Jason, what do you mean? I think I was this way before I started playing GG, tbh.
Quentin, I’d like to believe you but. . . history says not to. I hope history is wrong this time. I-no is not nearly as rewarding to play as Arakune (actually, if you can actually do her combos, it is more satisfying, just less in-game gain from playing her.) Nice Cid drawing, but he looks cross-eyed. Also, Kain from FF4 is probably my favorite FF character, and I like anybody in 6 over anyone in 7, but you young’ns wouldn’t know anything about that. I’ll just say that basically characters used to be different from each other, and you weren’t able to customize them all into the same character. Hopefully that will give you some idea of why I like those games better.
Rune Kai, Quan plays Faust sort of. He’s actually pretty decent for the amount that he’s played, but I don’t think he really likes it that much. There are like 2 or 3 people in the US that main Chipp, and there is a reason for that. If you can be sweet though, we’d love to have a Chipp player in our ranks. However, since Faust is the better character, I would feel more comfortable recommending him to you.
Nathan, if you’re leaning towards Baiken, play her. She’s good, and few people in America know how to play against her. You have to switch up your style vs her because of her free alpha counters. You basically have to make sure you stay out of range of them, or do jump cancle-able moves so you can jump and fd or whatever you need to do. Most people aren’t used to doing that. Sad part is you’ll forever be in the shadow of SH_, who lives in Columbus, but the good news is he’s awesome and he can help you. He went to SBO this year, so he’s easily one of USA’s top players.
Also, there’s a good Baiken and Faust in Kentucky, and they head up our way semi-frequently, so don’t be surprised to see them around at ranbats or SB or whatever.
Guys, let’s get together and play Guilty Gear this week or something. I missed the ranbat and am sad.
I think this is our list of real somewhat-dedicated GG players in Ohio, give or take a few who I wasn’t aware if they’re still active or not.

Jack G - Robo-Ky
Kamui Moon - Order Sol
Delpheous - ABA
Donpatch - ABA
Josh Ballard - ABA
doragonkoroshi - Testament
Macarthur Blunts - Slayer
Chippy - Zappa
Oiboi - Zappa
DizzyNecro - Dizzy
Paul - Dizzy
Matt (from Cbus don’t know his last name) - Eddie
Seriousface - May (if he still plays)
Chickenfat - Axl
Oh yeah, and I was going to ask, not being familiar enough with Marvel, what’s wrong with the ps3 version? Is it at least better than the ps2 version?
