Guilty Gear Strive is a big deal with many fully unique characters and this video is here to give you enough information on who you should decide as your main! As always pick who you like, but going in educated on what the characters can do should certainly help! Timestamps everywhere on the video so skip to whoever you think is neat and enjoy!

As fighting games have taught me you don't pick the character. Somehow, but more like always, the character will pick you. But if you want more pointers try to find a one that you like the look of the character or their cool moves. Always play the characters that you like never play someone you don’t like. But make sure to try them out, as Ryu always says the answer lies in the heart of battle.

He also has 2 anti-airs with specific utilities instead of one. And most importantly you can't do much with his normals alone. It's not Venom. Eddie usage is required from the start.

Zato was so fun during the beta. His negative edge stuff can allow for some pretty crazy combos and setups. I can't wait to really be able to sit down and lab his stuff without any time restraints.

I don’t even know what this game is, but I just watched the whole vid cuz the animation style is pretty cool
@yohumanfrisk2 жыл бұрын
Same animation style as Dragon Ball FighterZ, mostly since it was made by the same company. Funnily enough, I found out that it's not hand drawn animations for the characters. It's 3D modeling. Here's a cool video about the topic. Really interesting stuff. You don't gotta watch it, since it's some random link in a comment, which is kinda sketchy, but like. . . I'll leave it here and hope you trust that I'm just some rando who wants to share some cool knowledge. Anyway, have a wonderful day! kzbin.info/www/bejne/oYvWk6Kvm9hggpY

Can't wait to have proper lab time with this game. I exclusively played Faust in both betas since there was a limited time frame and he's been my main since GGX but even then I feel like I barely scratched the surface with him. But I also wanna mess around with everyone else and just.... AAAARGH, there's not enough hours in the day for me to give this game the attention it deserves.

ive never played guilty gear and zato appeals to me the most hoping to learn the game while i play him, im also new to fighting games jumping into fighterz everyone told me dont play nappa because of how hard he is and it did take months but when i learned him i learned the game at a different level and i became a better player hoping the same here. Remember dont choose your character based on tier list or difficulty pick them if they look cool or is fun to you. So for me hoping to learn the game with zato, giovanna and ramlethal. Good luck everyone

so far i love ramlethal, potemkin, and i'm trying to decide on a third. i originally wanted to do leo cause he seems cool af and i am a leo but apparently everyone hates him? (people also say ramlethal is "easy" but people dont seem to really hate her like they hate some other characters).

Guilty Gear Strive is one of the first fighting games I've played, and every single character seems so unique. Last fighting game I played was Street Fighter 5. I enjoyed it, but it was hard to get into. Strive, however, has me hooked from the start. I know absolutely nothing about this series, but picking up Strive was easy. As soon as I tried a few characters, I settled on Giovanna (Your video is certainly accurate about her being beginner friendly) She is super fun to use. Very helpful video. Has me more interested in trying the other characters now.

My method is selecting every character I'm interested in. Then fool around for about 5 minutes in training. If I get a vibe, I'll put em on the bench and move to the next character until I try everyone out.

I've mained Eddie/Zato-1 since the earlier games because he's good long range and close range especially if you know how to abuse Eddie's mobile shadows. Seeing how he's 2 characters now, but the attacks being press and let go, i think he'll be amazing in the right hands.
