character) could potentially do.

When Finn is inspired, resistance allies have 100% counter chance, so if poe is hit and counters, he can inflict vulnerable. Also, when Finn uses his rally ability he would call Poe to assist.

Right now the key seems to be making the new Finn extremely fast.

Yeah, inspiring toons do not seem to be an issue without accounting for new Rey. Also, Resistance leads (prenerf zFinn / JTR) have some way to reduce cooldowns so it’s highly likely that new Rey will also have something to do with cooldown decrease on her lead.
