Review

Joo Shiyoon - one of the three protagonists of Counter Side - is famous for his counterattack ability that proved to be so strong, it had to be nerfed. Twice. When the game was first launched, not only he could counter all ship skills, but also Awakened Employees' skills. The ability to do that made him a meta pick in PVP, but sadly he got hit by a nerf bat.

Nowadays he is rarely used in PVP due to it being Awakened employee fiesta, but in PVE he still has places where he shines. For example, he's a staple in normal Raid and his counter will help your squishy team members survive - until his Awakened counterpart comes around at least. He is also great in Shadow Palace and basically mandatory to use on three bosses in Danger Close (Sollicitatio, Tyrant Sword, and Bishop).

Pros & Cons
Pros

- counterattack!

- can cheese some PVE stages/bosses like Shadow Palace and Danger Close.

Cons

- can't counterattack Awakened employees which makes him bad in PVP in the current meta.
