Personally, I think he's pretty neat, although he isn't particularly good. Ld rush units are always pretty cool, the other main examples of this type of unit are dart/darkt and saber, all of which are S tier. Ganglion ofc isn't near as good, but he still has some solid uses.

Ganglion has very nice survivability and good enough dps in niche, with very high dph against niche as well. Biggest downsides are his long attack animation and short standing range. Animation hurts his ability as a rush unit quite a lot, since it's not uncommon for him to be kbed and have to restart his attack. Standing range prevents him from working as a generalist or outranging important aliens. He's pretty lacking in generalist use.

Although ld is generally bad for zombies, it does work in ganglions favor for one enemy, zamelle. Ganglion is probably the best anti-zammele unit in the game, it's like he was built to shred that one enemy lol. I'd even consider bringing him to gs since he can carry zombie and help on alien.
