Overview
Adapted with permission from the Housamo Gameplay-Based Tier List. Remove this disclaimer when Overview is sufficiently modified.
☆3/☆4 Gunzo
Gunzo’s skills somewhat contradict each other. He’s a Berserk unit, meaning he already needs obligatory defensive buffs if he wants to last at all, this already makes Default pointless on top of his Charge not being good past damage, which is where his much-needed defensive buff lies, thus making his LB1 somewhat pointless too. However, with the new skill evolution The Lovesick+, this issue is mostly mitigated, making the use of his LB3 much more exploitable.
☆5 Valentine Gunzo
Thanks to Berserk and Fighting Spirit, Gunzo (Valentine) sees benefit in considerably increased damage, which along with his element and attack range can prove quite powerful, he’s also a considerable CP battery thanks to Charge and LB3, with Acceleration easily stacking with other CP sources, that through LB1 he applies to himself to reach his Charge faster. It’s perhaps the main source of CP he can give to his allies while nuking away the victims hit by it. What drags him down is the fact that Berserk with no way to reduce incoming damage automatically makes his durability rather poor, it’s no use having an unit that’s KO’d in 1-2 hits at most and he actually needs to be hit in order to get Fighting Spirit going, so if you want to use him at all, you must absolutely consider defensive buffs at minimum, or else he’s as good as dead by the start of the match.
Highlights
Adapted with permission from the Housamo Gameplay-Based Tier List. Remove this disclaimer when Highlights is sufficiently modified.
☆3/☆4 Gunzo
Class: Glass Cannon, Offensive Support
Gameplay role:
Pros
+ LB2 Berserk helps his damage quite well in exchange of worsened durability, said damage also extending to his Charge.
+ LB makes him a moderately good CP battery, Accel being a buff that easily stacks with other CP methods.
Cons
- Berserk, with him having no way to patch up its negatives (past Charge, which won’t do much) makes his durability pretty terrible, even more so against Water. This weakness is greatly mitigated by evolving the skill, however.
- From the above point, it also makes his Default useless since he should be discouraged from being hit at all.
- His Charge isn’t anything worth noting past potentially good damage, trivializing his Default and LB1.
☆5 Valentine Gunzo
Class: Glass Cannon, Offensive Support
Gameplay role:
Pros
+ Default Berserk along with LB2 bolsters his damage considerably, which also applies to his Charge, that by itself is fantastic to fill up his and his allies’ CP.
+ LB1 Acceleration allows him to reach his fantastic Charge faster.
+ LB3 has an amazing effect range as well as applying basically LB1, whose benefits have already been stated.
Cons
- Berserk makes his durability pretty terrible, which makes LB2 a bonus that’s generally hard to get.
- LB3 may have a fantastic effect range and buff, but it’s gated by a so-so proc rate.

The main idea of this team is to use Gunzo (Valentine) for his CP charging abilities to get his teammates to CS. Due to Valentine Gunzo and Thunderbird having charge skills which bestow CP to self and allies for every enemy hit, this makes them ideal partners for getting charge skills back to speed. Similarly, Astaroth can effectively charge CP after activating their CS by becoming None type and having access to ComboATK Down by 0.6x (excepting charge attacks), attack twice each turn for 2 turns (Buff). Finally, Chernobog (Beachside) acts as a release valve for CP, quickly gaining his CS back by the previously listed CP charging from his allies.
As Valentine Gunzo's primary weakness is a lack of sustainability from no innate access to damage mitigation or healing, Beachside Chernobog and Astaroth exist to patch up said areas while respecting Valentine Gunzo's moveslut status. Specifically UnctionDEF Up by 0.85x ~ 0.425x, +150~300HP every turn for 2 turns (Buff) from Beachside Chernobog and DEF UpDEF Up by 0.9x ~ 0.45x for 4 turns (Buff) from Astaroth help mitigate damage, and both units are able to heal through flat healing and through Unction again and Blessing+300~600HP/turn for 4 turns (Buff). These combined effects are enough to support Valentine Gunzo's weaknesses.
Thunderbird is particularly chosen here in this team for his LB3's effect which gives him a guaranteed +14CP for every enemy hit to himself. This is a really large amount of CP charging so any extra amount of CP from his allies makes it easily possible to CS every other turn. His access to extra horizontal movement and the ability to bestow CritATK Up by 2x ~ 4x for 1 turn (Buff) to allies are also nice bonuses. His CS also gives out Reflect DebuffReflect debuff once for 4 turns. Vanishes after use. (Buff) to the entire team, allowing for some form of debuff prevention which is nice.
Offensively, this team deals quite a bit of damage due to Beachside Chernobog's application of ArdorATK Up by 1.2x ~ 2.4x, +5CP/turn for 2 turns (Buff) and Astaroth's ATK UpATK Up by 1.1x ~ 2.2x for 4 turns (Buff) stacking with Thunderbird's innate ConcentrationATK Up by 1.1x ~ 2.2x, skill activation rate +10% for 2 turns (Buff) and Valentine Gunzo's Berserk+ATK Up by 1.3x ~ 2.6x, DEF Down by 1.3x for 4 turns (Buff) and VigorATK Up by 1.2x ~ 2.4x for 3 turns (Buff) if it procs. Lastly, CritATK Up by 2x ~ 4x for 1 turn (Buff) can be applied from Beachside Chernobog's CS and from Thunderbird's regular attack for the benefit of their later allies.
On one final note, this team is better suited for vertically long maps (6x3 and 6x5). Due to Valentine Gunzo's extra vertical movement, he can ferry Astaroth to the back line in order to proc their when missing skills regardless of weapon type which is a nice ability to have that is unable to be performed in shorter maps.
