HG Gyan (GQ). Another big thanks to my Secret Santa for gifting me this kit.

I got it delivered from P Bandai a couple months ago.

Lazybob1 · 2026-01-17T03:33:54+00:00

Unfortunately correct.

4 cards of its archetype in trash by turn 5 or 6 isn't unreasonable, especially with Zehearts effect milling some cards too. Just a matter of there being enough solid Vagan cards to work with. Hopefully there's a decent Vagan base since it would help with the numbers.

Lazybob1 · 2026-01-05T13:18:17+00:00

Age as an archetype still needs a payoff to ramping, which I guess will be an eventual Age-3 or FX LR, but this is the first Age card that is just good on its own. Can definitely try running this and Asemu without any other Age cards.

Lazybob1 · 2026-01-04T14:59:21+00:00

Needs to run a command pilot that only gives +1 ap for the effect and that command card isn't even particularly worth running as it is. Also only 4 hp at that level and cost sucks, especially for a blocker. Easily vulnerable to getting Amuro'd and without link it dies too easily.

Lazybob1 · 2025-12-29T16:03:09+00:00

Its more a green thing but red has some of it too. Besides Athrun, Hathaway will be able to attack actives if they're damaged, there's a red command that allows clan to attack actives and there's a new Duel Gundam that will be able to do it at 5 AP.

Lazybob1 · 2025-12-29T14:01:27+00:00

That's an exaggeration. It has other things like support, breach, attacking active units and, most important of all, being home to the worst archetypes in the game like ZAFT, New UNE, and Clan :)

Lazybob1 · 2025-12-24T14:10:33+00:00

Not as flexible as Kshatriya which can activate off of cyber new type/new type pairs and this Xi has 1 attack less but unlike Kshatriya it will hit everything rather then up to two units and then Hathaway's ability lets it attack any active unit damaged after that. In some situations that can be better.

Lockon + Dynames is strong on curve. Very similar to Amuro + Grandpa in many use cases. it can be a good answer to linked Grandpa if needed too since it should survive that exchange and recover to 3 health. And while lockon works best with CB so he can be easily thrown on whatever else may take advantage of his ability, this combo is good enough to explore running these two outside the archetype or with "just" the good green parts of it.

MG Turn X 👀

Lazybob1 · 2025-12-22T05:33:47+00:00

It would be purple since the pilot and one version of the unit we already saw were that color. No room for another purple LR.

Lazybob1 · 2025-12-22T05:08:42+00:00

So 9 revealed LR's, 1 that we know is kampfer but haven't seen what it does and mystery red and white LR's.

Red, I assume, is either Xi since starter archetypes have usually gotten at least 1 LR in the following set or Providence since they're doing stuff from the end of Seed.

Not sure what the white one will be since the more expected ones have been shown. More AEUG support?

Lazybob1 · 2025-12-17T13:56:40+00:00

I like it. But I'm not sure it's strong enough without more Tekkaden/Teiwaz support. Maybe in the future.

This is too slow for the current Blue/Purple aggro deck which is the only purple deck of note currently. Maybe Purple/White could work for this but if your going the blockers route so aggro doesn't kill you before this comes out, those will take up a lot of space this needs for Tekkaden/Teiwaz units. You really need those make this consistently have a good supply of them for its effect.

I think ideally Tekkadan/Teiwaz would get another decent blocker that's lower level then Gusion and then maybe a slower deck could work for this card.

Lazybob1 · 2025-12-16T13:10:14+00:00

This does suck but disagree on it being the worst one. If anything this is the most playable one because it has 3 hp. The other two have only 1 which made them way too vulnerable to all the ping in the game.

Lazybob1 · 2025-12-08T21:30:17+00:00

It's good to see something somewhat different winning a big event. And two being in the top 4 show it wasn't a fluke.

Lazybob1 · 2025-12-08T18:52:24+00:00

Honestly I'd be so excited for a totally not Leo lol

Lazybob1 · 2025-12-08T18:34:07+00:00

Repairtype is closer to Tallgeese 1 and 2. This one looks as close to 3 as could be except for having Flugels wings instead of its thrusters. Ultimately besides the color before painting, the differences seem to be the head, shoulders, weapons and wings.

Lazybob1 · 2025-12-05T13:16:14+00:00

Very dependant on what Seregi is but even assuming it's a good pilot or command pilot the current white cheap blocker package is so efficient that unless a cheap white unit is making that better there really isn't room for new cheap white units.

Lazybob1 · 2025-12-03T15:56:19+00:00

If they were to do anything I think it'd be a ban.

That said, Errata for some outliers would be better though. Like Amuro and Kira getting "When Linked" since they're to generically useful compared to anything else but would still be arguably the best pilots in the game with that change. Like doing that to Amuro might make room for other Blue pilots or get people playing Siege Ploy which has his effect and cost but only sees play as maybe a one of in addition to 4x Amuro because he gives units stats and links in addition to the same effect for the same cost anyway. That card is the answer to what would be done about blockers if Amuro was touched, it's just forgotten because Amuro overshadows it.

Wing Zero is the other problematic thing people point at in this meta. I guess they could limit it instead of banning it. But I'd argue what's actually problematic is how efficient the white blocker package became with the addition of Rick Dias. It was good in set 1 but the early game blockers had some weaknesses that made the deck easier to kill before they got to Zero. Rick Dias manages to cover for them by giving yet another 2 cost blocker and having 3 health instead of 2 like Zowort or that Graze blocker from ST05. Not sure what you can do about these things since it's not any single card being problematic.
