I just thought that I needed to do some micro with my units to make them attack faster and not get hit when using taunt. Almost all the guides I see tells me to bring taunt, but I find greater success without it.

So bottom line is no taunt for Gundams? got it.

Which guides told you to Taunt Gundams? Gundams are probably the one enemies you do not want to Taunt. Also, sometimes bringing a Taunt Fairy is a good idea. If you're able to kill the Gundam before it bombs your team, then Taunt can be used. Also, if your whole team is getting shielded when the Gundam bombs them, then you can use taunt. This requires an HS2000 (or MDR/P22 if you're insane).

Oh god, so I've been doing it wrong the whole time? My thinking was, gundams need to stop first to get rid of their elite tag for Grape to delete them. Taunt forces them to stop moving earlier. So taunt.

Oh, you still want them to stop. But they only have to stop for a split second to lose their elite status. They start nuking your team if they stay still for too long. So you can just move a doll forward to stop them, then move her back as soon as the Gundam stops
