Pai-Pai is the reason why Shy Boy had to wear a mask with a smile for hours at a time.
(It didn't work out btw cuz that Shy Boy who stares at the ceiling still got wrecked anyway)

I can’t tell if it’s funny or sad that Emma still hasn’t gotten a true form
Edit: After 3 years, 2 months, and 27 days, Emma has gotten a true form. Truly the Emma moment of all time
As someone who refuses to true form octo i want her true form

Have you ever considered a ranking of all the "standard," trait-specific special abilities (knockback, slow, freeze, dodge, strong against, etc.)? Excluding warp/toxic obviously because no cats have that. Maybe to make it so freeze isn't objectively better than slow and the insane stat modifiers aren't objectively better then their counterparts, how accessible each ability is could be taken into consideration. Target only could be fairly included too, if one were to consider the tradeoff of the unit having absolutely cracked stats to be a part of the ability
lets see.
1. MD
2. Freeze
3. strong
4.slow
5 knockback
did I miss anything?
??: dodge
last:curse
1. Freeze
2. Slow
3. Resist/Insane resist
4. Massive/Insane damage
5. Target only (we’re assuming that the unit gets insane stats)
6. Dodge
7. Strong
8. Weaken
9. Knock back
10. Curse
11. Beast killer
12. Base destroyer
13. Baron killer
@@lgachaboyyt resistance and weaken
lasvoss reborn has all crowd control exepct dodge
Freeze is up there, worst is probably strong
I've had Pai-Pai for a year now and she never disappoints me.
I even got her a second time from my platinum ticket from clearing Cotc chapter 3.
Emma has such a cool design and cool idea on paper but i’m still so surprised at how hard ponos dropped the ball on her design. Thought with the Aku fruit being our she’d have a TF that needs it by now but maybe they are saving her for cubes? Hoping her TF and Talents are worth it cuz she shouldn’t be this bad
They're waiting for surge blocker ability to come out probably, then she'll get true form
@@bosssnurp5912 or they could ship it with her like with cat machine
I REALLY think that hell warden emma is misunderstood af. The reason she has so many knockbacks is to prevent getting annihilated by something with a higher dps and shorter range. Think about hermit cat. Because of her many knockbacks, she would only take one rather than all of his hits, allowing her to last longer. Although she is likely the worst buster unit, i really think that even though she is, she has some redeeming and very valuable qualities.
@@bosssnurp5912 I wouldn’t wait one surge blocker it’s a lot harder to put that into practice since its rng spawning for surge the best I think we get is counter surge(kinda broken but maybe with a 25% decrease in damage) but other than that we have curse
Well, do I have some news for you!
Strike Unit Rei is defenitely one of the coolest looking ubers, and it makes me pretty happy that she isn't a bad uber cause she's currenly on my most wanted uber wishlists.
I just got her
@@noodle457 lucky
I got her as my second ever
She remained to be my best cat even through chapter 3 itf and chapter 1 cotc
@zeke3620 I also got strike untit rei pretty recently and she's great she helps me a lot and glad I got her plus in true formed her because she was that good and Glad I got her and true formed was 100% worth it great uber
@@zeke3620All the ITF bosses are floating, and Rei makes floating enemies look easy
It's honestly criminal how shit Emma is, like, what exactly were they even going for with her overall kit design?
criminal lol
Too many KB, and low range that's killed her the most
@@huang111 i rather they give her like 1 mil+ base hp to lean into the tank/wave blocker that does no dmg
Ok but hear me out. What makes Pai Pai a very great specialist is the dumpling on the top of her head. It’s clearly taunting opposing red enemies!
*yes*
And the dumpy on top of her legs. Taunts them them hard
Emma's true form should lower her knockback count
Nah just increase her hp to like 2mil or something
@@technodry3216 oh wtf 💀💀💀
Not even, just raise the knockback along with health.
(they didnt)
I really like the design of rei, she hits damn hard against floating
But hoping there would be top best ubers without fest ubers (new)
The saddest part about Emma aside from her TF basically fixing nothing is how her big flaws, her low range and high knockbacks, are only flaws because both are present. If she had less knockbacks but kept her range, that would still be tolerable because she's tanking more damage, damage that she's softening occasionally, and still doing her job of nullifying waves. If she had the same number of knockbacks but had like 350 range, her knockbacks would be amazing because she could reposition back into safe spots in response to heavy pushes, allowing her to keep outranging the Wavers. But instead she's got the worst of both worlds.
Aside from the 420 range, Sakura also has a 6.9 attack rate. Pretty suspicious PONOS 🤨📸
the funny number 😤😤😤
Rei was my first ever uber, she is honestly so good, thanks to her survivability and nice damage I can use her as a generalist
Wdym surviability?
@@AFROGCALLEDITE resist against floating, decent knockback count and good base health
Idk why, but for me she does easily😂
Finally! I've wanted to see this for months
I have sakura. I also have hayabusa though, and since hes more of an offensive unit i usually pick him instead of sakura, or I'll use them together. I wish ponos made her an offensive unit instead of a crowd controller, but i guess that would make her too OP
Edit: fixed typo
What do you mean with defensive unit? Sakura has 300k effective hp with 4kbs and weaken, i think that's pretty defensive
Sakura’s tf makes her look like hayabusa’s sister tho
Isn't tanking metal a terrible idea
@@ultraman4704 yeah, but defensive units doesn't have to be tanks
@@iker9095 oh ok
i wanna see you do a ranking of the exclusive super rares next
It would cool to see a ranking of the best and worst ubers for certain traits or niches
Devs: Ok let’s take manic legs and octopus cat
Emma: I’m listening
Devs: and then make it worse…
Emma: *brilliant*
True lol
Guess who got 2 Emma's and used both..
THAT'S RIGHT ME
LMAO
For me beside Emma all exclusive ubers are good and share rank 1 three of them. Rei & Pai Pai are great nuker & fullfill the purpose about what nuker uber should be while Sakura when she have poor crit chance but have many usefull debuff in one single swing. Pai Pai & Sakura also good generalist while Rei is not that good on that but she also workable as generalist on some circumstance.
But still for me Rei is the best floating nuker in the game. Is really weird when Xskull even didnt rank her as top 5 good floating uber.
Fr dude. Rei isnt better than Saber but she is much better then windy
I got REI as one of my first Ubers in the game and got Pai Pai recently. Both cracked but I love REI more
I honestly just really like REI's design
Mostly solid units with the exception of Emma. Too bad step-up is not usually worth to roll.
It may not be worth to roll but I’ll continue to do so if it means having a shot at getting Pai Pai, too many of the stages I am stuck on include reds 🥲
Imo step up is worth it, depending on the event. I did a step up and got Cat Base Jr, Metal Cat and Kai. I don't remember what event it was though lol
@@road__house Yea, you can get lucky, but the problem with step-up is that it's 2100 cat food for 1 guaranteed uber. You don't really have control over what you get in 14/15 draws, so in general guaranteed uber 11 draws are more worth.
@@IAmJustAPerson The first step up is always worth it in terms of uber to draw conversion rate
@@edwinzou3624 Yea, that's fair. I still think normal guaranteed 11 draws are more worth your cat food tho, but that's just me.
Only 3 ways to improve her without changing her completely are
An increase in range (ranged waveblockers are rare)
80% or higher weaken uptime
Or Strong (double hp)
All keep her general flavor and build but just make her good enough to be viable beyond COTC stages that prevent most waveblockers (she tanks an axolotly hit with treasures so there's that)
Just removing kb count wouldn't fix her and she would still be only mildly viable. An increase in range makes her more useful as a ranged waveblocker that repositions is very good and any increase in hp on her is busted as when weaken is active, she h as more hp than Hades. Strong of course completely breaks her as she now becomes an insane generalist tank that rivals Hades AND has weaken to make her hp busted beyond belief.
There is still hope for our wave buster and Ponos might make her busted simply to sell more cat food as busters usually isn't drawn outside red/air and only if needed.
They should go back, And make a new Emma, Change KB count from like 10, To like, 3,
And make her DPS twice as good, And Weakness more consistent,
Would she even be good with 2x DPS, and 3x Resiliance?
I have R.E.I. She and some other units carried me through the Stories of Legends.
No wonder I breezed through most of early game. I got hella lucky and pulled Pai Pai as one of my first ubers. I see red enemy, I go Pai Pai
Do you think you can start redoing your reviews on Collab units? I think a popular Collab would probably be either Madoka Magica or Neon Genesis Evangelion.
That should only really happen if a collab comes back with new units, true forms or a shift in meta occurs
Hey xskull, will you rerank the legends special units after uncanny legends ends?
It may be years until UL ends, new chapters are added so often
@@road__house we only have 5 or 6 more ul chapters before ul ends.
BTW there is a new ul chapter on the horizon it called moodyst beach
2 years before i gotten Sakura... I losed My account with an warlock and Pierre i started back the last month and gotten an legend rare
yay pai pai was my very first uber!
i want pai pai to squish me with that hammer /j
If you're like me who has has Emma but not kotatsu cat, she's not completely useless. Given that many wave enemies are single target and have short range, it's possible to keep her protected and protecting with proper meatshields, and she saved my butt with my first Berserkory.
Still desperately needs a true form though, and without it is like the Monster Girls of the busters. Weak and forgotten.
If u are in UL, u have to have octopus
@@crazycat482 he obviously isn’t in UL
@@eee_eee i was just clarifying that xskull refers to end game meta in his rankings, so he takes into account UL, where u should hace octo, so enma is tr4sh
Me: Gets Manic Macho Legs before any True Forms
My friends: How
Me: Hell Warden Emma was my second uber
@@lucc33 Jameira and RNG for Birb, for the others just use cheese units like octo for gross or cyber for wall
@@lucc33 also; Lizard is easy if you have Gross, Cyberpunk OP, and with true forms like Cyber or Camera, or Cyborg, it’s really easy.
Pai Pai is one of the Ubers I want to get at some point.
But honestly? I'm kinda considering getting Hell Warden Emma instead, just to take the piss out of the fandom.
Here for a TF sometime.
I got lucky and got Pai Pai as one of my first Ubers, never even realized how good they were till I started destroying red stages. Pai Pai is a absolute must if you see the busters event pop up
@@courtneydzbynski4283 Here, here mate
Chad
Next is ranking all monekos&nenekos from worst to best
I hope you can read this comment and make a video
I wonder what "improvements" PONOS will give these units once they get a true form.
Expecting more units like this: Black busters, Zombies busters, Angel busters, Surge busters etc.
I'm not sure we will have other "busters" since most of them already have their own collections, as Vajiras are all anti-black, ultra souls are anti-angel, iron legion is anti-zombie, dark heroes anti-alien.
@@almeidalopes All the buster banners consist of one unit though.
It could work.
The only buster exclusive i have is goddess of light sirius and shes not even on here :(
I do love her lot. Amaterasu and her go with me in my generalist team
Well she’s the best by far so you have that going for her
I was lucky enough to get paipai though the 3 step thing (300 cf roll,then 750 then 1050 for the guarantee uber spin) and already tf her that day and man i love her!
Is it just me or is the way he drew rei on the thumbnail seems a bit… different?
i can tell the next ranking video is going to be festive
never knew i was into robot women till now
kirby's soundrack is amazing in batle cats change my mind
Wish we got relic or aku busters or maybe even a traitless buster due to lack of treasures against them
Edit:and due to the common theme on busters that they are women and somehow appropriate their theme for their target we might have a shaman for relics and a maid of some sorts for akus (i dunno about traitless tho, maybe a "normal" schoolgirl?)
Traitless busters - epicfest ubers?
@@69Paulin oh yeah i forgor💀
When I was doing crazed fish, the only critter I bring down was the buster Uber of the metal busters but she never critted that was OK since I destroyed the base because sniper cat knocked back the super metal hippo behind the base, so I was able to destroy it
When i got R.E.I.
She carry me stage that has floting and some boss
Good time but i got Kasil the bane carry instead
pai pai is one of my favorite ways of dealing with professor A
I pulled Emma from a platinum ticket 😭
Helpful video, I´ve gotten Rei and I really wanted to know how good she is.
Sakura also has a combo with Waitress/Soba for Def up S, so it's a great synergy for anti-metal
i think Sakura Sonic is the best becouse of surge and wave immune also she had amazing survivability, Sakura Sonic is general good Uber for almost every stage but her stats kinda sucks non-metal stages
Fun Fact: With Fast Attack, Lots of KB, Weaken and Wave Protection, I Literally Destroyed Aku Kori And Metal Croco With Emma.
I remember having Pai Pai, but, being the idiot I was, I deleted my game and didnt write down the code for recovery, but I will get her! I already have Chronos, Pai Pai will be mine! Edit: Guess who got pai pai? After a whole year, It finnaly hapaned
Hi XSkull. I have a quick question. I recently got huntress terun and went to your channel to see how good she is but didn't see her in your galaxy gals tier list. Is she a good or bad unit?
Check out Siluman Tomcat's ranking
I also have to say that with R.E.I I feel floating enemies are more powercreeped. Tell me one enemy that feels like cancer to fight without R.E.I, asides from gobbles not many right? Then think of the same thing with red enemies and Pai-Pai. You immediately think of cappy and prof .A and now we got red nrg. The units feel very similar however their counters are different leading to Pai-Pai feeling more necessary to bring into a stage with the cancer red enemies then to bring R.E.I into a stage with floating enemies.
bun bun (and it's variants, with the exception of relic bun) might be painful to deal with in early game
@@oneup117gaming4 yea but like every other uber are good in early
@@none4328 yah true 👍 I get pai pai is better but assault rei also demolish her trate
Really all bunbun except relic are floating most cyclone all itf bosses cotc 1 boss
Sorry for being offtopic but I'm sad right now. I'm on a trip and you freaking can't play battle cats offline anymore? I just need 4 blue cat fruits to TF tecoluga and im gonna wait for 1 whole week again wtf.. I thought you can play it offline, all it says now is "Cannot acces the Network" Cmon man
We need a Sirius ranking❤
It's obviously number 1. It's on par with the fest ubers and a better colossus slayer than daliasan
@@phud69I’ve got both of them. But thanks❤
Kinda sad that you didnt talk about sakura's generalist capabilities, especially since her talents focus on that and she doesn't seem to have bad stats, except for damage ofc, she's an anti metal after all but that could be fixed with some boost, right?
Her damage isn't horrible, investing a few levels in her damage up talent already makes her dps pretty average
Yeah Sakura's generalist use should push her up higher because of her talents making her an anti-wave and anti-surge uber, along with the general HP and attack boost.
Cool art
what if you ranked all of the gacha rares or super rares, that’d be cool, like i could imagine the awesome art you could make of like cameraman cat next to cyborg cat. that would be pretty cool
Rare/super rare rankings have already been done by others
I got Pai Pai on my second try when I started the game again because I got my other account deleted and I don't regret it
In live stream almost everyone talked about Jizo but I still mean Mitama is more good (I have both of them lol)
jizo # 1
@@matthewmea3566 Well is a very good Uber but not the best bruh
Make a video ranking every single cat in the game
I have none of these gals and I don't seem to be missing out on much with the exception of the top 2.
Kinda dumb making something specifically for anti-wave that cannot deal with wave enemies and is outclassed by an easy to find super rare...
I have rei
I think you should rank the banners from worst to best next.
Could you do a generalist ranking because I would like to know what is best against traitless without having epicfest ubers
@@huang111 that’s fair, but I mostly meant general usage and not specific counters
@@randomunovafan2787 Xskull already made a best Uber ranking without fest Ubers.
hooray
I once rolled a platinum ticket and got pai pai
So I know you said Pai Pai is the best, and with your explanation I agree. But why are you doing the Crazed Axe stage????
Kirby music=dr.Xskull vids
Best: Pai Pai
High tier: Strike Unit Rei
Medium tier: Sakura Sonic
Low tier: Hell Warden Emma
Rei has a true form?? apparently half of the busters have tfs?? since when?
You should do all fest Ubers next
I wanna see fest exclusives ranked
i have pai pai lvl 44, carried me throughout pretty much every red spam stage 💀
Cool rankin hehe
Cool video
You are going to rank all the neneko and moneko?
(P.s I think easter neneko is the worst one ever in the neneko and moneko set)
Emma HEAVY carried me through the crazed gross stage though.
lol crazed gross is easy as hell you should be able to do it without even beating itf 1-2
wish they would give Emma a TF. It doesn't make sense that she doesn't have one. Then again she probably wouldn't become any better
2:05 and mybe cat machine?
"sakura has has a very poor 5% crit" and "it's unreliable and should not be your whole strat" hmm
(no it isn't wrong, it's just hmmm)
They should make an exclusive Uber set that’s just ‘Busters’
Too op
All buster exclusives is crazy
Can you please do a Superfest ranking plus lil valkuries
How would Sirius rank with these, number 1?
Yes
The kb on emma just makes me sad.
I want rei and my friend has pai pai rei would help for the white cyclone and perfect last stage for both
Lmao. I got Emma at the very beginning stages of the game and i got so excited, as it was my first uber. Then after watchin this video i realised how bad it is. :( they NEEED to add a true for to decrease emma's kb count
The fact that they gave the anti-metal buster long distance still confuses me. Why Ponos???
I think its because ponos has issues, jokes aside its useful in SOME stages, but like you don't want a kinda good unit for 3 stages to suck at there rest
Ponos likes to give strong anti metals long distance for some reason *kyosaka* , *heyabusa*
Sakura Sonic doesn't have LD though.
I have both Pai Pai and the tiger claw but I mostly use tiger claw because I feel he is easier to control, should I be using Pai Pai over the tiger claw.
Yay! I got Pai-Pai in BCJP😁😁😁
so, who do you think is better... Eva 02, or Pai-Pai?
Do you know pai pai can 1v1 the boss that gives bullet train cat and its true form.
Hehe. What you think a new buster could be? (Also I think Emma is just a idea of a PONOS member cuz she ain't have tf. lol)
I agree with Sakura she is a OP anti-metal for middle and starting players.
Good top
I already know the ranking before I even watch the video lol, poor Enma, she is so bad, even worse than Cat machine in both wave blocking and tanking, I only have Sakura as my buster and overall I would say she does a pretty good job at ccing metals
Why did I have to get the ONE buster exclusive that was bad, waste of a plat ticket
who’s Emma I have never seen her even in videos
Strike unit rei was my first uber... at chapter 3 bun bun was completely destroyed
Can you show your best possible deck
