Theorycrafting: Lando Team

I really like Lando. He is also really powerful. He can deal massive damage to an entire team and heal himself up to full health on a Wedge lead team just by using his ability. He seems like he could be a catch all type of hero. With the exception of a counterattack team, his ability seems to work great against any team. So here is my idea. What if an entire squad was built around Lando? A squad that kept him alive, prevented him from getting ability blocked/stunned, gave him lots of turn meter, and gave him buffs like offense up, critical damage up, advantage, etc. He could theoretically ignore tanks, stealth, etc. and level an entire team all at once. This could work in arena, GW, raids, TB, and other places.

Has anyone tried this? Also, what do you think the optimal Lando team would be? Thanks in advance for the ideas.

p.s. Even if the best Lando team you can think of isn't "meta," I am still curious to see what it is.

    This thread is so much fun.

    Lando is fantastic in TB, but does not belong under Ackbar. Lando was great in Arena, and still may be for some newer players that do not have to deal with Crit Immunity and/or counter teams, but with Phoenix running around on the young shards, this does not seem likely.

    Aside: Ackbar is also fantastic in TB, but you need to run him with a crew that has non-attack specials. R2 Leia Han HRSo CHolo are some suitable Rebel options. (Edit: CLS too!)

    Lando is a blast in TB. Under wedge lead, with jyn to keep tm going with her own aoe, those troopers just keep getting rained down on. Adding zzr2d2 is the cherry on top. Baze would also be helpful in keeping him alive, but mine is only 4*.

    Lando is great in Tb until skull snowtrooper shows up with skull commanders. He counters and commander gets hit by multple aoe’s putting taunt on said skull snowtrooper. They then buff each other for 5 minutes and unload. Sans skull troopers Jyn/Lando rock. I use them together every non R1 phase.

    Luck of the draw if I go 6/6 on phase 5 If i draw the combo I outlined above.

    If only you can keep lando STEALTHed... that might work since stealth is very helpful for the squish ones and prevents counter attacks
    so R2 would be necessary or other stealth generators would also do, but R2 is the only one that comes to my mind now. Plus R2 will give some additional buffs to lando if it has zeta for number crunch

    Rex (L) / Lando / Chirrut / STHan / Old Ben

    This is my hodgepodge team for TBs and it works insanely well.

    Rex lead gives turn meter, plus special gives turn meter and tenacity up to team

    STHan taunt gives tons of turn meter and he takes away turn meter each turn, plus taunting protects Lando.

    Old Ben takes away enemy turn meter and taunts to protect Lando.

    And Chirrut keeps everybody healing super fast.

    I always switch my mods from CLS onto Lando to give him heavy speed and crit dmg, and then Lando can usually take me thru all 6 waves. Sometimes if the skulls get heavy, I'll loose the last wave in p5 and 6, but that's okay.

    And OB is g9, Chirrut g10, and since Baze is always needed to top off platoons, I can't do the Chaze combo ever, so it's puts them both to good use.

    This also allows Wiggs to be their own TB team, and CLS/Raid Han/R2 to be used other places, as they're the core of most teams.
