Great write up and analysis.
I will say I have one difference in opinion on the Vader comment. I run an EP(l) with a maxed out Vader and he is one of my best arena characters outside of Zylo. The key with vader is he needs support to maximize the effectiveness of his Force Crush and Culling attack. Outside of Dooku with his counter and then getting another turn, not many characters get 3 attacks in a row. Being able to knock out a powerful attacker like Biggs, EP, TFP and others and then ability block works very well.
IMO, he needs B2 to mow down and Boba helps prevent any cleanses or tenacity up from Rex.
I'm not sure how that translates to a DN lead, but I can tell you after facing several Zaul teams that he makes short work of Sith that don't have a lot of health/protection.
True maybe I was a bit harsh on Vader under EP lead, I used him there and he was rather good. But I have run a Zaul team since december now and I've never found a spot for Vader on there, there's always been a better fitting Sith.
For Vader to work with a Nihilus lead you'd need to have unicorn mods to speed him up, the dots expire and he doesn't gain TM from debuffing or dodging, that's why I said others are better under a Nihilus.
His culling blade can sure make short process of Sith if he lives long enough to get those two turns in without any TM gain.
