Okay, this is a bit better. I assume this is meant to be one of the main aces for the Shinken Hissatsu deck, anyway. So, when his own SH is online during your turn, your fellow Shinken Hissatsu units gain 2k. And he also gains 5k when you Drive Check a G1 or above with the Shinken Hissatsu ability.
 
Extra power during attack is slightly redundant at this point I feel, so it's the first skill you want, granting 4k each to your columns on the left and right, and making his own column bigger by 2k. Hardly a Jingle Flower Dragon or Altmile but extra 5k guard with 17k+ columns is solid enough. Unfortunately, it's because Blue Sky Knight Altmile and his ilk exist that I can't really say I like him: again, his Shinken Hissatsu and his synergy with the rest of the support is the only thing keeping him upright. Which isn't much, unfortunately.
 
At least he's capable of doing something a bit more useful in the instances you don't Stride.

...How the hell do you pronounce that name?!  Anyway, Ugu here also has the LB3 ability, each LB3 rear guard gets +2000 and if you drive check a grade 1 or greater unit with the LB3 ability, it gets +5000 until end of battle, effectively making drive checks become trigger checks all the time.
 
Okay, a little weird, but that's seriously pretty good, IMO.  Swings for decent numbers, I assume that there's at least one 7K booster that has the LB3 ability, so that would mean it swings for 20K, possibly up to 30K each swing?
 
Yeah, seems decent to me at least.  A bit less powerful than Ichigo was, but it boosts rear guards, so, it has that going for it, which is nice.
