Stress kills it as everyone says. use debris fields, take a stresshog or stress-whatever-the Arc-stress-setup-is-called.... I have recently started using this Dengar set up as I have never used the JM5K, even after buying 2. But the stresshog scares the **** out of me, even 1 turn of hogging can shut it down for 2 turns, Hog slow rolls in, and even if you cause 0 damage, the 2 stress is a total pain.

I've faced Assaj and stresshog/baron and SnapTac Rhymer with Expertise Dengar and I've rarely found myself getting stressed by any of them when I'm not prepared for it. The beauty of Expertise along with K4 is that your action is completely free to Barrel Roll at your convenience, or take focus to use when Assaj stresses you at the start of the round.
