Who Should You Play In GGST Season 3

[@Angelo_August]

I like how many of the characters' strengths are being narrated while they're also getting absolutely destroyed in the footage at the same time

[@errorsyntax404wontworth6]

Testament mains are part of a collective mix-up. They condition you to only expect projectiles so that the one Testament that uses the teleport catches you off guard from the conditioning. Truly the most synchronized group of players.

[@SpicyLove12]

Nah, I had a friend who played them who loved to spam it. I seen the tele so much that I reactively just press 2k whenever I see it.

[@spoon8761]

As one of the Testament mains that uses teleport, I must express my gratitude to the rest of the collective.

[@carl.from.accounting]

I use the teleport I never really knew why I messed people up so much. Their neurons always just kind of shut down whenever I do it, it’s very fun

[@M-Trigger]

As a Test main that uses the teleport a lot, even when I shouldn't, I don't care about being effective, I just want to give my opponent a mental breakdown. I sometimes even hold the K button for canceling the teleport and stay in place. I have never got a punnish out of it, but as long as I know I'm messing with my opponents mind, It will always be worth of it.

[@SpicyLove12]

@@M-Trigger as a Bridget/Jack o main, please keep using the teleport. Getting free oki off of 2k > 2d punish is always nice.

Reasons to play Anji: Watching people switch between “This character is bottom tier” and “This character needs to be removed from the game” on a minute to minute basis is funny. Also Axl’s English VA is the most wholesome human being in existence.

17:23 common misconception. Movement and neutral are not issues for Goldlewis unlike for Pot or Johnny. His actual weakness is defense. All of his punch normals are very flawed so he has a hard time getting people off him. That's why he beats characters like axl but loses to chipp.

[@ImCaitlyn1003]

The answer is I-no because she yells "be my bottom bitch" when she grabs you and that makes her objectively the best character

Another note on Goldlewis: He has access to potentially the most damaging super in the game, thanks to being able to charge up his "down with the system" super by performing full circles as opposed to the basic hald-circle-then-flick motion, chargeable up to three different levels of "screw your health bar"

Good luck to you. Also, I don't know if it helps but it is rather difficult to find a main in Strive, there are too many viable options but not "the one" that sticks out.

[@yugijak]

@@marcbraun5342 Yeah. Most of my time is in I-no but I'm kinda floating due to having not put a significant time investment in recently. Also maybe realizing I don't quite fit behind anybody. Yet. Sol and Bridget are close but I wish they had some like mixed character.

[@marcbraun5342]

@@yugijak They are all quite different to play. Maybe you sort out your favorite playstyle and archetype first and then a character that fits to it, that could help eliminating a few choises and getting through the character crisis.

@@marcbraun5342 I think the crisis is more a lack of practice. I haven't played people and I kinda know what I like doing. I also know there isn't a perfect fit but I shouldn't expect that.

Anyone got recommendations on who to play to slow the game down a bit? I'm used to a more street fighter kind of speed. I've been using baiken but idk, not really feeling it too much. I like the parry but the chain stuff is kinda weird, tatami is really cool though.

[@ImCaitlyn1003]

I'd give Nagoriyuki or Goldlewis a try. They're both big bodied characters and are a lot slower than other characters. Nago literally can't sprint, but has a dash attack that helps close distance, and Goldlewis can sprint, but has slower attacks than most of the cast. Also Potemkin, he's this games equivalent of Zangeif. Big slow grappler. Though beware, Nago has a unique technique (Blood Rage) that takes a lot of concentration to play around.

@@ImCaitlyn1003 appreciate the reply bro but I think imma drop the game for the foreseeable future. The "ranked" system is really weird and the lobby system is extremely tedious, there's some pretty cool characters on there though.

[@gavinsmith1563]

Zato having eddie removed for 7 seconds because someone bursted, yrc'd or did a wild defend which removes all possible pressure zato can use to defend eddie is insane. They removed the BTL baiting burst so there is little consequence for bursting since zato can't use his burst combo anymore, meaning he gets 2-3 hits, then the next interaction is zato only mix since eddie doesn't come back. Most characters now can combo off any hit with zato only being able to WA combo off a clean hit cs, or a CH 2h or 5H in the corner. Why nerf the cmd grab dmg if it wont even bring eddie back.

[@GramdalfFGC]

Coming from Street Fighter where I play Guile, my hot take is that the Leo “unga bunga” meme, is well, a bit of a meme. There’s certainly some truth to it sure, but also with his slower dodge, and slower buttons it actually helps to play a bit more patiently and work for your opening. Maybe I’m wrong but I don’t think he’s the sort of character to run full screen and put you in a blender, i think you play patient neutral with him, then once you have your opening you can let the ape out.
