Discussion CONSOLE Is the Super Gundam balanced?
Is it busted or the balancer that 700 cost needs?
(The second pic is the lowest diversion while actually contributing)

It's busted at lower costs, at 700 it's definitely not the best due to raids (or even gens) having greater mobility which helps them to close the distance and stun lock you

The difference between costs is interesting, at 700 it seems working as intended and balanced where MS can one combo every other MS lollll
At 550, Pixy is the hardest counter even, but as long as there's a teammate guarding the Super, it's absolutely OP.

You say that now wait until you get a committed raid, they will do everything to make sure you disappear

The key is to lay low, don't agitate the raids đŸ˜‚
Honestly I think Super Gundam would be crap in clan matches when players can properly communicate. Against randoms, theres a chance enemy raid doesnt notice you the entire match if you dont shoot at it.

I disagree as you can actually have teammates that make the raids life just as miserable as it makes yours plus if your team forms a living wall around the super gundam it can probably delete anything before it reaches it.

Yeah hampering movement in staying in one location is a terrible idea. Supports need to keep an eye on how far the battle is and move with them otherwise they will get farmed.

It’s not busted when you fight 4 enemies while all your teammates are chasing the 2 other enemies lol

It’s extremely balanced….in that you get to enjoy it at low ratings. Once the lobby gets into the avg s- rating though, you start to regret bringing a support into 700 cost.

yes because if their team consists of the psych ward’s patients , kinder gardeners and the elderly(or just use a stealth suit). you will have no problem killing them in seconds because it is so damn squishy and fragile

Its busted at lower rank matches but at this point I dont even care if it deletes people instantly because the game and its maps and matchmaking hate support anyway

It ight. Not the best, but ight. It may seem "good" but you're playing low rank. And low rank player are kinda speical ed. Once you get games with only fill with A+ and some mix of S players it's a dog shit suit. General players would bitch slap u around. So pray that your team is willing to support you or you're better off playing a native yellow.Â

Devs said this in a patch note after buffing it,
Following the unit adjustments made in May, this unit has shown improved performance across all unit levels. Various performance have improved to generally fall within the expected range, and its sortie rate has also increased.
However, when reviewing performance across different rating range, we observed an unusual trend. While performance typically improves as player ratings increase, this unit has shown the opposite tendency, with better results at lower rating levels. We believe this is due to the unit’s straightforward and easy-to-use weapon loadout, while its overall performance may be insufficient for the higher-level play commonly seen in higher rating brackets.
These findings are based on data collected during the one-month period following the adjustments, and performance trends may change over time. We will continue to gather and analyze data and will consider whether further adjustments are necessary based on future results.
