Revan too OP

I would gladly toggle the option to be in a revan less GA, then let those with arena revans measure their sticks against each other, and I too could have fun without.

Would make sense that droids are immune to plague, being non-organic and all. But grievous is a cyborg, not a full Droid.

As for Revan, yes there are effective counters, the only downside is you need arena grade mods on them. Even to fight someone's non-arena or sub-par arena Revan you have to have your own Revan or ridiculous mods on one of the known counters.

Not to mention that A. the counters don't usually hold on defense leading to B. being targeted by every Revan team out there.

Or Troopers.

Getting a good trooper team takes more work than just getting Revan.

Hence the "and/or".

So compared to farming 5 Troopers straight-up, to get that exact Revan team you listed:

Unlock Revan:
Mission Vao
T3
Zaalbar
Bastila
Jolee

Then, to unlock GMY:
Ezra
2 additional Jedi

Then you need teams to contribute to a HAAT capable guild without just languishing at the bottom of the rewards pile to get a 7* Kenobi.

I'd say a decent anti-NS Trooper team is far easier.

Git gud.

But no, there are ways to beat him on offense.

Just because there are ways to beat him (and there are) doesn't mean he is NOT overpowered. If we're being honest, he is ridiculously overpowered. He can take any below average jedi team and make them a threat against any arena team you can put together - and he doesn't have to be g12 or well modded to do it.

That said, whatever. CG has been releasing ridiculously, meta-defining toons/ships for 18+ months - it's their new MO. I'm fully expecting the next released arena toon to jiggle his fingers and two opposing toon fall over dead - and it can't be evaded/resisted. I think the ability should just be called "whale chum".

So MT lead NS beat him? I got curbstomped by Revan in this GA round, but I had to use my NS in a mirror match. I have nothing else that can touch him.

Use Imp Troopers vs NSisters
Mine are G9/10 (Veers 11) and they stomp G12 NSisters in TW and GA.
Then use your own NSisters vs Revan

I said he was beatable on offense; I did not say that those teams could survive on defense... that’s why everyone chooses Revan.

Nightsisters are powerful to defeat Revan.
The two most dangerous formations are:
Revan, GK, Jolee, GMY and Bastila
Revan, GK, Hyoda, GMY and Bastila

The first formation is more dangerous since there is an order to kill and the GK is essential to force this order: any character (GMY preference, which will be saved by the savior) Jolee and then the others.

The second is dangerous because the training can cause the explosion of damage to sweep away all of their sisters, but there is no risk of someone being revived and as soon as the GMY drops for the second time it is almost 99% victory.

Without GK: The GMY will be killed the first time, and the
savior of revan will be activated and next to the line is Jolee and the team collapses. Old ben with the zeta is ok to replace the GK, but still lower. without zeta the Old Ben, it does not perform well.

No Tank: Only a brutal difference of gear / mods prevents the sisters from winning.

Without Bastila and / or GMY: There will be no explosion of damage to knock down all sisters.
