    What does R2 bring that makes this wreck Zaul? Burning and cleanse won't be enough I fear. The sith speed boost ensure their first turns will happen. Their health pool is also so much higher (especially with trooper) that I imagine they can withstand some hard hits, get a few more turns in, and do enough damage to wipe out a few toons. :/

    Even if you can hit a stealthed maul you cannot crit him, makes hk47 lead nonsense. And if it would work it would be droid 3.0

    Can you blame them? Droids are one of the most god awful things to watch. Aside from EP1. And Nicolas Cage movies.

    Even if B2 goes first chances are excellent he will miss most if not all the Zaul team. That's what makes the zaul teams so **** frustrating; the dodge and stealth combo makes impossible to focus on one toon and bring them down.

    If b2 has accuracy mod and r2 is present, he should hit. That being said, he is slow and it would be a challenge to make sure he goes first each time.

    It's not challenging just takes the mods. R2 will be a little boost to droid squads but enough to beat zaul teams probably not.

    You'd have to purposely gimp 88 and 86's speed so that they would be at 99.99% tm after je uses his special. Then, this would be terrible ves Rex teams as they would just crit, you're running hk lead right, and then your opposing toons would wedge themselves right after b2 and before your tight droids because you want the perfect setup. Which none of it matters vs zMaul as he will just daze your droids and prevent the tm gain from your whole squad.

    I call for Grievous Lead, R2, ig100, K2SO, Chopper

    You can calculate the speed needed on B2 to make him go second/third (if you want undodgeable burn first)
  • Options
    The desired droid order would probably be r2 => b2 => rest

    To make sure you have a certain order you would need a huge speed difference between je and the rest.

    Also daze will not let you gain that turnmeter i'm afraid.

    I've been running droids since 2015 I think I know this. And you don't have to gimp their speed that much if your je is fast enough. Mine is 265 so I'm going faster than zaul teams without sa and some with semi slow sa. But mauls op broken daze ruins droids regardless.

    My Zooku has 272 speed before the first turn boost from Zaul lead. Your JE has no chance of going first. I ran droids before switching to Empire/Sith this year. R2 will do more for Wiggs/Chaze/Rogue 1 than Droids.

    Yea no one runs dooku so kind of irrelevant. Good job following the meta tho. And obviously they will help rebels more because cg gimped droids out of a cleanse.

    Hang on, there's Jawa Engineers that aren't speed 300 in people's rosters?
