- Gundam Evolution Season 2 is here and Nu Gundam has landed!
This suit looked very strong in the early trailers but will that power translate to actual gameplay? With a bazooka, funnels, and a gigantic shield it's hard to imagine it won't.
So should you unlock Nu Gundam? Hopefully this video can guide you to a decision.
If you enjoyed this gameplay and commentary you can check me out live on Twitch!

Actual conversation I had with my friends, "Have you seen the new gundam?" "Which one?" "Nu gundam" "yea, which one one is the new gundam?" "Nu Gundam" "which Gundam?" "Nu Gundam" "Ohhhhh"
Lol best coversation
Who’s on first?
Is it new? kek
@@Name-se3lf lol
Same energy when I tried to watch the season 2 dev post without subs
Another thing to mention is that this thing is actually kinda big. You can't take cover as effectively.
I have noticed that too. 1200 HP actually doesn't end up being a lot when you're an easier target.
honestly, i thought it soudned OP but props to bandai namco, seems like they did a really good job on this kit! Really good kit overall but once you learn to play against it, seems quite balanced.
I agree that I think Nu needs some buffs. Maybe I had my expectations too high because Nu gundam is my favorite in the Gundam franchise, but I feel like he could use some tweaks. The bazooka and also the ult just feel really weak. I also think it was a weird choice to have the funnels go to a location and then just sit there to shoot the target rather than actively following them around. Idk why but I expected some kind of tracking on them, so it feels weird that they miss decently often, especially on highly mobile suits like Exia. I'd prob accept a reduction to their damage if it just meant their damage was more guaranteed and didn't miss.
It's weird seeing a nu gundam that can't use his iconic beam saber or punch the shit out of someone. Also having his beam rifle switch between rapid and a single fire to emulate the burst select feature wouldve made the suit better while pleasing fans. (Which is weird cause in the trailer the nu gundam was show rapid firing his br like in the anime)
@@masterkent1 trailer is slow but in game Nu shoot almost as fast as in anime because his damage sucks
Nu is fine when played with a team. It has really high damage potential, but it's also an easier target. Its ult is also very strong for contesting objectives
I hope they add beam sabers as melee attack like a knife in CS
I just started playing it a day ago and I'm hooked but I did notice no beam sabers for the GM unit. hopefully it'll come along as the game picks up on consoles
I think he needs a slight buff. The base Gundam is significantly better than Nu. Like, no contest. Nu is incredibly fun, but fun doesn't win games. I suppose you could argue his ultimate wins games, since you can defuse safely (sort of) but thats kind of it.
I dunno. Nu Gundam feels....incredibly weak to me. Maybe I'm just terrible at him. I don't know what it is, but like...I can't hit anything with it. I can play the RX-78 pretty well, and I can play Turn-A decently enough(Even with his charge up rifle mechanics). And I feel like Turn-A's shooting is very similar to Nu Gundam, but like...I can't hit shit with Nu Gundam to even build up any funnel stacks. And when I do finally get 1 or 2 stacks, I'm pretty much getting bulldozed and at 200 hp and dead.
RX-78 isn't that much better than Nu. They both have basic kits and pretty high damage potential, and they both have utility for different situations. The main advantages RX-78 has are a smaller hitbox and 2 dashes
@@Harmonic14 And a stun. And a..1200? Hp shield? Way better kit than Nu. And RX-78 definitely has a higher damage floor.
@@deitzj That big hit box is unforgiving. You're an easy target and by the time you start doing any real damage, the whole enemy team has started shooting you.
I think his vakues are fine but his controls feel... as you put it, "awkward". Why can mahiroo's bombs or methus' turret keep up after death but Nu's funnels can't continue after launched when dead? Then the matter of the cannon... it's a nice utility to dodge AND deal damage hut I think a default button press should keep you still to shoot jt rather than force a movement. I also think funnels should deal damage to a shielded target only when the beams hit behind the shield. It definitely feels like a mid range class and has great potential even with ita current values but I definitely think it could "feel" better.
Personally all Gundams seem to be balanced which is something ive never imagine i would ever say bout any game like this. It all boils down to which one is your favorite and you feel more comfortable playing
Just found this you man, you’re underrated. enjoying your content
Thanks! Glad you're enjoying it.
bazooka count as ground skill as long as you don't jump dash will refill while using it so Nu can do 1 half dash and 2 dash
Dom as well only has one dash, and I’d say he falls into that mid range category too! Great vids tho man, I love what your doing for the community
Thanks!
Can't believe I forgot Dom. He's so slippery that I guess it slipped my mind that he also only has 1 dash.
had some good time with nu on ranked. the suit is good if the map is more open. def not a suit for tight quarter fights. the quick firing rate + rapid reload + funnel is very good at chipping and picking low health enemy.
one interesting thing i've noticed on the nu gundam japanese tooltips is that it says funnel mark will be applied to the target hit by bazooka. guess they've removed it prior to season2 launch but didnt update the jp tooltips
The launcher still marks them. It counts as 2 shots of the weapon though. It won't stack to 3.
great video man!
Thanks!
To kill with nu gundam funnels i use them after the tagged enemy dashes thats what works for me a lot
I think I saw you on console. Amazing match!
The issue with nu gundam is probably the huge hit box being close to sazabi sized, so you normally end up getting focused because of how easy it is to hit nu gundam. Ult and bazooka definitely needs some buffs to be good, but the suit is honestly not worth the capital for f2p.
Console is out! So I'm so happy I can play now. And the new map has a hard choke area I hate!
There few things that i downright dint like about its kit or feels kinda off.
Fin Funnels deal 200 dmg each - 0 mark = 200 dmg / 1 mark = 4 funnels = 800 dmg / 2 mark = 6 funnels = 1200 dmg
What i dont like about this funnels :
Everytime you shot an enemy, his HP bar surely have gone half then you contemplating if you wanna full mark or no mark to spawn the funnels. But when you cast the skill, the enemy already dead by your rifle, or your team finish them off, or the funnels way to slow to track the enemy, OR your funnels most of the time only do the cleanup job of removing knockdown mobile suits. And not to forget you cant mark any shielded unit like sazabi or GM. I was hoping you can mark shielded enemy straight away and burn their shield.
second, his rifle. I do not know for the life of me, why is it so hard to land hits. My sniping on GM Sniper and RX/MARASAI way easier and more accurate to hit. His left click is everywhere when you not even spamming. When you right click to zoom well you move too slow enemy will pick you off easily.
Third is Ult. His ult for me is downright useless. How to counter it ? easy. Just use guntank plane explode inside, or ask your barbatos to only ult when Nu gundam ults, because his ult downright phase through Nu gundam ult, kill nu inside. OR ask your exia to right click dash hit the Nu gundam, what happen is i dash hit enemy nu gundam yesterday at harbour city while he ult, and he fallen off the platform into the sea because exia dash has knockback. lol.
And lastly he's stupidly tall with his funnel on shoulder. easily get hit.
Also most Funnel attack can be dodge by only dashing and high mobility like Dom, shield user can dash and use shield to block rest funnel from opposite dash u do, basically trash skill without any purpose to get advantage from mechanic in game
Only to solve it is giving mark on shield MS so the skill is for Shield destroyer (since they slow when shielding, all funnel can hit em)
Imagine being Tank Stat but no recovery/shield to tank, only ulti that took long time to charge
about the one dash of the Nu Gundam, you can actually use your hyper bazooka to instantly boost your dash meter up to 75% don't know if that is intentional or not
Oh interesting. I'll have to see if I can get that to work.
I don't think this actually works. I still get a basic dash cooldown after using my bazooka. I've tried it multiple, multiple times after seeing this tip in other videos.
@@vewyscawymonsta it works for me I think the trick is you must be holding shift + forward and while mid sprint fire off the bazooka
@@jappy9264 I'm on console on controller, so there may be something I'm missing, but just using the bazooka doesn't refill my dash meter whatsoever. Possible there's something else that needs to be done, as you said, so I'll give that a try.
@@vewyscawymonsta ahh, alright goodluck 👍
i like the suit. but i just hate how the animation of aim down sight shot kick up the retical. i never get use to it
if you keep mouse still, it is 100% accuracy. but the animation it kick up like Mcree. which is annoying to track enemy after each shot when it kick up after shot and you think the aim is off so you aim down to correct it, than animation come back down which make the aim down. i never headshot very well with it. they need to fix the animation to be the same as Turn A aim down sight sho
its not showing up on my console store
i think adding a normal 800hp shield makes him good enough, the shield apepars on his MVP animation, wasted asset imo
Wait Headshot? Headshot? In a Gundam Game? Where the cockpit(except Sazabi) is in the cockpit?
cheese
The reason you started to see new players is probably because it just released on console.
I can barley stay alive in this game to tell the difference of anything....I don't know how you guys do it
It becomes a bit easier when you're more familiar with the maps so you know where the health packs are. Also sometimes you just have to stay out of combat for a bit so your passive healing kicks in.
Ulti has been buffed to 3200hp
Still melts instantly tho
yeah but enemy need to reload after that give enough time to defuse/plant/ulti at object :p
@@oratank if your allies do not got your back you die faster with ult lol
Is it true you have to buy characters with money?
You get enough to buy a character for free from the beginner missions, and each battle pass gives you enough for a single character as well. So you can get two characters as a f2p but not all of them
The problem people face now is there's 5 first Unlock Unit, u can get 2000 capital (the free currency) from Beginners mission to unlock new MS (about 1980 capital) and 2000 from Gamepass (which 2 new unit as new player)
The problem is, u can only get Capital From Gamepass only after finishing Beginners, and now they only give 2000 again in season 2 so u gated by limited currency to unlock all Unit (It's crazy new Season, Bandai Only add 1 new MS and only give us 2000 capital to unlock 1 MS)
Dashing backward or just generally around in a circle with the 3 dash speed characters causes the funnels to miss, transforming into a plane causes them to miss, backing to a wall with a shield causes them to hit only from the front, guntank dash causes them to miss, and the sniper jumpad causes them to miss. So the funnels are downright useless to the majority of the roster unless they happen to go down before hand. Twice on dom I was below 400 hp and had several fly at me and i just still had the same hp after the funnels, they just dont reliably hit.
The bazooka I use almost entirely for movement to stay at a distance as hes ok at midrange. The melee characters make such short work of him that cant really call him good would easily say sazabi is better against melee due to shotgun. The ult is good for teamfights and planting but little else. All and all I regret buying with the points as mahiro much stronger this patch, melee zaku/ exia far better at staying alive and dealing damage
By far unicorn is strongest when it comes to winning by a landslide, some games my enemies are so tightly glued to the front of unicorn that he cant die unless I ape him, needs to be one on every team as the ones without will constantly be low hp or split up trying to grab health packs that they get picked off. Second strongest is marusai; his ult is just an “I win” button and pre-firing around corners with the hook is just guaranteed to hit everyone for a free kill and only shields counter specifically the hook while the ult just doesnt care.
Exia is the best suit in the game easily. You win almost any 1v1 and get so much value if you can do anything more than just trade kills with the enemy team
@@Harmonic14Exia can get a lot of value but one hook and hes dead. You could argue to dodge it but there is no dodging the ult which he can build freely on your allies one free kill at a time. A good team will deathball while glued to the unicorn, if they have a methus as well theres no real dps a character has that can single any of them out, you have to get through and added 400 added to each of them plus the healing, even more if theres a dom or gm. Ive had games with an exia on both teams and the one that was getting healed and armored always won out so support skills are not to be underestimated. 1v1s just dont happen if they dont split up, especially on maps like harbor where its one big lane.
Biggest cheese is just running exia, barb and marasai with a unicorn cause you are forcing a 6v3
Each will stun removing a characters damage from the teamfight. On a side note bullying exia with guntank is pretty easy, no matter what guntank cannot miss so its a matter of time till downed.
I don't think it's overpowered or underpowered tho, maybe people is just too hyped up because it's nu gundam
The sentence you are looking for is "I think Nu is balanced".
Thing is, Nu has design conflicts. He has the health and ultimate of a frontline tank, with a medium range slowish firing weapon. His normal combat encourages him to act like a sniper, get shots in then deploy his funnels for a kill. His Ultimate on the other hand, is completely close range (If you want the damage portion of it).
Nu's greatest weakness is that he doesn't build stacks on shielded units. So Ironically.... Sazabi counters the Nu Gundam as the Saz shield prevents Funnel stacks, and Sazabi has noticeably more mobility with his dash skill. This means that in a 1 v 1 Sazabi has more options available to it.
He definitely needs some tweaks. His Ult is weak.
@@UltraKardas Nu is more of weak than balance Fin funnels need your enemies to depleted their dash so as a mid range your target won't need to dash anyway it like a skill that force them to dash back or destroy disable more than for kill
After so much waiting, they just give us one gundam. This season 2 kinda trash not gonna lie.
Anyway, I think Nu is in a good place right now. Feels quite balanced.
Nu is so broken fr fr trust on GOD got 47 kills, found a girlfriend, and won the lottery after I unlocked
