Just wanted to give a heads up about it to other would-be droidragers. My Poe and Poggle are still 4*, and dropping Lumi and Han improved my rank from 70s to 20s, but I just my butt handed to me by a 7* Phasma led Lumi Daka Dooku Sid. My Poe and Poggle went first, and that team didn't care at all. My hk is 5*, 88 is 6*, and 86 is 7*.
Just posting as info as this is the characters and strategy section.

Glad my wife don't know!!!
Haven't found a team on my leaderboard that I can't beat. May not beat them first try if RNG is not in my favor, but they can be beat. I face the same comp that you had trouble with and beat it no problem usually. With my Poe going first it would be pretty easy.
A lot of it is also knowing who to take down in what order and with which toons.
Well, in that instance, with my Poe and Pog going first against that lineup, either 88 or 86 will go next. If it is 86, I would target Dooku with his assist to get him out of the way early. If he calls a droid it will usually result in a dead Dooku. Then I use 88 AOE and possibly get enough crits to go twice with him and focus down Daka next. Use HK special to hopefully get some ability blocks and put on some more dmg.
If 88 goes first, I use his basic on Daka to avoid hitting Dooku and triggering his counter, then use 86s assist on Dooku, then go back and focus down Daka. These two are most dangerous with their stuns, Dakas revive, and Dookus counter with turn meter gain. Lumi would be my next priority, Sid or Phasma would be last.
But they are slow compared to current meta, and they need Poe vs fast teams
Just go ahead and open up another bank account that she doesn't know about.
But who are you excluding to bring him in? Eg. A GS will attack and bring an assist. Basically, it's 4 vs 5 if he goes first. Or a QGJ whoch can dispel their Poe's Taunt. The problem is not HK but what you cannot add to have TM IF YOUR DROIDS HAPPEN TO HAVE A TURN AT ALL. When Poe vs Poe and enemy has GS or QGJ, your droids may not live enough. An early assist assure you they can be used even prior to their turn. Who cares if the droids hit very iften when the first is decided earlier.
May not work on a whale server, but it works absolutely fine for me on a daily basis. I end the rewards in top 15 now, start back over in the 30s. I may not be able to hold my spot, but my HK(L), 86, 88, Poggle, Poe can climb right inside with the big boys who are all 4-5k above me in power. I've tried taking HK out and subbing in GS while using 88 as the leader. It is effective, but it isn't as effective. That turn meter manipulation is too good to pass up.
