Mobile Suit Gundam 00
NEW Gundam Kyrios
I actually really liked the Arios Gundam in Extreme VS, but the Kyrios was a bit underwhelming. It has a balanced mixed of moves, as well as a really sucky Vehicle mode. It's supposed to be a 300 unit, but it felt very weak.
Gundam Dynames
Has many projectiles, but very little ammo for each, and it's melee attacks are weak. Feels like he is faster than he was in Full Boost, but it also feels weaker. Not a fan.
Gundam Exia
A single suit for Setsuna?! Is this Gundam Versus?! The Exia remains a very strong and deadly close-range suit, with a decent amount of projectiles to make his approach. He doesn't feel as strong as he did in Full Boost though. Did they nerf every 00 suit?!
NEW Gundam Throne Zwei
I thought he looked kinda funny, but he proved to be a fun unit to use, I love his big-bad sword. His mid-range game is pretty decent too. One of my favorite new units so far.
NEW Gundam Throne Eins
Slow and powerful projectiles that recharge very quickly, and he can summon an assist to temporary increase his max stock ammo of said projectiles, this bad boy is quite a threat. And the kicker? His melee isn't half bad. I really enjoyed this one.
NEW Graham Union Flag Custom
Clunky projectiles, poor melee and lame vehicle mode... This unit blows. I guess he is a fun mook unit to bash around, but not to play as. Bring back the Susanowo!
NEW Tieren Taozi
Ugly as sin, can summon an NPC ally for a short while to aid her and her partner. Has a very neat selection of projectiles to pester enemies with, coupled with the NPC, can turn her into quite an annoyance. That said, it's still a 200 cost unit, so it doesn't have much stopping power.
NEW GN-X
Used to be a DLC unit in Full Boost, I never got to use it, but I'm sure it played exactly the same as it does now. It's one of the most solid 200 cost units around, decent beams and decent close-range attacks, with a dodge-jump as the cherry on top.
Mobile Suit Gundam Thunderbolt
NEW Psycho Zaku
A Zaku on drugs. Has this really neat Bazooka sub-weapon, he gets 8 non-replenishable shots that shoot alongside his machineguns. Very strong, nice amount of tools to work with, although you have to deal with the fact that this is a Zaku, so it has Bullets over beams. Still, the 8 bazooka rounds should help alleviate that, plus, charge the shoot attack to unleach a small beam rifle attack.
NEW Full Armor Gundam
The Full Armor Gundam is a long-range monster, with tons of projectiles that recharge very quickly. Its melee attacks are slow, but decent. I didn't like it as much as the Psycho Zaku, but it's a solid long-range unit.
Crossbone Gundam - Steel 7
Crossbone Gundam X1 - Full Cloth
The good news? X1 gets back the full cloth when going over cost. The bad news? It was hit with the nerf stick rather badly. Remember its strong beam and physical temporary boosts? Now they have a really long cool down time. It's still a VERY strong unit, but its drawbacks put it more in line with the rest of the cast... which is probably for the better.
BONUS
Gundam Heavyarms Kai
Back to the TV version of Heavyarms... I Don't mind, I like this color scheme more. His missiles are garbage, but his minigun can be devastating if you land an entire 40-round assault. He has two melee attacks, a very situational dive kick as well as a surprisingly powerful knife-spin attack... it might be a bit hard to land it, but if you do it will hurt. A lot. It's a shame it doesn't have more melee attacks(Come on, bash the enemy with the minigun!) since I love the design but it's too long distance-oriented for my liking.
