- My longest video yet. Really wanted to go wild with the effects for the montage parts, but that would of took me an extra week probably so I decided not to. Since Snake Eyez is the focus of this I'll put his twitch below.

Not really sure what's next. I might start doing SF6 "What to do against x" shorts next. Might branch out a little and play more SF6/Tekken 8. Maybe start streaming on this channel either making these videos or playing online. As for now I'm going to be playing Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth and then come back to this.
Also me and my friend started an Esports Organization and we host a monthly tournament with a $100 prize pool so you should join that and check us out here:

I mean, Snake Eyes is not just highest rated Potemkin player. He's a grappler monster. Does anyone remember his SF4 5vs5 team battle? You know, when he SOLO'ED the entire enemy team?
As Zangief?
Dude is a certified badass. If there's anyone who can make Potemkin look like an absolute beast, it has to be Snake
Not to take away from the man, but SF4 gief is genuinely pretty good from what I heard
@@Zman7981green hand my beloved
@@Zman7981 yeah, that was back when Gief was top tier. But SF4 in general was a hilariously busted game.
@Zman7981 huh, I actually didn't know that. I was always under the impression that in any SF game Zangief was low/bottom tier. Guess I was wrong
Then again, Gief is a grappler. And grappler in general is a very volatile archetype. And like you said, Gief being good doesn't belittle Snake's achievments. It was still him against the entire team. They, by definition, had luxury of counterpicking, prepping to their fight by watching him play and, obviously, losing a few matches. While Eyez had no such luxury
it was literally mentioned in this video o_o
In his streams, he would often talk bad about GG in general "except Pot", and that he would not touch the game after Street Fighter 6 comes out. I think that is pretty much what happened. I haven't seen him play pot since. Sad for us Pot mains.
I think he’s been streaming it a bit recently but he’s definitely not focusing on it
@@zlightlylesssnail1337 He's always been a gief main, can't blame him for that
Would love to see him play Pot in earlier GG games, these are some mad skills
New player here, why do people dislike GGST compared to other fighting games? Of course people have preferences, but I feel like it's a pretty cool fighting game for having a smaller playerbase. I tried looking it up, but it's mostly old threads from the beta
@@monkeyarch7510 for me personally, the action is pretty toned down compared to XX and Xrd, and I prefer the visual design of the previous games (see Eddie monster design in previous games compared to the new "cute" one, for example). Not saying GGST is bad, it's just my preference. Removal of air teching also meant that air combo options needed to be simplified and it removed some of the mind games of baiting the tech to get the airthrow vs continuing the so-called "black beat" air combo if the opponent doesn't tech in time or decides to not tech. I just love +R too much 🥰
Try the older games if you have the time and the patience to hang around and learn the basics and you'll see for yourself. They might be harder execution-wise, but learning and doing all that crazy stuff is so satisfying.
even though you mentioned he plays Street Fighter, what really makes this crazy for those that don’t know is that to understand the full story you have to understand Snake_Eyez really doesn’t care about Strive at all and was only doing this tournament to prove a point.
Basically he’s a Street Fighter player who was like “guilty gear is an easy game. Watch I’ll show you.”
And then wins his first guilty gear tournament ever with the worst character in the game (though in fairness, he didn’t pick Pot because he’s the worst but rather because he’s the most similar to the style Snake normally plays since he’s a Zangief main)
Thanks for this additional information. I tried to find out more information about how this came to be, but there are no vods of him really talking about it. So I just went off of what I could find and what people told me.
This was such an insane run.
It's hilariously such a Snake Eyez thing to just join a major tourney as a side quest and take the gold. What a madlad.
As a non Strive player, it's so nice to see all this tech being broken down such that less familiar players can understand some of these crazy nuanced interactions Snake Eyez was taking advantage of. This is all stuff that would go right over my head.
“About the Roman cancels:
The blue one is when you’re on neutral
The yellow one is when your blocking.
The red is when you’re attacking.
Is it clear ?”
“What is the pink one for ?”
“No way man…It’s when you’re ‘kind of’ attacking…Did you get it ?”
“And the green one ?!”
“You got a pirated version of the game”
“Oh…That’s why he had a hoodie”
By the way, love the Spark 3 ost
To this day I dont think there’s any pot player that plays as good as Snake Eyez. He was nothing short of incredible to watch displaying so much of his grappler fundamentals which he’s been building for well over a decade.
Snake Eyez is an absolute legend. It feels like he can make the right decision against his opponent everytime. Zippy’s family was adorable tho.
No one said "POTEMKIIIN!!!....BUSSSTERrrrrrrr!"
Your videos are great, I love how you explain things as they happen (I could never fathom a super RC fast cancel with one bar of tension), I have no clue why the UA-cam algorithm banishes you, long live booty grappler Potemkin!
extremely annoying and unbearable tone, breaking the flow of the narration every 20 secs for unnecessarily long and as unberable explanations which could be solved in around... 3 seconds? All that unnecessary commentary on each and every match? Poor quality? Just to mention some
@@helonearthh He breaks is down so non-GGST or non-FG players can understand what's happening.
Just because you can perfectly understand what's going on that doesn't mean everyone else can too, dick.
@@helonearthh Captian disagree when you walk in: 😰
I swear to god Snake Eyes is like the Ronaldo of Grapplers. If a grappler exists, give Snake eyes about 2-3 weeks, and he’d probably be able to cook you into a very, very fine dish.
This was not only an insanely entertaining video, but also very informative for the people who dont understand fighting games. If i didn't know play GGST and watched this video i would thankfully still be able to understand and have the same amount of fun watching it as well 👍
I like the breaking down of tech and strategies. I’m a casual player but that’s always something I wished people would explain in their video so I can understand and appreciate the play better. Subscribed to hopefully see more.
This video was so well put together, so informative, had me on the edge of my seat and had such a good finish to it. Thank you 😃
Love the video and giving us information that not everyone would know. Pac Man World 2 music goes crazy
The editing, the music, the commentary, the breakdowns and explanation....this is the best gameplay footage I have ever watched. Subscribed
hey, good vid! but i do have a little suggestion for the title, you might want to make it less specific (maybe replace "potemkin" with "grappler" and make it more ambiguous) because after watching the video it seems that your target audience would be pretty large. with the explanation sections your target audience is people who play fighting games, but not guilty gear. if they know about guilty gear they would've known the mechanics except maybe kara cancelling. but those segments are a really nice additions for people who doesn't know how guilty gear works just yet but have already played another fighting game like tekken or SF. the title having "potemkin" would be ignored by them because they don't know guilty gear just yet. while "grappler" or "worst character" are far broader terms that any fighting game player understand. hope this helps! it really is a good video i hope it doesn't just stay unknown to most people
Wow I can't tell you how much I appreciate this. You make a good point with the title swap. I'll try swapping the titles around to see if that improves it. Thank you for the suggestions!
Your content is so well made, congrats
Great video! Really enjoyed your commentary and explanations/examples of terminology. Would definitely watch more breakdowns of matches in this style
Thank you for explaining the tech. As a casual Potempkin player I didn't know some of this. Thank you for taking the time.
As a new Guilty Gear player and upcoming Potemkin player (mainly for fun), this was a pleasant watch. Quite informative and gave me an idea of the tough road to come. I’m not good at fighting games, but Potemkin’s slow and steady deliberate heavy damage attacks suits my slow brain.
Otherwise, I resort to just random button spam and whatever special attack I can remember.
Aye! You can see me near the end popping off when he won! I remember telling James Chen that he could possibly do it and he told me to stop jinxing it. 😂
Good video, a nice touch to not spoil or hint at the ending of the story
Thank you for explaining all the mechanics as a new strive player I’ve learned a lot
Funny how it says the worst character yet no bedman gaming
Thank you for the video. Watched the whole thing. Good work. 👍
Lordknight match was real nice, can really see the experience from both players
I so fucking love potemkin
I absolutely HAVE to start following snake eyez, I wouldn't say I'm a novice to fighting games, but I definitely am to the fighting games comp scene. I've never had such a rollercoaster of emotions. Love pot and LOVED snake's performance, positively brilliant. (fantastic editing too)
I knew exactly what strife was thinking. "Potemkin seems strong ... we gotta nerf him."
i really like guilty gears balancing system, no matter how many tier lists people make, there truly never will be a 'bad character', they can all erase half your health with a light sneeze
From My Hero Academia music down to DEVIL MAY CRY ON THE FINAL MATCH?
HNNNNNNNNNNNNNNG
"The oppomemnt"
The summoning salt intro 😂
Really enjoying this video, currently 14 minutes in, but I have to note that the tutorial segments feel very weird.
It's unclear who exactly the target audience is. A lot of information is left out for people who are new to fighting games. And more experienced players likely won't need much of this tutorialization.
You explain what the RC types are, but not the general properties of them (letting you cancel into another move). You mention that they cost meter, but not what meter is and how you gain it, or what else it can be used for.
When explaining meaties you talk about DPs and show frame data bars, but people new to fighting games won't know what a DP is or how to read frame data.
In some parts you leave out too much information for new players, while in others you tutorialize something essentially only for those new players.
Once again I am really enjoying this video and think you've done a great job with it, but in my opinion it could really help if you either improved the tutorials, or ditched them entirely.
Because when you already know all that's being tutorialized, it's kind of tedious to sit through all these pauses.
It's interesting because for my exact level of skill (been playing about a month and watching some guides to figure it all out), this level of tutorializing was perfect. I knew generally what RC does but not the difference between them, I knew 'meaty' had something to do with hitting right on wake up but not the specifics, I knew gold burst used to be a thing but not how it differed from normal burst. I knew gatling was a thing but not that you could intentionally add spaces to bait out attacks. I was a little surprised there was no tutorial for jump scare pot bust, but I happen to know how jump scares work, so practically every tutorial had something for me to learn.
I'm not a fan of how ya present narative of Snake's journey, but your editing and analysis is quite detailed - good stuff!
Absolute top tier content from a smaller content creator, make more vids like these man
I had to give you a like in the video just for the moment that I heard some Onimusha Warlords music being used.
This dude commentary is amazing “if you’ve never been baited… then you’re a liar”😂😂😂😂
great commentary, great explanations, great video man. Thanks!
Thanks for the detailed explanations on what some mechanics do! Learning my first fgc (and pot) so its nice to know what you can do with the character. Also where do you find the thing that shows the frame data below the characters like the advantage and what is/isn't safe
There's paying homage to summoning salt and then there's straight ripping him off. You're the second one
Most people probably didn't see my other video of talking about guilty gear as 9 other UA-camrs. I just used the intro from that since I put a lot of time into it, but I can see why some people would think I'm a hack. Luckily you don't have to worry since this is the only video I'm doing it for. I hope Summoning Salt will forgive me one day
🤡🤡🤡
@@NathanSmith-tn8do great argument with the clown emoji virgin
The biggest thing that would hold a low tier character back is just simply not working 😂 (Moves don't connect, something that's suppose to be plus is negative for some reason, etc)
Props to the big guy! First time I've got hyped watching an FGC vid since Bee on injustice 2 and a Jax main on MK11
I have audio processing disorder and the music is mixed a bit too loud imo, I can't make out what you're saying from the music unless I'm focusing really hard, would be nice to hear it get turned down at least a bit next time
Love the explanations, helpful as a newcomer. What was the song towards the end of the 1st set v Blitz Zippy?
Is this “worst character” in the room with us?
Babe wake up the perfect name finally uploaded 😱🔥
Now we need the new worst character video on Zato.
Gotta love the summoning salt 🧂 intro
Epic run and a great video!
Bro casually drops Silent Line ost remix like if nobody would notice
not the worst character at all....
Major Bismuth vibes with the explanation sections.
Apoment.. am i missing something?
Him vs zippy saga gave me so much anxiety what an insane run.
Great video, tutorials at all the right spots for me.
I never use this because I'm not a coward. I felt that in my soul.
A really fun and informative video!
Stole summoning salts whole flow there
Literally the exact same intro music and cadence
I originally used it for my "UA-camrs if they made Guilty Gear videos" and since I put a lot of time on the summoning salt one and I thought it was a good idea in general I decide to make a full video about it. I have the up most respect for him. I won't be using the music he uses in future videos. This is just a one off
8:54 bro i laughed so hard😂😂😂 bc im the exact same💀💀 i almost nvr use that shit it just never comes to mind
Snake eyes just is snake eyes man. Hes THE grappler
If you think Pot is bad do this with bedman? it is not fun unless you start snowballing pressure
Thanks for explaining the stuff
Snake Eyez is just really good at grapplers in general
Really feeling your style, very well made
The context to why he went, I think it is, or what I heard in some videos, is that he was making fun of Leffen after he both won evo and was invited to a SF 6 exhibition. Saying how he can only win majors in a game like GGST that has really weak players. So he probably wanted to prove his point by using the worst character.
The non-copyrighted but might as well be copyrighted Summoning Salt song??? Oh nah this might be mad deep like that.
THE CHAI KISKE REPRESENTATION IS SO REAL
the “worst” character which can body you with 2 moves 😂
check a tier list, he is the worse
9:26 naw what happened here was Snake Eyes got mixed because he was expecting the jump cancel Yozanzen instant overhead but got hit by 2D instead.
incredibly funny and useful video, subcribed and like the video instantly
This guy is my hero
The hypest Happy Chaos main: 🤓
The cringest Potemkin main: 🗿
This intrigued me besides not knowing too much about GGST
and of course its fucking SnakeEyez lmao
Dude sees a shitty grappler and has $$ in his eyes.
Soooooo
Summoning salt would like a word
HHH this is just a joke getting inspired is fine
i lov the glue eater!!!
very

Xenoblade Chronicles - The End Lies Ahead
@@therealperfectname THANK YOU
I like how we dont hear snake eyes say a single word untill the last 20 seconds of thr video, and it aint even from the main tournament.
duuuude... you are talking abouto the best, or at least, one of the top 03 zangief of THE WORLD.... he had all the background and knowledge of grappler to pull that off
Great video, thank you. What is that chill sounding music you use during the white tutorial screen?
When I'm explaining things I am using the "Mario 64 - file select screen"
Nice Combo, unfortunately, Pot Buster.
7:08 oh my god I feel so bad for the fat guy, imagine you're THAT low on hp and get THAT close to winning JUST to lose because the guy fucking got up then INSTA spammed grab LMAO sometimes the stupidest moves just work
Amazing video
People thinking pot is the worst character is beyond cope but great achievement either way!
He's definitely in a better position now. I mainly went off the tier list that all the pros made at that time putting him at the bottom
I don't use potemkin heck i don't Even have the Game(cus live in argentina so no mney) but i just love hearin he Say POTEMKIN BUSTAA it just make it al worth
oppoment
Insanity quality video
fantastic video, love the mini explanations for the mechanics for people unfamiliar with the game, only criticism is that they're way too close together
Thanks! Appreciate the feedback. Still trying to figure out the best way to go about explaining the mechanics and also make it so I don't sound redundant for future videos as well. Glad you enjoyed it
I felt like I was going a little bit crazy every time he said "oppoment". Good video otherwise though
To be fair, in a game like Strive, even Potemkin can make some ground. At the time that this was all going down though, Sin and Bedman were well and truly holding the spots for bottom 2 and 1.
I know those characters were struggling. But I just took data at that time from top players and it was either Sin or Pot at the bottom. I don't agree with the tier lists most of the time, but I do think a lot of people take interest in them. Enough that it's worth adding to the story
shout out to the AC3 bgm at 14:37
Very fun video ❤❤❤
25:02 MOTHERF-
okay. Now i know why my busters were failing all the time. Because i kept trying to do exactly that. I wish someone me of this sooner
Yeah Pot has a bunch of strange interactions. This one boggled my mind when I learned about it, but still I can never pull it off in a match. Hope you can put it to good use though!
@@therealperfectnameI am not even close to being good enough for that. I just made it to floor 7, i am content knowing that its not going to work, and that it doesnt work for a good reason, and now i can stop doing it hoping for a different result.
Some people get mad when snake eyez says that GGST players dont have level compsre with other games but... Damn, literally he is probably one of the best pot player of pot and win a major JUST TO PROVE A POINT IN JUST ONE TRY, i choose yo believe that maybe and just maybe, there are more level in games like tekken or SF
Snake brought us here :)
8:56 i feel attacked🤣i play axl, i'll be a coward and used YRC all day to stay alive
Nice video I liked it 😁
My only complaint is at the part where you explain stuff the music gets super repetitive and it's driving me crazy.
Other than that nice video
You gotta update axl corner pressure. Wihrlwind is turning him into a beast
Hahaha I've been thinking about doing more shorts. I'm practicing SF6 right now, but don't think I have the knowledge yet to make videos on it yet. I might go back and update the strive characters that don't have videos on season 3 in the interim
Snake eyez the best grappler player in the world
