If there is one race that should be bad solo it should be xan; they can always fake and hope! Send three pod types and there is a good chance one will not be covered. Yet here xan is the most playable solo race.

Shhhh what does Zik and Etd bring to teams?
Zik Fr brings the clipper to target Bs against anything else it is just reliant on the other races. Zik Co and Cr brings a bit of killing to a Cat partner but this is again more a benefit to the Zik then the Cat. Zik Cr does not bring anything to the table for Xan - it just damages it by reducing its faking ability.
Etd De is clearly needed by Cats playing De. But Etd Bs is not immensely helpful to Terran except to emp fireblades that are 2nd target Bs anyway. Etd Fi does not benefit Xan Fi at all - again damaging faking possibilities - and brings little benefit to Ter Fi because they are so similar.
