JML Counters

= JML lead =

SLKR/DR/BSF/Traya + Wat/Malak
Enemy comps:
 * JML/JKL/JKR/Hoda/GAS

Comps:
 * SLKR/DR/BSF/Traya + Wat
 * SLKR/DR/BSF/Traya + Malak - if your Wat is weak. Malak provides an additional source of Shock to help get to Ultimate

This comp is very susceptible to ability block, so having Traya around as long as possible helps to cleanse it.

Modding:
 * Traya to have CA arrow (rather than Speed arrow when TM-swapping with Thrawn)

Turn order:
 * 1) Wat Tank Tech SLKR (not weapon tech)
 * 2) SLKR AOE
 * 3) BSF Fear JML
 * 4) DR Force Storm JML (not Insanity)
 * 5) SLKR Poke JML
 * 6) BSF Wild lightning JML
 * 7) SLKR Basic JML
 * 8) DR Insanity JML
 * 9) SLKR AOE
 * 10) BSF Ability Block JML (not Wild lightning, as not shocked)
 * 11) SLKR AOE repeatedly while in Ultimate

Important:
 * SLKR must be faster than JML
 * SLKR should go into Ultimate as soon as 100% or just after JML goes into Ultimate, even if not 100%
 * May need to get second Ultimate off at 67% just to survive to the end.
 * Don't aoe when all enemies have foresight!
 * SLKR should use aoe when available to protect allies
 * Traya is there just to tank, so CA arrow

SLKR/Wat/GG/B1/GBA
Suggested by I've gone from being able to counter JML lead to getting destroyed in seconds, but doesn't seem that good due to lack of auto-cleanse. GG can be marked and taken out quickly. Still won though.

DR/BSF/SLKR/Wat + Malak/Han
DR (L), BSF, Malak (or Han if there is a Wat on the other team), SLKR, Wat Put weapon tech on DR first (shield tech on SLKR, med tech on BSF if possible) and just control the battle by keeping the enemies mass feared.

Enemy comps:

Moon Turn order (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2kuz8521PuA):
 * 1) Han Solo Shoot First Wat
 * 2) Wat Tank Tech SLKR (not weapon tech)
 * 3) SLKR Poke Wat
 * 4) BSF Fear GAS
 * 5) DR Insanity JKR

 * 13) Kill order: Wat, JKR, GAS, JKL then JML

BitDynasty Turn order Climb in Squad Arena Supreme Leader Kylo Ren Galactic Legend - 7:07 - Traya instead of Wat:
 * 1) Han Solo Shoot First Wat
 * 2) SLKR Poke GAS (or Wat if Wat is r5-7 - with Traya on the team cleanses Ferocity, too risky to rely on Fear landing on next step)
 * 3) BSF Fear Wat
 * 4) SLKR Basic GAS
 * 5) DR Insanity JKR
 * 6) BSF Ability Block JKL (not JML)
 * 7) Traya Isolate JML
 * 8) SLKR Poke GAS
 * 9) Traya Isolate JKL so he doesn't get Jedi's will
 * 10) Kill order: Wat, JKR, GAS, JKL then JML

Notes:
 * Fast GAS and fast, high-relic Wat can be a problem. Need to poke Wat, rather than GAS, as can't rely on BSF landing fear on Wat. However, that leave GAS free to wreck face. Solution is to put weapons tech on BSF at the start of the match, rather than tank tech on SLKR, to ensure BSF goes before GAS and hopefully lands fear on GAS (there is more of a chance of landing Fear on GAS rather than a high-relic Wat)
 * If their Wat is high relic and yours is not, may want to use Traya instead of Wat
 * Fast mods on BSF seem to be a huge help. Two videos above has BSF faster than DR.
 * BSF should prioritise Ability Block, not shock, on JML
 * Try to remove Wat, then JKR. May want to work on GAS to proc Saviour then go back to JKR directly

SLKR/Wat/GG/B1/GBA
SLKR, GG, Wat, B1, GBA = semi-consistent counter against JKR lead JML. About 4/5 wins or better. This is what I have, so this is what I use. you want your own SLKR to be r8 when facing r8 JML's. Team is designed to feed SLKR ult. swipe first and then stab at least once. don't wait for 100% to trigger your first ult. I've gotten used to the battle and will sometimes wait a bit to build the ult meter for the first (of usually 2) ult triggers but only if RNG is treating my Seppies well. Wat gives middle tech to SLKR again. Pretty common to trigger first ult asap or at most 85% if things are good. https://www.reddit.com/r/SWGalaxyOfHeroes/comments/mx8eof/what_are_some_useful_slkr_squads/gvmpo2g/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=web2x&context=3

SLKR/DR/BSF/Wat/Traya
Maybe no Traya?? - as lack of potency from ferocity is an issue for DR/BSF: "I don't bother using Traya for decoy. I use SLKR, Bastila Fallen, DR, Wat and Han Solo for the JML Wat teams and same team replace Han Solo with Malak for Hoda teams." https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=C-h2WJyVEoA

Enemy comps:
 * JKR/JML/JKR/GAS/Hoda

Moon Turn order (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2kuz8521PuA):
 * 1) Wat Tank Tech SLKR (not weapon tech)
 * 2) SLKR Poke GAS (clears crit immunity and tenacity up)
 * 3) BSF Fear Hoda
 * 4) DR Insanity JKR
 * 5) SLKR AOE (focus JKL to help reduce his accuracy)
 * 6) BSF Ability Block JML
 * 7) SLKR Basic JKR
 * 8) DR Force Storm JKR
 * 9) Traya Isolate JKL (adds Daze, tenacity down, perhaps other debuffS)
 * 10) BSF Shock JKR
 * 11) SLKR Poke GAS
 * 12) SLKR AOE repeatedly while in Ultimate, focus non-GL as can't reduce GL mastery
 * 13) Take out JKR, Hoda, JKL then JML

OLD Turn order - seemed unreliable:
 * 1) Wat Tank Tech SLKR (not weapon tech)
 * 2) SLKR aoe
 * 3) BSF Fear JML
 * 4) DR Force Storm JML (not Insanity as JML not lead). Don't use Fear on JKR even if JML not taunting?
 * 5) SLKR Poke GAS as he's the most dangerous (not JKR/JKL/JML)
 * 6) Traya Isolate JML (can Isolate JML as he is not in the leader slot)
 * 7) BSF Wild lightning JKL
 * 8) SLKR aoe
 * 9) DR Fear JKL (JKL is immune, but Fear will spread to others)
 * 10) SLKR Poke GAS
 * 11) Traya Special JKL
 * 12) SLKR aoe repeatedly while in Ultimate

Notes:
 * Counter may not work against very fast JKR teams

= JKL lead =

SLKR/DR/BSF/Traya/Wat
Turn order:
 * 1) Wat Tank Tech SLKR (not weapon tech)
 * 2) SLKR aoe
 * 3) BSF Fear JML
 * 4) DR Force Storm JML (not Insanity as JML not lead and both JML/JKL immune to Fear)
 * 5) SLKR Poke JML
 * 6) Traya Isolate JML, reduce cooldowns of BSF (can Isolate JML as not in leader slot)
 * 7) BSF Wild lightning JKL (or Fear again as cooldowns reduced by Traya). If JKL has counter-attack both, pick someone else.
 * 8) SLKR aoe
 * 9) DR Fear JKL (JKL is immune, but Fear will spread to others)
 * 10) SLKR Poke GAS
 * 11) Traya Special JKL
 * 12) SLKR aoe repeatedly while in Ultimate

Notes:
 * may not work if BSF doesn't land debuffs on JKL! If JKL gets a turn and 100% counter-attack buff, then you won't want to target him

SLKR/DR/BSF/Traya/Vader
Enemy comps:
 * JKL lead + JML + GAS/JKR/Wat
 * JKL lead + JML + Hoda/Old Ben/Wat

Turn order:
 * 1) SLKR aoe
 * 2) BSF fear JML
 * 3) Vader Merciless Massacre JML
 * 4) Vader Force Crush JML
 * 5) Vader Culling Blade JKR (or Old Ben - unfortunately death grants buffs, but not Hoda because he has crit immunity)
 * 6) Vader Ability Block others. If Wat still alive and Force Crush reset, use on JML again
 * 7) DR Force Storm JML (not Insanity?)
 * 8) Traya Isolate JML - CD decrease on Vader (maybe someone else better)
 * 9) BSF Ability Block on JML (not Wild Lightning?)
 * 10) Kill JML last. Very tanky, so may want to put on auto otherwise may timeout

Notes:
 * SLKR should use AOE to grant advantage to protect non-FO toons when needed
 * Do not focus JKL when he counter-attack buff with any but Vader's Culling Blade, as JKL counter-attacks will wreck squad

Videos:
 * SLKR vs JKL lead w JML/Wat

SLKR/DR/BSF/Traya/Thrawn
Enemy comp: JKL/JML/Hoda/Wat/OB


 * 1) Han Solo stun Wat
 * 2) Wat Tank Tech SLKR (not weapons tech)
 * 3) [if Wat still alive] SLKR poke Wat
 * 4) Focus GAS (or OB) if present

Vader
I win with Vader, Traya, Thrawn, Wat and Bast Fallen. Time your debuffs right not to waste your AOE when they have tenacity up. Focus on keeping everyone ability blocked and isolate JKR. Thrawn TM swap with a Traya to land isolate. Let him mark Traya after she isolates and fracture GL Rey if she’s on the team. Then next round of MM culling blade JKR first then whittle away everyone else https://www.reddit.com/r/SWGalaxyOfHeroes/comments/j73frk/jkl_counter_teams/

= Bastilla lead =

CLS lead

 * Rebels Power Through Jedi Master Luke (Bastila Lead + Wat)

SLKR/Wat/GG/B1/GBA
Gets to Ultimate very quickly!


 * 1) Wat Tank Tech SLKR
 * 2) SLKR aoe to protect allies
 * 3) Go nuts!

Notes:
 * SLKR should use AOE when possible to protect allies and build Ultimate. Don't worry about building Syphon early in the fight, because you'll be AOE'ing and Ultimating so much it won't matter. Later on, you may need to syphon a lot because JML is very tanky and you may risk timeout if you don't
 * Wat Med pac on GG
 * Wat Weapons tech on B1

SLKR/Hux/KRU/Sith Trooper/Han

 * SLKR, Hux, KRU, Sith Trooper and Han? Stun Wat. Then stun again. Then siphon and hopefully Wat is gone before moving? Bastila lead, JML, Wat, JKR and JKL Counter?
 * Tried above: worked, but barely - possibly Wat instead of Hux or Sith Trooper because they were of limited use

SLKR/Hux/KRU/Wat/Han
Works well. Only risk is poking Wat first, not GAS, but you need to otherwise Wat will probably put Tank Tech on JML. As long as your KRU can survive a few hits from GAS and others you'll be right, as the enemy offense is pretty pathetic.


 * 1) Wat Tank Tech SLKR
 * 2) Han Shoot First Wat
 * 3) SLKR Poke Wat (assuming relic Wat)
 * 4) Hux Swap TM SLKR
 * 5) SLKR AOE

= 3v3 = How are we going to beat GLs on defense in 3v3?
 * JKR, GAS +1 vs JML, add Han if Wat is on JML's team
 * DR, BSF, Wat should also be able to handle a JML trio.

JKL lead/Wat/JML
2 shot:
 * 1) Han/Chewy to kill Wat
 * 2) GAS 501st

= Other thoughts = https://www.reddit.com/r/SWGalaxyOfHeroes/comments/jfds5m/jml_counters_without_jkl/
 * JML lead: SLKR with SE (DR/BSF/Malak + Wat I assume)
 * JKR lead with Wat: SLKR with DR/BSF, Wat and Han: Han has to stun enemy Wat --> Your Wat gives tank tech to SLKR (for cleanse) --> SLKR uses 2nd ability to either stun or kill enemy Wat --> just use AOEs to try to get SLKR as fast as possible. You can't let Wat give tank tech to JML and try to keep GAS stunned.

https://www.reddit.com/r/SWGalaxyOfHeroes/comments/jk16gr/tips_on_beating_jmls/
 * JKR lead, GAS, Wat, JKL, and JMLS: SLKR with Grievous/B1/GBA/Wat, tank tech on SLKR to dispel debuffs and aoe all the way

https://www.reddit.com/r/SWGalaxyOfHeroes/comments/l09ors/help_struggling_against_jedi_master_luke_and_wat/
 * DR lead/Kylo/Wat/Han/BSF - Kill order is Wat, JKR, GAS, JKL, JML.
 * I personally siphon JKL so he loses accuracy. He won’t be able to hit you after a few AoE’s.

Stun Wat then Weapon Tech on DR. After this make sure to keep shock on JML and fear on Gas. Never failed unitl now. https://www.reddit.com/r/SWGalaxyOfHeroes/comments/jgm78a/anybody_know_a_reliable_counter_for_this_asking/
 * DR BSF Malak Solo and Wat
