I get adding Saber and Mash, they're the face characters and an acceptable crossover

This is just so random though, lol

i dont think hitman is op cus of system mechanics lol
he's op because under 33% hp he gets a safe on block dp that leads to touch of death combos

that's true, I more just meant that they exploit stuff the best but I dunno how to even phrase what I meant 12 hours later

Dantes murdered the poo poo out of Roa in the FGO timeline so that’s a funny pick. Also he’s rad as all hell though I would prefer Jalter.

I never would’ve expected ushi to get in but she’s great so good job fb

If they just make this game "Melty Blood VS FATE" I'm fine with that, a lot of characters in fate would own as fighting game characters

OK so I got GGS to try it out and I'm liking it better than DNF. I like the movement and characters more, it seems to have more depth and content, and I've been able to find games more easily. I'm having some trouble figuring out combos, since it doesn't seem like BFZ or DNF where you can mostly cancel light into medium into heavy to get some basic combos.

Wondering which characters to get good at. So far I'm liking the big samurai guy and the naruto dude the most.

most basic blockstrings are
punches > punches/specials
kicks > dusts > specials
slashes > other slashes/heavy slashes > specials

here's a better-detailed rundown of the cancel system, called Gatlings in Strive
https://www.dustloop.com/w/GGST/Movement#Cancels

if you look at your character's pressure and combo strings you'll see they mostly use the above rules. Here's chipp's combo page on dustloop for instance:

They're both very strong characters but we are getting a balance patch on 12/15. But I wouldn't worry too much about and just go press buttons.

Ushi is probably in part because of Saori Hayami after her biggest year yet, and out of her playables in Fate, Ushi is arguably the most popular out of Saint Martha, Atalanta, Melt (mostly because of the TV show).

This is loving absurd and I love it with my entire being. Enjolras holding the French flag like Sin and having a super where he calls down gunfire from his fellow revolutionaries is genius.

I'll probably download this. I've GOT to see how Eponine plays.

If there is anything I like about FGO, it is that it takes the conceit of "Battle Royale between mages and their summoned heroes from the past, present, or future, fictional or otherwise" from its source material, and absolutely runs with it.
