Hey all! Hope you guys enjoyed the video. There was some confusion on what patches the special move showcased were from. If I did not specify if the move was from "on the game's release" and "during season 2," then it was current patch. On the game's release: patch 1.3 Season 2: Patch 2.0 Current patch: 2.85
Try DNFduel, every character in that god forsaken game is broken (Imagine Nagoriyuki had a kid with Happy Chaos from ggst, but infinite blood rage and no health drain, that’s every character in DNFduel)
I haven’t played this game since Zooey came out, but it’s cool as hell seeing all the wacky stuff they added, makes me wish I played more. But this game does have a special place in my heart and I’m very excited for rising
I can’t gaslight my friends to convince them that percy is an honest mid tier and that they’re just ‘salty’ anymore after you released this video. It’s done me a great disservice. Real talk, amazing and informative video, thank you for making it!
really loved this trip down memory road merp i was there for the start of granblue and still am here cant wait for rising and love watching your vids even more in the future the more they come out :D
This is pretty well balanced for an arcsys fighter. If the game is based on footsies there has to be kusoge in the mix and knowledge checks to keep the game interesting.
Merp jumpscare!! Just yesterday i re-discovered this channel and watched a bit so this is pretty fun timing lol I'll def keep an eye on ur streams, gl with your future prospects!
Ferry is a completely honest character Good video Merp, didn't play the game a release so it was fun to see some of the warcrimes that were in this game
but yeah, Belial and Ferry were the sf4 Yun and Yang of this game. if you ever thought about fighting someone in tournament and you saw they had either of these characters, make sure you packed some Tylenol, their a headache
I played Ferry in the latest patch of GBVS. I had no idea she had committed war crimes in the past and was wondering why her anti airs felt like shit now. Now I know. Feels like she's still paying for her past sins in Rising, but I'm still going to play her.
Good stuff Merp, fun video, and peak usage of character themes, this game went through some goddamn nonsense, though I didn't recall Soriz having such combo issues at launch, I remember seeing tons of nonsense combos with him Ferry and Ladiva were.... Ladiva rules and something you didn't mention is that she has a strike-throw mix in her Super, so you can't even win against the threat of her grabs and super by jumping, she could just hit you with the strike version of the super if she caught you trying to jump her command grabs Ferry was "What if Axl was stupidly good" and just disgusting
Damn, u really talked about release gran without saying anything about boot. The top 4 in s1 (gran, kat, ferry and lance) were fkin wild. Mostly on the same level as each other, but totally separate from everyone else
Just a little pointer from a vaseraga main on release vaseraga would 180 if you jumped past him while he was marching when he did an attack, and I think it's safe to say that even to this day vaseraga's only real down side is his shit frame data so many characters can punish things normally that vaseraga can't so I'd say when he's armored he's amazing but when he's not he's pretty shit. But I still love the dude even if he can't 180 no scope people out of the air anymore.
Some of these design decisions baffle me but it's great to see they cared enough to change, fix, tweak and balance the game to a more balanced state. Gotta admire the dedication.
Season 1 on release soriz was godawful it honestly amazing that I wanted to make him work thanks God that not perfect but he is far better than he was back in season 1
Its wild looking back at Tactical Rush being this weird alpha counter/extender and then seeing SF6 just go "Actually that was kinda cool" and give us Drive Rush
Love how the video states that the game is and was always busted, and then spends like 90% of the video going, "This was so bad on release until it got patched.".
love this video already, but is there any way you can add a small icon or something to indicate what is still in the final version of the game and what was patched out?
Seeing that tier list from the Djeeta section made me really sad. I haven't touched this game since Zooey's release but when I did play it Ladiva and Soriz were the two I enjoyed the most.
ArcSys after creating Nine for BBCF: Man we created such a toxic zoner, we should never do that again A CyGames employee who really liked Ferry: You should do that again ArcSys: Let’s do that again
This video bot excited me and scared me for the release of Rising, I really hope things are balanced properly when it comes out as I would like the game to have a long life and a large playerbase. Either way, it's going to be my second ever fighting game and I'm ready to get destroyed!
I know I'm late but, you forgot to mention Ladiva's lariat or anti air throw used to be able to combo into far M xx ex lariet or something along those lines. (i forgot which one, i just remember they nerfed it soon after though)
I need the squeakuel... I just picked up GBFV on sale this year and I've had to hold off on buying all the DLC because it just makes sense to blow my wallet on the new version instead.
Thank you Someone who highlights why this game is actually broken. Especially that percival section. Ive talked to ppl who said he's honest. Like wtf no. A char that literally does anything and gets anything isnt honest. Djeeta was my only saving grace for this game but slowly dropped it that Im casual in it now. Hopefully rising puts Ilsa Monika and Sandalphon so I have chars I like outside of Djeeta to play. Never really liked the current cast of chars.
13:55 ah yes the button that completley deleated any chance of my favourite character in the game ever getting any meaningfull changes. Still paying for warcrimes to this day.
You put to install the game and start without update, the online services will not work but you cam use the training mode to see all the caracters before nerfs
It was pretty fucked up to give a zoner a faster EX DP than a charge character. Like, the whole point of a charge character is that they have to spend time prepping their moves so they are supposed to come out and recover faster to make up for it. And that's why I say charge characters are bad design.
Nah~ To be honest he really reminds me a lot of Lambda from Blazblue. The dash and gameplan is weirdly similar despite one being a zoner and the other being Lamb
Nah tbh, actually I don't think people will give you shit for playing this games top tiers. Don't know if that's cause of the game itself or cause of the community
None of this stuff is really "broken". Just strong options for each character. "Broken" is reserved for shit like basketball combos in Fist of the North Star, Adachi's B Ziodyne in BBTAG, Bayonetta in Smash 4, Phoenix in UMvC3 and stuff like that. Not just strong but game breaking moves, mechanics or characters. Granblue doesn't have any of that really.
As a Yuel main, I know fully well how broken (in a bad way) her moveset is. her 214 is very trash. Her JH and JM can be crushed with lights. Her Ju doesn't do shit against dp and when it does get hit/blocked, it's always to Yuel's disadvantage.
I'm too shit to care if the games are broken. I just like doing an arcade run, mash some fuckers up and leave it for months. I'm a habitual game hopper, never on one game long enough to notice broke shit. Probs got around 30 fighters, so games like this are brilliant for me to just swap between.

On the game's release: patch 1.3

Current patch: 2.85

Broken is bravery pocket
20:41 "There are only 2 characters that can punish it on block, Belial and Belial." 😅
I haven’t played this game since Zooey came out, but it’s cool as hell seeing all the wacky stuff they added, makes me wish I played more. But this game does have a special place in my heart and I’m very excited for rising
"There are only two characters who can punish it. Belial, and The Cooler Belial."
If everything is broken, nothing is broken
Pure wisdom
should have included syndrome's laugh in the comment.
That is not the motto of this game. You want that go to dnf duel.
ye
the dumbest phrase i read far to often^^
I can’t gaslight my friends to convince them that percy is an honest mid tier and that they’re just ‘salty’ anymore after you released this video. It’s done me a great disservice.
Real talk, amazing and informative video, thank you for making it!
"honest ground based neutral fundamentals focused" characters when they convert for 1/3rd of your health from a more than half screen poke
It's funny how he goes quite in deep with other characters, but with Metera is just this small shot that although plain is apparently really broken 😂
That's all she has.
Can’t wait for the next version of this in 4 years when launch Nier takes half the runtime.
really loved this trip down memory road merp i was there for the start of granblue and still am here cant wait for rising and love watching your vids even more in the future the more they come out :D
24:46 if only this guy knew the nightmare of a lamb that would come at GBFVR's release,
This is pretty well balanced for an arcsys fighter. If the game is based on footsies there has to be kusoge in the mix and knowledge checks to keep the game interesting.
Oh so the reason why Ferry's theme is so sad is because that's what playing at her opponent's funeral
Merp jumpscare!!
Just yesterday i re-discovered this channel and watched a bit so this is pretty fun timing lol
I'll def keep an eye on ur streams, gl with your future prospects!
Back when Granblue was an Anime Fighter 😔😔
...is it not anymore?
can't believe they removed the fighter and added the fall guys 😭
Bruh, I got PTSD from watching this video but Also made me really hype for Rising. Those new mechanics are gonna be something for sure. Sick video.
Ferry is a completely honest character
Good video Merp, didn't play the game a release so it was fun to see some of the warcrimes that were in this game
but yeah, Belial and Ferry were the sf4 Yun and Yang of this game. if you ever thought about fighting someone in tournament and you saw they had either of these characters, make sure you packed some Tylenol, their a headache
I played Ferry in the latest patch of GBVS. I had no idea she had committed war crimes in the past and was wondering why her anti airs felt like shit now. Now I know. Feels like she's still paying for her past sins in Rising, but I'm still going to play her.
Great video! I really love the Rabi Ribi music used at the end
I was a ladiva main at launch her damage was insane
Good stuff Merp, fun video, and peak usage of character themes, this game went through some goddamn nonsense, though I didn't recall Soriz having such combo issues at launch, I remember seeing tons of nonsense combos with him
Ferry and Ladiva were.... Ladiva rules and something you didn't mention is that she has a strike-throw mix in her Super, so you can't even win against the threat of her grabs and super by jumping, she could just hit you with the strike version of the super if she caught you trying to jump her command grabs
Ferry was "What if Axl was stupidly good" and just disgusting
Actually really interesting, I remember early on people were largely memeing with boot but actually seeing everything is fascinating.
Damn, u really talked about release gran without saying anything about boot. The top 4 in s1 (gran, kat, ferry and lance) were fkin wild. Mostly on the same level as each other, but totally separate from everyone else
Just a little pointer from a vaseraga main on release vaseraga would 180 if you jumped past him while he was marching when he did an attack, and I think it's safe to say that even to this day vaseraga's only real down side is his shit frame data so many characters can punish things normally that vaseraga can't so I'd say when he's armored he's amazing but when he's not he's pretty shit. But I still love the dude even if he can't 180 no scope people out of the air anymore.
this game looks so sick. can't wait for rising to come out so i can finally give it a shot
Fun to watch this after mostly playing the game on release but being really excited for rising to come out after playing the open beta
Some of these design decisions baffle me but it's great to see they cared enough to change, fix, tweak and balance the game to a more balanced state.
Gotta admire the dedication.
Season 1 on release soriz was godawful it honestly amazing that I wanted to make him work thanks God that not perfect but he is far better than he was back in season 1
Coming from Anime fighters to GB like "you have a block button and everyone is so slow and has like no options. how is anyone getting opened up?
Moment of silence for everyone one who lost a round to 19:12 🙏
I’d give anything to have been a Granblue player when Belial first came out.
Its wild looking back at Tactical Rush being this weird alpha counter/extender and then seeing SF6 just go "Actually that was kinda cool" and give us Drive Rush
If nothing else this game's ost is freaking top tier
Nah i think belial is just straight up unfair. You can combo his already strong counter into the command grab and into a combi that ends with a ulti
hey the footsies work pretty well!
Eustace with the Bison's Psycho Mine playstyle lol.
Love how the video states that the game is and was always busted, and then spends like 90% of the video going, "This was so bad on release until it got patched.".
love this video already, but is there any way you can add a small icon or something to indicate what is still in the final version of the game and what was patched out?
Every time this man drops a video its like im 12 and I just got a new game for my birthday
I appreciate the history lesson. There was a lot I learned watching this.
No wonder I liked Belial and got shish kabobed by Percival so much.
babe wakeup new merp video
Seeing that tier list from the Djeeta section made me really sad. I haven't touched this game since Zooey's release but when I did play it Ladiva and Soriz were the two I enjoyed the most.
ArcSys after creating Nine for BBCF:
Man we created such a toxic zoner, we should never do that again
A CyGames employee who really liked Ferry:
You should do that again
ArcSys: Let’s do that again
Then they did that further by making Nine and Kokonoe on crack with Asuka
I dont even play fighting games yet i still get excited everytime he uploads
good video, can very much learn from
Nier sends her regards
This video bot excited me and scared me for the release of Rising, I really hope things are balanced properly when it comes out as I would like the game to have a long life and a large playerbase.
Either way, it's going to be my second ever fighting game and I'm ready to get destroyed!
Season 1 GBVS was so fun I miss the thrill of beating Ferry or Lancelot with Ladiva. I hope they buff her in the new game!
Ngl... I had truly buried the memory of Season 1 Ferry... Thanks for reawakening my trauma!
I really appreciate vids like this I love me some granblue so its always great to learn more about games I love
Release Belial made me literally quit this game
alright, this game seemed kind of dry on release but now I want to play it again
I remember when Maximilian Dood rated Hinrichten "Nope/10"
Huge contrast with it being the most broken SBA
More than 66H, I expected to see release Lance jU mentioned lol
this made me wanna try granblue
If a fighting game doesn't have broken stuff, im not playing. This is an indicator that i should get this game
All I remembered about this game before watching this video was that sonicfox played ferry on release
And lo and behold here we are
As someone who plays Ferry, but never played during season 1... I missed the golden age wow
Yggy is a VERY Lowain Super though...
Getting bailed out by someone way stronger than he is.
Whoever would say something like Granblue is perfect, doesn’t deserve to be listened to in the first place. Lmao
"Let me show you whats broken about every character" *proceeds to just do a moveset video* 🤣
Looks pretty balanced.
Never knew about the game this video made me install it i love the characters👍👍
I know I'm late but, you forgot to mention Ladiva's lariat or anti air throw used to be able to combo into far M xx ex lariet or something along those lines. (i forgot which one, i just remember they nerfed it soon after though)
it is broken yet we love it... I loss the love for the browser game though.
I need the squeakuel... I just picked up GBFV on sale this year and I've had to hold off on buying all the DLC because it just makes sense to blow my wallet on the new version instead.
I get worried when I didn't see the whip girl I remember that unit has a fckng range 😂
Finally a new video :D (that i seen)
Thank you
Someone who highlights why this game is actually broken. Especially that percival section. Ive talked to ppl who said he's honest. Like wtf no. A char that literally does anything and gets anything isnt honest. Djeeta was my only saving grace for this game but slowly dropped it that Im casual in it now. Hopefully rising puts Ilsa Monika and Sandalphon so I have chars I like outside of Djeeta to play. Never really liked the current cast of chars.
13:55 ah yes the button that completley deleated any chance of my favourite character in the game ever getting any meaningfull changes. Still paying for warcrimes to this day.
Yeah Im subbing after the mexican flag bit Lmao.
Loved this video! Thank you for making it!
The Vira one makes me so happy
Also Ferry is so sick, I love her
great vid, btw how did you get pre-nerfed version of belial this late in the game though?
You put to install the game and start without update, the online services will not work but you cam use the training mode to see all the caracters before nerfs
Love the Rabi-Ribi music.
Man Rising can't come soon enough, for how broken it might be it a really great game
It was pretty fucked up to give a zoner a faster EX DP than a charge character. Like, the whole point of a charge character is that they have to spend time prepping their moves so they are supposed to come out and recover faster to make up for it. And that's why I say charge characters are bad design.
To me it's kinda balanced when everyone is broken² and fun.
²Except maybe Soriz
Quick question: am I gonna get bullied for playing Percival if I chose to main him because he looked the coolest, before knowing he was a top tier?
Nah~ To be honest he really reminds me a lot of Lambda from Blazblue. The dash and gameplan is weirdly similar despite one being a zoner and the other being Lamb
Nah tbh, actually I don't think people will give you shit for playing this games top tiers. Don't know if that's cause of the game itself or cause of the community
@@captainmega6310 I would like to think it’s the community, giving them the benefit of a doubt here.
No some of those guys gets bullied because they pretend Percival is low tier.
What I learned from this video is that narmaya needs a buff ❤
Man I had blocked out a lot of trauma of playing Ferry on release lol
27:51 and then Nier happened
featuring my man UltVictory, lfg
I enjoyed the vtuber video can you do another like that I was drawn to the fact the people on discord were going wild it was hilarious man.
None of this stuff is really "broken". Just strong options for each character. "Broken" is reserved for shit like basketball combos in Fist of the North Star, Adachi's B Ziodyne in BBTAG, Bayonetta in Smash 4, Phoenix in UMvC3 and stuff like that. Not just strong but game breaking moves, mechanics or characters. Granblue doesn't have any of that really.
I don’t want to remember s1 ferry. Why would you do this to me?
I came back after a long hiatus and the first time I did Belial's j.U, my face went like this :c
Is that button even usable now?
YOHANE PROFILE PICTURE 22:03
does this game hasve a rekka guy like iori or kyo
Narmaya side bewb
Hopefully, the Rise version exposes this game to more ppl I genuinely think it deserves it
WAIT BOTH OF MY BOYS ARE TOP TIER NOW ??? I NEED TO REINSTALL THIS GAME
wait what? didn't Soriz EX dash punch used to wall bounce? i remember going online against Percival and always used this as a start
Nope, in fact i don't think it wall bounces in the current patch too, just launches them high enough for you to combo into standing light
Broken fighting games are the best fighting games. Best to play, best to spectate.
great vid
As a Yuel main, I know fully well how broken (in a bad way) her moveset is. her 214 is very trash. Her JH and JM can be crushed with lights. Her Ju doesn't do shit against dp and when it does get hit/blocked, it's always to Yuel's disadvantage.

Probs got around 30 fighters, so games like this are brilliant for me to just swap between.
Great video
2:41 Her!!???💀💀💀
they did not bring back s1 ferry :(
And still no percival makes it to quarter finals in tourneys smh.
