I just faced a speed fighter squad in Arena.
EDIT: The squad was 2k power below most of the others at the same rank, so I guess he did something right.
Their setup seems to be build around Poe Dameron and his Expose ability.
There was neither a tank nor healer on the team, which makes sense. If the battle is over quickly, you need neither of them.
(Technically, there was Old Daka as a healer, but she doesn't really heal actively when controlled by AI as far as I can tell).
Interesting concept, as you cannot use tanks against this setup: An all-attackers team with Expose, Stun and so on will take any tank down very quickly.
I guess a squad with three or more healers could be a good counter to that, as most attackers are not made for longer fights. And without a healer they will have a hard time when they go on cooldown. Adding to that perhaps a character that removed negative status from allies?
Any suggestions?

Luke and Kit both offer tenacity buffs which will help you resist more of the negative effects and tip the battle your way again.
I'd use 3 heals + Luke + Ackbar/Elder. You'd have lots of heals including one that works with any healing debuffs and Lumi hits hard in addition to heals and a heal over time and JC can heal frequently. Ackbar/Elder heal on top of the dispel. Luke helps avoid them in the first place and offers some good damage to boot.
