>Razzo losing on Slayer>Switches to LeoThis says a lot about society.
breadly sin
buff millia
I'm running out...i'll never have a main...
>>506983604The Baiken was inspirational though, literally never changing characters as razzo swapped through the entire top tier
They need to give Asuka some kind of counterplay to characters who are good at destroying cubes. Matchups like Axl are miserable with him.
>>506983861You guys said Baiken was top tier and for scrubs though.
>>506983801>hasnt tried ky or mayAre you retarded?
>>506983971The only ones saying that were mad she didn't get censored because tits frighten them
>>506984207ky looks boring and i'm not a pedophile
have a very abbers christmas everyone, and remember to change & sway your way to those new years resolutions !
>>506985085I am sad nobody draws aba with red hair now. I know she has the color but nobody draws it. That and the goo are the only problems.
>>506984492ky looks like a cutie patootie and i'm not a pedophile
Why does Pochumkin get so many more moves than everyone else
>>506985403I agree that her old design was definitely better. The new one has definitely grown on me quite a bit, particularly because the turquoise reminds me of the color they would paint walls in Soviet hospitalsI don't mind the goo too much, although I would have liked it if the evil as frick goat head came back in some capacity. Maybe during the super. idk.
>>506986327Yeah I wouldn't mind the goo as much if it wasn't a complete replacement of the goat head
>Feel normal>Open Strive training mode>I can now barely keep my eyes open and am ready for bedI need to unironically do this just to go to help me sleep at this point
>>506983604Razzo's performance over the lifetime of Strive has been a good reminder that winning in this game comes down to your choice at the character select screen, and most of the "best" players are bums when they can't play with broken characters.
Is it really an install if it lasts like 4 seconds
>>506984492maybe bridgets more your speed
>All my mods are installed>But the mods folder isn't in the steamapps paksthis is getting really fucking annoying
>>506983885>teleports behind you>instant guard crush thats the size of your entire character model
Asuka dhould have all his spells available at all times tied to different inputs
>>506989263That's boring.
>>506989667You're boring
>>506989263restriction inspires creativity. aren't you creative?
guys i really fucking hate fighting games
TyrannoArriba
>>506992074Play W/Jrpgs instead bro.
Unironically, what possible fucking reasoning could there be to make you open the pause menu and have to choose your shit on a seperate menu instead of just doing it when you load into the fight like literally every single other fighting game
>Can't stick to one character>Going back to any character after trying another feels impossibly awkward and get mad that Im losing to basic shit
I'm just not gonna think about Guilty Gear anymoreIm gonna get rid of the music, Im gonna uninstall the game, Im gonna stop posting here. Im just gonna stop thinking about it altogether and get it out of my life. I don't enjoy Guilty Gear Strive. I've wasted too much fucking time trying to.
kinda glad strive is killing itself.i won't need any willpower to protest lucy lol
Is Potemkin actually top 10 now?
>>506995092He has been since WWA came out brother
>>506995212I'm pretty sure the only time Potemkin has been top 10 was in the beta where he was clearly over tuned. And possibly now because Arcsys has no idea how to balance a fighting game.
>>506995092Yes. And when the patch comes out he'll probably be a contender for top 5.
>>506995349No, Pot has been top 10 since WWA came out, or at the very least since it got buffed
why doesn't millia's backdash have invul frames?
>>506995537It has 4.
>>506995537It has 5
>>506995464Are you saying hes top 10 now without karas coming back? Because not a single pros tier list has him top 10. Pretty sure even Leffen who is a well known Potemkin hater didn't put him top 10.
>>506995464>>506995471Show me a single pro tier list with him top 10. Should be easy since hes been so hated since he got WWA
there's literally no reason for millia to have the slowest dash startup acceleration in the game
>>506996120She's old and fat
what if millia had an actually useful 2s? LOL just imagine
what if millia had an actually functional womb? LOL just imagine
who should i play if i'm just a little guy?
>>506995631>my le heckin youtuber """""pro""""" said otherwise!!!!!!you are shit at the game
>>506998872So pros that have gotten multiple top 8s or even won major tournaments, these opinions don't mean anything yet, you, some nobody on a mongolian basket weaving forum that has nothing to show for in this game despite your hundreds of hours, your opinion holds weight instead?
>>507000114>So pros that have gotten multiple top 8s or even won major tournaments, these opinions don't mean anything yetYesName a single pro that actually expresses reasonable, accurate, well-thought out opinions on the game that actually turn out to be true or reflect the real state of the meta.You can't do it, they're all reactionary idiots who just happen to be good at the game and have youtube channels
can a nigga get some light
>>507000335Of the 20-30 best players in the world, not a single one of them have a reasonable opinion in this regard? Really? But you, someone who at best is in celestial and very likely can't even get any color aura, your opinion trumps theirs? All I asked for was a single pro of the 30+ having Potemkin in top 10 of their tier list since WWA came out but your cope is "uhh they are stupid and can't be trusted but me who couldn't get even 1 game against them in a FT10, I'm smarter and am correct here".
>>507000737>using aura to show skilllmaobait post
>>507000737Nta but there is no western strive pro worthy of respect, barely acknowledgement.
>>507000737Bro couldn't name one pro with good takes so he wrote all this
>>507000737>implying any of these "best players in the world" have any knowledge of the game outside of just picking top tiers and flowchartingwatch any of their tierlist videos and listen to how little they actually know about each character aside from the top meta picks of the patch
>>507000896>>507001140>no argumentI accept your concession. Also Potemkin being a grappler has people hating him for that alone which could cloud someones judgement to upplay him. Even with this I have never seen him top 10 in a tier list since WWA came out. You'd think someone like Leffen who really hates Potemkin and WWA would put him top 10 but he didn't. Same with every other pro. But again you aren't even good enough to get an aura so your opinion is worth even less than any pro. >>507001067Japanese pros release tier lists too and I never so one of them put Potemkin in top 10. >>507001203>>507001203Occam's razor has me siding with people that have won major tournaments, not nobodies on this cesspool site who at best are low mmr celestial players.
>>507001304shit bait
>>507001203I unironically stopped watching strive tier lists so fucking fast because after the S tier they just drop everyone in A saying "They have some stuff, but they're just like, bad", putting the bottom 3 in D tier then the funne zato tier hahaEvery single time
>I'm a low mmr celestial player and my opinion holds more weight than evo winners!
>>507001440literally this
>>507001517And then they go around and say the game is horrifically unbalanced for months on end, after saying 90% of the characters are good enough to win events when asked to rank how strong each character is
How mad are people that Potemkin is probably a top 5 character?
>>507000737Pros make more money on content creation than attending tournaments or coaching. They are encouraged to lie to you for publicity and for financial gain. So no, I don't think they'd express a 'reasonable opinion'.
umisho agrees
>>506508078lobby's closed.And in bed.Sleeping.May you all dream and sick conversions and big damage.
>>507001690Grapplers should unironically never be top tier because the way they force the game to revolve entirely around them, whether it's slowing the game to a crawl as you have to have to play run-away-forever-or-die or turning matches into 10 second jokes where you hear BUSTERRRRR 2 times in 10 seconds and the round is overGrapplers are only fun to watch when they're underdogs. If you're not rooting for the grappler, you're not going to excuse their retarded 2 touch bullshit.
>>507001770Plenty of pros have little to no youtube/streaming presence but will still drop a tier list. This is even more true for Japanese pros. Also what is the financial gain of lying and saying Potemkin isn't top tier? If anything the opposite might have the potential of financial gain since people want to watch your content when you're saying that Potemkin is a degenerate top 10 character because of WWA. Your logic makes no sense.
>>507001770>pros lying and saying potemkin isn't top tier even with WWA makes me want to watch their content nowDid you think this through for even a second?
>>507002278>whats the financial gain of lying>dont lie>lose credibility because it doesnt match every other tier list>lose moneypeople who watch """pros""" on youtube are mindless sheep looking for either the next broken character or an excuse to say their character is shit instead of thinking for themselves for a single moment
>>507002540>>507002507Apply this directly to my post. I really want to see the mental gymnastics.
>>507002641can you send the tierlists of these pros so i can see them? the ones with no presence
I reached floor 9. My bedman brain is expanding.
>>507002709>Youtube title: "Broken TOP TIER Potemkin with WWA destroys everyone!"If content creators wanted to maximize financial gains this is the kind of content you'd expect to seem, complaining about broken top tier WWA Potemkin. It stands to reason that lying to upplay Potemkin is a good financial idea yet this didn't happen. Lying and claiming Potemkin is only mid tier or low tier or whatever makes 0 sense for financial gain.
>>507003159so can you send these supposed tierlists that people drop with no presence
Daisuke won't put Order Sol in Strive because he knows I'd be too strong with him.
>boot up Strive >last time I played was around EVO>pick Sol>Volcanic Viper range nerf>Can't RC Medium DP >any K combos is weird now because it's slower>"Hm... I guess they made Rush character weaker?">read past threads : Johnny is apparently top tier?>Didn't encounter a single DizzyIs Dizzy trash? I don't even see simps playing her in tower. I thought this season was zoner slop.
>>507003223>no argumentI accept your concession. I have no idea why you'd make the insane claim that lying to make Potemkin mid tier or lower was good for business. Also the idea that having a youtube presence completely taints your opinions is nonsense and I've proven this. If content creators wanted to be disingenuous to maximize profits they would make content like this >>507003159
>>507003857>makes point>doesnt back it up>is asked to back it up>ignore ityeah ok man
tiers don't exist retardsbetter player wins, simple as
>>507003956I'll ask you again. Explain the logic of a youtuber lying and saying Potemkin with WWA is only mid tier? Or lower than mid tier. When on the flip side making click bait videos saying hes a broken top tier would easily get more clicks.
>>507004081bait
>>507004113>b-b-bait
>>507003956The fact that Leffen didn't put Potemkin in top 10 when WWA is all the proof you need that he wasn't top 10. On stream or in youtube videos he stands to gain financially by making click bait videos titled "WWA POTEMKIN BREAKS THE META" or some nonsense like this.
>>507004113>>507003956>>507003223Here you go. These 2 don't even have youtube channels yet both of them put Potemkin low tier in season 3 when WA came out. By your logic if they did have youtube channels they could have "lied" and said "Potemkin is mid or low tier" and this is somehow good for business.
>>507005267The history revisionism is crazy. With season 3 came WA and Potemkin got WWA and just about every single tier list had him bottom 5 yet people here that are at best low MMR celestial players actually thought he was top 10?
>win my celestial challenge against someone>they stopped moving after i beat them on the 2nd round>kill them for free on the 3rd>congratulations you won the celestial challenge>check puddle.farm>it says i lost against themit's safe to say this website is worthless
>people are still talking about tiersyou retarded niggers, you suck at the game, you are dogshit, that's why you lost, not because _____ is higher tier than your main
>>507006123Even if thats true upplaying and downplaying should be called out. These aren't mutually exclusive.
>>507005918never noticed this with rating update
>>507005918desync moment
>>507005267oscarbros... we fell off...
Potemkin was bottom 5 throughout most of Strives history and even then people generally didn't like playing against him. Now he might even top 5? What a time to a be a grapplerCHAD
>>507008710Potemkin was always mid tier at worst
Does how minus on block a jump cancelable normal is matter?
>>507010893It doesn't matter if you're jump cancelling it but there's utility in being able to be plus without cancelling a move too.
>>507005918Yeah you desynchronized. They probably stopped moving because they beat you on their screen and the game stopped sending inputs
Get Over Nightmares releasing alongside Radiant Dawn was the ultimate mogging.
Any schizocore characters?
So patch 4.0 will go down as the worst patch in history?
>actually fucking upplaying S3 Pot because muh +ob WWAlmao he is so much better with BWA its not even funny. nigga did not even have light confirms midway and only got 5H HKD at the tail end
>>507000737for the love of god anon we're talking about a scene where pro players put zato, at the PEAK OF HIS POWER, in low tier we're talking about a scene where pro players put happy chaos AT THE PEAK OF HIS POWER in mid tier. we're talking about a scene where they STILL can't fucking admit how strong slayer is. we're talking about a scene where they treat hc like he's fucking dead because you can't auto-win every single round by just spamming clone anymore. we're talking about a scene where there's literally ONE PERSON ON EARTH who plays may and gets good results with her yet she's "undeniably top 5 and easy and totally the best character ever guys the only reason i don't play her is because uhhhh i hate money and i hate winning." the people who play and talk about this game are utter fuckin retards. objectively.
>>507024810for fucks sake, the PREMIER HC PLAYER that won evo (to literally the most dead, disappointed crowd i've ever seen in any fg period) is so histrionically mindbroken by his character being "dead" (read: barely changed in 99% of ways and buffed in others) that he literally dropped the game completely to play something else. THESE ARE THE PLAYERS YOU WANT US TO LISTEN TO. no. i don't care if they technically have greater achievements. they're fucking morons.
Venom teaser on sunday or are they gonna wait until cygames cup? The patch being on monday seems sus
>>507024810>>507025068>at the PEAK OF HIS POWER, in low tier sauce? I do not remember propagandists like Tene and Leffen putting him lower than upper mid tier in S2. >HC called mid tier after the concentration nerf but players like Tiger backpedaled on it and Leffen just calls him barely top 10 iirc and nowadays just bitches that HC should stay good because he takes more skill etc>dropped the game in S4he is basically already qualified for AWT with the amount of points he has
Not too fond of Potemkin lads
>>507030430I blocked it
fondling Potemkin
>>507024810>we're talking about a scene where they STILL can't fucking admit how strong slayer islmao bro's mad they're only putting him in A instead of S+ cause he can't react to Master's Hammer
>get greedy>get dragon installed by sol>lose 60% HPI haven't played in quite a while was it always this strong?
The counter to Slayer is mashing on defenseIf you can't do that then you're a heartlet and I simply can't feel bad for you

I mean literally Potcucks cried on twitter like bitches since launch and now they have a character with a kara armored command grab that removes 50% on anyone. Downplaying used to be a fgc meme, now it's the fgc meta.
>>507048865>Zando won the last super major playing Asuka>Still puts Asuka bottom 5UFA was not on the S4 patch?
>>507048865>season 3 and WA comes out>pros put potemkin bottom 5>many non pros do too>basically never top 8s a single decently sized tournament let alone wins one>some ignorant pro who is known for downplaying downplays asuka which now means not a single pro is trust worthy>instead some low mmr celestial players on a mongolian basketweaving forum are trustworthy with the absurd claim that potemkin was top 5 when season 3 startedIf you youtube season 3 strive tier list basically every single one has Potemkin low tier. Apparently not a single one got this correct but your opinion is the correct one? But lets be real here, its not about all this, you're just extremely upset that Potemkin now is the best hes ever been since beta and is likely top 5, thats what this is all about.>agenda that could favorite them earning more moneyWhat is the benefit of pros "lying" and saying Potemkin is low tier when season 3 came out? Wouldn't it make more sense to upplay him and complain about him so hes seen as good so he doesn't get buffed? Your logic is extremely flawed.
>>507005267tempest streamed until he got kicked out of tourneys and ON STREAM showed how little he knew when he was going over the tierlists>metafraudnhmrif you want to count him he also streamed with somehow more followers than tempestboth of these tierlists are season 3 and notice how they are almost identical, as if theyre trying to not be different in fear of being called shit and losing credibility or something haha
Posting Ragna the NyanEdge to remind you that he should've been announced for strive instead of Lucy
>>507051430I've asked various people which is probably the same 1-2 people and not a single one has an answer. These disingenuous pros pushing an agenda for personal gain, what do they have to gain by "lying" saying Potemkin is low tier? When very obvious logic would tell you the benefit would be to do the opposite, yet they didn't. Like I said before if you youtube or google season 3 strive tier list just about every single one has Potemkin low tier.
>>507051789I look like this
>>507051430>both of these tierlists are season 3 and notice how they are almost identical, as if theyre trying to not be different in fear of being called shit and losing credibility or something hahaZando was unique in downplaying Asuka while other pros didn't do this. Your logic falls apart again. Your so desperately grasping at straws. Just admit Potemkin was not top tier when season 3 came out so we can stop this nonsense.
>>507051839>>507052179by "lying" saying pot is lowtier, they keep their credibilitythese """pros""" want nothing more than to keep their small amount of popularity in the faggot airspace to propel themselves to something like sajam. if they were to lose credibility they would lose their chance at that. >very obvious logicretarded logic but surealso pot was mid tier at best last season before he got super armor on his best moves and had his grabs damage doubled with a bluetooth hitbox, along with 5H and fS airhit giving hkd (aka oki anywhere on screen)when the fuck were we talking about season 3 pot?
Tyurara/Nage/Mocchi also put Pot in bottom 2 in one of their collab S3 tier list. Just admit that he became mid tier in 1.38
You don't have to know the game to beat everyone else at the gameYou don't have to be lying to be retarded.
Every patch I'm more and more sure that these fuckers just do not understand anything about Ram. Her being as good as she is purely by accident. I wouldn't mind her getting nerfed if it felt like they at least understand how she works.>it was too easy to stall until you got back the swords, so we made it longerthis was ONLY while exerting continuous corner pressure, in any other circumstance you're fuckedif they Burst, YRC, or otherwise interrupt that pressure, you're fuckedand without swords she has little very limited corner pressure >some moves were too strong without swords so we nerfed 623p so it no longer connects from 2Kthis SHOULD be completely fair, getting corner to corner from that was bonkers, but the problem is YOU FUCKERS KILLED EVERY OTHER 2K COMBO 2 PATCHES AGO, the solution was to change rekka loops, which is the actual busted thing, if it wasn't for rekka loops she wouldn't get as meaningful of a reward from 2k > 623p, and she also HAS to do 2k into rekka immediately afterwards so rekka should be the obvious target>this also makes it more challenging to confirm from f.Sabsolutely outstanding dickheads, now she's back to being a character with no good special cofirms off of f.S just like all the other mid-long range— what do you mean they all have good confirms?>We nerfed rekka to limit its repeated usageOh so you DID nerf Rekka too... BUT THAT KILLS HER COMBO GAME SINCE YOU MADE IT RELIANT ON REKKA 2-PATCHES AGO YOU FAAAAGS>decreased guard crush from Rekka 2 and 3I DON'T HAVE LOWERCASES FOR THIS, THAT WAS THE ONLY THING KEEPING REKKA 2 AND 3 EVEN REMOTELY USABLE, NOW THEY'RE WORTHLESS YOU NIGGERS! DEMOTE DAISUKE TO COMPOSER GET HIM OUT OF THE DEV TEAM NOOOOOW!!!!>reduced damage on Calvadosthis would be fine and all IF YOU HADN'T MADE IT SO MODERATELY HIGHER DAMAGE NEEDING SPECIFIC ROUTES IS THE MOVE'S ONLY FUNCTION AHHHHHHHHHH>removed wall bounce from 236s ok, this is actually just a good change
>>507052269>by "lying" saying pot is lowtier, they keep their credibilityOr maybe he was low tier at the beginning of season 3????? By your logic any time pros agree apparently its pushing an agenda to keep credibility. Also why don't Leffen and Zando do this when they downplay who they play? Your logic doesn't work. >when the fuck were we talking about season 3 pot?Maybe you weren't here from the beginning but that was always my main point. Yes some pros are disingenuous but to write every single one of them off while believing people here are trustworthy instead is insanity. >>507052462I honestly forgot all about this tier list and just had a vague memory of Japanese pros also putting Potemkin low tier for season 3 release. But apparently 3 pros from Japan agreeing means they are too afraid to go against the grain for the sake of their credibility.

>>507053207the reason we write off like 70% of the """top""" players is due to when tempest got banned they released a document showing that like 70% of the last tournaments was just wintrades between friends to get a moment in the spotlight

>>507051381>What is the benefit of pros "lying" and saying Potemkin is low tier when season 3 came out? Wouldn't it make more sense to upplay him and complain about him so hes seen as good so he doesn't get buffed? Your logic is extremely flawed.Your brain likely doesn't work properly. Potemkin is only played by shitter and redditors and even if he was god tier or shit tier it doesn't matter anyway because his MUs are so volatile he is both a no brain character but also a character that is way to fucking hard to be consistent with.Not a single pro has anything to win by complaining about Pot because there is no Pot that could win against them in any offline scenario, however they can get robbed by Rang13, Verix, Tempest or Umisho (in the case of s3) that's why they'll complain about their characters instead.Also I'm not the guy who said Pot was top5 in s3 I just claim all pros are maitaining an agenda which is true and you can see that in any modern fg.
Disregarding any pro tier list does /ggg/ unironically think Potemkin was top tier when season 3 started?
>>507054273I think Pot has been top 10 since WWA got buffed.
>>507054273I didn't but I thought Johnny was top tier when s3 started or was going to be top tier with a simple buff and look where we are now everyone is seething about Johnny.You can call me a visionary if you want.
>potemkin>decent mid tier>season 4>remove karas and other small nerfs with big compensation buffs>potemkin players in a frenzy and want karas back>arcsys caves and puts karas back in with the tiniest compensation nerfs>potemkin is probably top 5 now
>>5070542731.29: top 10 is RWA toons + Nago and HC1.33: top 10 is RWA toons + Nago, HC and Goldlewis1.38: top is RWA toons + Nago, HC and Goldlewis
>Potemkin can do round start kara buster with extended range and armor
pot buster should be his best abare. now take away his 5f 5p.the game could do with worse mash options on quite a few characters.
>>507059621its crazy that they did not nerf base potbuster range and the oki since you could already reach some round start options with a micro walk lol potbuster
lobby?
Why did they not also give Nago the kara input qol?
>>507064178What quality of life did Potemkin get to his kara input?
Im sorry to say this /ggg/, but THIS is the real guest character that Strive needed for the season 4 pass
>>507064321FDB does not come out if you input forward
>>507065462I'd rather have Gran or another gbfv character
>>507065462>Red potemkin
>>507064178Nago players simply have better execution. The reason they removed Pot's karas in the first place is because they wanted him to be accessible, and karas were a great barrier. Now you have a lot more leeway to fuck up.>>507065462Go to afgg and stay there.
>>507067018>Nago players simply have better executionlol lmao evenNagos can not even link the bloodrage pop consistently, Karas were removed so non Pot players could pick him up and mash with him like the rest
https://www.twitch.tv/ceogamingstrive was supposed to start in 8 minutes but blazblue top 8 is still at losers finals
>>507068681Not surprising, average blazblue bnb takes 30 minutes
>>507059621>>507055669This is reparations for xrd
if you unironically wanted Pot to receive meaningful compensation nerfs after Nago, Sol, Ram and HC have been dodging them for years, youre mentally ill
>>507061865I will not host but I will beg by your side
>nago, gold, bed and pot are all strong this patchwhat the FUCK
modern players btfo, learn some execution chumps
why wont arcsys just rework how stain state works on block anyway?
>>507068681It has begun
>>507073561I would rather big bodies be strong than pixie characters soive's design ethos is right. nobody wants to watch cutscene combos, nobody wants to be forced to hold looping mix, nobody enjoys backdash > backdash > backdash > fullscreen run up/projectile/whiff punish neutralpixie characters are so much more of a piss off than big bodies
>>507000737I would be willing to say that I am in the range of best 30 players in the world at Strive and I feel it's necessary to say that a lot of the pro players you guys would defer to get your opinions from about character strength in are very biased by both their own character choice and also the general Strive community as a whole. Many players have friends or are in groups that have players of certain characters which means that they are more susceptible to being lenient on how good or bad characters are. I personally like how /ggg/ operates, at least how it did in the past, due to the fact that there is nothing that can add weight to what someone says other than the post itself. If someone says some shit like "X character is broken" and then refuses to elaborate, then you can disregard it quite easily. But, if they can actually go into the specifics about stuff like that, then it actually is meaningful and worth taking into consideration especially since that bias is a lot less complicated to account for. Here we don't have to play nice about whether a character is good or not because we know some tranny who would get upset that we might insinuate that they are carried by their character
>>507076315sneed is a baron in the market place of ideas

How do I get into GG's story?
>>507091728GG > GGX > GGXX > Overture > Xrd (Sign, then Rev) > StriveJust watch Woolie's videos until Xrd, then watch the story mode until Strive's after story. Take a look at some arcade endings for any chars you particularly fancy too.
>>507091728you read or watch itit's not in any way complicated and faggots only pretend it is to pad youtube videos because it's long winded
>>507091728https://youtu.be/QIjtNL7Pfqwthis or reading wikis for several hours, your choice
>>507092049>>507092125>>507092142I don't really want to watch hour long summaries, I want to actually experience the story. Thanks for the game order list, I guess I'll just play those, is there anything I need to know for that?
>>507092407Interspersed between the 2D games there are a couple Japanese audio dramas and a pachinko(?) game Vastedge that are canon.Not all of GGXX's revisions have canon arcade routes because Daisuke wasn't involved for most of it, and the lore was tidied up a lot during Xrd.
>>507084795>>507085050ggs, closedi think 4-30 collectivelyi need to commission more testament millia fanart
>>507092407Woolie videos also include the audio CD dramas
>>507092934Vastedge is between Overture and Xrd actually
>>507093837>Le pachinko machine is CORE to the lore hehehoolmao>It's inconsequential and has no bearing on anything
>>507093947It shows off the Conclave which is pretty cool.
Wow, that was a fast Goldlewis round. Good thing he struggles in neutral.
>>507093947Well that one Conclave member being dead is kinda a big deal. And it's referenced in Answer's arcade mode. And it explains why Sol's sword is so different, he upgrades it with the flashing fang. And it's the last time we ever see Izuna. So yeah it's basically nothing, but I feel like you'd at least want to know about it.
Was the word Conclave said verbally a single time anywhere in Strive
Bridal Express
>>507095146this but without a hint of sarcasm
>>507092407>I want to actually experience the storyThat's the major problem with this franchise, you can't, at least in an organic manner.Most of the lore comes from drama CDs and game manuels which are hard to find and barely translated apart if you wanna read paragraphs on the wiki.Other than that there is things you will never access like Vastedge, a limited time pachinko machine which also contains important lore and is partly lost media.As a fighting game what is cannon is also extremely vague, basically Sol's arcade mode is always the cannon route but A LOT of events in many of the characters arcade mode actually seem to happen according to the following games but some others are completely not cannon.Basically no one ever experienced the complete GG story gradually like it was meant to be, if you want to discover everything from 0 good luck but you will eventually skip over lot of things by accident or simply to not bore yourself to death.

>>507109082what Chipp rekkas
i like how strive players don't even know how to deal with matchups, they just guess until they get their turn back. i guess that's the price of playing a game designed to let casual mashers get wins.
>>507109659He only has one rekka set. If he doesn't have meter after he does this he either has to take a chance on the last hit or let you take your turn.

Considering the ridiculous stray hits slayer can turn into meterless loops it's really weird that a counterhit far slash isn't one of them
It will never stop being funny how they made bridget trans only for pot to steal his role
>>507128443thanks watching now
>>507126039Allow Bedman to cancel it into his actual error and vice versa. There. Now with that meter gain and framekill, nothing bad could ever happen.Or, a much more fun way would be to let him duplicate his currently stored error off of it, and have him autocharge the same error deja vu style. Hold two lightning stocks.

>>507131980everyone was floor 9 once
>>507132346i was celestial on june 11 2021
>>507128487It wouldn't be that bad. First bed man has to shoot a special, recover, do the delay special, recover, then use the actual error. That's at least 200+ frames of setup for one attack.
>>507131980Floor 9 is pretty much the same as celestial
>>507132804it would bet. was a top 10 bedmanit's not that hard to set up an error between needle neutral and oki. 5H > 214K is pretty much unpunishable, from there the opponent would have to hold the error call because install errors don't go away on block, then bedman could loop that scenario because install errors are so plus

>>507136884why is everyone so obsessed with her then>>507137145this didn't seem memeless or unironic...
why is that bitch from CP getting added? she looks so boring compared to everyone else in the roster.
>>507135450Wait is there actually a GG beat em up, is it good?
>>507140843>why is that bitch from CP getting added?because a dev likes her
>>507140905It's Guilty Gear Judgment, it was on the PSP. It's not bad for what it is, I'd say it has some awkwardness with what direction your facing and it makes some compromises when it comes to jumping and to fitting character movelists into a different control scheme that aren't the best, but it's fine for what it is. It's more of a novelty than something that really stands out on its own quality, but it's worth a playthrough, especially with how short it is.

>>507173472Hotashi. The man who saved Guilty Gear.
>>507173472Skull DuggersBut anything but Razzo would be fine
Why are Millia fags so obsessed with the deflect shield OS? It’s cost 50% burst
>>507173472Me
>>507173472Why isn't the top 30 player in the world here?
>>507172461This is why leo keeps getting nerfed
>>507172461The weirdest thing about this clip is how they randomly start talking about KidViper like he's the group onahole.
No where else to complain about it but that extra story DLC thing was so shit man. I could forgive it in the main story because they were new to it but how can they still not manage to make the characters actually look like they're walking on ground. Baiken and Delilah develop this mother sister relationship despite talking about three times total. Sin is as retarded as ever. Faust zombies himself after a single doubt after a convo with an ex genocidal maniac. Glad I creamapi'd it.
>>507177327They're saving all their good writing for the animeBelieve it!

>>507140843To get funding for the upcoming Netflix anime Dual Rulers, Arcsys struck a deal with them to include a netflix anime guest character in Strive for cross promotion.
>>507180943Bro, Lucy was designed by CDPR. They are the ones that give a shit about keeping interest in the cyberpunk IP alive. If Netflix was behind the production, it would have already been announced like with their actual CGI anime projects. GGDR didn’t even show up in any of the netflix licensing deal leaks
>>507136852shes very fun depending on how you play.do you enjoy sitting back and falling asleep waiting to whiff punish? its the most optimal way to play her but its boring as fuckdo you enjoy gambling your entire health bar at round start? constantly running at the opponent trying to either low profile or tk kapel over lows? tk turbofall over hkd to double crossup? its a lot more fun than playing optimally, but more often than not the opponent is gonna press a button by accident and oneshot youits a real shame that her disk kind of took a backseat when it comes to her gameplay. watch any high level gameplay of her and you see disk maybe twice
>>507181537hey i like whiff punishing and think disc is stupid, i'll try her!
>>507175207>why are you upset that you can completely take your turn back against a setplay character with oki for only half burst>just win neutral and 5 interactions to have a chance at putting them back into the exact same situation>still has second half of burst>probably generated enough for another halfits kind of impossible to ever play around disk when it exists, which is why its almost never used in higher elo
>>507140843Ken loves CP and spent lots and lots of money to get her in. If you didn't creamapi the dlc then this is your fault.
>loves Sin and CPWow, never seen this one before. Get some new material.

>>507140843>poll results show that the west wants a guest fighter over D-listers like Kum >Dev team wants to give GG brand more exposure so insular fighting game characters are off the table>Pick Lucy out of a hat of FOTM weeb characters that haven’t been done in arena fighters, have prestige, haven’t been done to death in gacha collabs, owned by an interested party that’s willing to do more with the IP and has an unique fighting style that isn’t shooting fire balls or swinging a sword aroundProbably how it went
>>507177327Podcaster Asuka vs Fred (forma bata de laboratorio) will redeem it
Why does hotashit shake his head like a spazzing out retard after every round?
If they wanted more players they'd pick something people consistently care about to get a guest from.

>>507185632In order to make Zato lore accurate, they need to give him all of his bullshit from each game and make it strong.
>>507185632Seriously though, imagine being Zato, going through all that edgy ass MUH SUFFERING MUH DARKNESS AGHHH THE TORTURE just to still, even in lore, be a total jobber. ooh I can make my shadow bite people, normal-ass humans with widespread magical training anyone can access wiped out gears in the crusades.

if the real way to play millia is to ignore disc and just use abuse your movement with strong fundies, doesn't that mean every millia guide and the whole dustloop is just going to be "Here's how to set up disc in any possible situation and then you just le win because you set up disc" making them all useless

>>507186862ohhh the guides are all 3 years old because nobody gives a shit about this character, i see i see
>>507186315I would just be complaining about Hotashi being a carried nigger the whole time, no point. And the commentators being horrible but at least not as shit as the +R commentators. And talking about Xrd here just leads to retards spamming Xturd and we don't play that crap here, there's really no point.

>>507189610muh red drank n shiet
>>507189610muh fuggin blood nigga
Slayer should also have a blood gauge that makes his attacks more damaging, faster, more disjointed and gives him an invincible screen freeze that launches his opponent into the sky for a free hit
>>507189610he gots to manage resources nigga
>>507186315I like Xrd, but I rarely find myself that interested in watching tournaments for it. I did when it was the currently supported GG and enjoyed it then, but something about it as a sidegame doesn't hold the same appeal. Maybe it's just the lower level of competition and fewer competitors meaning you always see the same characters and players.
>>507186315I can't watch xrd, it's impossible to visually parse
>>507190650Same man.
>>507190546Personally with all modern fighting games I can’t be bothered to watch a tournament outside of skipping to the part with a character I play.
>>507190650I think it's pretty easy to parse if you've played the game for a bit, but I think fast fighting games like that always seem impossible to follow until you've played them a bit yourself. I used to think BB was a complete mess whenever I saw footage of it but playing just a bit of it changed that. I think MvC2 and 3 look like mess whenever I see them too, but I've never put much time into them and I imagine if I played at even a beginner level I'd find it much easier to follow when I see footage of it.
>>507190546This. NA’s Xrd scene is stale as hell.
>Want to play Dizzy because she's cute and I want to have sex with her until my dick falls off>Don't want to play Dizzy because she's boring as sin and completely saucelessso this is how xturders felt
>>507191687I'll also say I feel the same way about +R on that topic. It's always Skeletal Minion, ElvenShadow, Foo and so on. I'm happy to play the game but side tournaments for it at events like CEOtaku just aren't interesting to watch even if I'm sure they're fun to participate in.
>>507191842Dizzy is a married woman you ugly bastard.
>>507191842I think Sin is a bit more interesting than Dizzy.

>>507192440Make it harder next time
The world will be a better place when people stop pretending to like Zappa.
>>507193293Man I love Zappa
>>507193443Zappa's like Slayer where people think he's cool unless they fighting against him and then they realize he's actually a faggot.
>>507193590I play and play against him, he is actually cool. The hate for old top tiers is mostly from people who never played and overthink it.
>>507193590>hee hee le funny dandy man killed that guy in 4 button presses lmao dandyism le goreela lololol>WHAT THE FUCK HE KILLED ME WITH 4 BUTTONS WHAT THE FUCK IS THIS BULLSHIT DAISUKE NERF THIS CHARACTER RIGHT MEEOOOOOWWWWW
>>507193706Plenty of the hate for old top tiers in +R is completely earned, +R has many very fucked up characters. Just to show I don't hate them all with a blanket just because they're top tier, I'll even admit I don't find Testament that bad to fight even if he is strong, but Zappa is a chore to fight, only Baiken is more anti-fun.
>>507193293from the little that i played +R, this was the character i liked the most. seemed kinda broken though. i would play him in strive
Are any of the 2 bar supers ever actually going to do more damage than 2 roman cancels would have?
>>507193806>WHAT THE FUCK HE KILLED ME WITH 4 BUTTONS WHAT THE FUCK IS THIS BULLSHIT DAISUKE NERF THIS CHARACTER RIGHT MEEOOOOOWWWWWStop being a sissy
>>507194045i play slayer that was me imitating all of you and every pro now that the funny oneshotting dhampir is in a real game instead of a youtube video
Oh so when Daru randomly does dash forward dash backward HCL over and over he's the goat and a genius but when I do it I'm just leaving myself completely open for 10 seconds at a time and get destroyed
>>507194038Yes, mostly due to wall health sometimes crippling RC combosSlayer's also can give more damage because he can route into it from sometimes weird starters
>>507193916It's just the way many people describe Zappa, Testament, or Baiken makes me think they either have not played it or did not go far in +R. When they describe them as unbeatable monsters and saw them on the top of a tier list. Even watching a few tournaments of +R is enough to see that's not true. To someone who only launched it, joined quick match, and got challenged by a more experienced player, any character is going to look unbeatable. Once you learn your character tiers do not matter nearly as much as the player.>>507193967He's strong no doubt, but I would say he's the weakest of the three agreed upon top tiers.
>>507194461when you're playing daru you want to imitate his techniques (ie his combo routing from stray hits and how he structures his offense)you don't want to emulate his playstyle (neutral) because everyone he plays against knows he's daru and is desperately afraid of him so they play weird themselves.
>>507194619He just spams hcl constantly and NOBODY is dashing under it or iading over it, it's insane to watch, they just fucking stand there. You'd think the move was actually as broken as it looks watching it.
>>50719403870% raw is funny enough.
>>507194570Character strength isn't everything either though, people do sometimes correlate the two, but plenty of characters in +R are annoying without being top tier and characters like Zappa and Baiken have plenty to be annoyed about beyond just being good broadly speaking. If Baiken's damage was hugely nerfed or something else that made her a lot weaker but she still had her guard cancels and Baku and she still spent half the time in neutral throwing out a million Tatami Gaeshis people would still think she's a pain in the ass. Maybe not as much of one, but she'd still be annoying, and dealing with Zappa's zoning is a pain in the ass beyond just it being strong too.I will grant that I think a lot of people just regurgitate these things without experience it for themselves, but that's just the reality of a game a lot of people just don't sink their teeth into. I doubt many have actually experienced the annoying aspects of YRC in Xrd despite it getting complained about all the time, but that doesn't delegitimize how annoying it can be either. People posing as hardcore fans may regurgitate these commonly held opinions without experience firsthand where they came from, but there's usually a reason these opinions, like +R having annoying top tiers, got enough traction in the first place to become commonspread enough to reach the people who don't play, pr exaggerate how much they play at least.
Dizzy will lay my eggs and Ky will watch her incubate them
>>507196050Leo…
>>507195551Yeah I get they’re annoying and still actually strong, just I see their strengths exaggerated a lot which is inevitable like you said. Especially when I see someone say Zappa is “the reason they don’t play +R”, at that point they’d not like it even if Zappa never existed and probably dislike the game fundamentally. To put it simply when I see someone use the top tiers to say +R is unbalanced I immediately question their playtime because even if they’re annoying, low tiers can still beat them if you’re good.
>>507196050broody Dizzy getting mad when people come near her nest...

Man Bedman is such a nondescript blob of bullshit, there's no visual indication to what hes doing. Cool, visually appealing character, but terrible game character.
>>507217875Error followups are simple to understand if you play him for a day
>>507217875I think it's dumb that he operates completely on total cartoon logic and think it really dampens any kind of thematic or emotional weight the character is supposed to have when the second it starts fighting it magically transforms into a literal top and pops its own head off only for another to get shoved through the pipe out of nowhere and instantly respawn
>>507217847I am being deadly serious.
>>507217875It's okay because he was designed to be le confusing to throw off his opponents! :)or whatever the cope answer actually is
>>507218162What kind of autism do you have to have to need melodramatic move animations to relate to characters?
If this game had soul Dizzy would be able to melt her ice floor that would turn it into a water floor that would nerf her fire moves but buff her ice moves and then freeze that water to make the ice floor
>>507218162>emotional weight of a mechanical Bedframe possessed by an autistic kid that calls himself Bedman
>>507218491That's already two steps too complex for Strive
>>507218425This post is so fucking stupid in so many ways it's difficult to mock it concisely.
calling Bed confusing after a year is a self-own and you should feel ashamed. Just mash instead of waiting for your turn like a cuck
>>507218425AHAHHAHA Dumbass hahahhaha
Sol should do a ballerina pirouette when he Volcanic Vipers because attack animations don't matter

>gets mad he's wrong and dumb>mashes the buzzword OSoh no no no no
Bedman should have like 1000 eHP, but Delilah should die in like 2 hits. Something to further exaggerate his protectorate role.
>>507220293I should be able to jump to the front lane and fight her directly, killing her will send bedman into bed install for the rest of the round but he will lose all his health over time
Did Bedman even have an install? Is there any lore or reference for it other than angry ghost? Is the bed itself mad? Why is it so evil and spooky?
>>507220129Okay explain how that post was not about how anon thinks the bomb error animations looks “dumb” in the context of Bed’s new characterization
>>507220814It was about thatHe didn't say anything about it though, he literally just said oh my science ludonarrative dissonance instead of trying to make any kind of pointhe got mad someone had an opinion he didn't like and started furiously typing buzzwordsnext he's going to say media literacy
>>507220671overclocking anime trope
>>507220671It's called called 'Call 13C' which is 316 in decimal. 316 is a reference to John 3:16.>For God so loved the world, that He gave His only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in Him should not perish, but have everlasting life.Which itself is a reference to that he's about to spam projectiles.
>>507221424>No, don't! You can't actually download more RAM!>AAAAAAAAAAAUUUUUUUUUUUUUUGGGGGGGGGHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!
for me its beddoman? 6H animation :)
>>5072225365D is kino
>>507222536i like the cool ghost bed screech
don't bedman's knees hurt doing 2D like this?
It was HER turn
>>507222536i like the falling burst animation. they cute
>>507222859It would be soulful if Delilah had a special fallling animation if you do the install in the air
>>507222859Why is her ass so fat
>>507222983standing in mid air is maximum soul
>>507215536Strive doesn’t have enough budget for a ranked mode
you soivers are so pathetic
>>507220671Bedman didn't have an install, the only kinda similar thing effect-wise is the red and black sheep thing he summons- but his gameplay has always been pretty disconnected from what he actually does in lore. He doesn't have anything similar to deja vu, he just teleports around a bunch and stabs people.
>>507223675Hmm no don't think so.
>>507215031Literally who?
