In fairness, Sol is still a Gear, he just doesn't have the Flame of Corruption that makes him a threat to literally the world. I think so at least, GG lore is...
He is still a threat to the world as, while he doesnt show it because he's lazy as shit he is still THE strongest gear that's not the Kyske family and he is the third most proficient magic user in the series. Beaten out only by Asuka and Happy chaos. He literally the made the original outrage that was so powerful not even him in his prime could use it
IF Slayer or Nago bites Aba, they both gag because she doesn't have blood, and whatever she does have taste absolutely awful they then proceed to panic and frantically brush thier mouth. If they don't brush their mouths, they will start to take damage.
@@amorales7778 the head certainly is but I don’t know about the rest. The mattress isn’t, and neither is the metal in the arms and hands. One of the hands gets ripped off in Romeo’s fight with Slayer and its all mechanical.
Bro, everyone in Strive dealing with massive depression, existential horror, longing for a distant loved one.... meanwhile Testament is out there living out their fuckin' best lives
After dabbling in making a bloodsport, you gotta find something to fill the "I tried to revive Justice" void. Good for them to just chillax and enjoy [Insert anything here considered a hobby].
"Corrections" (nitpicks) about the lore: -Sol is not a human, he is still a gear but is slowly turning back into a human (Source: GG World, Strive Storymode, Japanese only Daisuke Interview) -In Strive Jack-O is a normal ass human, somehow the process of fusing with Justice in Xrd did that (Source: Strive Story) -Zato is not working for the PWAB, he is working for the Assassins Guild still which was made a subsidiary/internal team of the PWAB (Source: GG World) -Its not confirmed Zato sees through Eddie sadly -Gio actually most likely does not & has not eaten raw meat as in Rei's GG World its stated Rei avoids eating raw meat in consideration for her (Source: GG World) -While yes A.B.A's blood contains Mercury, its mixed with a mystery liquid & for some reason she needs normal ass bloodbags for a bloodtransfusion. Unclear what the effects are on the human body (Source: GG World)
Sol in-game is still a gear and still has the flame of corruption. He uses dragon install during one of his supers, and he still wears the headband that suppresses his gear cells, and he still has his ponytail (he loses that when he becomes human). Plus, he is still called Sol Badguy instead of his regular name, and Sol Badguy is a name he uses because he is a gear
Frederick IS a gear after the flame of corruption is removed. He just doesn't have the flame of corruption, and doesn't need the headband anymore... just like every other humanoid gear.
So Pot is already lore accurate Cause everyone who plays him is already screaming to themselves "just got get in. I have to get in. Get pot Bustered. Gotta get the Potemkin Buster. Need dopamine. I don't have an addiction you do now let me get in"
Y'all know why Leo plays the way he does right? With the back turn? The man is trying to get himself killed in a fight. He is throwing himself at his opponent recklessly almost always. His back turn is also representative of the fact that Leo is at his strongest when he is LITERALLY TURNING HIS BACK TO HIS PROBLEMS.
7:30 ok but if she throws Sin there is a tiny, absolutely MINISCULE chance, like not even a percent, that they recite the last bunch of lines from Ultrakill's secret existential crisis visual novel level called "all imperfect love song", causing Sin to win the entire set by the end of it.
Nah it’s a draw and Sin takes her to go eat a burger with Ram, but she’s allergic to sesame seeds and fucking dies, and then the announcer just goes “SLASH” and Sin wins the set anyways but his post-game animation is just him looking on in horror as his newfound friend is on the floor gasping for air
I can't believe I got baited by the ky section... i foolishly thought it would be an actual ky lore moment but no... he is french.... you win this round gekko.... I am truly both the clowns, as well as the entire circus.
honestly the idea of gabriel barking orders at potmekin sounds like a fun mechanic, you get orders for things to do and get some kind of buff if you pull them off, but obviously this telegraphs the mixup to your opponent, so it sways the perception of risk reward on if you will follow the orders or not.
Most of these were fun jokes, but 3 stood out to me as being kinda interesting ideas: 1. Jack-O switching to Aria: This is honestly an underated idea. Giving Jack-O a stance mechanic where she switches to Aria, who would have a different moveset and play-style, and being able to swap back at any time would be a phenomenal idea that would give her more gameplay depth. The way you would tell which is which is by having the hair invert the colors. Jack-O would be white on the outside and red on the inside while Aria is the inverse. Make it so that you can swap between them at any time but cost a resource to do it mid-combo/block string and I think you'd have a really cool stance character. 2. Bedman? showing wear and tear in combat as the fight goes on should be a cool visual detail. If the bed does too many moves that hurt it or takes too much damage but wins the fight, the victory animation shows Delilah being concerned and trying to polish it. 3. Goving A.B.A. a poison blood mechanic would be pretty cool. It would make her similar to Alien's Acidic Blood variation in MKX and would be really cool to see.
11:51 A.B.A does in fact have red blood, but it contains mercury. That’s why she still uses blood bags and in +R she did some weird shit with her blood like summoning fire columns and throwing out blood projectiles. Yes she used to have projectiles but no one remembers that. Also she used to cut herself on Paracelsus’ blade to activate some abilities so to him anyway, it counts as blood.
God magically summoning 110,920 unamed projectmoon fans to type "pm sleeper agent" after a mere mention of their favourite stuff: I like Devyat association

Okay, but like actually though: why can't Sin get a bottle of sugar water from his food pull, though? It could just, like, increase his movement speed or something, I dunno, but he literally has a move that makes perfect sense to give him sugar water.
If Johnny has a 25% chance of dying when throwing a card, and I have to throw a card every 30 seconds, I’m still not dropping my boy. I’m just leaning till I die
"I am going to make a video about Guilty Gear lore accuracy" *10 seconds in* "Sol is literally setting his hand on fire because he is a gear" bro your magic?
actually the dragon install is binded to the flame of corruption and the scales of juno asuka removed the flame from sol at the end of strive which made him lose the dragon install hes still a gear
Or the person it's used on has a chance to be forced into a blood rage with a bigger debuff on damage taken for the rest of the match (to represent them being newly turned into a vampire)
11:22 oh no I can already hear it Asphalt: Wow you have a move called Ride The Lightning? That is like my favorite Metallica though I really love And Justice For All because of how heavy some of its riffs are almost sounding like death metal but it also loses weight because there's no bass poor Jason but Ride The Lightning has really loud bass from Cliff man Cliff Burton's death is still so sad did you know that before he d- Ky: God if you're still listening, strike me where I stand

This is my first fighting game. Didn't think I would enjoy the genre that much even though I like platform fighters but man this game is just eye candy and its fun as FUCK
According to Daisuke, Sol is still a Gear but regressing back to a human after the Flame of Corruption had been removed from him. The anime might possibly retcon this if Daisuke goes back on his decision, but we will never know-though given it is an after-story to Strive, safe bets Sol might fully be human in it when fighting Unika.
To make it actually balanced about ram’s love for burgers when Faust pulls out a random item with what could this be or its funnier counterparts instead of doughnuts it should instead be a burger (Only a visual change)
If Guilty Gear has taught me anything, it's that reflecting on immortality and your legacy makes you Horny As Hell, see Raven and I-No. Apparently, Warhammer Eldars had it right, when nothing matters and life is pointless, might as well abuse pleasure to endure it.
In fairness, Sol is still a Gear, he just doesn't have the Flame of Corruption that makes him a threat to literally the world. I think so at least, GG lore is...
Yeah, you're right.
sometimes I forget that sol was losing control of his dragon install and was one day be a threat
im fairly sure daisuke confirmed in an interview that hes still very powerful as of the end of the strive story
@@fnndhshsbxnfvery powerful, yes. But not as powerful as he was before
He is still a threat to the world as, while he doesnt show it because he's lazy as shit he is still THE strongest gear that's not the Kyske family and he is the third most proficient magic user in the series.

After over a decade of being depressed and confused inside a swamp to be fair.
Saw a fan art recently where it's just Testament's version of that one Metalocalypse scene where Nathan Explosion goes "nah I fuckin love my dad"
and happy chaos is just fuckin goofin around, drinking milpiko(I think that’s how you spell it)
I really wanna build Gunpla with them 😊
"Corrections" (nitpicks) about the lore:
-Sol is not a human, he is still a gear but is slowly turning back into a human (Source: GG World, Strive Storymode, Japanese only Daisuke Interview)
-In Strive Jack-O is a normal ass human, somehow the process of fusing with Justice in Xrd did that (Source: Strive Story)
-Zato is not working for the PWAB, he is working for the Assassins Guild still which was made a subsidiary/internal team of the PWAB (Source: GG World)
-Its not confirmed Zato sees through Eddie sadly
-Gio actually most likely does not & has not eaten raw meat as in Rei's GG World its stated Rei avoids eating raw meat in consideration for her (Source: GG World)
-While yes A.B.A's blood contains Mercury, its mixed with a mystery liquid & for some reason she needs normal ass bloodbags for a bloodtransfusion. Unclear what the effects are on the human body (Source: GG World)
6) She has a lot of cinnabar in her system.
Sol is slowly turning more into a human, but he's still going to be the prototype gear.
Sol in-game is still a gear and still has the flame of corruption. He uses dragon install during one of his supers, and he still wears the headband that suppresses his gear cells, and he still has his ponytail (he loses that when he becomes human). Plus, he is still called Sol Badguy instead of his regular name, and Sol Badguy is a name he uses because he is a gear
Even after the end of the story he's still a gear lol. Just not quite as much of an op one.
@@SoI_Badguy to be specific, he loses the flame of corruption. and to what gecko said about fire, its magic that isnt tied to his gear cells
@@phageios I made a small change to my comment to be more correct. Thank you for the correction
DAISUKE!
GIVE US SIN SUGAR WATER INSTALL, AND MY LIFE IS YOURS!
replace eat meat with drink sugar water and every time he does it it makes him move faster for the rest of the match
Frederick IS a gear after the flame of corruption is removed. He just doesn't have the flame of corruption, and doesn't need the headband anymore... just like every other humanoid gear.
thank you sol badguy
Sol Badguy
Thank you Sol Badguy❤
Love to see Sol clearing misconceptions about himself
Appreciate the love Guilty Gearers! Make sure to BAHNDIT BRINGA on over to that like button! Or else Sin gets another concussion!!
"Let that someone... be... ME" was so passionately delivered
So Pot is already lore accurate
Cause everyone who plays him is already screaming to themselves "just got get in. I have to get in. Get pot Bustered. Gotta get the Potemkin Buster. Need dopamine. I don't have an addiction you do now let me get in"

6:31 "she stinks, she stinks good" Gekko my man I hoped you touched grass after that line
12:22 that would make him a comfortable mid tier-
"Ky Kiske, Father of Sin." sounds like a badass title ngl
to be fair, slayer is already lore accurate.
I mean he can blow up a fucking continent in lore
Happy chaos gonna be trolling the cast more than he already does 💀
9:37 "AND LET THAT SOMEONE, BE ME"
Finally. A game with only 5-5 match--ups.
And Slayer.
As a Slayer main, I approve this
7:30 ok but if she throws Sin there is a tiny, absolutely MINISCULE chance, like not even a percent, that they recite the last bunch of lines from Ultrakill's secret existential crisis visual novel level called "all imperfect love song", causing Sin to win the entire set by the end of it.

Onigiri Install would go so unfathomably hard.
Nearly as hard as Johnny dying from gambling withdrawals.

Bloodsucking Universe just fucking kills nago/slayer
they tried that before, with a character from BlazBlue. said character is more hindered by having the other half then helped.

6:54
HOLY SHIT, LEGENDARY FIXER ANJI THE BLUE SPIN, LETS GOOO
Have all slayers normal attacks just him dancing with Sharron, and you get hit by their dance moves
11:16 everything about this is so awesome, i love my autistic little asphalt :3
"He kills you"
Nah I completely agree
10:13 Oh god please no
10:23 Hold on, he’s cooking
Never was so early. Great vid
Same here
Finally, usable Johnny
slayer would be a beast, happy chaos too and asuka , gg gekk and have a great day everyone

Okay, but like actually though: why can't Sin get a bottle of sugar water from his food pull, though? It could just, like, increase his movement speed or something, I dunno, but he literally has a move that makes perfect sense to give him sugar water.
One of his eats already increases his movement speed. Forgot which one though, because the move is SO FUCKING USELESS, DAMMIT DAISUKE, BUFF MY BOY.
Sugar water should give him every food buff at once
1:02 GekkoSquirrel: "Sol no longer has access to his gay powers"
HUH?!!
Sol is no longer woke
That was a surprisingly good evil laugh
You made this bridget main very happy
If Johnny has a 25% chance of dying when throwing a card, and I have to throw a card every 30 seconds, I’m still not dropping my boy.
I’m just leaning till I die
aria install is crazy
Well, Slayers damage is pretty lore accurate
Very fun video, thanks a lot!
I can just imagine your neigbours calling the cops when they heard you record the Slayer part
Gekko into Vore confirmed. Wants Gio to straight be Pickle from Baki.
Reminder that the lore says slayer doesnt take his fights seriously.
So literally make his heakth his patience
His health is big, but it's constantly ticking down like a slower bloodrage. That way, slayer HAS to kill you fast instead of just... doing it anyway
"I am going to make a video about Guilty Gear lore accuracy"
*10 seconds in* "Sol is literally setting his hand on fire because he is a gear"
bro your magic?
Aaaaaaaa 0:56 he IS still a gear aaaaaaaa he just lost the flame of corruption dumb dumb
what, bruh
Basically, he's still superhuman, just not boosted as much as before
actually the dragon install is binded to the flame of corruption and the scales of juno
asuka removed the flame from sol at the end of strive which made him lose the dragon install
hes still a gear
When Goldlewis does his overdrive it should be the USA space capsule from American Dad that has truck nuts and plays Motley Crue "Kickstart My Heart".
0:20 “theres just one problem though!!!!” *shows aba and slayer
Need a Leo Victory Screen where he does the 1000 yard stare from his Crusade PTSD
ah, so this is what you meant when you said "i just think about this fucking lore all the time"
when slayer or nago uses bloodsucking universe, the opponent character has a 50/50 chance of turning into either slayer or nagoriuki. forever.
Or the person it's used on has a chance to be forced into a blood rage with a bigger debuff on damage taken for the rest of the match (to represent them being newly turned into a vampire)
@@nepspartan-7597 or, or, hear me out, the opponent PLAYER turns into a vampire and gets blood rage

Onigiri Install you really had to leak ArcSys’s plans like that
As a Testament player, i can agree to those changes.
That's not Gabriel screaming at Potemkin, that is an MRI of the brain of a Potemkin main
honestly the idea of axls hit animations being that way is sick. reminds me of xrd slayers
I got reminded of Rachel Alucard who does a very similar thing by having her familiars get hit instead.
I actually love the idea to completely remake Testament's moveset.
Honestly happy choas should have a ultimate that he makes a bunch of clones and the real wakes up behind the opponent and shot them as well as the clones
This is my first fighting game. Didn't think I would enjoy the genre that much even though I like platform fighters but man this game is just eye candy and its fun as FUCK
Gekko wants to turn Axl into sans...
More like Rachel Alucard
"Let's go gambling!"
I mean the version of Sol that is playable is the one where he still has the Flame of corruption
6:23 A man of taste, I see
10:44 basically just an Insta kill but the map in happens disappears until you exit and enter again
You main elphelt for the strong rekka.
I main her foe her constant tapping i love.
WE are not the same
6:16, so good, add it NOW
I agree with the Happy Chaos statement. He’s just a silly guy but the most amount of silly you get to see is from Faust’s super or his round end
I think this video made me a comfortable mid-tier
According to Daisuke, Sol is still a Gear but regressing back to a human after the Flame of Corruption had been removed from him. The anime might possibly retcon this if Daisuke goes back on his decision, but we will never know-though given it is an after-story to Strive, safe bets Sol might fully be human in it when fighting Unika.
The games are lore accurate. Its where the lore lives
This video got off the rails fast
Slayer should make you instantly win the match if you so much as hover over him in character select. It's the only way to achieve Daisuke's vision.
the pot one is just the voices in the head of every pot player though
what is the song used in 7:47? Gotta slap that in the playlist of unassorted music to listen to
I'm pretty sure it's a song from one of the persona games. Can't remember which one though.
Traumerei from Persona 4, the game has lots of banger tracks
If I was in strive, I'm finding Giovanna and moving to the woods with her and actively trying to be hers.
I think Leo's mechanic properly represents his death wish so he stops having to live with survivor's guilt
2:34 so turn Axl into Sans?
1:00 Jacko is also human btw IE,Broken Halo so no Immortal backshots
the elphelt one is funny becaus there actually is TWO characters in guilty gear that YAP during the match and it is Answer and ABA
Slayer let's Sharon get guilty on gears for a minute and they start striving.
This video is a 2XKO video according to youtube
10:36
Asuka nuked japan. Thats the oppenheimer moment. He used justice. Thats the seeing a gear.
Ok honestly I'd love to see baiken just be a angry mom to people, especially Delilah
The Town Inside Me was Birmingham all along.
I ghost wrote the gio segment
To make it actually balanced about ram’s love for burgers when Faust pulls out a random item with what could this be or its funnier counterparts instead of doughnuts it should instead be a burger
(Only a visual change)
Remember kids, he's not exaggerating, Johnny really is just that guy
Breadstick breaks down mid match from dysphoria
Goldlewis' "meter" should be renamed to feet
I fully agree with Giovanna's changes.
You made this entire video just because of slayer, didn't you...
slayer is lore accurate: never uses his full power
If Guilty Gear has taught me anything, it's that reflecting on immortality and your legacy makes you Horny As Hell, see Raven and I-No.
Apparently, Warhammer Eldars had it right, when nothing matters and life is pointless, might as well abuse pleasure to endure it.
Now, slayer and Sharon are both immortal and rich, and I do not want to see their dungeon
So Slayer remains unchanged, got it.
I would love to hear elphelt yapping through the match
