So Gundros playstyle is literally; Come closer bro I swear I wont jump you

[Terrified_Dartanyan]

I love how this dude stabs his own head with his tail, cool detail and amazing design choice. actually this unit is both designed cool in both strategy and looks

[victini]

So far, conjure units are like legitimately fun to use, Dino and Gundros being prime examples. While not being OP good, they're easily one of the best ubers we've gotten in terms of gameplay

[williamsadell]

Very good review, the only thing I disagree with is that you say his summon doesn't have synergy with his kit. I find that if you bait enemies in then use the summon, they won't get knocked out of his range even if they do end up getting knocked back. If you let them walk right up to him and hit the summon right as the big lad starts his attack then both the summon and gundaros will hit. The freeze makes certain that they can't push after being knocked back, this means the big man won't get knocked back mid animation.

Honestly, I love the idea of this guy having an absolutely massive windup but doing insane damage whenever it hits. The big thing I'd change is giving it more piercing range so it lands more often.

When a mommy GUN and a daddy GUN love each other very much...

Ponos really said “Fuck Le’noir in particular” with that knock back ability

[jaxonanderson]

Dragon emperors have been cooking with these last 3 Ubers

[pbToast]

I honestly hope his true form buff is mainly just a huge range and/or damage boost to make it even more compelling to forsake traditional attacker stacking for Gunduros baiting

[sans_the_comic_]

Awesome review, I literally just got this unit and I'm very excited to use him. Great design, cool animation, and his playstyle reminds me of Orbital Annihilator (one of my favorite units) but more niche and heavy hitting.

[celestialtimesquid]

I think this entire video was just a ploy for XSkull to make a joke about pleasuring oneself.

[daniel]

i love the mood swings on these rankings it goes like 'yea this guy is horrendous at doing anything' to 'yooo he actually fucks up the traits hes meant to fuck up' and then back to 'oh yea i forgot this guys actually really fat, slow, ugly and wont do anything'

[quijassajiuq]

That’s such a good attack animation lmfao

[yangyc-qr]

Chillhola and xskull be using the same stages for gundros demo. Cool vids i watched both of em

Better late than never...

Kasli the Bane is a very powerful unit when it comes to stats. The combination of high health and 5 knockbacks leads to her staying alive for a long time when summoned. Thanks to the powerful Surge, she is also able to deliver high and consistent damage to midrangers and backliners, such as Le'noir and R.Ost, while also intercepting incoming peons and keeping enemies that are extremely easy to knockback at bay, such as Gory variants, Brollow, Rain D. and Mr. Puffington. Lastly, she can even be used for "base trapping": if you have her hit a base and trigger a boss wave, her Surge will instantly hit and severely cripple anything that comes out, sometimes making a massive difference. Just remember that due to her blindspot and most of her damage being concentrated in the surge, she will not perform too well against Zombies, short ranged pushers like Bore or One Horn, as well as surge-immune enemies. However, a tanky unit can cover her blind spot, making her usage even more viable.

Damage isn't all she has though: her Curse ability lets her disable enemies' Knockback, Slow, Freeze, Weaken, Warp, Curse, Dodge Attack and Toxic abilities. Since it has good uptime, this makes her even more useful against enemies with annoying abilities like Super Metal Hippoe, Li'l Doge, Crazed Axe Cat, Henry, Winged Pigge, Gobble, Heavenly Herald Papuu, Bakoo and all Relics. There are, however, rare instances in which her Curse ability can be counterproductive, such as against some units with Warp, who would become unable to warp any attackers they reach to safety. This is most notable against Final Boss Giga God.

Her immunities to Wave Attacks, Warp, Curse, Weaken and Surges further help her with the threat posed by such abilities, especially in Uncanny Legends, Cats of the Cosmos and The Aku Realms where they are prominently active.

Overall, she's an extremely powerful unit that holds her edge all the way into the endgame and has almost no drawbacks.

[MartinLucaq]

It's really useful for when completing into the future

[VerticalX]

I got Gundros first try in the 11 rare ticket draws.

Edit: I'm also using it early-game
(It's level 25) Much more useful compared to the other two ubers I have.

[notad-class]

This is still technically a dragon as it is most likely a salamander type dragon species 🤓

[Jj_Sandia]

What are the odds to fucking get gunduros 3 fucking times in a 11 draw on a guaranteed Uber banner
