Darth Vader's Terrifying Swing unresistable ability block and unavoidable hits should also affect Rebels. If you read the Vader comics you see the Rebels are terrified of him especially in Vader Down were he is surrounded by Rebels and he destroys them all.
Vader is really good on a Palpatine team or his new Zeta Leader Ability which make DOTS last forever as long as Vader is alive, so yes Vader can be used on a ranked team
Vader's kit relies on applying debuffs and his Culling Blade to deal insane amounts of damage. His basic is there to prevent use of special abilities not the damage it deals
What people don't get about Vader is that the real meat and potatoes of his kit are his two specials. The basic with ability block is just there to stall the enemy from doing the high amounts of damage required to take him out before he can get it off. Vader was never meant to be a fast DPS machine, he's more of a tank that keeps on coming until he kills you.

I wonder sometime if anyone at EA has even seen star wars....tell me when have you seen this guy on a ranked team?
Not like he's the hero or anything
He used to be viable pre palpatine.
Vader wasn't that viable before Palpatine or his Zeta Leader ability. He was sort of a joke
Never seen anyone use Luke.
The rebel meta that was starting to take form before palp had luke in and he hit hard. Pre mods ofcourse.
Soon a new version (jedi knight luke) will be released.
He will be op and cost half the GDP of Botswana
