Why does Grandmaster Yoda's Masterstroke not get countered?
So many times I've seen GMY hit Count Dooku or Thrawn (with zeta and Fractured enemy so he has 100% counter chance) with Masterstroke and they don't counter.
Is this a bug or something I'm missing?

Are you playing against another Revan team?
Does the other team have foresight?
If you dont hit the other team, i.e.- they have foresight, there will be no counter attack
What Kyno is saying, is if the opponent has foresight, then your attack will miss and therefore can't be countered.
1. The other team has foresight therefore u just cleanse their foresight
2. When somebody from the other team has Stealth because GMY will steal stealth so he wont be countered.
3. Revan's Strategic Advantage
Maybe they dodged his attack? Currently I use GMY everywhere and don´t remember having seen the behaviour you described.
You are still missing what is being said. If there is foresight on the character being attacked by Yoda they'll dodge Yoda’s attack so they won't counter.
Could do with a video next time you see this. Sounds like Yoda is just being evaded.
Does your CLS have the call to Call to Action buff? If so, he doesn't get the +50% counter chance from his unique.
1) GMY that has stagger on him uses Masterstroke
2) GAT counters and removes his TM
3) GMY still takes his next action
I think that's order of operations at play. "He gains an immediate turn if there is a living jedi ally"
So it's probably Masterstroke, counter, reduce TM from stagger and then gain bonus turn. Only a counter that stuns him would "prevent" the extra turn.
That's WAI. GMY gains an immidiate bonus turn, not just 100% TM. The devs changed how that ability worked for it to happen how it happens now.
Not calling a bug on that.
Just an interesting fact cause it looks weird when he loses all his turn meter and then takes an action anway.
I assumed this is why no counter too (re OP). gmy hurries up and starts the next play, and it's too late for dooku to throw the challenge flag. I don't ever remember gmy getting countered off masterstroke (incl cls rebs etc, iirc), so seems to be wai? would be a pretty big nerf if gmy did MS then everyone just countered and gg yoda
I may be confusing it with yoda having stealth/foresight, bc I kinda think I remember someone countering but just missing. bottom line: not sure lol
I fight yodas every day and masterstroke can indeed be countered, my nest does it all the time
Deep breath. I don't know why you are struggling with what me and Kyno said.
If Yoda attacks a character that has foresight (no foresight on Yoda, forget about that), that character will not take damage from Yoda’s attack, and therefore won't counter attack.
If [zeta Ebb & Flow] Thrawn has fractured an enemy, and a GMY without stealth or Strategic Advantage attacks your Thrawn [with any attack including Masterstroke], he should always counterattack.
The only situation in which I can surmise he would not counterattack in this situation is if your GMY missed. Alternatively, I would suggest that GMY actually had SA and you overlooked it in the fast-paced battle, given how quickly that murderous muppet takes turns.
If you record your fights and find one where Thrawn should counterattack but does not, please upload it to Youtube and provide a link here so we can review it.
