## *Creator's Own Thoughts*

Second Unit from a custom batch of mine: ***Chased Outsiders.***

Although in the actual game we had already received Laberd as out latest Dark mitigator, Giovanni comes to be another one. However, he's more focused on debuff and extra damage negation. Because of this, he becomes the requirement of Rafaella's Extra Skill to actually work (she's another Custom Unit). However, as nothing is a sea of roses, Giovanni isn't perfect because his problem is the actual inverse of his sister's: he can't deal enough damage. For a 7-Star Unit, his modifiers are low and his own stats doesn't help much either. Of course, he's not designed for doing damage, but if you would wish to pack a punch with him, Avant, Ultor and the offensive booster types to help him with damaging.

2 out of 6 done. 4 remain and I'll be posting them shortly. In the meanwhile, feel free to comment and speak your thoughts about him.

***This is all for now, everyone. Agni Blackheart... out!***
