Spoiler Shield!!!

[@greenscorpion64]

Dude, glad to see my boi Ky Kiske doing WORK!

[@yuggor]

Baiken always had this incredible power of choosing which arm she doesn't have.

[@Konakonizumi]

Arсsys is a small indie studio. They don't have a budget for such little things.

One-upping Sagat

[@kylemcclendon6058]

My very first tournament game live streamed who would of thought

[@SoulHeartRS]

So much Ky representation. Love it. I’m taking lots of notes.

[@Konakonizumi]

Wow, representation in a tournament with three competitive players... This top 8 is truly amazing....

[@AndreasMaldengsenKlaas-mf7yw]

Where milia guy

[@Konakonizumi]

I instead him. By the way, you can read my opinion. I'm not forcing it on you. I look forward to an objective dialogue, if you are capable

[@Rivershield]

This is the first time I see Ky winning a tournament

[@AMEMORYSAY0]

I’m getting my popcorn ready mhmmmm

[@ItsAZues]

How did dig found out that Bridget's Brake version of quarter circle back A can combo into crouching kick?

[@IfWhatYes]

It's a tumble state you can always combo off that

[@johnthompson4712]

We love seeing Fern22 don't we folks

[@danielpratt3794]

Dany! That's mah boi

2:41:00 holy shit

[@pokeyclawz8727]

13:16 why did that counter hit into super do so little damage?

[@booshka8001]

It was comboing off his dp

[@MysticColorsAttack]

3:24:40 bro how do you block this holy shit

[@PsychoticMercy]

It’s doable but my god is it hard to process in the short amount of time he had but this is MFCR he has seen everything so I give him props for the recognition

[@Konakonizumi]

he simply guessed 50/50 twice these two BMs. The rest - is nothing complicated. Technically, you can see how he stood up right away, because it was obvious that Millia would go for bm with full tension bar, the subsequent kap, dust, crossup, jump S, landing and low are not difficult to block on reaction. And one more badmoon would be something unexpected for you, but for a top player who knows all the options it is not so difficult to guess.

[@Konakonizumi]

It's probably hard for you to believe this, but even Sol with a full tension bar and WA is capable of more than Millia here. Also, the damage of Sol is simply indecently huge.

[@thisistherun4015]

​@@KonakonizumiDo you figure the Kapel > jS had crossup protection?

[@some_guy56]

Damn the keep off screening my boy mj

[@limb-o7180]

1:13:05 cancelling your safejump to throw instead is evil

[@Hellscrap3r]

Fern's Ky absolutely terrifies me.

​@@Hellscrap3rTyurara and Dany might have better overall fundamentals but Fern's Ky is the sauciest imo

Wild Assault Strive

[@Konakonizumi]

Cheap mechanics for a cheap game

[@vaschmir]

first?

[@fadykhalil4046]

If it was Walter, it would be a different story.

[@Konakonizumi]

Walter almost moved on to Chip. I see him and Chipp on Twitch more and more often. I think very soon he will stop mocking himself with Millia. The character was unpromising from the start in 2021. There has never been such a terrible release like Strive, for Millia

[@dannyreb3391]

Do the commentators even play the game?

[@Saharah14]

They know the moves of each character and the games' internal mechanics, as well as the gameplans of each character. What gives you the idea they don't play?

[@Saharah14]

Sometimes, color commentators are invited simply for personality, but I dont think that is the case here. If you had Yipes commentating Strive I'd get it.

[@Konakonizumi]

tournament with three competitive players... This top 8 is truly amazing....

[@Konakonizumi]

So much work, so much effort... and still failure. You can't get anything out of Millia in this game. Shes dried out. The new move is just another rattle. Just do 3 times more than others if you want to survive... Why all this efforts, endless mixups, moves that don’t convert into damage half the time, disk setups that don’t function in half the situations....if do you get defeated after 1- 2 combos? There is simply no point in trying with her. Rat would have achieved more long ago if he had train on some cheap autopilot S tier. The unpleasant truth. Arcsystems are too cowardly to go against the cheap scrub community and try to make this game at least a little fair and balanced for everyone, but not only for the “elite” with one touch damage and in autopilot mode.

[@EvilPineappl]

I wish I was dumb enough to whine when my character gets top 2. Ignorance is bliss

[@Konakonizumi]

@@EvilPineappl Ignorance is what you wrote here. Pretend that "Millia's player didn't do 3 times more than the other players for this" "Pretend that Millia was completely fine throughout 3 years." And pretend that "Millia has a chance at the TOP level majors", instead of the semi-major shown here with a maximum of 4 competitive players... It's done, we got one more "The lucky owner of Gorilla HappyChaos Strive, who will think, that his game is extremely balanced" (:

[@EvilPineappl]

And bliss is when aboii won that tourney recently. POTEMKIN #1 LETS GOOOOOOO

[@Konakonizumi]

@@EvilPineappl How about calculating results from general statistics, rather than from one or two selective second-rate tournaments once a year?

Weekly reminder that Strive is not Guilty Gear. But a Glamorous Garbage
