Eagle Jet. What more could you want from a jet than fast moving lasers and a MELEE ATTACK?
Okay, it's honestly really niche, and you'd get more mileage out of even a Blue Striker- but it offers a relatively unique experience and a VERY high skill ceiling. Especially against other air units, the way you do have to manually align your nose to the target presents a really "Top gun" play style. If you've ever played any military or dogfighting sims (or even space dogfighting, ala the X series), you're probably familiar with the special way you need to lead your shots too. It's to the point where I can picture the target's projected position (based on current momentum).
It's just really fun.

I just bodied Sho and Yuji with a single Panther Robot. Dude is way more boss than I remember him being. [sarasm] Why does no one like him again? [/sarcasm]

Wire Girl is a lot more fun than I remember. Also I just took out well over half of the CDD Unit with one. While they were throwing Barrier Girls, Build Robots, and a Proto Panther at me. One of the better uses of 220 GFE, I'd say.

Take the effectiveness of Battle Girl or just the offensive abilities of Barrier Girl, and then add the ability to move while shooting a charge shot. Seriously, she must be the only girl borg who can do that! Pretty awesome, plus you can ascend to any height given the time. 'Tis a shame she doesn't get as much fanart as the other girl borgs though. She's always ignored in favor of Battle Girl, Command/Barrier Girl, or Killer/Shadow Girl.

Blue Striker is the only one of them that can move while using a remotely powerful projectile. Blue Striker is also boring.

Arrow Ninja... It's been so long since I used it. I forgot how cool its jump is. Pretty cool looking borg, too. It goes without saying, but those grapple arrows are so useful and decently accurate. Shuriken normally suck, but Arrow Ninja has such a large ammo pool of them that they're bound to hit as you toss streams of them. It's also hilarious to hook something in midair. Hm, Teleport Ninja is getting some heated competition.
I need to try out more borgs, really. It's been a long time since I don't just use my favorite ones, I'm bound to find a new destiny borg... I also like Shuriken Ninja a bit. Stupidly dull to play, but I never realized how cool he looks.

I also like Shuriken Ninja a bit. Stupidly dull to play, but I never realized how cool he looks. While i dont have all the borgs yet, i can agree with this. I play my favs and ignore the "sucky" ones. And while some of those said sucky ones actually do suck, a few are diamonds in the rough. Anywho, i have grown very fond of anubis rather quickly. His charge b... he is like g red if g red was a demon thing. Beam samurai, got him today. Rather fun to use. If a bit confusing, once i figure out how the cpu has been reflecting attacks back at me ill have him mastered. (In explaination, it seems that 90% of the time i fight him, i end up using a borg with a beam weapon, said beams narrowly miss him, and then four seconds?(dome infitisimally small time lapse later) a beam comes out of him and hits me. Or i dodge it. I suppose it could be my ally missing horribly, but usually the angle is wrong for it to be their shot too...) Antares, ..... meh. I enjoyed my first use of him, but well, frankly his shots take too long to fire and recharge. Without mana hes a duck. Oh and the alpha wing. Does the most damage by ramming into the borg, which it fails to do 75% of the time. (The alpha wings launch sound is cool though) i feel like im not really doing anything. When i use him/it? At least sirius has a charge... Which brings me to sirius. Again..... meh, his attacks are fun i guess, and if you dont blow all your ammo on a charge shot hes/its? Rather good at dishing out the hurt, but again the shots take too long, and i can only use one attack at a time. Which is great.... wait the b attack doesnt do much, and the x one is slow and cumbersome. In hyper mode, he is great, spam charge and watch things go poof. Otherwise... meh ill stick go plasma dragon. Sasuke: i thoroughly enjoyed norm ninja, and cool flips and stuff (*still giddy about that spin move*) to his attacks and giving him a cooler paint job only makes me enjoy him even more. Beam gunner: i have found my enjoyment of beam gunner is rather high upon vicotry and low upon deefat. I do like his recharge speed though. Saphire knight: finally got old saphs.... oh look its gold hero with less ammo and a boost jump... i guess his shots reloading faster and the shield are pluses but i am kinda saddened by him, i mean it took five playthroughs to get one, and i enjoy ruby knight more?! I got rubes in play 1... So im gonna stop dogging on borgs i thought id enjoy more now and ill (never) stop praising sasuke for being awesome. This concludes my post

Fun fact: Wire Gunner is the only Borg with Air Jump, a machine gun, and an average falling speed. (Gatling Gunner, the only other one with Air Jump and a machine gun, falls about twice as fast.) The wire's still pointless outside of advanced team tactics, though.

I have discovered the single greatest shenanigan in gotcha force.
Victory king/duke/baron has knee cap machine guns.
Now you me be saying "duh metal, its a transformer, they have to store somewhere in robot mode. And you would be correct. However, were you aware that they actually functioned in robot mode? Id wager that unless ive been living under a crater sized rock you werent."
Anywho, hold b to charge, when maxed release then rehold, the spin sword thing should activate, but because you are holding b, it will continue to go, giving you a missile/melee shield, if you stand in a corner. And after like 1 second the machine guns rotate up and begin firing at whatever your locked onto.
They track too, albeit rather slowly and they dont aim up or down, in the event they shoot other than straight ahead, the game spazzes and is like "herpa derpa terk ur jerbs! Machin gurns cant du dat!" And auto corrects them to shoot straight ahead again.
I have a newfound appreciation for them because of this quirky attack.
Also proto king lacks the hardware required for said attack. He can use the spin sword longer if you press release hold. Or probably just hold x? Sadlt its less impressive due to lacking kneee cap guns.
Also also, beam samurai is amazing. Now to get him alt so i cam enjoy him even more.

Sadlt its less impressive due to lacking kneee cap guns. Greatest part about it is the unlimited ammo. It's like Gatling Gunner if he couldn't move or turn lol. I usually use it after I'm done comboing some one so that they get hit by the stream of bullets when they get up. I believe the Victory borgs can extend the windmill slash for however long you hold down the button. So just hold down X with Proto King to stay in Windmill Slash.

Nah it expires after like roughly 10-15 seconds. Maybe longer? But its not totally indefinate. Actually i think protos might be to compensate for lack of leg guns. But duke and baron stop spinning after awhile.

But duke and baron stop spinning after awhile. Nope, the only difference between Proto Windmill and Victory Windmill is Proto doesn't have guns for knees. Also Proto can just pull the Windmill out of nowhere on a whim, which could be considered compensation were it not for the fact that that's just how Protos work.

Newfound appreciation for Normal Ninjas... Yep.. I was doing "The Hot Battle" and I decided to fill up my extra slots with some cheap borgs, so I put in an Alternative coloured Normal Ninja... and woaw... he served his purpose! He was taking on those Fire Ninjas and dodging EVERYTHING they threw at him! Then I got utterly combo'd by 3 of them.. AND LIVED! (One of them did that "Spinny" attack they do as well!) Anyho he had like 3 or something HP and he still lasted a long time till he just got caught on one of their shots.. darn..
Then... My Blade Wing came in to clean up the mess! (MUWHWAHWHAWHAHWHAHWHAHHWHAHWHAHWHAH... Yes...)

(MUWHWAHWHAWHAHWHAHWHAHHWHAHWHAHWHAH... Yes...) Normal ninja is beast XD also anubis wing is my blade wing. I love that guy. I newly appreciate cyber hero. Like i did before, but last night is discovered that you can dual charge his attacks, and in a very mmz fashion, combo one into the other. Which is devastating against most things. Also darn, sucks about pk not having a longer windmill. , however i like his lesser cost, and having access to the windmill without the charge time. Now if i could just get VK my victory team would be finished.

Imperial Knight is actually pretty great. "Well duh, have you seen that infinite-" Forget the infinite, his Alpha combo is also his dash attack, his landing attack, and his air attack. If Imperial Knight wants to combo a thing, something's getting comboed, period. And of course he can also cancel it into an Omega slash, so there's that.
