For a time, once of the most dominant decks in Folrart was BKR (Beast King Rivera). But with the entry of Brave Hero Dilate, it seems that many Gowen players have removed BKR from their decks in preference of Dilate. Perhaps BER (Beast Emperor Rivera) will bring back the popularity of BKR decks. Check her out.
Rivera is faster now with 4 AGI, tougher with 70 HP, and stronger with 60 ATK, albeit at a higher SP cost since she is now a level 6 unit. But achieving a Gowen level of 6 should be easy if you use Winston before her. BKR and Winston can start off early, while BER ends up as one of your end game units.
As an end game unit, you will rarely be able to take advantage of her Counter Skill if your field has been well developed. She will probably have two to three friendly units with you by that time. But if ever she's alone, you can even trigger this skill with a rightly timed salamander to engage a potential enemy threat.
Her Action Skill, Scarrion's Memory, is a great waiting move, and should stack with the ATK bonus already given by BKR's auto skill. And if BKR happens to be alive by the time you put BER on the field, that's a possible 15 permanent ATK buff per turn for all friendly units.
Finally, her other Action Skill, Sword of Orthos is great for bypassing DEF and for dealing with cemetery recycling decks like undeads, Ascarat, Skeleton Master, and True Emperor Retear. It even engages the enemy unit it hits, which more than compensates for the weak Counter Skill.
Overall, a great addition to Mid Level Gowen decks. Perhaps BKR decks will now be renamed BER.
