It’s 100% getting nerfed

[@trainerwsm]

Have you seen wild throw?

[@trainerwsm]

Ok but it literally does more damage than heavenly pot buster

[@ZeriocTheTank]

Is the guts system still in the game? That should lessen the damage, but if not then it's best to delete this comment. We Pot mains don't need this getting nerfed. Let's go back to the Accent Core days everyone! Remember those days when Pot reigned supreme? Let's go back.

Jesus: "It's okay for grapplers to be good!" Casuals: "SHUT UP!" They hated Jesus because he told them the truth.

[@SharkLordProductions]

I love how his idle is just a permanent *BOI* pose, as if to say "Why do you keep walking into my attacks?"

[@frostychaos368]

As a fighting game noob about to play guilty gear for the first time, I must say this video makes me scared of Potemkin.

[@Hakokoro]

And you should.Not to say you should ebcause he is too hard to beat. But Potemkin (and other grapplers gameplan) is basically punish you when you are not afraid.Or predict you if you are too afraid.(For example a good Potemkin player will try to bait you into jumping,either to attack or escape)

[@kingofgrunder5494]

He is THE noob killer. However, we are a friendly folk.

[@HadesHatredEdge]

Play Ky.

[@Manganization]

Potemkin is sorta heavily reliant on reads, unless his gameplan has been changed in this game.

[@mrfroboto1]

I feel that, we'll be walking on this new battlefield together.

[@Gabriel_PL]

Chipp: Noooooo! You cannot kill me in two/three grabs! This game is so unbalanced! Xrd had better mixups reee Potemkin: haha potemkin bustah goes kaboom

[@reneoliver4080]

I love how the last thing we hear is just the commentator speaking calmly while potemkin is about to fucking crumple chipp

[@novriltataki]

That shotgun does as much damage on chip as a Slash normal does on hit lol...

[@NoirLouisStream]

wait, Lemme check Edit: Is that even a poke? The chip is so big that you better jump away rather than blocking it.

[@mannythelazyguy6529]

yeah, thats the point of potem, he will kill you if you are in range, thats why he has the double knuckle dash ass the only get in option, he doesn't even has a dash

@ Faultless defense would prevvent the chip, but leave you open to command grab, either way, you need to guess for defensive player.
