Enthusiast Red Dragonbound, Gadius

Gungho gave him a ult evo but never solved his critical flaw

Sword still has no magical anime circles around it

I will trade his killer awekening with sbr any day of the week

Gadius' ult is feels like they actually put some thought into it. The stats are exactly what he needed. It always felt like he really needed a bit more health for him to use that massive rcv on and now you can have him as a lead or sub without gimping yourself on surviving a hit. His attack while low doesn't need to be that high with him having a 6x multiplier and 2 rows just on him.

The bind resist awakening are absolutely fantastic as well giving him great utility as he already has bind heal and wants heart makers on his team and because fire type is seriously weak when it comes to bind recovery. I was only able to find 2 other non-collab/event cards that are fire main type that are both unbindable and can heal bind, one being Fire Dragon Swordsman and one being R/B Ame No Uzume. The addition of ult Gadius to the roster will help flesh out a lot of fire teams that need the utility but don't want to skimp on stats or type. I know having a unbindable unbinder will make a huge difference for my fire row team.

Gadius is comin' for thy booty.

Yay I can finally ditch red riding hood on my shiva team for this awesome bind clearer.

The orb troll <6 heart orbs AS is infuriating. Idk why. It just means burning an active that creates heart orbs. I don't mind when I use Awoken Minerva for a better nuke but the heart orbs is just so annoying. Idk why. Ne1 know why? It drives me nuts, mainly bc it makes him so close to being a 10/10 perfect unit imo. That and his active is unreliable on its own I guess. Idk, it just makes me mad that I can't call him perfect despite everything he's done 4 me. I can't even see this to be a balancing issue either as to not have him be too amazing. If this is balancing, it seems dumb and pointless. Gadius deserves better from me...and from gungho.

You're gonna have a bad time.

Never heard of that devil killer before. I can't wait for this to come to NA so I can evo him😠

x3 skill-up chance. 27 red orbs. ...2 skill-ups... *slow clap begins* *applause thickens* *crowd claps louder* *whistles* *cheers louder* *more whistling* *yet louder cheers* *hysterical screaming* *standing ovation from audience*

@Gungho, can we get a Red Dragonbound armour, Ace? just like done with black dragonbound and ana. need a decent fire heartcross leader. we have dantalion and alothough he has a high attack multiplier he has no health or rcv to back it up. in this meta hes useless and with such a good pool for subs we need a good leader. please gungho some variety please:)

:/ as much as this new ult makes me want to use him again sense hes the most bad @ss looking fire monsters the ult only really helped fix minor problems with him.

1. the active is too RNG depended sense it doesn't guarantee 6 heart orbs which doesnt let you use the full extent of his leader skill and makes his bind recovery and unbindable awokens not as useful
2. he really needs some sort of x1.2 hp for dragon or fire types sense him and a lot of his subs have low HP although the HP increase on the ultimate form is really nice.
3. the lack of Skill boost and skill bind resist is semi limiting

its just semi frustrating because hes so cool and fun to use and if they only tweaked him oh so slightly he would be sooooo good.

Is this ult evo not in NA yet? Gadius is one of my favs

So is anybody going to talk about the awkward wording for Leader Skill. 2.5x attack for 1 heart combo. 3.5x attack for each heart combo after. Scales up to 6x attack at 2 heart combo.

The only way this makes since is if you add 2.5 + 3.5= 6 but even then thats unecessary wording right there unless the 3.5 hints that maybe Gadius will get a lead skill buff soon scaling up to 9.5x at 3 heart combos. 6+3.5= 9.5

Anyone know why I can't get my Lightning Gadius (#1947) to UE to this guy? He doesn't even show up as having an UE. I really want to up him, but I'm lost as to why I'm unable to do so. Any help is much appreciated.

*nm, just saw it's not in NA yet -_-

Now that Awoken Leilan uses Heart Orbs too, could he be a good sub for her? He also gives her the Light Sub-Att. she needs to activate her leader skill, and adds a few more rows.

I myself prefer to use Gadius and Awoken Minerva's Actives together for a big nuke on my main team (Row Awoken Shiva because I'm weird), but I also have Awoken Leilan as a sub in there who I want to be able to use as a leader occasionally, too.

EDIT: Wow, how my teams change in 3 months. Neither Leilan nor Minerva are on my Shiva team anymore (Gadius still is, though), and now I'm actually using Gadius himself as a leader. The team is doing good so far, and I can't wait for the LS buff.

(also obligatory Ampersand Party reference)

I'm not sure to get the leader skill.... In order to activate the 6x multiplier you need 1 set of heart combo, and two sets of let's say red combos if your team if full red ?

Does anyone know when the ultimate form will be released to North America?

I don't know what sort of enthusiast Gadius is but I'm on board.

Dragonbound Gadius...no longer bound to dragon.

So I just rolled another red gadius, my team is gadius, gadius, yamato, echidna, and shiva.

Any suggestion on replacing echidna and shiva since the team is only viable with heart converters? Dont have uriel to work with at the moment, while both red gadius does not have any skill up.

I am sure that in a year or two this may get a Ultimate evolution for its ultimate evolution and get a new leader skill that will add 0.5 more power to its ability. Maybe and additional 0.5 just for dragons or healers in either attack or hp. Hopefully in attack.

Hey they even buffed him a little on the second level of his leader skill!

Until now, 2 Gadii could stack a solid x36 Multiplier with 2 Heart Combos alone, but now it's 42,25 as if he wasn't sick enough without the buff.... xD

So I rolled 2 of them during this PCGF, which means I now have 4 Gadius.
Question is, should I sell some or keep all four and start some sort of weird team?

Finally completes his Gadius team
Gadius
Gadius
Uriel
Uriel
Uriel
Gadius

deals tons of damage with just two rows but then he realizes despite being fully maxed it still takes 5 turns to access active skills....sighs...

Seriously, why the lack of skill boost awakenings?
Gadius could really use one or two SB awakenings. It even makes more damage than my Neptune dragon team considering having less rows.

Trying to decide if there are enough different ways I want to inherit this skill to keep 5 of these. At what point do you just sell for MP? :(

When they nerf him, I'm asking for a refund.

anyone else think that Gadius needs an evolution???

Minerva would be opposites with Gadius due to his skill and her leader skill >:D

hes hot

Now it's time for reincarnated.

Apparently those abs are not enough, Gadius decides to get him pair of legs.

Guess he will fetch himself some d̶o̶n̶g̶s̶ two prongs next time, and then he can have all the ladies he want.

Soooo is this juggler? lol

.

I can't honestly say that I have a place for him as any lead or sub on any team.

However, if anyone would like to attempt to make him a viable lead/sub, please let me know. For team building fodder I have the following (only listing ones I think could even be close to viable).

DG Krishna
A. Leillan
A. Shiva
RN, Nord
Set
Dino Rider
Ronia
Ronia
Ares
Minerva
Gadius (rolled today, and really unsure how to use effectively)
Gabriel
Sun Quan
Sumire
Verdandi
Jester Dragon, DJ
Archangel Lucifer

Best I can think of is perhaps this here.
Gadius
Norn
Verdandi
Gabriel
Sumire
Gadius

Trouble is, I just can't think of any place I'd rather use this type of team when I have Bestcat, Sakuya, A. Ra, Idunna/Ryunn, teams that can clear most anything else.

Ideas?

Pretty sure people has realized this, but just wanted to point it out, if you activate his LS on a devil, that's freaking 108x Atk!!! (Did it in my head, bad a mental math) That's insane!!! And if you tpa too, that's a 162x atk, dayam!!! That's flipping insane!!! Way easier to activate then Anubis and Ra. I really want this, or his dark counter part, Typhoon.

Gadius sub
