DISCLAIMER: This guide is more for F2P players with limited BTs. Going forward, I will give insights on why the unit is good or bad, so that you can make your own informed decision. Due to everyone’s own unique line-up, BT count, situation, new units and constantly changing meta, I will NOT be advising on pulling or not.

SKILL KIT

Role: AOE DPS / Silence / Non-CRIT DMG FREE / Minions Follow-up /Heal
Type: Esper/Monster (Dragon)

Basic: Heals an ally by 150% ATK
Ultimate: Deals 5 consecutive attacks to all targets, dealing damage by 160% ATK. Has a 100% chance to inflict [Silence] on the main target and 1 random enemy for 1 round (Unable to perform [Ultimate], but [Ultimate Follow-up] will not be affected
Passive: After any character’s action, if a support dies, launches [Ultimate Follow-up] (80% damage and effect). Permanently grants 60% Non-Crit DMG Free (effective for all types of DMG, cannot co-exist with [Agility])

Awaken Passive: When battle begins, summons 1 Candle Monster for itself and ally in the same column separately. (Unable to summon if ally has more support characters than Gyoro-gyoro). Candle Monster will inherit 100% basic ATK of Gyoro-gyoro. After any character’s action, every Candle Monster has a 50% chance to launch [Follow-up] against any enemy which is not in any [Unyielding] state, dealing damage by 150% ATK. After Candle Monster moves 4 times or [Self-detonation] when Gyoro-gyoro is defeated, deals 200% ATK to 3 random enemies.

Ultra-Ultimate:
ATK DMG 160% > 250%
Inflict Silence 1 random enemy > 2
Extreme Passive:
Ultimate Follow-up 80% > 100%
Non-Crit DMG Free 60% > 65%
5P Passive:
Ultimate Follow-up 100% > 120%
Non-Crit DMG Free 65% > 70%
Awakened 2:
Summons Candle 1 > 2

• To see which units are Silenced, you can see a floating purple halo above the unit’s head
• [Silence] cannot be stacked. Faster character is unable to perform Ultimate in the next round.
• Formal set works for [Silence]
• Gyoro’s [Ultimate Follow-up] only triggers once per round and only if the support character dies. (CE+ dog does not die so it is not counted)
• [Ultimate Follow-up] can also inflict [Silence]
• Silence can be affected by Hit% and Res% (At present, the beta server is not affected by hit and resistance, but will be tested after the official server is released)
• Keepsake is recommended if you have characters that summon support
• [Silence] is removed after [Reborn]

GEAR

Suggested gear:

Gyoro is more of a support, he’s there really for the silence effect not so much to deal damage. You can build him for SPD so he will move and silence first.

Buff Gear:
Monster ATK% – SPD if you want to silence first!
Dragon ATK% – ATK
Esper ATK% – ATK

SO WHY SSR+GYORO?

Pros:

• New mechanic Silence is super powerful, preventing units affected from ulting.
• Mostly useful for PVP, but silence will also affect (some?) PVE units. Bosses are probably immune.
• Strong in LC no doubt
• Synergizes well with the Burst/Cruel tactics set – Follow-up ult will also apply Silence

Cons:

• KS is a must if you want to maximise his potential, increasing silence to 2 enemies
• Needs characters with summon support so as to synergize with his passives. Characters like Gouketsu+, Boros+ etc

FINAL THOUGHTS

If you are competitive in PVP AND you have characters with summons, then yes Gyoro is a great addition to the team. It is a must-pick for whales.

For F2Ps I don’t think it’s worth it but it’s up to you.

WHAT ABOUT KS?

Definitely yes if you’re intending to build him. Otherwise not really.

DID YOU KNOW…

Gyoro Gyoro (ギョロギョロ, Gyorogyoro) was the meat puppet of Psykos. He existed as an independent entity that allowed Psykos to manage the Monster Association without revealing her identity.
