Best Gru Kang Build in Metal Slug: Awakening (Weapon, Accessory, Core Sets)

Getting the best performance with Gru Kang requires using the right built, espcially accessory and core sets in Metal Slug Awakening. This is also for the team setups that make sense since there are some cross-synergies to mind.

Before we start, please also see here how Gru Kang performs in general among all characters in Metal Slug Awakening:

Gru Kang

A+

Here is a quick overview of the rankings of Gru Kang. Please refer to the full tier list linked below to see the ranking of all characters, including possible team setups..

Full Tier List

Also important! You absolutely need to build a team that makes sense, just a character thrown together with randomly chosen other characters will not work in the long run! Please refer to our team building guide here for more info. Also, the recommendations you see in the game are quite outdated and I am sure they have been written in the beta so there are better builds available that we have here.

Best Weapons for Gru Kang

As weapon type we recommend to use Ignite. since Gru is more of a character to throw in, deal his specials and leave his ultimate on and ignite as many enemies as possible befire your main damage dealer comes in.

Best Accessory for Gru Kang

In terms of accessory please focus on the hero-specific ones, you can get them from the Medal Store easily and they outclass the general ones by far. When it comes to pick between the hero-specific ones, here’s how they performed in our tests:

King of Boxing

Defense Punch

Best Core Sets for Gru Kang

But getting the cores to make that can be quite a while so we also wanted to give you our full test results with the other sets so you can pick the setup that works best FOR YOU right now:
