Yea this is especially true in UC where a Gundam isn't some overwhelmingly powerful god machine (most of the time, looking at you Unicorn). Gundams were mostly high performance prototypes or shock weapons. 2 more that weren't mentioned on this list was the RX-78-6 Mudrock which got taken out by a special forces team with at most Doms, so same thing that took out Amuro's G3 in this list and Johnny Ridden taking out a Full Armor Gundam in a Zaku II R2. Grunt suits are actually pretty dangerous in UC

Jetfire48 it is bullshit magic. The same way that the warp and psyker powers are bullshit magic in 40k. Pseudo science doesn’t make magic powers any less bullshit. And funny how psychic powers replace magic in science fiction from high fantasy. In Warhammer they have magic in 40k they have bullshit magic that manifests from feelings called the warp and they have mages in the form of psychics called psykers. A force sensitive from Star Wars is basically a better new type. Fast reflexes that actually come from sensing the future etc like how Anakin can pod race.

Where Yuji was able to take down a pixie Gundam using his beaten, one-armed GM striker in a boxing match (even after the fact pixie had destroyed 7 other mobile suits (who’d teamed up on him all at once) trying to pursue him.)

I gotta give a shout out to Graham Aker piloting the Flag in Gundam 00. First he forces the Throne Gundam to a humiliating retreat. Then he trashes Setsuna’s Exia. Sure he caught Setsuna at the end of an intense battle, but I was always very impressed with his abilities. A great pilot who pushed his “Grunt” unit to its absolute max performance 💯

[@n00d13sandr1c3]

The Flag he piloted at the very end of S1 had a GN Drive Tau, so it was much closer to the gundams technologically speaking. Plus he jumped Setsuna while the Exia had almost no weapons or GN particles remaining. So I wouldn't give him a lot of points for that, especially since he only managed a draw even under those circumstances.

For all it's gundams being super-durable, Wing Gundam has a couple examples to various extents. Sandrock was used as a decoy and destroyed in combat with Oz, Wing was taken out by Virgos, and Deathscythe was defeated by Tauruses. Their hulks tended to be rebuilt, but they were taken down.

The list in the vid all showed Gundams dying by not just being outperformed by mp machines. Each situation had circumstances and consequences that unfortunately lead to the defeat when they clearly had superior advantage. With IBO, Mika and Aki both lead hard lives, accomplished a lot together, and suffered their own struggles as part of a family. In the end, despite all their power and dedication, none of it mattered, and they died in the service to what was left of what they held dear. Out of any Gundam death, theirs seemed the most fair to go out on. Also, fuck Iok. He got what he deserved

I don't think any ELS count, since they don't even fit existing classifications for a lifeform, let alone have any concept of "grunts." or mass production And the Exia Repair had only one arm and half a sword against 3 nearly-equal mobile suits. Even though Aheads were technically grunts, the Exia at the time was outdated on top of being crippled. GN-X are a grey area as they're technically mass-produced, but there were only 30 of them and given to exceptional pilots with the specific purpose of overwhelming the Gundams. Long-range artillery isn't a "grunt" even if Grazes are the ones technically carrying the weapons, just as artillery units aren't considered infantry. And a battleship obviously isn't either.
