An advertisement drone commissioned by Ellen Select Technology Co. as part of their sponsorship deals with the Kazimierz General Chamber of Commerce, Cheering Sponsor Drones continuously broadcasts various K.G.C.C.-sanctioned ads as they loiter around the Kazimierz Major arenas that is very annoying to watch/listen, so try to get rid of them ASAP, as in the event a Cheering Sponsor Drone is shot down, all friendly units will have their ASPD and DEF increased by 100 and 50%, respectively, for 20 seconds; the buff's duration stacks additively if multiple Cheering Sponsor Drones are destroyed in a quick succession, but the effects do not. However, it is best to leave Cheering Sponsor Drones alone and bear with their bothersome ads for a while, and shoot them down when their ASPD and DEF buff is needed, such as when strong enemies joined the party.

As with Sponsor Drones, Cheering Sponsor Drones will never go for the Protection Objectives, but leave the map and despawn without reducing the player's Life Points, and are not included to the enemy counter.
