Folder Decoder 12: BN5 Gyro Storm (Tornado Folder)

[@kiranysauros7211]

Mmbn5 just goes so hard.

[@Gnurklesquimp2]

I love that the tornado can absorb certain panels, one of my favorite tropes for elemental systems. It doesn't take on that dmg type though, right? Would be super cool if they leaned into it like that if they were to ever bring back BN or something like it/Star Force.

I don’t think Tornado absorbs the damage type of the panel, but I’m not 100% certain on that

[@hiroran9796]

Tornado can consume ice, magnet and lava panels too. Though GBA BN5 have no * code for Lava seed so its not really ideal to use lava while magnet panels is magnetman only. I usually used L codes because tornado comes in code with area grab. So if I had to use search soul, i go for chips like life sync and copy damage just to thin the folder. Maybe it will be a good idea to decode folders that can act as crowd control too.

Well, i've just started playing BN5 Protoman, so, isn't this a convinient

[@ProtoDemnProductions]

Honestly best folders for BN5 are to just use S code throughout the game, it has some of the best chips and 3 good program advances, plus it has 3 Navis no matter which version you're playing! I do plan on making videos about S-code folders for BN5 at some point

@ProtoDemnProductions i know, but i love GyroMan in this game, and last time i had a lot of fun with the WindSoul propeller mechanic

[@Gnurklesquimp2]

@@ProtoDemnProductions Every time I played I sorta just stumbled into having a ton of good S chips alongside a few outside the code like Guardian, required me to farm to feel other codes competed.

@iankauer7725 Now I’m thinking of doing a Toad Soul folder, just to piss off the commenter that once called me stupid for saying Meddy soul is the worst one even though Toad Soul exists 👀

Wait, toad soul is bad? I can't wait to see a folder decoder for it.
