Who's the BEST Operator? [Arknights] 

It's me.

Before I watch the video, I bet the best operator is gonna be Gummy.

No argument, the best operator is Dylan the pilot. The man that is responsible for dropping off our favorite operators into battle. Weren't for him around, how would we get our farming materials with no ops deployed?

I think this video really showcases the different ways an operator can be broken. As much as we can agree that they're the top league, actually deciding if utility is better than UNGA BUNGA DAMAGE is up to personal preference which is why I believe Glaucus's ability to bind everything in range makes her the premier blue woman and you can convince me otherwise

By the time Kalt finishes her monologue everyone just dies of boredom. XD Also Gummy is the best operator in your heart.

Myrtle. 90% of all the high end strategies in the game are only possible because she exists. She literally broke the games basic resource system over her knee and ran off giggling, but she's too cute for anyone to get mad at her for it.

Supah failed to mention that gummy is the only one that can serve a full course meal after the battle is over before night time duties.

the fact chalter didn't require too much investment to be efficient, made her the most broken out of the bunch. you also need to remember the Spreadshooter subclass traits is very strong too!

Would also like to add Skalter on the list, the most based bard unit in Arknights, esp for an average player All her skills are basically: Heal + 50% DMG mitigaion > perma DEF and ATK buff > ATK megabuff, so you can pick and choose what role she will play With her S2 you get a boost on any stage of the game, as it helps your 4* deck to reach certain breakpoints, increase DPS of ranged units and DEF of ground units - while giving passive heal (basically deleting existence of chip damage), increase healing potential of other medics and if you're at the endgame, further buff your already strong 6* Personally can't tell you enough how many times she helped me as a new player, lacking in nukers and solid DPS operators which is why she's always on my support list

I saw that ''without a question... Gummy.'' coming from a mile away.

Surtr is who you call when you need a guy killed. Chenalter is who you call when you need the entire room killed. Ling is who you call when you need the entire city killed. And you best best Bagpipe was helping get the DP for all three of the others~

Surtr just needs the ICU team though. Edit: I actually managed to get Bagpipe to max potential for some reason. I remember farming for red certs to get at least one potential.

One additional negative (and quite an important one) I don't think you mentioned (enough) about Ling's s3 is that she is quite the slow starter, even outside of cc with increased dp/redeploy time risks. Dp costs can indeed be solved with vanguards, but with a 20 sec redeploy of each smol dragon she's quite vulnerable to strong initial rushes and/or heavy hitters that can take out a smol dragon in the 20 secs you need before being able to chonkify it. Though there's also the small positive that they have 'a' form of hp regeneration, in that chonkifing them instantly gives them full hp again, no matter how low their hp was. Also the +100% for the chonker isn't based on the chonker stats themselves but on the smol version instead, so in her s3 the smol dragon does get double atk and def, but the chonker only gets about (100% of the smol dragon's stats≈) +65% of the chonker's stats.

Schwarz is the best, while yes the 4 operators mentioned are good I want to address my arguements again chalter. Her dp and sp cost are incredibly high while Schwarz has half of both and a fast redeploy sniper comparable to April. A lot of sniper only squads use Schwarz for her versatility as well as her support buff. One thing I know for certain is that if gummy was a sniper, it would essentially be the ling of snipers where every sniperknight record would be taken over by her.

Judging by pure power (not accounting for the cost), I'd argue that it's probably between Bagpipe and Ling. Ling because she's a literal powerhouse that can do whatever... Really well. It's really hard not to find a way to use Ling, something that can to some minor degree cripple Surtr and to an even more minor degree Chalter. And Bagpipe because she's the half of the single most reliable strategy of Arknights, the infamous Flagpipe combo. Really the only thing preventing me from giving it to Bagpipe is that she's only half of Flagpipe, the other half obviously being the most broken archetype of the game, Flagbearers.

I subbed and liked. The best operator is clearly Bagpipe. I mean, look at the size of that forehead. Clearly, nobody else matches Bagpipe in sheer girth and thickness

I realy liked this. Been playing for about a year, but the technical breakdown of operators, skills and talents are a huge boost.

The best Operator is Kal because she would go so in depth explaining how, no one would be left alive to argue. Operators aside, bullying that poor Paolumu with a Spread HBG is a war crime.

Pretty certain arknights uses seed based RNG, so the RNG ammo return of chen, and bagpipe crits, should only affect your inital stage clear, not the autodeploys,

As someone who has not played Arknights (but is considering, maybe), I see this as a good companion video to the What Makes a Bad Operator. Yeah, they are 6 months apart, but this one that came first does show (indirectly) what makes a good (or mostly broken, in these cases) unit in Arknights.

For Bagpipe, even without pot 5 she's still top tier imo.

You know? We never escaped the times of Pokémon red and blue. Since we have two good blue women and two good red women. Will we get two meta green women to complete the set ?

Pagpipe forced me to eat potatos. I did not eat anything but potatos for almost a year now. One time I tried to sneak out of the house to get some bread but she is faster... she shoved 4 potatos to my mouth just as panishment, I am scared The signs of potassium deficiency are clear and I dont know how much I will survive... please help me bagpipe holds me at sco- YOU CANT ESCAPE THE POTATO

i agree with all of these , really glad to see bagpipe as well . But i wonder if mudrock can be added here or not .

16:37 just casually flexing the fucking holy gift of prophecy

I can't wait for what will happen on this channel when Gummy alter is released

after getting Potpipe bag 5 I've almost never not had her in my squad. and also she's one of the 3 vanguards who are E2 90 for me (others being Siege and Saileach. yes I love my victorians) ;-;

The one operator I can safely bring to literally any stage ever is Thorn, if you can get his 2nd skill activation you're basically set for the rest of the stage even if you go braindead.

This video nicely shows that despite a lot of discussion and argument on operators that dominate the game, it is still PvE and can often be overcome with low build, niche, or borrowed support, as is done by the content creators of this game. These 4 units may trivialize the game, taking 20 minutes of Supah's life to talk about how they do it, but he still decides to bring his beloved Gmuuy to endgame content as he pleases, and this freedom to play the game makes me love it so much. This video hides great meaning behind insulting the balancing team's mistakes and I'd like to thank you for this realization, Supah. Can I lick Gummy's toes?

i need Gummy Sniper alter that throws frying pans and stuns enemies

honestly after getting bagpipe to E2 i have put her in my squad all the time and i dont even deploy her

I knew how the video will end and yet I still watched it. I regret nothing.

i've only seen like three of your videos so far but i knew exactly where this was going. based.

Imho i find chalter to be more reliable due to the sheer dmg + slow + defbreak + ammo. For laneholding and for dealing with damagereduction bosses kaltsit for sure, having a lingdragon that deals true damage is insane. For elite or general boss killing surtr wins the cake though. And ling is an operator that takes up too many deploy slots, sure she works well in alot of stages, but doesnt exactly work well in teams with alot of operators

Bagpipe enables faster start wich is already broken and she herself can solo a lane and now can make good amount of dp thanks to her new module she also casually has more dps than most physical units in the game (litterally higher dps than chenalter or silverash) with 5-3 sp helidrop Surtr is the og broken unit Casually has a revive and ignores one of the elements that is used to keep arts units in check so she legit doesnt care I honestly wonder what they were even thinking with her Chalter has multiplicative damage has extremely low sp cost has ammo mechanics has double hit can reduce defense and can reduce speed whilst dealing true aoe damage with range expanding She is so horribly and annoyingly broken that i sometimes wish there was a vote to remove her from the game Ling is a squad of her own lmao She herself has good arts dps Her summons casually has the highest stats in the entire game while having just 18 dp cost and extremely fast redeployment time Her dragons can full heal has aoe damage can switch between physical and arts and the skill just amplifies all of these to oblivion Did i mention you can place 4 of these as well? I legitimately have her in ALL of my squads and amount of lanes she solos amount of bosses she kills is just unmeasurable She is so easy to use and so strong that she legitimately makes your squad feel like its a 18 squad rather than 12 And also i would like to include Mlynar He is easily the strongest guard in the game Has multiplicative kit Has litterally 12 dp cost Has the highest physical dph in the game Can deal true damage (dealt and taken) Litterally minimal sp cost for what he does Can hit air despite not needing to Has 3 block and one of the highest hps for guards in the game

25:34 min video just to praise Gummy.... i loved it

I may agree that 5 stars are whatever they are but Shamare is getting chosen with that ticket and Indra gives hugs.

You have influenced me to upgrade Gummy and use her on a daily basis

First time I heard you laugh right there. Kinda caught me off guard

I whold loke to mention Guard Ch'En. Not only is she a pretty good Operator on her own, but, just by existing, she empowers an entire mechanic (sp on attack). So ye. Thas gotta count for something. I think...

My best operator would be GG. Although she need full pot to be actually godly. Also she's more rare than limited operator. As her banner never returns. Also you can remedy Chalter's RNG by using her gun without relying on extra ammo. i.e. shut down her skill at 2/3 ammo bar.

Wtf that shrouded hand mention suprised me

- 8 sec immortality - Emperor blade fart says hello

The best operator is clearly a young ursan girl who was traumatised in chernobog, thats right, abs-

I don't normally comment on the music in YT videos, but HOLY SHIT BLUE DRAGON OST LET'S FUCKING GOOOOO Seriously, I went from chilling and listening to your videos while I did paperwork to damn near falling out of my chair and tripping over my own feet to verify that yes, it WAS Blue Dragon music that I was hearing. Great video as always, but I'm mainly frothing at the mouth over having a crumb of my favorite niche JRPG jumpscare me on the funny Gummy dude's video

Of course the Robots, still stay unmatched to this day

alright how is this gonna dissolve into Gummy simping

There is someone stronger than those four that you mentioned and she can even compete with Gummy. I am talking about Andreana. Not only does she have a very wide range she also deals a lot of damage. With her S2M3 at E2Lv80 and module she can reach over 4 k attack. Deadeye Snipers do have a slow attack speed, but Andi has that talent that lets her attack faster. And now we come to the best part. She is part of the Abyssal Hunters they have the best synergy in the game. Skadi gives Andi more attack, Specter more Hp/sp regen and gladiia tops it off with passive healing and 30 goddamn percent damage reduction. So not only is Andi powerful af she also has a cheerleading squad behind her cheering her on. And for the best part: Have you seen her smile, her hair, her everything??? (she even has tentacles) truly the best operator in the game, unmatched, uncontested, the reigning champion!!!

I watched too much of your videos that l can predict Gummy being named the best miles away

Been trying to get bagpipe forever=( I like ling but, she's kinda niche outside CCC+her dying means your game is over xd Edit: never knew you would get a third big guy with lvl 3 module, im happy i watched this vid now lol

i got Bagpipe on a thorns banner awhile back, i was shocked but turns out she's actually op AF, she's never left the squad. So for me she's the absolute best!

LOOK MA IM IN A RU-vid VIDEO personally my choice for best operator in the game is probably surtr. shes just a magic wand you can point at things to make them die. shes the most braindead of these both as a unit and as a character; shes easier to use than ling and she has so much amnesia shes got too little personality for even skadi fans to twist into a harem waifu. yeah she doesn't work as well for everything (ItW, SN, unblockable enemies, etc) but there's nothing (except aerial units) that she cant do anything to. she works 70 percent of the time, all of the time and also I don't have chalter or bagpipe or

Best op Lancet-2 No more No less

1:49 Can't believe you did ELO dirty

Me: Does a stupid Italian accent. Supah:

Hearing you laugh was uncanny

So who is better? A Heated Redhead Stand User, Blue Woman But Wet And Not Blaze,The Chad Wife Potato Farmer or Blue Woman But Drunk Kaiba.

Another problem ling has is the deployment time between summons, in missions with lots of enemies can be a big problem since you can be swarned easily

I just skipped the entire video to the end portion to confirm that John Arknights is the best.

Bagpipe's utility really puts her up there but surtr insane damage just hits harder

Before watching : Best operator? That operator...I guess. After watching: I knew it.

I believe in 🍳 Thanks SUPAH

I knew for sure that the best operator is gummy...I smelled that before even watching

it's funny looking at this and i feel like 3/4 are not still in the running for the top anymore 1.3yrs later, haha

Gummy, we all know it's Gummy

Raiden killing lavasioth with nero padoru What a time to be alive

Actually, for me, the best operator must be versatile, so, I think that maybe Thorns, Kal'tsit or Penance deserves this title

The Yii roast🤣😂

I agree, Bagpipe’s skill 1 can be helidropped lol

you can get to max SSS level with Gummy clearly the best fucking unit

Gummy alter when 💀

Chalter's negative aren't really matter bc of her damage can deal , no needed for high aspd when she can kill boss within 5 shot average , the only weakness she has was high SP cost and high dp cost but once I reach end game , the only remain was sp cost

23:17 A true man of culture 😏👌 *wink* *wink*

Welp now we have Walter

New challenger approached *lore accurate Mlynar slashes patriot dummy target in half*

So glad i have all of them And by accident too

I think Bagpipe has dropped out of the running now, with the end of CC and with too many other units outperforming her in IS3 high ascension runs. Though it's hard to say for sure until whatever replaces CC comes out.

Point of video: Just surtr your enemies and gummy your allies

Nice

bro got Gummy Alter before it even released

Elysium is the best. 🙂

...I don't have sibling, yeah! so my parents have to love me

Thx for including the Scottish potato farmer (can't wait for committing warcrime and gain some PTSD across Terra), and yeah her skin is suckass, i really hoping some bloodline combat or raythean skin for her

man i hate it when my attacks bounce off that damn fish. i always bring my trusty gunlance against it

as myself who have Just Surtr it ,Chalter ,Victoria no Bagpipe and Ling i did in fact made AK into a complete joke because of the Big 3

grumbummy

The best op is just tachanka and only tachanka cause he beat the living crap out of anyone who touches gummy that isnt supah -hotfire-

5:12 does anyone have the updated rating for AK after the Exu Skin fiasco

If you don't say gummy is best operator in this video, I will M6 max level gummy in my account

The objective truth based on my subjective opinion is that Earthspirit is the best unit in the game, and I will not elaborate further on that. Thank you for coming to my TEDtalk, next time we'll be talking about the health benefits of eating sand.

Watching this while eating 80% ramen😊

2:15 youre going to say gummy arent you 💀

I think it's Bagpipe.

Best operator is Goldenglow, I love her and that is what really matter (?

Bagpipe, IMO best unit, Support, Helidrop but not waste DP when retreated , can be Boss Killer, can AFK strat ,2 DP regen each kill.

its literraly me with gummy
