Posted at the request of MonoDragon, these are a few tests of Gigant Gaia as a KO Defense Layer.
Equipment:
B-08 Burst Standard Stadium
Long Winder (for G2 and Valtyrek)
String Launcher (for V2)
Procedure:
G2 launched first every time
G2 straight shot in the center of the stadium at 90%ish power
V2KX and V.2C.A sliding shot
VHS straight shot at 100% power
Gigant Gaia Gravity Unite vs. Victory Valkyrie Knuckle Xtreme
G2GU: 15 wins (2 KO, 4 Burst, 9 OS)
V2KX: 5 wins (all KO)
Gigant Gaia win rate: 75%
Gigant Gaia Gravity Unite vs. Valtyrek 2Cross Accel
G2GU: 17 wins (2 KO, 12 Burst, 3 OS)
V.2C.A: 3 wins (1 KO, 2 OS)
1 tie (DBF) redone
Gigant Gaia win rate: 85%
Gigant Gaia Gravity Unite vs. Valtyrek Heavy Survive
G2GU: 14 wins (3 KO, 9 Burst, 2 OS)
VHS: 6 wins (1 KO, 3 Burst, 2 OS)
2 ties (DBF) redone
Gigant Gaia win rate: 70%
Gigant Gaia Down Yielding vs. Victory Valkyrie Knuckle Xtreme
G2DY: 12 wins (7 OS, 5 Burst)
V2KX: 8 wins (7 KO, 1 Burst)
3 ties (DBF) redone
G2DY win rate: 60%
Gigant Gaia Heavy Defense vs Victory Valkyrie Knuckle Xtreme
G2HD: 10 wins (5 OS, 5 Burst)
V2KX: 10 wins (8 KO, 2 Burst)
7 ties (6 DBF, 1 DKO) redone
G2HD win rate: 50%
From what I've seen, it's pretty unburstable even on Gravity Unite, and really difficult to KO even with a dedicated KO Attack setup. Its only drawback seems to be its poor Stamina, V.2C.A and VHS were able to outspin it multiple times, and V2KX came dangerously close a few times as well. It has a decent bit of Burst Attack as well - attackers tended to self-burst against it quite often (Valtyrek in particular, but this is likely because it has more rotational recoil than V2 thanks to its more burst-oriented design), and in this battle it has a chance of bursting Deathscyther as well.
What prompted me to try the Layer originally was Leo Burst's battles with it [1] [2] [3] [4], as well as JoJo's use of Gigant Gaia Gravity Bite during one of the LA tournaments.
