Not on the forums too much except to check on updates, so sorry if this was asked recently (I also don’t have time to look. Again, sorry if this is a repeat). Anyway, anyone know strong counters to nest? The bot my discord has had nothing for us. I know stuns, but didn’t know if anyone had some specific characters they liked using.

Sass and Savage can take her down. Sass will do max health damage, and Savage can execute from 50% health. If the team that surrounds Nest is too good, this won't work tho.
Keep in mind that most teams can beat Nest, they just have to play smart. One or two big hits, then let her take a turn. Stun and daze recommended
I see her frequently as an add-on on Jango BH teams as she gets the speed boost for Scoundrels from his lead. Makes her critical to stun on the opening. It's the only time I pass a turn to KRU off the bat instead of OG.
And I didnt see mentioned: Embo's kick can kill her in one hit at full health, but that requires his contract and is risky by waiting so long.
Who is sass? Couldn’t figure it out by character list
Sass = Sith Assassin
Also, plague eat there well
Nest Under Q'ira is one of the most useful GA / TW pairs. A high tenacity Nest can easily beat a team that doesn't have a big damage dealer (e.g. used mine to beat G12 jedi under GK - lots of defense, not a lot of offense - expose will get you eventually).
I would recommend a modded aayla, op stuns keep nest protection resetting so you can do a big hit, even her B ablility will take out nest without protection
love this
You can still risk doing AoE and never fear for Nests counter attack due to daze and after every stun ends you can do a big hit on Nest. Rinse and repeat until she's dead
For example... with JTR I r2d2 stun nest, bb8 basic for daze. Kill the rest of the team and big hit nest out of stun... stun nest again and bb8 daze. Rinse and repeat.
If you stun a character, dazing them afterward is superflous (assuming the daze is a 1 turn duration).
BH problem? Bossk
Can't kill someone? Nihilus
Taunting/buff problem? Thrawn
Can you not gain bonus TM from abilities like EP lead when stunned?
Nest doesn't have that mechanic (yet...) So doing both doesn't matter on her.
Edit - yes she gains 40% from kinetite charge, but that's prevented by ability block or stun. I meant moreso a leadership ability or other character unique that would grant her bonus TM.
TM gain for Nest isn't typically a problem. What you want to prevent is her taking turns (stun) and/or counter attacking (stun also prevents counters).
