How the deck wins
This is the EN-pool version of Gigi Homing Riot, using only cards in the English card pool through Diva Fever (hBP07), including the start decks through hSD19. Compared with the JP list it drops the four 1st Gigi hBP08-089 for a 4th 1st hSD13-011, a 3rd and 4th 1st hSD13-012 and one 1st hSD13-010, swaps the hBP08 1st Flare for 1st Buzz Flare hBP03-079, and replaces the hY06-010 Yellow Cheer with a 13th hY06-001.
2nd Gigi hBP07-086's Homing Riot does 160, +30 if the target already has reduced HP. Its collab effect, Relentless Chaser, lets a Gigi you choose also target your opponent's back holomem with reduced HP this turn.
Gigi's SP, Free-Spirited Chaser (3 holo power, once a game), puts two 2nd Gigis from your deck onto your stage and sends 1 cheer from your archive to each of your holomem. The trained AI used it around its 4th turn in every test game.
The trained AI started from the JP Gigi Homing Riot AI and played 25,000 more games with this list. On the same deals it won 81.1% against the field, up from 76.4% for the JP AI piloting this list.

Key cards
2nd Gigi hBP07-086 (main attacker)
Homing Riot: 160 for yellow + yellow + colorless, +30 if the target is a holomem with reduced HP. Collab effect Relentless Chaser: choose 1 of your Gigi; this turn its Arts may also target your opponent's back holomem with reduced HP.
Your finisher. The trained AI deals far more damage with it than the general AI.
Gigi Murin (oshi)
Boat Goes Binted (1 power, [1/Turn]): swap your opponent's center and collab holomem. SP Free-Spirited Chaser (3 power, [1/Game]): place 2 2nd Gigi from your deck on stage, then send 1 cheer from your archive to each of your holomem.
Save 3 power and fire the SP around turn 4.
2nd Gigi hSD13-013
Shatter Riot: 90 for yellow + 3 colorless, +90 if no holomem are stacked under her. Gift Resurgent Strength ([1/Turn], main phase): archive 1 holomem stacked under one of your Gigi to send the top card of your cheer deck to this holomem.
Placed by the SP with nothing stacked under her, she hits for 180.
1st Gigi hSD13-011
Bloom effect I am Gonathan G.: you may archive 1 Debut stacked under this holomem to deal 20 special damage to your opponent's collab holomem. Arts 40, +20 with nothing stacked under her.
Bloom it to put damage on a target for Homing Riot's +30.
Debut Gigi hSD13-009
Collab effect: if you went second and it is your first turn, place 1 1st #Justice holomem from your deck on stage.
Your turn-1 collab when going second.
Debut Gigi hSD13-008
Collab effect: send 1 cheer from your archive to one of your #Justice holomem. You may include any number of copies in your deck.
A collab every turn that recycles cheers.
Popo
The holomem gets +20 HP. On a Gigi with no holomem stacked under her, Arts+20. Only 1 mascot per holomem.
Free extra damage on the SP-placed 2nds.
Stellar
Deal 20 special damage to 1 of your opponent's back holomem other than Debut. Once per turn.
Damages a back holomem so Relentless Chaser can reach it.
Relentless Chaser only lets a Gigi target back holomem that already have reduced HP, and only during the turn you collab. 1st Flare hBP03-079 is a Buzz holomem: if it is downed you lose 2 life. holoAN, Harusaki Nodoka, So, That Makes You My Enemy and Borderline Evil Robot are LIMITED, so only one of them a turn. Stellar can only hit a back holomem other than Debut, and only once per turn. Explosion Magic's knockout does not take a life.
Game plan
Turns 1–2
Early game
Set up Gigi Debuts and a 1st.
Play Normal PC, holoAN and Harusaki Nodoka to fill the stage and your hand.
Collab debut hSD13-009 on your first turn when going second to place a 1st Gigi.
Collab debut hSD13-008 on later turns to recycle cheers from the archive.
Turns 3–4
Mid game
Bloom 2nds and fire the SP.
Bloom a 2nd Gigi around turn 3.
Keep 3 holo power and use Free-Spirited Chaser around turn 4 for two more 2nds and a cheer on every holomem.
Treat Cecilia and the two Flares (Debut hSD09-007 and 1st hBP03-079) as support; the trained AI almost never attacks with them.
Turn 5 on
Late game
Chase damaged holomem.
Attack with hBP07-086 for 190 against a target with reduced HP.
Use 1st hSD13-011 or Explosion Magic to damage the center or collab, and Stellar to damage a back holomem (not a Debut) that Relentless Chaser can then reach.
Use Boat Goes Binted only when the swap sets up a knockout.
What the trained AI does
In 60 test games the trained AI won 92%, against 57% for the general AI playing the same deck. It finished games in about 8 of its own turns.

Practice it
In Match Lab's Player vs Bot, play against the Gigi Homing Riot (EN pool) Specialist AI first and watch how it sets up.
Then pilot the deck yourself: collab with a debut Gigi every turn, save 3 holo power for the SP, and attack with 2nd hBP07-086.
Aim to win in about 8 of your own turns, like the trained AI does.
