For some fun debate, how would Shining/Burning Gundam work in GBO2?

[Tazuto]

Personally i imagine its a slightly smaller sized frame, what cost im unsure but around the 600-700 range. itll of course be mainly melee with punching and beam saber and a vulcan, could give it a overboost mode (like how transam works) to have it power up speeding up its attacks and give it a special counter tackle to the shining/burning finger attack on the enemy breaking their head part or at least dealing a ton of damage.

any additional ideas or modifications for that?

i think shining and burning is 2 different gundam, but any G-gundam should have hyper mode, 2 melee heavy attack turning into sekiha tenkyouken and other into charged spiral from burning finger

I mean, Shining is a legitimate unit. It has all the armaments you'd expect of a Gundam unit.

A pair of head vulcans, a pair machine cannons on the collar, beam guns on the forearms, smoke grenade, double beam saber. So I'd expect it to play in the same tier as Dolmel and have the same gimmicks but instead of shoulder tackle, it's a rising kick or martial arts or a sliding something.

It would actually probably fit in. Maybe even a reskin combo of the hobby-zack and a Dolmel?

As for the Burning Gundam? Too dependent on gimmick moves but if they keep it severely toned down (no screen wipes?) probably just a mode and some changes to charge attacks. And it's got like 3 of 'em for lolz y not.

Pretty much would handle like the Schuzrum-Gallus. Maybe a charged heavy attack and a close range instant stagger. Honestly it would probably feel like a EZZ with less maneuver armor and more speed.

i just imagine its boost animation is just it running faster lol

but worse, with some Unicorn-ish awaking gimmick as Hyper Mode and punching every opponent only to knock down in few hits

It's been ages since I watched G, but any suit like that, and by THAT I mean hyper focused on melee, I don't really know how to make work. The game requires a primary weapon slot. If it can fill that slot, them I guess it's a really high cost Gyan. It does an obscene amount of damage with janky poor range melee attacks... And basically nothing else.
