Slow Dancing with Poe and his DPS Minions; Countering Poe at 143 Speed
Doing this on a tablet, so I'll add more context in the morning and check any questions / comments. First off, I want to credit @Pilot for estimating long ago that high health toons could challenge the speed meta at this new cap and @Cythis for helping strategize this build as well. We toppled Poe with more speed at cap 60, this was a different challenge though with Poe now turn 1. Additionally, @CronozNL thanks for the Vent video and showing how vulnerable this squad was to offense up AOE.
The heroes: Sid lead, Old Ben, Phasma, Kylo, Poggle
The enemy: Jinn, FOTP, GS, Poe + various 5th members
There are a few key aspects to this that make it work:
1. Toons with the health to withstand the round 1 assault - this requires a different config of heroes
2. Powerful aoe to kill the tanks and hit through the taunt thanks to poggle
3. Meter control from phasma / Ben to get initiative in round 2+
4. Damage down from Ben turns these one trick ponies in to limp noodles
5. Kylo is legitimately dominant attacker when properly positioned in a team
Total result over the last 24 hours since I've had the build viable: 14/19 (74% win rate)
Below I'll make a separate post for each set of battle pics so the post doesn't get too long.
