zader or EP lead in Arena?

I just put my first zeta on Vader. I did so because I wanted our guild to be able to tackle the heroic pit raid. I easily soloed the tier 6 last night and we are going to try heroic for the first time in our next raid.

But I went into the arena and changed my entire line up. Moved mods from Wedge and Biggs and got my empire team ready. Took me about a two hour on swgoh.gg. They literally got slaughtered both fights I did. So my question is. Is it better to use EP or Zader as a lead in the Arena. And what is the best strategy for the arena and an Empire team -especially against rebels.

My Team is all 7 star except Shoretrooper who is only 3 star
Zader g11 speed 168
EP g10 speed 188
BF g10 speed 195
ST g10 speed 130
TFP g9 speed 226

My arena team has not updated for some reason. Maybe it doesn't change unless you win a battle. Thanks
  • If you're playing against Chaze I'd go EP for the potency debuff and your Boba has to be faster than Chirrut to ability block him. Period. After that it's a matter of getting buffs and debuffs on him and using execute on your Boba's next turn. Once Chirrut is gone it should be relatively easy with EP's shock stopping a wedge lead rebel team from regaining health. I've successfuly switched from a rebel team to an EP lead and maintain top 5 every day with no problems.
  • Thanks most teams I go up against have Wiggs and either run a Wedge or Lando lead. They are super fast and often have two taunters including STH so my rebel team just couldn't cut it. Any thoughts against these types of teams?
