Queen Dizzy got her trailer and they ain't calling her Queen for nothing! Lots of fun gameplay here, and also the fact(as talked about later in the vid) she seems to be fully mature and in control of Necro & Undine is pretty cool character growth. She doesn't seem as fully re-invented as some other classic characters, but there's certainly some new stuff like BORROWING FROM JUSTICE'S MOVESET. Gonna be some fun times
@@rooflemonger "awful" is definitely a way to put it. The changes as someone who likes the game and can view it in a competitive light, I can see the changes to Sparking and to each character to be pretty cool and fun, and gives every character some extra viability, while also being very insane and doing things Arcsys probably wouldn't. And let's be honest, it's been over 6 years since DBFZ released, I think it's absolutely fine for patches to go nuts.
Didn't go over every single change shown in the little balance preview cause well, this is the Dizzy video lol. If i did then it would be like 80% of the vid and not the dizzy vid anymore. When the time comes ill do the full breakdown no worries, should be interesting.
Roofle I’m surprised you didn’t point it out but when the ice is on the floor, dizzy has more forward momentum when she does moves. Check the clip again before the throw, she slid the whole team doing that move while he was in blockstun! Keep fighting the good fight 🫡
I am curious if her pals being not as colorful as they were is a sign that maybe she has gained some control over them. That she can actually do something for herself as opposed to be the one that has to watch the fights play out in brutal fashion. Hell, the fact she is joining them in the attack as opposed to tackling one of her wings to stop them from nuking the opponent is pretty significant.
Dizzy has matured, now she has the spotlight. Their designs were changed to reflect that, now they compliment Dizzy’s design. Dizzy is strong enough to not need them to protect her anymore so instead of bickering while defending her and going overboard Dizzy is setting the pace and they help her as she needs. During the OD especially, she started the attack and Necro and Undine joined in
I am a +R Dizzy player who has been waiting for this character from day one. I have already watched the trailer a couple times trying to learn whatever I can. Looking at her normals the big axe swing is clearly Xrd 2H, the Narwhal is probably Xrd 6H overhead, the close range icicle hit is likely c.5S and the multi hitting move that freezes is probably +R f.5S/Xrd 4S. Notably we didn't see her go airborne outside of her Dust combo, which is weird since having a double airdash is one of her defining traits in older games. If they removed her traditional air mobility I expect the replacement has something to do with her wings, or it could be something like what Gio has with the tension meter. Another factor of her strength in older games is that fish takes the hit for you if you are close to it, which they also didn't show, though I assume that is still intact. Being able to freeze people and go into a restand mixup/setup is almost always super strong, so I am looking forwards to that. On the other hand sword is cool, but they only showed it as a combo ender, which makes me wonder how useful it will actually be, because if it only works as a combo ender then ending with a move that freezes is probably better. At least being able to freeze people means Gamma Ray may finally be useful in a real match and not just a gimmick that costs all your meter. Lastly we can't tell if dagger has homing properties from this trailer since she only uses it at close range.
I knew Arcsys would re-introduce more and more wild stuff as time goes - and here we are. Also in terms of visuals GG is just in another league - not that the other offerings look bad or anything but just the amount of effort put in each character appearance is insane.
Love Dizzy as a character, I absolutely hate playing against her already and that's with xrd mechanics, not looking forward to strive dizzy. It will be very funny to see all the slayer players coasting by get absolutely fried though. And I'm happy for dizzy fans!
She looks pretty Cool. The animations are beautiful. I think we got a new Character dropping in Grand Blue Fantasy Vs the same day so it'll be a fun night. I'll be Throwing Candy out the front Door at Trick or Treaters in the middle of my Fights. 😆
I dunno if im tweaking, buy i SWEAR when the floor becomes ice Dizzy is Sliding on the ice allowing her to confirm short normals from mid range ...some check me plz
4:24, As a lifelong Sub-Zero main that statement hurts my soul, you're not wrong though. I blame Bi-Han being inferior to Hanzo in every way, bring back Hanzo Sub-Zero NetherRealm! In the meantime I welcome our new ice queen with open arms.
Strive got a 50% discount on Steam right now, is it worth buying? Basically been a Street Fighter and Smash main for years and never really tried any other fighting game franchises, but I'm willing to change that. I don't play that much online, so I don't really mind that I'm too late to the party when it comes to the online meta. Is it worth it for 20 bucks? How is the singleplayer content in this game?
The single player content is serviceable, other then arcade and survival mode the "only" other thing you get are the mission which are fantastic, probably the best tutorial out there and some of them are really challenging and dive into very deep mechanics (Kara cancels and Roman cancel cancel). Oh and story mode which are just cutscene but really cool. Online play is very good, net code is very consistent and the tower sistem although a bit strange and frustrating if you want to reach celestial, really allows you to match against people of your level. (Also the discord has many tournaments but that's outside the game.) For the gameplay by itself, it's different from other gulty gears (every "big" guilty gear is different from each other) and in this one we have very cool combination of street fighter mixed with core of guilty gear (bursts, roman cancels, gatling combinations, tension ecc). The game is fast and very frenetic, even zoner get in to throw hands. Also, like other anime fgs, the character have some type of very specific gimmicks like bars or item throws or statuses, Immagine something like Jamie drinks but much more explored. There are simple ones like KY and testament (KY is pretty much the ryu/ken of gg), nago, sin and Gold Lewis for example are a bit more complicated... And then you have characters like bedman and especially Asuka that play on another plane of existence (Asuka being the most unique characters ever, basically play mtg). Also music and visual are 10/10,no debate. Overall, I'd say I'm very satisfied with strive and I think you will find yourself a kind of second home coming from street fighter. Meaby the only problem is the kind of lack single player content.
beautiful. She reminds me so much of hotaru futaba and I love the developers are giving the character treatment she deserves going forward also kira hit it for voicing dizzy cuz it literally almost sounds like suzie yeung voicing hotaru for cotw though i still hoping to see hotaru in kofxv
Welcome almighty Queen Dizzy, but in base of her trailer, she use in the majority the Ice Powers, almost dont use the fire version, only need to wait for the Character Guide, Roof.
Yo Testament is a grappler now! Dizzy is cool but i need good buffs to low tiers. Game got a bit stale when the top tiers and low tiers stayed mostly the same
Is it wrong that my first thought was that episode of Smiling Friends where they’re at a Halloween Party, and the one dude is like, “Is that Black Face?!”
I want to see my boy get the strong big boy buffs that allow him to be the biggest and bestest of boys. Potemkin is going to need them buffs (like armored Pot Bust) if he is to destroy his competition :3
Man I would love to hop on Dizzy right when she comes out but thats when the Monster Hunter Beta starts 😭😭 I know having TOO many games to play is a good problem to have, but man its all when my work responsibilities are coming up too 😟 its gonna be a long winter
Baiken being positive after parrying a far melee attack just makes me so happy. I always felt like that needed more of a benefit for her: you already called out the move, so it just being neutral didn't sit right with me. Now I can steal even more turns.
Gotta say, not a fan of the new wings. Just a lot less interesting, washed out looking and the character identity of her wings as individual characters feels gone.

She had Michael's Sword in Accent Core, specifically her EX verison!
I know you aren't super into Granblue but I was wondering if you'd cover Vikala at some point? She comes out like... tomorrow or the day after.
They let the dbfz update people work on this patch
the DBFZ update people are not arcsys, the reason why DBFZ has been so awful lately is cause bandai namco took over everything is my understanding.
yup
Good

Sorry, Chipp can do WHAT now? Wtf ... I've been out of the Strive loop, apparently 😵🤯
will be new as of the upcoming patch
I saw that move and bugged out. His mixup is gonna be INSANE
Armor pot buster?
You convinced me to play again.

@@matmil5 FREEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEESIAH!
The character developemt in her super gave me chills, can't wait to learn more in Arcade mode!!
I love the character development of basically every returning character in Strive.
The design and animation quality of Strive always blew me away.
The ice pillar seems to make the stage slippery, at 6:00 you can see she starts up her fire move but stays in motion for a bit.
STILL WAITING FOR JAM
maybe 2026 cause the full roster is up.
yess and Answer
6:26
"Easy on my son..."
Necro: TOUGH LOVE... *TECH THE THROW!*
you forgot to mention this but the ice floor seems to also reduce friction for both characters as you can see dizzy sliding in for her attacks kinda!
That seems very interesting indeed

Dizzy is always cool. I was just so overwhelmed to learn here
The moment I saw the trailers, I started camping your channel waiting for this!
Okay, Queen Dizzy's cool, but honestly the armored Pot Buster is what stood out to me the most from the GGST showcase! XD
THE CHARACTER DEVELOPMENT IS SO PEAK!!!
I still dont understand why this isnt the number one fighting game.
its the most successful Guilty Gear ever and outsold the previous game 15 times over. They are doing alright for themselves.
Baiken's Bahonkas aren't big enough, that's why
First learned Faust can golf his afro and tbh, this is gonna be such a funny update
I knew Arcsys would re-introduce more and more wild stuff as time goes - and here we are.
Also in terms of visuals GG is just in another league - not that the other offerings look bad or anything
but just the amount of effort put in each character appearance is insane.
It seems like the Ice floor reduces friction and/or pushback.
I think they're losing their colour because she's stopped rejecting them, they're her too, and they're finally joining her
I LOVE MICHAEL SWORD!!!
Yeah dizzy dropping at Halloween sounds right. She is terrifying 😳
I’m so fucking happy Michael Blade is back. 86years of Susano’o weren’t for nothing.
A confident dizzy?!😭
I would rather fight goku black

I would have been very happy if Granblue Fantasy Versus had this kind of relevance, unfortunately that game is dead now
Fantastic breakdown.
Awesome trailer and addition 🎉 but I wonder if Jam and Answer will ever come to Strive 😢
Jam is coming if they make a Season Pass 5,but Answer would take like Season Pass 6 or something ludicrous
Damn ! armored pot buster😂
She looks pretty Cool. The animations are beautiful. I think we got a new Character dropping in Grand Blue Fantasy Vs the same day so it'll be a fun night. I'll be Throwing Candy out the front Door at Trick or Treaters in the middle of my Fights. 😆

Queen Dizzy AKA modern Donovan. Love it!
MILF Dizzy has arrived
Cool dizzy , I am back to this game on October 31
There's only 1 man I know that can stretch 1:30 into almost 10 mins. Also HOLY MOLY YOU CAN COMBO GRABS NOW?!? JOHNNY STOCKS JUST WENT UP 300%
It's the family kamehameha ala broly fight 2.

Dizzy looks so lovely! I kinda stopped playing fighting games but I'm glad GG is still chugging along. Thanks for the vid!

To be fair, the Michael Blade is the super version of Michael Sword. Appreciate the asterisk though!

Dizzy 😍😍😍
I hope more of the bad characters get uplifted by this patch, because strive's balance got kind of ridiculous
We need instant kill
its a bit late in the game for that. Maybe whatever they are working on next (cause they are def working on something)
I’m still of the opinion that Maximilian Dude will get more from the views on a “Rate the IK” video then ArcSys will get from making them.
You got this out Fast!! Fantastic! I finally got the Game (with a little help from you for my Drunk a$$ lol) I'm going to watch the video now. 🙂👍
