I noticed High 6-B has yet to be taken, so I think it's finally time to throw Hecate into the ring

So, Hecate's High6-B key is her Ultimate Slimy Mech Mk. 2 with Mother Mode active. This opens up a bunch of abilities to her, so I'll summarize the most important ones here:

• Size and Elasticity: I guess the 'main gimmick' of the Slimy Mech both in Mk. 1 and 2 is the fact that it is pretty large, with Mk. 2 being increased from the first variation as the body of it is 35 meters tall and wide while the tentacles base length extends 50 meters beyond that, making it 85 meters on the sides. However, these tentacles are SUPER stretchy. In Mk. 2 they can stretch to 75 Kilometers out. Considering a lot of hecate's arsenal relies on cannons within these tentacles, the sheer amount of them and their ability to stretch makes it pretty dangerous.
• Starry Slimy System: Hecate's mech regeneration system is pretty powerful. It's strong even for the High-Mid regen it provides because it pushes it to the limit of what it can do. After the regenerative process (which is surprisingly quick for its size too), the Mech multiplies its own defenses to the point of the attack forcing her to regenerate doing negligible damage the next time.
• Energy Nullification barriers: Slimy Mk. 2 has a barrier that can be stacked on top of each other five times over that turns the power and effects of energy blasts, beams, etc into nothing upon hitting them by completely absorbing the power, making those who rely on attacks like that pretty much hopeless. This applies to heat-based stuff as well like Helios' blasts and durability negating blasts like from Suru. They can be destroyed by massive physical blows, but the recovery time for a single layer is very fast unless all five are destroyed which would extend it.
• Acrobatics: Hecate's mech is massive but capable of moving around and fighting so efficiently that a martial arts master like Akumo is impressed with it
• Auras: She is capable of stealing passive auras from enemies even if said auras are central to the opponent's programming, like with Neso's Super Suppression Field. She's only shown doing this to robotic-like enemies, but it's still of note. The aura she did steal gave her the permanent ability to activate the aura herself, said aura being able to passively drain all the stamina of those within 150 meters of the mech's main body.
• Instinct: Slimy Mk. 2 is able to split apart just before it is attacked (even by spams and/or danmaku) in a similar way as Monsoon from Metal Gear. This makes it even harder to hit her than it was already.
• Adaptation: Hecate's mech can adapt to planetary changes in gravity, whether, etc. and has a reactionary battle system that slowly raises her attack and speed in battle but also reacts differently when attacked and depending on the actions she takes.
• Durability Negation: Hecate can sprout swords that quantum decoherence in the things she slashes which basically causes them to fall apart regardless of how their cells/body are made up.
• Intelligence: Hecate is stupidly intelligent, having solved a nearly impossible cipher and speaking dozens of different languages (which she just picked up when she was really small on accident due to her intellect), made a machine which can convert trashy materials to good ones, is a faster thinker than a bunch of combined upgrades supercomputers (the highest grade of the WPA), has been said to have an immeasurable IQ and can process one sextillion future visions and came out of it with just a small headache which went away after a few moments. She isn't as battle-smart as Cobalt for instance, but her sheer thinking speed and knowledge of her mech makes her even more dangerous to fight anyway. She knows what her mechs do and how to utilize them properly. She's even been known to use every ability she has all at once after minimal thinking and she's super good at planning based on all available information (she has information analysis which helps her out too).

There's plenty more but I think this is enough for now since no one else is in that spot
