GBO2 Column #010: Hyaku-Shiki
The struggle and resilience of the Golden Raid. (Context: Oct 22, 2020)
Expectations vs. Reality
Debuting on New Year's Day 2020, the Hyaku-Shiki faced a cold initial reception on the ground. It took significant adjustments and the addition of higher levels to restore its reputation as a premier Raid machine.
The "Mobility" Specialist
As a 550-cost Raid, its true value lies in its exceptional maneuverability:
- Smooth Handling: Top-class horizontal movement and high turning performance.
- Defense: Compact physique, high-level evasion, and superior beam resistance.
- Combat: Two instant-stagger options paired with exceptionally fast melee motions.
Survivor of the Meta
The shift toward shooting attacks favors its beam-resistant nature. In an era where most Raids struggle to approach, its small hitbox and high responsiveness are its greatest survival tools.
The gold that never fades—redefining agility in the 550+ cost environment.
