    Here we are, the big Visual Guide to Season 4 of Guilty Gear Strive! Dropped today along with Queen Dizzy, every characteri n the game has new changes to go through. Some are really big and completely change what the characters about, some are just nice little changes but we got timestamps for you so feel free to skip around for whatever makes sense for you (leave a like though!). Season 4 is certainly a wacky patch in a lot of ways, so get to learning it! ***PLEASE NOTE*** Full Patch notes are in the video description. Not every tiny numerical change is mentioned in the video cause its already over an hour long. For everything check those notes

    for Goldlewis, any Behemoth can be cancelled into another in the same direction.
    This means any circular motion that matches the direction of the current Behemoth, clockwise or counterclockwise.
    so you can cancel 862H into 248H into 624H, like they did in the Season 4 Balance Trailer.

    I do kinda wish these changes to Pot were made at the start of Strive. This is the first traditional 2D fighter I've played seriously and spent over 70 hours in training before I really played the game. Most of that time was spent getting consistent with Karas. Good for accessibility. Bad for those who loved the high execution barrier.

    So Elphelts bomb, since Roof didn't really explain that much at all, can be detonaited only by attacks from shots or other bombs. You can either use HS, Here you go and it's follow ups, S and HS shots, bomb chocolat or even a throw since it's placing a bomb on the opponent. Basically the moment you place bombnniere everything becomes a mix up for you. Another important note the enemy can block the explosion if you don't detonate it manually.

    Some things i additionaly found out about Sin:
    - DP follow up attack launches higher, meaning you can combo off it into say close S
    - crouching HS > 214S > dash cancel : close S doesnt combo after dash cancel, have to use crouch K
    - The solo dash cancel doesnt low profile (at least with Ky stun edge)
    Hope this info helps

    As a ram player on PC, I appreciate simplifying the rekka motion controls. And the dash cancel on the second hit was rarely used anyways and it was very difficult (for me at least) to do, I coundn't care less about that change. Now let's go out there and throw both swords in neutral and explode.

    Gotta see how the matches go for Pot before I can say anything. In theory, I can kind of understand why they removed the kara stuff. For optimal damage, Pot became an execution heavy combo character that just happened to have a command throw and everyone played him that way. It got to the point where everyone was using the threat of potbuster more than potbuster. I would guess Arcsys didn't want that.

Considering my favorites, I see this new season as an absolute win. Thank you for the amazing video!

    • @_Deez
      @_Deez Годину тому +1

      Testament's throw buff is a VERY mixed bag. Sounds great on paper until you realize that just one normal into Grave Reaper into crow is enough to make stained throw wall stick, forcing you to reset to neutral when you previously had a very advantageous position for Testament.
      It basically forces you to not use throw during stained corner pressure unless the wall break will kill, or you have super to HKD them. Giving us an option to control the special effect of our throw like Baiken would be ideal.

    im really struggling to find any use for the changes given to millia, jd air dash height is nearly identical and jd airdash is a weak string in pressure, and the air backdash early cancel is so niche for mix and just not threatening in neutral at all. kapel needed to be shot but it got shot so hard that it’s minus on hit with spacings that don’t allow you to land an air normal (so in cases like turbofall kapel cross up in the corner which is a 30f mixup that’s throwable on block, millia just loses even if the opponent fails to react to 30 frames). All that millia got from this patch is nerfed too hard kapel and with how the health changes panned out she now has the lowest hp in the game

    You completely over and underestimate Jackos changes.
    Her 2D nerf is huge. No longer can she get a real okizeme out of a simple 2D. I legit cannot play Jacko properly anymore. I think im dropping jacko and all it took was nerfing her 2D like this.
    Her dash cancel can work but can also get her into getting hit. So it needs to be used well. She actually could do this before. If she held a minion, soccer kick into drop minion lets you do a very similar if not a better dash than this new one.
    The new playstyle that I created with this new Jacko is a very exhausting zoner play style where I use the kick dashes to move under someones jump and stay mobile. I was zone jacko before but now Im always zoning. More rarely do I get confident CQC moment. I used to have consistent Bomb setups but those are gone now due to the 2D nerf.
    For me, Jack-O got butchered. And Im trying to figure out how exactly they want jacko to be played. Looking at past changes, this new nerf does not make much sense to me. Its as if shes not allowed to get a setup after a knockdown, she is now about creating approaches and infinite blockstrings when she can, and those 2 things are not easy to do (or learn) especially in comparison to other characters and their approaches and "infinites".
