I can’t explain to you why but of all the characters on the roster, Faust was the one who caught my eye. He’s just so cool, I can’t exactly place my finger on it
I did not know about the tech with PRC out of super or manipulating Mix Gravity. Great guide. I also gotta say that after the buffs he's gotten overtime, we are well past the point where Faust is Laust. His kit is a thing of beauty now.
Thanks so much! :D I agree, he really is a complete piece now. And if they continue to buff everyone and add system mechanics, he'll only get even more zany the more thing his items can layer with. So excited to see what the future holds for em!
14:35 discovered this on my own and ever since when i see i have full meter i just try to put the enemy in the corner(optional) and then do this with a upper teleport because they cant see shit let alone faust falling from the sky

Great video, there are some techs here that I didn't know about. I'm kinda getting into Faust and there's a possibility I'll even switch main. Also I like the Crackhead Doctor man he's fun to play
So glad it showed you new stuff! Crackhead PHD incoming?? Def play him if you like em. Fun is king, and with the new season on the way I bet he'll get some even zanier stuff
Damn, this is a really high quality guide! Your production quality is really good and I hope your channel grows! Total side note, I find it strange that RNG is such a hated thing i fighting games, yet Faust is such a beloved charatcer. Not complaining, just observing.
Aww thank you so much! I really appreciate that a ton Its so true. I'm not sure why myself, maybe cause of his design? If I were to guess, and I wasnt playing around then just from what I've read/listened too, I'd guess because in the last ones he could only have one thing out at a time which maybe made its more contained in expectations? And now he's not strong so it's w/e Honestly probably tho it's just cause silly bag man LOL xD
@@NuggyJones My honest guess is due to the RNG mechanic being more subdued. It's a huge part of his kit don't get me wrong, but it's not inherently as strong from a first glace. Not to mention, a lot of items can also hurt Faust, so it's a risk/reward thing. If you look at Hero in Smash Ultimate (as much as I love the charatcer) there are some abilties with the RNG that can just wreck you instantly. Faust's stuff is a lot more subduded in comparison. But who knows, I also like rng mechanics and Zoners so I might just be the devil lmao.
Okey I WILL learn how to do reversal super fast and always at will. I just bought game and what to give a shot to Faust and motion input for his reversal super(wheelchair thing) is threatening If somebody is intrested I am currently on 3d floor. First I started playing I was on 5th with Nago, but something was wrong when I was playing him and I desided to switch to goofy doctor. Realy enjoy his mostly easy motion inputs and gameplay, but got streak of bad games while learning and... Got to floor 3 :)
GGST is where I started my fighting game journey. It's been three years since I started and it only gets easier. Just stick with it, keep practicing, and play with friends.
11:18 as far as you know, does this combo for the midair charged dust state still work? Ive been giving it a shot in training and can get dust -> heavy -> jump -> heavy, but then the second dust always seems to miss as the character is too far away.
@@MMOToaster the normal combo i use is (using xbox buttons cuz im too dumb to write it out the way u did) B, B, A (to bounce them back to the wall), immediately do right B and mix mix mix and that'll wallbreak idk if its more dmging but its what i do
This Game just came out for Xbox game pass about a month ago as well as BlazBlue Cross Tag Battle I played Blazeblue for about a month and 100% it so now I'm giving guilty gear a shot. I mained Teddie in BlazBlue he was my favorite by far and my best character. So going into guilty gear I wanted a character who was as close to Teddie as I can get and after trying couple diff character I got 2 this dude Faust and saw he has items too just like teddie in BlazBlue so I think this is who imma main for now atleast. He's pretty fun to play with. The two games are very different in speed and gameplay wise and there are some things I've seen in guilty gear that i wish was in BlazBlue and vice versa but if anyone can lmk if I picked the right character with Faust for what I'm looking for that would be awesome or if there's another character i dont know about that is more like Teddie somehow
Something else that I have found is when you throw hammer, space a bit closer and dust to launch the hammer at your opponent
OHHHH THATS LIT!! I knew reflecting opponents but didn't realize you could batter-up yourself. Dope dope
Makes me want to see 2 Fausts playing projectile tennis
Can you air dust to launch the hammer↘️
This feature exists in Xrd and I just discovered that two weeks ago.
@@i420xGamingyou might be able to, I have no idea though

I discovered the Mix Mix Mix ground bounce on another video and sort of got it working myself, but this was super helpful for consistency.
Wasn't expecting this quality based on the views. Keep it going!
Hey, thanks so much! :D I shall indeed
I know it's two years later, but this guide is well made! You've earned a subscriber!
what a coincidence, just recently started picking up Faust and found your channel yesterday with the Axl guide. great work!
What luck! So happy it could work out like that :D
And thank you, so glad it was of help ^ ^
holy, i did not know you could control half of these...i got me some more practicing to do
I love him! It's quite funny that you have to adapt to both the enemy and your own objects
14:35 discovered this on my own and ever since when i see i have full meter i just try to put the enemy in the corner(optional) and then do this with a upper teleport because they cant see shit let alone faust falling from the sky
You can also employ the top teleport as a way to avoid most supers without burning meter

Thank you for this video, I am super new to Guilty Gear Strive (and Guilty Gear in general) and suck at fighting games a lot

Nuggy refusing to say the word DiveKick
4:18 5S, 2S, 5H is as far as I can go, since 2S initiates a juggle is that right?
Because of that that it'd be better to just 5S,5S,5H, Toss. Right?

@@Zyodl thanks for the advice!
Very insightfuil!
Thanks! 😄
Love the pfp btw
I have no idea on fighting game terms
4:00 7:20
bro those stick movements confuse me
A character like Faust looks like he would be extremely annoying causing an opponent to make a bunch of mistakes that you can capitalize on.

All this and they hadn't even added Wild Assault!
wait, how??
How to which part?
