Venom is really good now that they patched his only glaring weakness, and have him more meter on top of it. His fundamentals are solid, he's got a strong mixup game that's rewards you for developing and copying increasingly convoluted gimmicks, and a strong "loose" pressure game. He won't hold your hand for any of this though, and even America's best venom will tell you he loving sucked at venom for years. He's really rewarding to perform well with though, and is entirely worth sticking with even when he was struggling.

Starting out just focus on neutral (see: f.s(a good button), 2s) not developing greedy ballset habits, and using basic P set > 5p oki and you'll be at a sturdier footing than most people are when you start trying to graduate to gud

I'm used to picking fighters that take time to develop. that's not a issue with me. slayer looks intresting too.

another quick question. when you turn the bar to the destroy meter are you unable to block? what are the draw back other then losing your bar if you miss the destroy?

you can't use meter for anything, and you take damage when the bar runs out. You'll never get a raw instant kill anyway, but most characters have ways of comboing into it on match point.

I got owned very much by axl and bedman tonight. i figured out how to counter hit sparrow hawk by the end but i have no clue how to stop bedman once he is in on me. i have a hard time reading what is happening on screen when he's going full ham and i'm not sure where i can hit a button. Gonna check out the character specific tutorials to see if they have any insight :shrug:

Answers kind of vary per character, but i can tell you that when if he's using triangle dash in pressure sometimes you just have to make a read and mash your fastest antiair through it. It's not really reactable if their execution is good and he can reset pressure forever if you don't make a play.

Just played some netplayed some Revelator sets against a guy named Ryyudo and he seemed really good so I googled him afterwords. Apparently he's an OG in the Colorado scene and gets around to most of the American tournaments? He was hitting me with some crazy rear end Faust combos that I had never seen before.

Ryyudo is a cool guy who I wish I got to chill with more, and he will see you in Windjammers.

I guess both of those things go for everyone I've met in the guilty gear scene. Stoked to be able to travel to more tournaments next year :smith:

Does anyone know of any high level words about movement in airdashers/marvel? There's lots of them about ground footsies, and or street fighter movement, but I feel kind of lost trying to improve the way i move around in the air.

I was gonna say I meant more like navigating gauntlets of heinous bullshit in conjunction with half screen normals, hence marvel, but I guess that wouldn't actually change anything huh

I think the defining difference between a good player and a great player in this game is that you're scared shitless about being in the air for an instant against a great player.
Fazoob, Bears and Pomp all make me afraid of jumping at any point in a match. I used to love Axls j.S before the fear took hold.

i'm flattered that you'd put me in the same category as bears but antiairing isn't hard if you're jumping at the wrong times

iirc the pc version has less natural delay then the console and especially the arcade versions so you 4-5 frames delay is actually "offline" feeling but maybe the improved visuals in rev made that no longer true

Just played a solid Ram, it's been a while since I've seen one. Goddamn she can be annoying. Touches you midscreen and then you get to go on a ride to the corner. And it's a slow combo too so you just kinda sit there and wait till it's over. And she can combo into her dust and it just feels like it never ends.
You're lucky you missed top 3 ram.
