Opinions on tactics for squad tournament defense team?

Greetings,

Since a lot of squad tournaments are coming up I started to wonder about a viable squad tournament defense team and tried to do some research on the matter.

But so far I have not found any extensive discussion about it.

Maybe this is because these tournaments are not very much liked by seemingly quite a few people.

Anyway, I know that defense teams are played by AI and as such are generally weaker and more beatable than the squads led by human players. So there is I asume no unbeatable super power team.

So just building a team with high power level does not cut the cake.

Therefore I am thinking maybe a team that favors AI play might be better. Is there such a team that is easy to handle by the AI and if so which one?

Another theory I read is to make your team undesirable to play against because of annoyance factor so people will skip your team in the selection screen. One such team that was been suggested is supposedly this:

Dooku (L)
Yoda
Rey
RK
Resistance Pilot
TIE Fighter Pilot

The idea seems to revolve around Yoda giving foresight to the whole team constantly and missed attacks buffing the team through Dooku with attack power thus supposedly creating a high level of annoyance for an opposing player...

Can someone confirm that or is the theory crafting off on this one?

Anyone has other teams he or she wants to suggest in this category?

Any opinions appreciated and apologies for wall of text.

    So far I don't really have a dedicated arena team because I sit intentionally for months now around rank 2100 and just retreat on any of the required three matches a day ever since EA CG started that strange correlation between arena rank and GW opponent difficulty.

    The Arena team I use is just strong enough to keep the rank I am at and actually my main GW team since I value being able to finish GW on a daily basis higher than a hundred or so arena tokens more per day than I get now.

    But i will just look for the most recommend arena teams now and try to model one after them (probably Wiggs, BO, BF, etc.) now.

    So thank you for that information.
