Analysis

Review

Gin is a Water Warrior who has a unique passive allowing him to basically get a free attack on anyone attacking him in melee range. On top of that, he can also counter Dodge - no other character in the game currently can do that. If you're loving to use Assassins, be wary of enemy Gin as he can ruin your day.

In PVE he is pretty solid as on top of dealing good damage, he can make enemies' lives miserable with his debuffs, but he's way below Charlotte. So if you're thinking about using Gin instead of her, sadly this won't work.

PVP is another thing. There, Gin is a pure monster, especially once you unlock both of his paths and rank him up. He can easily counter all Assassins and kill most melee characters that try to attack him. The Attack Range debuff is especially nasty there.

Pros & Cons
Pros

  • First Strike,

  • Range debuff,

  • Can counter Dodge.

Cons

  • His damage output is a bit meh, but that's because of all the utility he has in his kit,

  • He's more of a PVP character than PVE one,

  • You need to unlock both bottom and top path to use his to his full potential.
