I'm gonna start off by saying that I generally DESPISE 'tier' discussions, I think they're almost always a waste of time and brings nothing interesting to the table and never leads to any healthy or interesting discussion. And I still stand by that. But I still want to comment as a lot of the argument here makes absolutely no sense; in particular about how you bring up a lot of points against Manic Eraser, despite it can also be said the same about Cyberpunk, and vice versa. The worst offense is the lack of methodology on what's "better". 3:15 In Multiversal Studios for example, why is that you consider Normal Eraser to be the 'worst' one? I would consider normal eraser to be better than M.Eraser here if they both are at an appropriate level due to normal eraser's slow speed allowing you to not push as much, as you are discouraged to push too hard since that will trigger the Doge Base. Not to mention due the slow speed allows the thicker meatshielding density which also allows you to stall in 2 fronts better. When the main zombie peons unburrows, the stack of slow normal erasers will stall Musashi for a longer amount of time compared to M.Eraser which would immediately stack up and die. So what is the methodology on who's "better"? 3:40 In Jagando, Bellydancer from my experience is ABSURDLY expensive to use. It's very much possible to make the argument that M.Eraser is even a better choice than Cactus, as a 2s meatshield when timed properly can permastall Fallen Bear no matter if they oneshot them or not. Cone maybe destroys the stage idk I never tried him here because it feels silly to get Cone before beating Jagando when Jagando's expected progression is generally easier than getting Cone when M.Eraser is much more obtainable. You even mention this about Jetpack at 3:55 but still shows Cone anyways. So, what's the methodolody on who's "better"? 3:48 "The truth is you can beat nearly any stages with or without him" OK? You can say this to any units in the game, including Cyberpunk, so why does that dock M.Eraser's points but not Cyberpunk's? 4:04 "For many traits or genre of enemies M.Eraser just becomes filler" Most stages in the game are not mono-target enemies. Nearly every stages in the game are mixed traits. That's why Nekokhamen, Future or worse Bellydancer are not used as much - because they instantly melt when literally any other enemies hit it. Also putting Roe as a ''main meatshield'' for red stage is also crazy as most Red enemies hits incredibly hard and Roe is used almost exclusively for Prof.A. 4:08 "Most of the time being the least useful unit in the loadout" Again what's the methodology here??? What even is this stage being featured here, lord of the abyss?? Why exactly are seafarer pizza and dragons above M.Eraser when Ururun already deals most of the damage? Why is Sanzo so high when Ramen already tanks Boraphim anyways? Why is MUSHROOM first?? Why is Ururun less than BW.Legs?? Are you just ranking by DPS??? 4:15 "You cant beat an angel stage without ramen" you can you're just using a bad loadout 4:29 "Do you use it on advent stages" yes, on like almost all of the stages you showed. I used him on Relic B when your Roe and Islands aren't as strong as it can soak hits from Relic Doge to not curse Roe. I used him on March to Death because, well why wouldn't you use it? Future is good here too but SMH's knockback effect can be hellish if you dont use spammable meatshield, plus due to Future's longer cooldown, if Daboo hits your Future from farthest range, you lose a lot of ground and M.Eraser can secure those grounds I used him on NPA for just, general meatshield? Okay tbf this one don't really matter if you do the rush strat you can just bring like 5 units. Admittedly I didn't use him on Kawano as I relied more on Cactus, but frankly he'd be a better choice than Jiangshi here as Kawano has strict money limit and M.Eraser can tank out the sirrels which is one of the main pushers in the stage. 4:31 "Gimmicky stages such as floor 30" Yes??? M.Eraser is one of the best choice of meatshield you can bring here??? It's like tied with Riceball and M.Mohawk in usages???? This is not even a weird pick in the slightest??????? Also is that False Ressurection? I don't see why M.Eraser is a bad pick here, you generally want something to stall the Bunbun? No comments on Luza as I've yet to actually play it but I also don't see why not? You know what I don't use on any of these stages though? Cyberpunk lol. Only F50 maybe but, advent stages and F30? So why did you dock points off of M.Eraser but not Cyberpunk? 4:34 "There's moments where he's recommended but he doesnt go by himself" So does cyberpunk???? Why did you dock points off of M.Eraser but not Cyberpunk???? 4:45 >You can replace M.Eraser with other units and you can win You can say the same to cyberpunk. So again why did you dock points off of M.Eraser but not Cyberpunk??? Ok i've written a whole page of notepad already I don't wanna type anymore I'm tired. For the love of god if you wanna tier something you need to relay a METHODOLOGY FIRST AND FOREMOST. I actually watched maybe like 1 minute of your 'all uber tierlist' video and I knew it's going to be completely pointless the moment you started tiering without even saying HOW the units are tiered. A tierlist without methodology is no difference than randomized unit orders. You're just yapping without thinking bro. This is why tiering discussion are the worst. Nothing good comes out of it. Only people getting heated over absolutely nothing interesting. Good editing on the video tho
“and brings nothing interesting “ idk man these points lowkey interesting 👀👀👀though a lot of the things you said here are over exaggerated (like Manic Eraser Ties with Manic Mohawk and Riceball in floor 30 though realistically did you actually use him? and that Normal eraser bit to name a few😭). if you want we can discus more but as for me im done explaining since this was just a silly explainage on my ranking. Take care & get some sleep dawg
Cyberpunk heavily relies on meatshielding due to his gargantuan blindspot, to use him effectively, especially if the enemy stage is a swedish table of traits (multi traited stages), you're pretty forced to use M. Eraser, as out of all the generalist meatshields, he's the tankiest one (Rock is a bit too niche and specific). You *can* beat stages without M. Eraser but that's kind of putting yourself at a disadvantage. It's kind of like beating Learned to Love without A. Bahamut or Courier cheese, it's possible, but you're actively restricting yourself out of the easiest path, while Cyberpunk is rarely, if ever, a requirement. While I believe Cyberpunk to be incredibly strong, I don't use him that often, because oftentimes the strategy has to warp around to fit him into the loadout, he requires more effort to use effectively, and he excels at it, sure, but he's not exactly the win condition, unless you Cyberstack, but I promise you, it's the least fun strategy out of the entire game. I'm sorry, but waiting for a while just to get your stack going, even though with many strategies you can beat the stage in an equa amount of timel, or faster. Cyberstacking works great, but it's my last resort because it's a borderline snorefest of a strategy. Also CanCan objectively better than Cyberpunk, I'm sorry but it's true.
@@theodorech20 Exactly my point. Cyberpunk CAN work without M. Eraser, but you'd have to play way more carefully in order to not mess up. Even then, Cyberstacking isn't effective everywhere and isn't always a reliable or the dominant strategy, it has a wide range of applications, but M. Eraser does so too, and is solid throughout the entire playthrough. He does fall off later on as enemies get stupidly strong, but he's still a pretty cheap rusher meat shield that doesn't get knockbacked whenever it takes 3 damage (I love dissing M. Mohawk), which is a niche not really fulfilled by many other units (I'm sorry but using Riceball for double the cost is never worth it unless it's 4 stars)
@@thebattle7000 I definitively agree also there are some enemies that can pierce to cyberpunk(not much tho) with wave you can say use octo or another wave blocker but sometimes stage disign dosn't let use octo block because he dies and rest of wave blockers are ubers and they can easily die by enemy support like croakley ,dolphina or loris so also there are some wave stages that are money management stages (only give small amount of money so its hard to use ubers)
Listen nio, I’m trying so hard to respect your opinion here, but I can’t when you are so hypocritical and even downright wrong at times. Every single point you make against manic eraser is either incorrect or can be applied to cyberpunk as well. 1. When there is a trait pushing hard on a mixed stage, that does not mean the specialist meatshield you used against that trait was more useful. Think about it; you would have been much more successful had you only used manic eraser than the only used the specialist, because had you only used the specialist every other trait would have wrecked it, while manic eraser would have been effective against all of them. Therefore the specialist meatshield was not more important here. Pure stages don’t count, they are rare when looking at battle cats as a whole. 2. You can easily beat an angel stage without ramen. Im in zero legends and i forget to bring ramen all the time, but guess what? Dual erasers ends up stalling just fine. 3. I literally used manic eraser against single advent except kappy and his dad lol. He’s even used against the newest boss in the game because he can take two hits before dying. I don’t know why you brought up floor 30 when manic eraser works great there. You’re objectively wrong here. 3. Being able to beat a stage without a unit does not mean that unit was not effective against the stage. It just means it wasn’t required. The exact same thing can be said for cyberpunk. I’ve had a no Gacha save for a few years and I’m in humanity catified. You know what that means, right? It means I don’t even have cyberpunk. Just because his role is irreplaceable doesn’t mean you actually need him. His uniqueness does not increase his importance as much as you seem to believe. 4. Now we get to your cyberpunk argument, which is certainly something. First of all, you seem to believe that if your current cc units aren’t working, you can just use cyberpunk instead. That is just so wrong. There are so many examples where cyberpunk is straight up invalid. Ever heard of a wave enemy? Yes I know about octo, but with harder stages octo has downtime. If even a single wave slips by it can easily one shot cyber because of how low his health is. What about a surge enemy? If a surge reaches far enough, he’s cooked. Death surges cause this to happen all the time. How about we think about zombies for a single second? Holy blast can only do so much, and if a zombie burrows anywhere near him he is useless against it. What about stages where major threats spawn on a timer instead of base hit? Typically you won’t have enough time to save up for cyberpunk, let alone stack. What about stages that are just generally cash tight? There are tons of stages when you can’t spare 3000c for him, let alone 3750c without cost down maxed. How about units that straight up outrange him? You’d be surprised how many enemies do, or have long enough pierce to hit him. What about metal enemies? Cyberpunk sure helps against those. There’s even plenty of enemies straight up immune to slow, too. Last but certainly not least, what about stages where enemies generally tend to push pretty hard? Look at cyberpunk. No health, one knockback, 800 blindspot. If the main threat of a stage is able to push into that blind spot whatsoever, then cyberpunk becomes quite literally useless against it and won’t help at all. You may bring up cyberstacking, but remember that all of the examples I brought up can overlap. Its extremely common that the main threat spawns on a timer so you don’t have enough time, or the stage is low on cash and you can’t afford multiple cyberpunks. When you look at all these examples, you should realize cyberpunk doesn’t actually work as a last resort in the majority of cases. Manic eraser > cyberpunk.
Your point is good but comparing cyber with m. Eraser is like comparing a pencil with an eraser, both have super different uses, same thing happens with m. Eraser and cyber - m. Eraser's job in the game is to be a cheap, spammable, unit to tank damage while cyber is to stall and support other units from faraway with the slow + another thing to keep in mind is that BOTH require support of other units after all its not like you can spam m. Eraser and beat late game levels, same with cyber, both units require each other to work well If i had to choose who to put on number 1 it would be can can and have m. Eraser in 2nd (more usage overall) and in 3rd cyber.
4:38 might be the worst argument to why cyberpunk is better, wow a unit made for tanking and does 100 damage cant solo a stage 😂, maybe cyberpunk and his 800 blindspot could soli some stages with no meatshields. Also specialized meatshields are not very effective due to the fact minimal stages are 1 trait only and if its not 1 trait youre using eraser spam. If the stage is 1 trait WHY ARE YOU USING CYBERPUNK THERES SPECIALISTS 🙏
7:43 somehow NOW it's convineint that it's a multi trained stage but during the meatshielding section it wasent? You also said it yourself you're not bringing cyberpunk to every stage or even 25% most stages don't support him.
Imagine being at an amusement park. Imagine you want to go on two different rides. The first ride is this little teacup ride that you can enjoy for about a minute or two, but once it's over, you can quickly get back in line and be on it again soon because the line is always short and the ride ends quickly enough for new people to get on after the first group starts. The second one is this super long rollercoaster that's the park's main attraction, but the line is always incredibly long and once the ride starts, it takes several minutes for it to go around its course. You're standing in line for upwards of half an hour hyping yourself up, hearing the screams of the people on the ride around you and watching the line slowly, gradually get shorter every few minutes, and then you finally get to go on the ride, but you black out midway through and the ride is over before you realize it and you barely got to experience what you've been waiting for this entire time. The rollercoaster is objectively the better ride according to most people you talk to, but others say that they like the teacups more. They both do different things but the endgoal is the same: to engage and entertain you. Which one do you find to be more fun?
Nah not even that lol cus in this case both rides are meant to entertain you, while cyber and meraser have fundementally different roles, its more like comparing a spoon to a printer
I agree with the top comment, yes people make rankings but this is a comparison between two completely different units, he’s conparing a meatshield to a support back liner debuffer
I sorta disagree with this. While yes cyberpunk is an amazing unit that is really good at cc. I believe that manic eraser is still the better unit. First of all, dependency. Manic eraser, like mentioned in the video, can be thrown into any load out and isn’t dependent on anything to function as a Meat shield. Cyberpunk on the other hand requires a lot of meat shielding for him to work and any strong pusher or long piercing enemy will render cyberpunk useless. Cyberpunk is a very fragile unit that requires careful planning. One counter argument brought up in the video is that specialist usage is better than generalist usage is the case of cyberpunk and manic eraser. I also disagree with this. One example that can be used is can can and swimmer cat. Can can is an amazing generalist who does a lot of damage to a single enemy and is used as a nuker. Swimmer cat is similar to can can where it’s used as a nuker but for floating. You could argue that swimmer is better because he is a better specialist and he is faster. This is not true because can can is better of his generalist usages. Many stages are mixed and have multiple traits. There are some stages where floating is the main threat but a majority of stages are mixed. Another example is dasli and specialist. Dasli is the best Uber in the game because of her insane damage and good survivability (and the immunities). You could also argue the she isn’t the best Uber because there are specialist that do much more damage than her. Like Aphrodite against aliens. Aphrodite has much more range and much dps against aliens. Same with any other specialist. While this isn’t exactly the same as cyberpunk and manic, I still believe it’s important to mention. Another point that isn’t as important but I would still like to mention is how easy and low investment manic tank is but this doesn’t matter in an end game perspective. While there are some flaws in my opinion I still personally believe that manic tank is the better super rare. If you have any questions or would like to argue against my point feel free to reply and I’ll try my best to reply back.
@@lombrqdo1868 Man I've already passed Sol, Aku realm and the few times I've used Cyberpunkzzz are counted with my hands. It was only useful to me with the insane, but I have hardly used it because of how late it is to make that "Stack" that makes it a decent unit. On the other hand at least manic Eraser is a cat that AL least will serve you in practically 99% of the stages that don't have restriction. Is it replaceable? Nah, definitely. You can use other meatshields that specialize in a certain trait, but it's never replaceable lol
This is not just incorrect, it's also stupid. Manic Eraser and Cyberpunk has DIFFERENT roles. Manic Eraser is a cheap 150c meatshield that has 18,995 HP at 30 and 25,545 HP at 50. Meanwhile Cyberpunk... HP doesn't really matter to him he's just a superbackliner with guaranteed 2 seconds (2.4 seconds for treasure traits) slow to non-metals without talents... With talents this 2 - 2.4 second slow doubles to 4 - 4.8 seconds. Crazy how you actually made a take so bad that I had more enjoyment watching Despicable Me 4.
I am more confused on what criteria he’s going for, also, he says stages can be beaten without M. Eraser, and that M. Erased can’t function well with units supporting him. Yeah, so does Cyberpunk, blud is going to get one-shotted if another unit ain’t protecting him.
@@Whispasta64 oh boy I wonder what unit protects cyberpunk... That's right meatshields! Stuff like Ramen, Cone and of course... *Manic Eraser* too. Yeah this video was just why MEraser is good then why Cyber is good and why Cyber is better.
Oh yeah. Keep it mind that manic eraser's very weak attack power is exactly why it's good and actually synergizes well with Cyberpunk. Low attack power is the reason why Cyberstack can be initiated in the first place. since you want to stall the enemy on place not killing them.
yk what, i was about to say i lost all respect for you, but after actually watching the video you have some decent points. however, the reason he is so good is BECAUSE he is a perfect generalist for everything. if a stage has a huge mix of enemies, are you going to bring the specialist meatshield for every trait? no, youre going to bring dual erasers. also, most specialist units (eg. sushi, jetpack, ramen, shigong, cone, bellydancer, etc.) basically need a research combo like biobone or chasing hearts to match to usefulness of dual eraser, so they take up way more slots, and they are more expensive, so they drain your wallet. this is why manic eraser is so good, his versatility. sure, if a stage has all zombie, take shigong only because he works phenomenal there. but if there is more than like 2 or 3 traits in the level, that kind of meatshield picking and choosing simply wont work. and yes, i get that cyberpunk is basically in his own class and has his own abilities that make him able to do stuff no one else can do like cyberstacking, but there are still ubers and other rares that can at least get the job done without him. i respect your arguments, but i just cant agree with them.
Bro its a meat shields vs a crowd controller they are completely different unit its a cat with long distance and a close ranger the only similar feature is they are a super rare
@@Biscuitiscute he made this video because people said Manic Eraser is better when in reality it's just a meatshield you will bring because it's just good to have, it wasn't him comparing the two it was the loud majority saying how a freaking meatshield is somehow better than a crowd controller, you always bring a meatshield but it doesn't mean you will automatically lose if you don't bring that one meatshield that everyone else has so it makes sense why Cyberpunk could be considered better because you just can't replace him
“He’s the emergency crowd controller, and none can take that role” Sniper the deadeye who doesn’t require talents,knockbacks and slows enemies,has no blindspot has the EXACT same CD, attacks slightly faster and costs less then 1/3rd of a cyberpunk: [edit]:while yes, cyberpunk has area. But for advents or UL stages that don’t have enemy spam, he could easily replace cyberpunk(also cyberpunk does the absolute worst when it comes to emergencies)
Cyberpunk still needs meatsgields tho, and the low damage of Meraser is the reason Cyberdtack is possible, since speciailized Meatshields like ramen push too hard.
@@TeaCupToast I mean he has a point tho, what’s the point of doing something in a game if you don’t find it fun? Unless it’s necessary like xp or catfruit grinding
This video is somebody who cant actually build a lineup trying to explain how a super backliner that is either a chip ccer with glaring weaknesses/last resort on aids stages is better than the best meatshield (meatshields are the most important class of unit). Lmfao.
I disagree with this take infact as a player whos completed all of 4*ul and current zl I think can can is better than both But bc players are assholes so to no surprise they start hating no one deserves this much hate bro how are y'all this heated about his opinion you know a biased statement Unlike the rest of yall atleast nio isnt saying that yall are stupid and that your opinions dont matter infact he literally encouraged discussion and unique opinions The best unit in any game is so unbelievably objective and so dependent on what you value most and the fact that some of yall pea brains cant wrap your head around this is so damn crazy And you know what at thw wnd of the day this is a mobile game about cats, eldritch abominations, anine girls and so much more so why cant yall stop bitching about whats meta and whats not or the fact that people use ubers units implemented in the for player usage or getting all technical going for the highest possible perfection trying to optimize everything to the max and just have fun (keep in mind im not talking about all of the bc community but some members are just sad at this point)
And hell I'm not even good at this game I just play it when I have free time for fun but the way people in this community just crave and look for shit to complain about is so annoying just stop whining for a second and appreciate the way this shitty cat game works Also sorry for any problems in writing for this comment i don't even have an excuse I just suck
The gall to hint that people who automatically class M.eraser as the best unit are idiots while making the points that you list in this video is insane
5:50 Yes, Seafarer and Cyberpunk did their job, but so did your meatshield(s). M.Eraser as a meatshield is meant to buy time while absorbing damage along with any other unit considered to be a meashield, that's their purpose. Hes a nieche generalist that does his job well, and as a meatshield allows other units such as seafarer or cyberpunk TO do their job. Of course there are replacements or other ways to get the job done, but that doesnt invalidate the value that unit brings to the table when present. Both units could work well with another but without the other (just the two of them in this case) they wouldnt accomplish much if anything at all. This comparison doesnt make sense 😭
They're talking about the attack up combo, although that only makes a bit more sense since Neneko is competing more with Cutter and Diabolosa for a 2nd atk up slot than LKD
Idk why bro decided to call cyberpunk better than M.eraser but yeah tbh some stages require cyberpuck because he is a superbackliner but you can always pair both M.eraser and cyberpunk in stages.
I mean but this neglects other options like can can. Do I think Manic Eraser is the best? No, but manic erasers place in a lineup is very difficult to replace. Cyberpunk is very good, but the main role that Cyberpunk sees is stacking. Why use strategy when you could cyberstack for 5 minutes and clobber this otherwise uneventful stage? It’s also so easy for cyberpunk to be completely unusable in a stage because the main threats come on a timer. It’s almost like claiming Icat is better than courier on all red stages because the permafreeze can make the stage free. When looking at the best super rare you want a unit that can bring value everytime it hits the field; when you spawn it there is a chance it could change the tide of the battle. Can manic eraser do that? Yes but rarely but that is true of cyberpunk too. Moral of the story it’s can can and it’s not even close.
"You didn’t beat a whole new world because of manic erasers meatshielding" he don’t realize without the meatshielding the units that "carried" were carried by meatshielding
Cyberpunk CANT survive on its own either, neither can Manic Eraser, but does NOT mean that unit is bad. (ofc) Cyberpunk is also replaceable. You might say that Cyberpunk has an "irreplacible" role, but other units could do Cyberpunk's role too, if not, better. For example, ICat does a much better job for fighting the Bore, but again, still needs support. Same with Cyberpunk. If he is your main source of damage, why. For Manic Eraser, his role can be replaced, but he is the best at doing what he does (general meatshield.) Of course, he is replaceable when it comes to a trait, like Ramen Cat against Angel enemies. He would be your go to meatshield. So I wouldn't say that Cyberpunk is better than Manic Eraser because: 1. They can be both replaced (in certain situations) And 2. They both can't survive on their own. Well this looks like a tie for both of them, but their is one thing that Manic Eraser has, that Cyberpunk doesn't. Has more usage. I'm not a Battle Cats pro ranker or anything, but this is MY take on this. Tell me if I got something wrong. I'm not a pro.
if you do the cyber stack at the start and legit waste like 20 minutes just use seed tracker and get mitama or other fast and mitama completely outscales him in every single stage almost since shes so tanky even if you get into her blind spot she will get knocked back and keep slowing while cyberpunk will probably just die or something and what you said about m eraser is completely dumb since 80% of the game is mixed stages you cant bring 3 specialist meatshield for every category cause its too expensive, you probably the kind of guy to say "hm actually im no uber player im such a pro! i just spam cyberpunk stack at almost every single stage!" this strat is worse then using dasli, double phono, and balrog at the same team atleast these players have fun using their overpowered ubers to beat hard stages you just reusing the same boring trick and play just to say "yeah i completed the game no ubers"
You used no methodology to explain your points so I can’t really agree or disagree with any of it because there is nothing meaningful you used to actually compare the 2 units. Maybe this says a lot about how there is really no need for comparison between 2 completely different units when they are both really good at what they are used for and easily obtainable.
If you're really saying Seafarer and Catellite are much better than M. Eraser, you may be right, but those units literally rely on M. Eraser to work well. These units have very good usage but not much health. For example, A. Bahamut. He has absolutely broken stats, but his low health balances him, requiring meatshields, and M. Eraser can get in there quickly because of its high speed. Also, CYBERPUNK. Because of his incredibly high range and large blindspot, meatshields need to go in front of him so that he can operate properly. And the meatshield that is best for mixed stages (nearly all stages) is M. ERASER! Dasli, Seafarer, Benkei, and just about any other mid-ranger, backliner/super backliner, and nuker you can think of needs M. Eraser to compensate their low health. Including Cyberpunk! Also, you say M. Eraser is easily replaced, but doesn't that also apply to Cyberpunk? Why are you taking off points on M. Eraser but not on Cyberpunk???? That goes for many other things in this video! To put it short, manic eraser is better than cyberpunk (and so is can can).
Personally I think that CP is worse than manic eraser due to manic eraser being basically necessary in mid and late game while cyberpunk acts kind of a uber good in stages but never necessary
My thoughts: i think manic eraser is a very fast and tanky meatshield that you can use anywhere, tho he's usually pair with other meatshields, and specialist meatshields not by himself, he's not some sort of, "deploy him instant win" Rather he's just that one side character that can help you along the way and is the reason why manic eraser is not the best super rare nor the best cat, he's just the best generalist meatshield that can give you a ton of help in almost all the stages, further more, his cost to tankyness ratio is nuts, so manic eraser is always good but not the best cat, that's just my thoughts
Idk manic cats is kinda different from the rest of the super rare and also comparing a meatshield/tank unit to a cc is kinda weird. Also I still think manic eraser is better than cyperpunk.
I’d say a near universally usable, spammable as hell unit who holds off enemies for even just a second each and is the best at his role is better than a unit who can break stages, but can be very hard to throw in at times, often requires lengthy ass setup and/or a lineup to work around his weaknesses, can just be straight up unusable on some stages(ones too fast, too dry on cash, or have enemies who can snipe him somehow), and often isn’t even strictly necessary(he *is* a big help when he works, but you usually don’t *need* him outside 3-Crown UL).
I still think Manic Eraser is better than Cyberpunk, usage for all phases throughout your playthorugh, even in all advent stages. Sure Cyberpunk staking is like stacking ubers, but Manic Eraser lv 50 is basically almost a Eraser lv 20+90. Manic Eraser is too universal, even in gimmick stages.
I deadass haven’t used cyberpunk in almost every stage in the game (other than a few sol stages), manic eraser not being necessary applies to cyberpunk as well.
Nio, i love you no homo or diddy but like, what… the videos good but ME and cyber punk are COMPLETELY different units, ones a meatshield and ones a support. Cyber punk can be used in most line ups, but can be a waste of a slot on cash tight stages unlike ME and other meat shields. Youre basically cooked if you dont got meat shields, you arent cooked if you dont have cyber punk unless its required and you need to cyber stack or sum, my points are probably ass cuz im kind of an unc now so hate all you want❤❤
Here's my take on why MEraser is better than Cyberpunk: Manic eraser is a general meatshield, while cyberpunk is a general crowd controller. A meatshield is a more valuable usage than a crowd controller, because units under this classification prevent your bigger attackers from taking too much damage and dying. You made a point saying that you aren't going to use manic eraser for every stage, but the same can be said for cyberpunk. And, in my opinion, you're going to use cyberpunk LESS than manic eraser, because he is just overall really impractical to use unless you're willing to dedicate tons of time to set him up to the point where he's going to be broken. We aren't even talking about their performance yet either, as cyberpunk has a massive blindspot and would only be useful if supported by meatshields, preferably fast meatshields that are able to prevent enemies from getting into cyberpunk's range, say, a unit like manic eraser. Overall, I believe that manic eraser is objectively the better unit here. However, both units have their uses and can be extremely broken at times, but a generalist meatshield outshines a generalist crowd controller, because a meatshield is a more valuable role than a crowd controller.
Okay, first up I think M-Eraser is a bit high called as the best unit, as he isn't all that broken, just ol' reliable and the best generalist meatshield. He is usable everywhere but not the best in the field, he never really broke anything. However he is used basically everywhere and just because you can beat a stage without him doesn't mean he is useless. I can beat any stage without Dasli, yet she is still one of the most broken ones. And while Cyber broke literally every stage by stacking, that is the worst way to go about this as it literally takes away every bit of fun since he isn't all that fun, you are just abusing a general game mechanic. Cyber is also not that needed. I played him maybe a few times but because he is fucking boring I don't use him. Also what use is an emergency crowd control when the enemy is meatshielded enough, or killed outright. While sometimes it is crucial to cc an enemy, it never is all that required. As the title says, he is for emergencies while Eraser is used for everything. So Cyber < Eraser < Slime
to be honest theyre just different units with different roles. theyre both very popular, strong and usable in a lot of scenarios. its kinda hard to compare em
Used in him in the past, and it was for camelle, zamelle and the likes for the most part. And i do appreciate his role as backline cc but for most stages he isnt needed or i get pushed too easily bc my meatshielding didnt work (not so easy now with rock cat but i only got that 2 months ago so the majority of the time he sucked and died to most things). Now he rarely really sees use bc aku shields but if i ever need him(i suspect he will be used often in relic UL stages as my alternatives for cc are dogshit)
Just wait, in 10 years when Manic Eraser gets talents it will easily beat Cyberpunk. Cyberpunk is only better now because it's got talents over Manic Eraser.
Cyberpunk is literally not better, like, not even close, nio take's are horrible and you shouldn't listen to him for opinions about units. Go watch siluman, xskull (the newer videos, the older ones are a mess) and lucasIV, who also murdered nio in a comment here.
@@justkiwi8274 I actually liked the video and thought it was entertaining. I watch all those youtubers you've mentioned but they all kinda offer the same view. They talk about stat of the units, show off stages they're good in, and that's that. I don't know how to phrase this, but they use such generic units (level 30, non Uber, minimal talents) that their presented view of battle cats feels unrealistic. I know its to make guides as easy to match as possible but I often don't follow them as its just not how I play. I don't always agree with them but I still watch them. Nio on the other has a way more casual perspective that is closer to what I feel when playing the game. I feel way more in my ballpark when listening to Nio. I'm not going to stop watching him. Also of course Lucas IV is gonna have a huge list of Examples of how manic eraser is essential to certain stages, he's spent actual years focused on a playstyle that uses Manic Eraser. Also I think you missed the point of the video. tldw manic eraser has alot of competition for its role as a meatshield while compared to cyberpunk who's unique in its role as a stackable long range area crowd control generalist outside of collabs/Ubers.

Outclasses by me
I'm gonna start off by saying that I generally DESPISE 'tier' discussions, I think they're almost always a waste of time and brings nothing interesting to the table and never leads to any healthy or interesting discussion. And I still stand by that.
But I still want to comment as a lot of the argument here makes absolutely no sense; in particular about how you bring up a lot of points against Manic Eraser, despite it can also be said the same about Cyberpunk, and vice versa.
The worst offense is the lack of methodology on what's "better".
3:15 In Multiversal Studios for example, why is that you consider Normal Eraser to be the 'worst' one? I would consider normal eraser to be better than M.Eraser here if they both are at an appropriate level due to normal eraser's slow speed allowing you to not push as much, as you are discouraged to push too hard since that will trigger the Doge Base. Not to mention due the slow speed allows the thicker meatshielding density which also allows you to stall in 2 fronts better. When the main zombie peons unburrows, the stack of slow normal erasers will stall Musashi for a longer amount of time compared to M.Eraser which would immediately stack up and die. So what is the methodology on who's "better"?
3:40 In Jagando, Bellydancer from my experience is ABSURDLY expensive to use. It's very much possible to make the argument that M.Eraser is even a better choice than Cactus, as a 2s meatshield when timed properly can permastall Fallen Bear no matter if they oneshot them or not. Cone maybe destroys the stage idk I never tried him here because it feels silly to get Cone before beating Jagando when Jagando's expected progression is generally easier than getting Cone when M.Eraser is much more obtainable. You even mention this about Jetpack at 3:55 but still shows Cone anyways. So, what's the methodolody on who's "better"?
3:48 "The truth is you can beat nearly any stages with or without him" OK? You can say this to any units in the game, including Cyberpunk, so why does that dock M.Eraser's points but not Cyberpunk's?
4:04 "For many traits or genre of enemies M.Eraser just becomes filler" Most stages in the game are not mono-target enemies. Nearly every stages in the game are mixed traits. That's why Nekokhamen, Future or worse Bellydancer are not used as much - because they instantly melt when literally any other enemies hit it.
Also putting Roe as a ''main meatshield'' for red stage is also crazy as most Red enemies hits incredibly hard and Roe is used almost exclusively for Prof.A.
4:08 "Most of the time being the least useful unit in the loadout" Again what's the methodology here??? What even is this stage being featured here, lord of the abyss?? Why exactly are seafarer pizza and dragons above M.Eraser when Ururun already deals most of the damage? Why is Sanzo so high when Ramen already tanks Boraphim anyways? Why is MUSHROOM first?? Why is Ururun less than BW.Legs?? Are you just ranking by DPS???
4:15 "You cant beat an angel stage without ramen" you can you're just using a bad loadout
4:29 "Do you use it on advent stages" yes, on like almost all of the stages you showed.
I used him on Relic B when your Roe and Islands aren't as strong as it can soak hits from Relic Doge to not curse Roe.
I used him on March to Death because, well why wouldn't you use it? Future is good here too but SMH's knockback effect can be hellish if you dont use spammable meatshield, plus due to Future's longer cooldown, if Daboo hits your Future from farthest range, you lose a lot of ground and M.Eraser can secure those grounds
I used him on NPA for just, general meatshield? Okay tbf this one don't really matter if you do the rush strat you can just bring like 5 units.
Admittedly I didn't use him on Kawano as I relied more on Cactus, but frankly he'd be a better choice than Jiangshi here as Kawano has strict money limit and M.Eraser can tank out the sirrels which is one of the main pushers in the stage.
4:31 "Gimmicky stages such as floor 30" Yes??? M.Eraser is one of the best choice of meatshield you can bring here??? It's like tied with Riceball and M.Mohawk in usages???? This is not even a weird pick in the slightest???????
Also is that False Ressurection? I don't see why M.Eraser is a bad pick here, you generally want something to stall the Bunbun?
No comments on Luza as I've yet to actually play it but I also don't see why not?
You know what I don't use on any of these stages though? Cyberpunk lol. Only F50 maybe but, advent stages and F30?
So why did you dock points off of M.Eraser but not Cyberpunk?
4:34 "There's moments where he's recommended but he doesnt go by himself" So does cyberpunk????
Why did you dock points off of M.Eraser but not Cyberpunk????
4:45 >You can replace M.Eraser with other units and you can win
You can say the same to cyberpunk.
So again why did you dock points off of M.Eraser but not Cyberpunk???
Ok i've written a whole page of notepad already I don't wanna type anymore I'm tired.
For the love of god if you wanna tier something you need to relay a METHODOLOGY FIRST AND FOREMOST.
I actually watched maybe like 1 minute of your 'all uber tierlist' video and I knew it's going to be completely pointless the moment you started tiering without even saying HOW the units are tiered. A tierlist without methodology is no difference than randomized unit orders. You're just yapping without thinking bro.
This is why tiering discussion are the worst. Nothing good comes out of it. Only people getting heated over absolutely nothing interesting.
Good editing on the video tho
Jesus you literally have nothing to do man go get some sleep lucas 😭
Absolutely murdered Nio with this one gdamn
tldr, i like when u yap tho
“and brings nothing interesting “ idk man these points lowkey interesting 👀👀👀though a lot of the things you said here are over exaggerated (like Manic Eraser Ties with Manic Mohawk and Riceball in floor 30 though realistically did you actually use him? and that Normal eraser bit to name a few😭). if you want we can discus more but as for me im done explaining since this was just a silly explainage on my ranking. Take care & get some sleep dawg
Nio was later found dead in a random alleyway.
Cyberpunk heavily relies on meatshielding due to his gargantuan blindspot, to use him effectively, especially if the enemy stage is a swedish table of traits (multi traited stages), you're pretty forced to use M. Eraser, as out of all the generalist meatshields, he's the tankiest one (Rock is a bit too niche and specific). You *can* beat stages without M. Eraser but that's kind of putting yourself at a disadvantage. It's kind of like beating Learned to Love without A. Bahamut or Courier cheese, it's possible, but you're actively restricting yourself out of the easiest path, while Cyberpunk is rarely, if ever, a requirement. While I believe Cyberpunk to be incredibly strong, I don't use him that often, because oftentimes the strategy has to warp around to fit him into the loadout, he requires more effort to use effectively, and he excels at it, sure, but he's not exactly the win condition, unless you Cyberstack, but I promise you, it's the least fun strategy out of the entire game. I'm sorry, but waiting for a while just to get your stack going, even though with many strategies you can beat the stage in an equa amount of timel, or faster. Cyberstacking works great, but it's my last resort because it's a borderline snorefest of a strategy.
Also CanCan objectively better than Cyberpunk, I'm sorry but it's true.
Cyberstack by itself relies Manic Eraser to work, and one of the most effective units doing so.
cancan is 2nd best, nobody can change my mind (in my opinion)
@@theodorech20 Exactly my point. Cyberpunk CAN work without M. Eraser, but you'd have to play way more carefully in order to not mess up. Even then, Cyberstacking isn't effective everywhere and isn't always a reliable or the dominant strategy, it has a wide range of applications, but M. Eraser does so too, and is solid throughout the entire playthrough. He does fall off later on as enemies get stupidly strong, but he's still a pretty cheap rusher meat shield that doesn't get knockbacked whenever it takes 3 damage (I love dissing M. Mohawk), which is a niche not really fulfilled by many other units (I'm sorry but using Riceball for double the cost is never worth it unless it's 4 stars)
@@thebattle7000 I definitively agree also there are some enemies that can pierce to cyberpunk(not much tho) with wave you can say use octo or another wave blocker but sometimes stage disign dosn't let use octo block because he dies and rest of wave blockers are ubers and they can easily die by enemy support like croakley ,dolphina or loris so also there are some wave stages that are money management stages (only give small amount of money so its hard to use ubers)

Listen nio, I’m trying so hard to respect your opinion here, but I can’t when you are so hypocritical and even downright wrong at times. Every single point you make against manic eraser is either incorrect or can be applied to cyberpunk as well.
1. When there is a trait pushing hard on a mixed stage, that does not mean the specialist meatshield you used against that trait was more useful. Think about it; you would have been much more successful had you only used manic eraser than the only used the specialist, because had you only used the specialist every other trait would have wrecked it, while manic eraser would have been effective against all of them. Therefore the specialist meatshield was not more important here. Pure stages don’t count, they are rare when looking at battle cats as a whole.
2. You can easily beat an angel stage without ramen. Im in zero legends and i forget to bring ramen all the time, but guess what? Dual erasers ends up stalling just fine.
3. I literally used manic eraser against single advent except kappy and his dad lol. He’s even used against the newest boss in the game because he can take two hits before dying. I don’t know why you brought up floor 30 when manic eraser works great there. You’re objectively wrong here.
3. Being able to beat a stage without a unit does not mean that unit was not effective against the stage. It just means it wasn’t required. The exact same thing can be said for cyberpunk. I’ve had a no Gacha save for a few years and I’m in humanity catified. You know what that means, right? It means I don’t even have cyberpunk. Just because his role is irreplaceable doesn’t mean you actually need him. His uniqueness does not increase his importance as much as you seem to believe.
4. Now we get to your cyberpunk argument, which is certainly something. First of all, you seem to believe that if your current cc units aren’t working, you can just use cyberpunk instead. That is just so wrong. There are so many examples where cyberpunk is straight up invalid. Ever heard of a wave enemy? Yes I know about octo, but with harder stages octo has downtime. If even a single wave slips by it can easily one shot cyber because of how low his health is. What about a surge enemy? If a surge reaches far enough, he’s cooked. Death surges cause this to happen all the time. How about we think about zombies for a single second? Holy blast can only do so much, and if a zombie burrows anywhere near him he is useless against it. What about stages where major threats spawn on a timer instead of base hit? Typically you won’t have enough time to save up for cyberpunk, let alone stack. What about stages that are just generally cash tight? There are tons of stages when you can’t spare 3000c for him, let alone 3750c without cost down maxed. How about units that straight up outrange him? You’d be surprised how many enemies do, or have long enough pierce to hit him. What about metal enemies? Cyberpunk sure helps against those. There’s even plenty of enemies straight up immune to slow, too. Last but certainly not least, what about stages where enemies generally tend to push pretty hard? Look at cyberpunk. No health, one knockback, 800 blindspot. If the main threat of a stage is able to push into that blind spot whatsoever, then cyberpunk becomes quite literally useless against it and won’t help at all. You may bring up cyberstacking, but remember that all of the examples I brought up can overlap. Its extremely common that the main threat spawns on a timer so you don’t have enough time, or the stage is low on cash and you can’t afford multiple cyberpunks. When you look at all these examples, you should realize cyberpunk doesn’t actually work as a last resort in the majority of cases.
Manic eraser > cyberpunk.
Exactly!!! And I'm no funny cat game expert but... I think people use manic eraser more than cyberpunk
As a funny cat game player, I can confirm I use manic eraser on every stage and rarely use cyberpunk
Your point is good but comparing cyber with m. Eraser is like comparing a pencil with an eraser, both have super different uses, same thing happens with m. Eraser and cyber - m. Eraser's job in the game is to be a cheap, spammable, unit to tank damage while cyber is to stall and support other units from faraway with the slow + another thing to keep in mind is that BOTH require support of other units after all its not like you can spam m. Eraser and beat late game levels, same with cyber, both units require each other to work well
If i had to choose who to put on number 1 it would be can can and have m. Eraser in 2nd (more usage overall) and in 3rd cyber.
4:38 might be the worst argument to why cyberpunk is better, wow a unit made for tanking and does 100 damage cant solo a stage 😂, maybe cyberpunk and his 800 blindspot could soli some stages with no meatshields. Also specialized meatshields are not very effective due to the fact minimal stages are 1 trait only and if its not 1 trait youre using eraser spam. If the stage is 1 trait WHY ARE YOU USING CYBERPUNK THERES SPECIALISTS 🙏
7:43 somehow NOW it's convineint that it's a multi trained stage but during the meatshielding section it wasent? You also said it yourself you're not bringing cyberpunk to every stage or even 25% most stages don't support him.
0:33 why did i think that he will say a sponser
He was sponsered by cyberpunk to make this video
I'll be honest i've never used cyberpunk in the second half of UL
Imagine being at an amusement park. Imagine you want to go on two different rides. The first ride is this little teacup ride that you can enjoy for about a minute or two, but once it's over, you can quickly get back in line and be on it again soon because the line is always short and the ride ends quickly enough for new people to get on after the first group starts. The second one is this super long rollercoaster that's the park's main attraction, but the line is always incredibly long and once the ride starts, it takes several minutes for it to go around its course. You're standing in line for upwards of half an hour hyping yourself up, hearing the screams of the people on the ride around you and watching the line slowly, gradually get shorter every few minutes, and then you finally get to go on the ride, but you black out midway through and the ride is over before you realize it and you barely got to experience what you've been waiting for this entire time. The rollercoaster is objectively the better ride according to most people you talk to, but others say that they like the teacups more. They both do different things but the endgoal is the same: to engage and entertain you. Which one do you find to be more fun?
Nah not even that lol cus in this case both rides are meant to entertain you, while cyber and meraser have fundementally different roles, its more like comparing a spoon to a printer
this is like saying why sleeping is better than drawing
they have basically no similarity whatsoever 💀
I agree with the top comment, yes people make rankings but this is a comparison between two completely different units, he’s conparing a meatshield to a support back liner debuffer
This legit makes no sense they’re 2 completely different units
Edit:Nvm
Zzz
Yeah but how else do you make rankings?
You can still compare different units by how well they do their job
that’s like saying tier lists should be made because all the units are unique😭
Bro invalidated every single ranking and tierlist in existence LoL
I sorta disagree with this. While yes cyberpunk is an amazing unit that is really good at cc. I believe that manic eraser is still the better unit. First of all, dependency. Manic eraser, like mentioned in the video, can be thrown into any load out and isn’t dependent on anything to function as a Meat shield. Cyberpunk on the other hand requires a lot of meat shielding for him to work and any strong pusher or long piercing enemy will render cyberpunk useless. Cyberpunk is a very fragile unit that requires careful planning. One counter argument brought up in the video is that specialist usage is better than generalist usage is the case of cyberpunk and manic eraser. I also disagree with this. One example that can be used is can can and swimmer cat. Can can is an amazing generalist who does a lot of damage to a single enemy and is used as a nuker. Swimmer cat is similar to can can where it’s used as a nuker but for floating. You could argue that swimmer is better because he is a better specialist and he is faster. This is not true because can can is better of his generalist usages. Many stages are mixed and have multiple traits. There are some stages where floating is the main threat but a majority of stages are mixed. Another example is dasli and specialist. Dasli is the best Uber in the game because of her insane damage and good survivability (and the immunities). You could also argue the she isn’t the best Uber because there are specialist that do much more damage than her. Like Aphrodite against aliens. Aphrodite has much more range and much dps against aliens. Same with any other specialist. While this isn’t exactly the same as cyberpunk and manic, I still believe it’s important to mention. Another point that isn’t as important but I would still like to mention is how easy and low investment manic tank is but this doesn’t matter in an end game perspective. While there are some flaws in my opinion I still personally believe that manic tank is the better super rare. If you have any questions or would like to argue against my point feel free to reply and I’ll try my best to reply back.
Manic eraser > Cyberstack
Also they have SO differents roles, wym man

On the other hand at least manic Eraser is a cat that AL least will serve you in practically 99% of the stages that don't have restriction.
Is it replaceable? Nah, definitely.
You can use other meatshields that specialize in a certain trait, but it's never replaceable lol
Are the two units comparable or not? You're clearly contradicting yourself.
This is not just incorrect, it's also stupid.
Manic Eraser and Cyberpunk has DIFFERENT roles.
Manic Eraser is a cheap 150c meatshield that has 18,995 HP at 30 and 25,545 HP at 50.
Meanwhile Cyberpunk... HP doesn't really matter to him he's just a superbackliner with guaranteed 2 seconds (2.4 seconds for treasure traits) slow to non-metals without talents... With talents this 2 - 2.4 second slow doubles to 4 - 4.8 seconds.
Crazy how you actually made a take so bad that I had more enjoyment watching Despicable Me 4.
💀💀💀
I am more confused on what criteria he’s going for, also, he says stages can be beaten without M. Eraser, and that M. Erased can’t function well with units supporting him.
Yeah, so does Cyberpunk, blud is going to get one-shotted if another unit ain’t protecting him.

People stupidly comparing unit doesn't justify you standing on opposite side
yk what, i was about to say i lost all respect for you, but after actually watching the video you have some decent points. however, the reason he is so good is BECAUSE he is a perfect generalist for everything. if a stage has a huge mix of enemies, are you going to bring the specialist meatshield for every trait? no, youre going to bring dual erasers. also, most specialist units (eg. sushi, jetpack, ramen, shigong, cone, bellydancer, etc.) basically need a research combo like biobone or chasing hearts to match to usefulness of dual eraser, so they take up way more slots, and they are more expensive, so they drain your wallet. this is why manic eraser is so good, his versatility. sure, if a stage has all zombie, take shigong only because he works phenomenal there. but if there is more than like 2 or 3 traits in the level, that kind of meatshield picking and choosing simply wont work. and yes, i get that cyberpunk is basically in his own class and has his own abilities that make him able to do stuff no one else can do like cyberstacking, but there are still ubers and other rares that can at least get the job done without him. i respect your arguments, but i just cant agree with them.
They literally aren't comparable what?
Bro its a meat shields vs a crowd controller they are completely different unit its a cat with long distance and a close ranger the only similar feature is they are a super rare
@@Biscuitiscute he made this video because people said Manic Eraser is better when in reality it's just a meatshield you will bring because it's just good to have, it wasn't him comparing the two it was the loud majority saying how a freaking meatshield is somehow better than a crowd controller, you always bring a meatshield but it doesn't mean you will automatically lose if you don't bring that one meatshield that everyone else has so it makes sense why Cyberpunk could be considered better because you just can't replace him

5:50 Yes, Seafarer and Cyberpunk did their job, but so did your meatshield(s). M.Eraser as a meatshield is meant to buy time while absorbing damage along with any other unit considered to be a meashield, that's their purpose. Hes a nieche generalist that does his job well, and as a meatshield allows other units such as seafarer or cyberpunk TO do their job. Of course there are replacements or other ways to get the job done, but that doesnt invalidate the value that unit brings to the table when present. Both units could work well with another but without the other (just the two of them in this case) they wouldnt accomplish much if anything at all. This comparison doesnt make sense 😭

Hi can you please make more animations I LOVE them especially the video “How courier cat was made” thanks
I mean but this neglects other options like can can. Do I think Manic Eraser is the best? No, but manic erasers place in a lineup is very difficult to replace. Cyberpunk is very good, but the main role that Cyberpunk sees is stacking. Why use strategy when you could cyberstack for 5 minutes and clobber this otherwise uneventful stage? It’s also so easy for cyberpunk to be completely unusable in a stage because the main threats come on a timer. It’s almost like claiming Icat is better than courier on all red stages because the permafreeze can make the stage free. When looking at the best super rare you want a unit that can bring value everytime it hits the field; when you spawn it there is a chance it could change the tide of the battle. Can manic eraser do that? Yes but rarely but that is true of cyberpunk too. Moral of the story it’s can can and it’s not even close.
A new video yippie!
A way to solve this debate: just make a team with both lol
Fr just shut up and enjoy both of them
Nio, I'm just gonna come up and say it
All of your takes are horrible
I'm sorry
Also comparing Manic Eraser to Cyberpunk is like comparing a brick to a toaster, they have completely different fucking purposes
@@teh_manexactly!!! And also manic eraser doesn't need cyberpunk, but cyberpunk needs manic eraser
"You didn’t beat a whole new world because of manic erasers meatshielding" he don’t realize without the meatshielding the units that "carried" were carried by meatshielding
Cyberpunk CANT survive on its own either, neither can Manic Eraser, but does NOT mean that unit is bad. (ofc) Cyberpunk is also replaceable. You might say that Cyberpunk has an "irreplacible" role, but other units could do Cyberpunk's role too, if not, better. For example, ICat does a much better job for fighting the Bore, but again, still needs support. Same with Cyberpunk. If he is your main source of damage, why. For Manic Eraser, his role can be replaced, but he is the best at doing what he does (general meatshield.) Of course, he is replaceable when it comes to a trait, like Ramen Cat against Angel enemies. He would be your go to meatshield. So I wouldn't say that Cyberpunk is better than Manic Eraser because: 1. They can be both replaced (in certain situations) And 2. They both can't survive on their own. Well this looks like a tie for both of them, but their is one thing that Manic Eraser has, that Cyberpunk doesn't. Has more usage. I'm not a Battle Cats pro ranker or anything, but this is MY take on this. Tell me if I got something wrong. I'm not a pro.
Also Cyberstacking sucks ngl
the bc community getting more heated over this then the minecraft community got heated over 'I... AM STEVE' and that says something lol
5:25 can’t you do the same for cyberpunk 🤨🤨🤨
Missing the point🤦♀️
@@tomaszczelusniak979 what is the point
Why are all cats with slow so loved?Freeze is a much better effect
The game itself knows freeze is a direct upgrade from slow so freeze units are usually restrained far more than slow units.
@@ChickenNugget7 a freeze mitama would be insane lmao
if you do the cyber stack at the start and legit waste like 20 minutes just use seed tracker and get mitama or other fast and mitama completely outscales him in every single stage almost since shes so tanky even if you get into her blind spot she will get knocked back and keep slowing while cyberpunk will probably just die or something and what you said about m eraser is completely dumb since 80% of the game is mixed stages you cant bring 3 specialist meatshield for every category cause its too expensive, you probably the kind of guy to say "hm actually im no uber player im such a pro! i just spam cyberpunk stack at almost every single stage!" this strat is worse then using dasli, double phono, and balrog at the same team atleast these players have fun using their overpowered ubers to beat hard stages you just reusing the same boring trick and play just to say "yeah i completed the game no ubers"
You used no methodology to explain your points so I can’t really agree or disagree with any of it because there is nothing meaningful you used to actually compare the 2 units. Maybe this says a lot about how there is really no need for comparison between 2 completely different units when they are both really good at what they are used for and easily obtainable.
If you're really saying Seafarer and Catellite are much better than M. Eraser, you may be right, but those units literally rely on M. Eraser to work well. These units have very good usage but not much health. For example, A. Bahamut. He has absolutely broken stats, but his low health balances him, requiring meatshields, and M. Eraser can get in there quickly because of its high speed. Also, CYBERPUNK. Because of his incredibly high range and large blindspot, meatshields need to go in front of him so that he can operate properly. And the meatshield that is best for mixed stages (nearly all stages) is M. ERASER! Dasli, Seafarer, Benkei, and just about any other mid-ranger, backliner/super backliner, and nuker you can think of needs M. Eraser to compensate their low health. Including Cyberpunk! Also, you say M. Eraser is easily replaced, but doesn't that also apply to Cyberpunk? Why are you taking off points on M. Eraser but not on Cyberpunk???? That goes for many other things in this video! To put it short,
manic eraser is better than cyberpunk (and so is can can).
Personally I think that CP is worse than manic eraser due to manic eraser being basically necessary in mid and late game while cyberpunk acts kind of a uber good in stages but never necessary
Comparing a fuckin' meatshield to a Longrange Crowd controller is crazy💀

no cyberpunk: death
no manic eraser: also death
nio goes insane for the 449593th time
3:15 Nah I won’t get out
My thoughts: i think manic eraser is a very fast and tanky meatshield that you can use anywhere, tho he's usually pair with other meatshields, and specialist meatshields not by himself, he's not some sort of, "deploy him instant win" Rather he's just that one side character that can help you along the way and is the reason why manic eraser is not the best super rare nor the best cat, he's just the best generalist meatshield that can give you a ton of help in almost all the stages, further more, his cost to tankyness ratio is nuts, so manic eraser is always good but not the best cat, that's just my thoughts
At 4:06, the wave icon uses the old asset instead of the new one. Literally unwatchable.
You know it’s a good day when nio uploads
you cant really compare the 2 roles like apples to a car wheel
most random comparison
Cyberpunk is the best but counterpoint: cyberpunk is boring af. Thats why i never use cyberpunk
Idk manic cats is kinda different from the rest of the super rare and also comparing a meatshield/tank unit to a cc is kinda weird. Also I still think manic eraser is better than cyperpunk.
I can't keep protecting bro🙏
I’d say a near universally usable, spammable as hell unit who holds off enemies for even just a second each and is the best at his role is better than a unit who can break stages, but can be very hard to throw in at times, often requires lengthy ass setup and/or a lineup to work around his weaknesses, can just be straight up unusable on some stages(ones too fast, too dry on cash, or have enemies who can snipe him somehow), and often isn’t even strictly necessary(he *is* a big help when he works, but you usually don’t *need* him outside 3-Crown UL).
5:47 why is bro being condescending to us what 😂
I still think Manic Eraser is better than Cyberpunk, usage for all phases throughout your playthorugh, even in all advent stages. Sure Cyberpunk staking is like stacking ubers, but Manic Eraser lv 50 is basically almost a Eraser lv 20+90. Manic Eraser is too universal, even in gimmick stages.
It’s like comparing imaginary number i to real number 1
Saying catalite is weak it WILD
I deadass haven’t used cyberpunk in almost every stage in the game (other than a few sol stages), manic eraser not being necessary applies to cyberpunk as well.
both are harmless on their own
just use them both at same time
Your level of crazy is-10000000
Manic Eraser is the most Reliable. Super rare
Nio, i love you no homo or diddy but like, what… the videos good but ME and cyber punk are COMPLETELY different units, ones a meatshield and ones a support. Cyber punk can be used in most line ups, but can be a waste of a slot on cash tight stages unlike ME and other meat shields. Youre basically cooked if you dont got meat shields, you arent cooked if you dont have cyber punk unless its required and you need to cyber stack or sum, my points are probably ass cuz im kind of an unc now so hate all you want❤❤
Here's my take on why MEraser is better than Cyberpunk:
Manic eraser is a general meatshield, while cyberpunk is a general crowd controller.
A meatshield is a more valuable usage than a crowd controller, because units under this classification prevent your bigger attackers from taking too much damage and dying. You made a point saying that you aren't going to use manic eraser for every stage, but the same can be said for cyberpunk. And, in my opinion, you're going to use cyberpunk LESS than manic eraser, because he is just overall really impractical to use unless you're willing to dedicate tons of time to set him up to the point where he's going to be broken.
We aren't even talking about their performance yet either, as cyberpunk has a massive blindspot and would only be useful if supported by meatshields, preferably fast meatshields that are able to prevent enemies from getting into cyberpunk's range, say, a unit like manic eraser.
Overall, I believe that manic eraser is objectively the better unit here. However, both units have their uses and can be extremely broken at times, but a generalist meatshield outshines a generalist crowd controller, because a meatshield is a more valuable role than a crowd controller.
Okay, first up I think M-Eraser is a bit high called as the best unit, as he isn't all that broken, just ol' reliable and the best generalist meatshield. He is usable everywhere but not the best in the field, he never really broke anything.
However he is used basically everywhere and just because you can beat a stage without him doesn't mean he is useless. I can beat any stage without Dasli, yet she is still one of the most broken ones. And while Cyber broke literally every stage by stacking, that is the worst way to go about this as it literally takes away every bit of fun since he isn't all that fun, you are just abusing a general game mechanic. Cyber is also not that needed. I played him maybe a few times but because he is fucking boring I don't use him.
Also what use is an emergency crowd control when the enemy is meatshielded enough, or killed outright. While sometimes it is crucial to cc an enemy, it never is all that required.
As the title says, he is for emergencies while Eraser is used for everything.
So Cyber < Eraser < Slime
to be honest theyre just different units with different roles. theyre both very popular, strong and usable in a lot of scenarios. its kinda hard to compare em
This is guys Nuclear baby vs coughing bomb
Agreed
This is like a comparison between an cease and desist letter to the idea of communism, and a biased one at that.
Doesn't matter uncle Ben, both work well together
Used in him in the past, and it was for camelle, zamelle and the likes for the most part. And i do appreciate his role as backline cc but for most stages he isnt needed or i get pushed too easily bc my meatshielding didnt work (not so easy now with rock cat but i only got that 2 months ago so the majority of the time he sucked and died to most things). Now he rarely really sees use bc aku shields but if i ever need him(i suspect he will be used often in relic UL stages as my alternatives for cc are dogshit)
I was pretty ready to dispute you most of the video but I can't argue against those points you made for Cyberpunk
Solid logic
Ik this is off topic but what should I do after getting returner mode I played the game before but I kinda forgot what to do💀
Just wait, in 10 years when Manic Eraser gets talents it will easily beat Cyberpunk. Cyberpunk is only better now because it's got talents over Manic Eraser.
I don’t think they give non-gacha units talents?
Except for specials
Cyberpunk is literally not better, like, not even close, nio take's are horrible and you shouldn't listen to him for opinions about units. Go watch siluman, xskull (the newer videos, the older ones are a mess) and lucasIV, who also murdered nio in a comment here.
@@justkiwi8274 I actually liked the video and thought it was entertaining. I watch all those youtubers you've mentioned but they all kinda offer the same view. They talk about stat of the units, show off stages they're good in, and that's that. I don't know how to phrase this, but they use such generic units (level 30, non Uber, minimal talents) that their presented view of battle cats feels unrealistic. I know its to make guides as easy to match as possible but I often don't follow them as its just not how I play. I don't always agree with them but I still watch them. Nio on the other has a way more casual perspective that is closer to what I feel when playing the game. I feel way more in my ballpark when listening to Nio. I'm not going to stop watching him. Also of course Lucas IV is gonna have a huge list of Examples of how manic eraser is essential to certain stages, he's spent actual years focused on a playstyle that uses Manic Eraser.
Also I think you missed the point of the video. tldw manic eraser has alot of competition for its role as a meatshield while compared to cyberpunk who's unique in its role as a stackable long range area crowd control generalist outside of collabs/Ubers.
