GBO2 RX-0 Unicorn Gundam: It can one combo generals?!

- I won't go much into analysis or discussion on the nitty gritty for Unicorn since we don't have the hard numbers for all of it yet. So these will be my first impressions after 10 games with the Unicorn Gundam on stream.
Unicorn Gundam is a 4 star 700 cost general unit with insane damage (in NT-D) and insane bulk (in Awaken mode). Your main strategy will be to get damaged enough to reach 80% HP or less then immediately activate the NT-D. Your melee damage in NT-D becomes absolutely ridiculous and you can even kill some generals in a single combo. In this video I was also using a Learning Computer+Melee Modifier build to further increase the damage. You have two great stuns to open up with. The Beam Magnum which has 3600 power along with splash like a bazooka and a shrapnel bazooka very similar to the one found on Stark Jegan.
From the few games I have played in it so far, I feel like Unicorn Gundam might be the strongest or one of the strongest 700 cost suits so far. The sheer melee power is unmatched even by the Sinanju it feels like. I plan to play this suit a lot more over the coming week and upload a better game with it. This match was 208k damage but I feel like I played sloppy and that 230k or higher is possible when played well. I will also go into a lot more detail on the stats and skills when that video comes out so stay tuned.

@@borgar1765 There is a competitive scene for GBO2. It is called Clan Match.
@@avenger1_gbo260 gbo is inherently incapable of being anything remotely close to "competitive" net code and gacha being just two of many reasons. And that's a good thing, competitive focus ruins multiplayer games.
GBO2 doesn't have a competitive focus though so you don't need to worry about that. It is a sideshow but people definitely are very dedicated to it. Bandai did say online that they wanted to take competitive seriously for Gundam Evolution and GBO2 though so it might change.
If only activating NT-D had a voiceline trigger of banagher screaming “unicorn!!”
Part of me really wanted you to inlay the vocal mix when you triggered Awakened, but holy moly this thing is the epitome of a "Monstrous Mobile Suit", great video.
Thank you!
I had some games with it too, it was worth the wait and the melee damage came in nicely, even if it's quite tricky to time it when to use ntd since I had a hard time paying attention to my hp.
Haven't tried the learning computer yet either but might give it a go
It is my favourite 700 now. It encourages such a fun aggressive playstyle.
The Unicorn basically shifts between General and Raid in its two forms. One can notice the way the damage dramatically shifts from Ranged Strength to Melee Strength in a bllink of an eye once you go from NTD to Awakened. Activating NTD will challenge your survivability skills while you take this form, so you better bring your A game if you plan to stick around until it's time to Awaken, which will restore 7000 HP and gets you ready to go.
I thought the beam magnum was gonna be a bit cumbersome to use at first, until I saw that its charge time is pretty quick. Its shots explode like a bazooka and it can stun pretty well once you score a hit. The shrapnel bazooka seems underrated because of the way you have to line your shorts well enough to do decent damage, but being a subweapon, that may serve as good practice if you use a MS that equips it as its main gun.
And IMO, don't skimp on using its head vulcans in a pinch. With around 125 damage and 60 bullets, that's actually plentiful! I've tested it out while using the Unicorn in some engagements and I found that you can stun an enemy with the vulcans while scoring decent damage on them. That'll help if either the beam magnum or shrapnel bazooka aren't done reloading.
Overall, I think the Unicorn is a fantastc MS to have, and you can give Nu Gundam, Sazabi, Qubeley(s) and Kshatrya users a hard time as well, since NTD causes their psycocommu weapons to be jammed, limiting some of their arsenal.
Great showcase of the RX-0. Definitely lends to its potential.
I have seen some elite players get 240k with it already. This isn't even the full showing of its potential which is crazy lol.
@@avenger1_gbo260 Yeah, I bet. People can learn based on what you're able to do. It's only a matter of time. Still a great job on figuring things out.
I didn't save my coins for the unicorn gundam and now im getting smacked by one in every round! xD!
You should have seen my face when one negated my Moon Gundams barrier. I went for a barrier block on low hp, and it just rejected the deploy.
I SCREAMED as it rushed towards me when I had no boost left. MY ASS WAS TOAST!
I love this game.
It is really sad for Moon Gundam players since Unicorn straight up negates the best parts of your loadout. Maybe a rework is in order for the funnel jamming.
Dudes real talk the Unicorn chad walked me all the the way from ground rank C- all the way to A- within a few days of playing ranked matches with it
I suppose Banshee with claws would be coming as raid unit soon.
I’m waiting till Monthly reset to do the Unicorn step up. Definitely gonna build 50 melee and beam resistance on it.
50 melee resistance is a must unless you wanna be killed in one combo by NT-D Unicorn now
U must have the patience of a saint.. the only way I can last that long without pulling is if I don't have enough coins for it, and if they give away enough I should be able to get all the steps so I'm gonna go pull, like now lol
@@lottidhundabolt4259 I’m in the 460s rn. I’ll have 18 from monthly missions and sims combined and then I’m planning to get the discount 60 token pack. So I’ll be well over or about 600 when I actually roll which will give me about 220 to play with for the rest of anni.
@@willstaub6581 so you are a Saint then! I got just enough coins to pull the unicorn and have 15 left over for when I will have to buy that 60 pack and probably another $100 pack to get the Banshee whenever it drops, hopefully sometime during this month as well...
@@lottidhundabolt4259 eh ive been telling people for days to wait
then we got this plus new battle sim
should wait todo either for faster monthly medals with the exception of freebies and the current mini step up which wont be around when month changes same w the anniversary free tokens even if u wait to take those itll countem for last month
but any tokens u buy get from battle sim and recylce tickets from unicorn step up plus unicorn itself as a monthly suit all go to monthly missions and medals
anytime a new battle sim gets announced always look at the date and jf its close enough try and wait todo them till post month roll over
They have unleashed the monstrous god of possibility upon us
I'm just sad about my Moon Gundam and Sazabi. The Moon pretty much got thrown into the grave with this thing and Sazabi is pretty much beyond unviable.
I am also very sad about it. Sazabi used to be my favourite 700 but as you say it is way worse off now. Moon has become practically a throw pick since it relies entirely on its plates for attack and defence. I hope they rework the psycommu jack to be less impactful
@@avenger1_gbo260 I think both of us are happy to say how poorly this comment aged.... for Moon anyway. Sazabi's still kind of depressingly stuck as just a worse Sinanju by this point.
So they balanced NTR by dropping its health during activation
Not a bad decision actually
It is an interesting balance. Technically you gain more than you lose if you activate Awaken mode ASAP to get 6000 HP.
You mean NTD?
@@RX0_GundamUnicorn yeah NTD, lissen with how close R and D are on my phone, allow me a couple typos dammit 🤣🤣🤣
@@KokuRou there's actually an Azur Lane joke going around a character named Unicorn retrofit because of an nhentai about her stealing the commander who is about to be married to her sister from her
Of course they release this right before the 700 cost clan match this weekend...
Kill me now
Stacks of Unicorns are definitely gonna roll over 700 clan match. Especially since it's on Underground Base
@@avenger1_gbo260 Yep, definitely not looking forward to it
@@AjaxJP bunch of unicorn ungabunga brains trying to melee spam? sounds like perfect time to zaku3/4 and enjoy all the people downing each other with drive by heavys and fisticuffs
Mobile Suit Gundam: Unicorn Operation 2
Not gonna lie I maxed out beam resistance on my suits and the beam magnum absolutely trashed them from that unicorn, that and the fact it can outright smoke most suits in it's cost , idk fam this might get nerfed because it's a little overwhelming.
I definitely didn't expect it to be this strong. It is fun but definitely unbalanced. A slight tune down is certainly in order.
@@avenger1_gbo260 I think the developers knew it would draw in a nice bit of new players and wanted to show off but I agree it needs to be balanced better , unless they'll do it quietly at a later date
It's satisfying seeing the sinanju get slaughtered lol. As someone who skipped the banner It's a pain fighting against it
all i see are team mates use it rush in and die since it dropped trying to unga bunga
its like all the sazabi mains just jumped right over to just try and rush and melee spam people w sinanju
I have fought a Gundam Unicorn with a Xamel before and lemme tell you...If you keep landing your hits, it won't even get near you, especially with the missiles to clean them up.
This thing is gonna get some crazy changes, been a tyrant of 700 for a few months now. I don't even know if making the beam-magnum stop-to-fire would be enough of a nerf because in the show the Unicorn's never moving while firing it and is always 2-handing it. I am so curious on what they plan for the changes on this machine.
"I'M FINALLY FOUND WHAT I WAS LOOKING FOR!!!!!"
Feels like a damn Bossfight with the 3 phases of the Unicorn but you're playing the boss. The damage is fucking bonkers in NT-D though gotta be careful with the HP drain....
Actually does base repair or just any repairs outheal the HP drain in NT-D???
Yes base repair or pilot repair will outpace the HP drain. Phase 3 Unicorn just cheats and gets back a good chunk of HP. This isn't Elden Ring lol....
Gundam Bossfight
it's roughly 4500 total hp drained from activating NT-D, but you get 6000 back when you trigger Awakened, and stops further drain. (I wanna say it's 70-100 hp/s drain)
I have a feeling when the Banshee comes out it'll be a raid and twice as deadly in melee
I could totally see that. Banshee isn't seen carrying the beam magnum or bazooka so it will probably have worse shooting. But it has that vibro nail claw thing.
@@avenger1_gbo260 It does have a rail cannon. The banshee does get its own magnum but it cant use it in destroy mod with the armed armors
Now we all now know why banagher's father gave it to him because it is Powerful and Banagher is the One who unlock it full power
I miss the unicorn before debuff
I just played with Ryu not so long ago, they're an okay pilot :D
I had a winning streak with the Unicorn, its so unreal lmao
Also, I aced Unicorn the second I got it, been steamrolling the enemy team since this morning XDDD
Damn dude. You are smacking your allies just as much as the enemy. Strong skill tho
it looks cool in titans tes team colors!
I always wondered how the awakened ability worked. I thought you had to have another unicorn or Phenex on your team in order for that to happen
It is just spending enough time in NT-D and you can turn it on
@@avenger1_gbo260quite a cool mechanic, hopefully the banshee Norn will have it if they release it
This suit very much seems like a if you get staggered your only real choices are to pray you have more hp than they have thrust
im saving till the 1st of august before i roll so cant answer this myself quite yet. How are the vulcans? Are they like the GP02 and able to break through manorver armor? Also dear god that damage is insane
Yeah they are exactly like GP02. They fire really fast and stun in 17 shots. Great to combo from shrapnel bazooka if that alone doesn't stun.
@@avenger1_gbo260 shrapnel bazooka is able to get through manouver armour? Huh did not know that. Awesome definetly cant wait to get my hands on this. Never used a suit that relies on melee combos with more than on weapin so this will be interesting.
How did u do twice back attack with same melee weapon.. It is supposed to have cooldown right?
Unicorn melee in NT-D has only 2 seconds of cooldown. So it is very easy to downswing with sabers, downswing with tonfa and then downswing with sabers again all in one combo
@@avenger1_gbo260 owh OK thanks for the tips... I only do it 2 time only.. Saber downswing then tonfa... I Never knew that it can use saber again for 2nd time..... Will try it
Got the suit and it's ridicilous but my only problem is what build to use. Plannedon using reloaders and beam and melee resistance but dunno. Could I use ur build for testing?
Melee mod lvl 4, 3 and 2. Learning Computer. Melee armour lvl 3 and 2. Beam armour lvl 3 and 1.
I thought I I-field from my ExS would keep me safe. Ha thought ! This suit is a beast 😢
いやいや、本当に上手すぎる…

Is the good combo, Down Swing Double sabers->Downswing Tonfa->Down Swing Sabers?
Yep that is the best combo to use. If you are doing the combo vs a support then you can start with neutral downswing double sabers but otherwise keep the rest the same.
@@avenger1_gbo260 cool, I was waiting for August Swapover to do all my pulls and tokens so I've been doing my research, I have more than enough saved to get Unicorn but I'm hoping it drops early so I can save for my boy the Banshee
I guess skipping on the shrumzum wasn't so bad after all
Schuzrum is great but Unicorn may end up defining 700 cost for a while now
@@avenger1_gbo260 yeah and it's fun from range to (technically) raid play
Didn't expect to be this fun
Waiting for the month reset is killing me i want to pull unicorn but i must be wait
what it means when changing colors?
This video is old so the effect is different from what you see in the match, but when it changes to green from red it has stat changes. It decreases melee and shooting modifier by like 40 but it no longer has its HP drained by NT-D and it takes like 16% less damage from all sources.
that nu gundam getting the counter on you was serious bs
also fun fact the nt mode and the ifield on transformed unicorn are bugged as fuck
ive had times where an enemy nt mode wasnt jamming my funnels and ive seen shots behind and to the right side or literally from below in space get a “shield” hit mark shooting enemy unicorns on the super gundam today where other times ive straight railed them from long range thru an angle that should of been the shield zone
its a hilariously bad mess rn w its hitboxes and area of effect of the nt mode
From what I understand. NT-D psycommu jamming only works if you are caught in the initial 200m AoE. The shield definitely has a ghost hitbox or something. Way bigger than it seems.
@@avenger1_gbo260 yeah at times its near bloody full 360 all angles its dumb
also that makes sense or would if not for me losing my incoms or funnels a few times as an nt uni was rushing me after it had been up a lil while
its a bit buggy it seems
also im curious what the post 4 min boost stat wise is on the custom part
seems expensive as hell for 3% boosts then a mystery further boost later
What exactly does Awakened mode do? I can't really tell from watching Gameplay alone.
From what we know so far. It restores 6000 HP on initial activation. Makes you take 20% less damage. Takes away 20 ranged and melee modifier. Dunno if it increases mobility or anything yet.
@@avenger1_gbo260 Understood.
yooooo mgrr reference
I got my unicorn today it requires too much effort and maybe decrease the ho drain for the NTD would be better
It can be weird to play around the HP drain mechanic but it is worth playing more to learn. IMO even if you don't activate the NT-D you can do a lot of damage with just beam magnum, shrapnel and vulcans since the Unicorn has 50 range mod outside of NT-D.
To me the unicorn is worth the money I spent but it needs some tuns not modifications we put on i don't like that when you use NTD the range decreases the only downfall to NTD
4k dmg to Sinanju on the tonfa neutral...
Wait. Does beam magnum beat MA lvl1?
Nope. It is a normal stagger with 10% stun value.
I'm glad this thing got nerfed.
Lag seems to be a bit bad on this round.
Sometimes is if the host is laggy
Strange
We're all fucked
OP the suit on purpose to try and force ridiculous purchases for a free game only to nerf the suit once enough people have bought in. Rinse and repeat.
Personally I didn't spend any money to get Unicorn. I saved up WELL in advance.
Holy shit that final score... Is the unicorn even beatable? Seems like it's the new 700 meta.
Isn't this mech kind of overpowered?
I am leaning towards yes after playing it more
Supports mains like me are crying here
700 needs good support mains to hunt Unicorn down. This thing is such a huge threat.
