GGXX top tiers?

have you guys even played the game
-sol does VV on wake up to stop wake up game,slayer invin grab/anything else goes through it,tada!sol cant use it
-venom and potemkin give slayer trouble!hahah,dude really thats a good one,slayer will machpunch rite through all venoms balls,pot throws out one long attack/whiffed move and bam dash through it, 100% health combo
-not his normal attacks are invincible you idiot,just supers speacials and air attacks,due to his gay glitch.
real tiers!
1.slayer
2.millia
3.eddie
4.faust

i knew that :rolleyes:

first of all, venom never just chucks out one ball, and slayer certainly doesn’t have enough invincibilty frames on his backdash to go though multiple balls

Pot handles his, and gives Slayer a good run. Venom as well. Projectiles in general give Slayer a good run down.

You can’t mappa through two balls and an IAD.

You also can’t mappa through a downwards ball successfully without fucking yourself on recovery.

blinks at all the random Slayer comments

Hrm. Touching some bases. Slayer owns everyone but projectile whores like Venom, Ky, Dizzy, Bridget, and people with insane range. (Faust, Axl, Pot). And even those are just tougher matchs, not at all impossible.

As for the throw, it’s not an infinite. It just IK’s.

And it’s not cheap. Not as cheap, per say, as an unblockable or a loop that deal’s 50% and is easier to land. But what do I know.

gamecombos Slayer forum has a TON of great info on Slayer, especially regarding Pot. Check it out before you babble about Slayer being over powered, under powered, cheap, or pimp. Whatever.

I haven’t found one Sol stupid enough to do a wake-up VV on someone like Slayer.
That’s like saying if Slayer does a Mappa, it’s a free dust loop for Sol, there for Sol wins and Slayer can’t Mappa; it simply isn’t true. You’re forgetting the many other weapons in Sol’s arsenal, like s.k, s.farslash, and the Gun Flame.

-venom and potemkin give slayer trouble!hahah,dude really thats a good one,slayer will machpunch rite through all venoms balls,pot throws out one long attack/whiffed move and bam dash through it, 100% health combo

You truly are Idiot of Idiots.
Venom gets a knockdown, and can stay on him all day. S.farslash nullifies the Dandy-step. Good luck while teleporting with 3 balls on screen.
Pote has Slide Head. so much for random mappas and D-Steps. Oh, it’s a difficult fight, sure, but Pote is evenly matched with Slayer. Pote has range, and there’s very little Slayer can do with a well-timed Hammerfall.

-not his normal attacks are invincible you idiot,just supers speacials and air attacks,due to his gay glitch.

Which is the majority of his movelist, Idiot of Idiots. It’s basically like RCing, people just have to be more charful fighting him.

**real tiers!
1.slayer
2.millia
3.eddie
4.faust **

Hey, guess you actually went and looked at the Japanese tier list.

ok bro venom beats slayer, sure.Im not gonna turn thin into a flame war like every thread turns out so thats my opinion from playing alot of good players.
the tier list might be from the japs but its for a reason
those four have superrior arsenal to the other characters
its my oppinion that slayer and millia are the most unbalenced characters,eddie and faust are controllable but millia and slayer have to many 50/50 games that can follow to 80-100% health,no othe character can achive this without severe circumstances

Funny, considering that Faust kills Slayer,and Millia can be outmatched by people faster than her.

faster than millia?umm?

i’m guessing chipp and . . . that’s it

Chipp is my fav. character to play, just because i have a tendency to do best with fast chars. Faust is pretty hard to deal with since he’s able to mix things up well, but i’m still a nub to this game, so i’m just stating my 2 cents. :slight_smile:

I think Zappa’s pretty cool…sort of hard to play at times, but then again he does have some nice set ups…mad props to the guilty gear staff for bringing the ring or (ringu) to a video game

you guys got it all mixed up… POT is where its at…

POT is gawd.

slaps head Fuck this forum!

. . . higher pot? :rolleyes:

I think SOL would be top tier because he’s so easy to use and has a good all around game, plus he does a shit load of damage. Faust is up there also. It’s all about how much work the character has to do for the win, in all if the character is easy to use and regardless of who your playing against, there moves are effective, and the character isn’t restrcited to fighting a certain type of match and can mix it up close range or from a far. I think thats what makes a character top tier, but thats my opinion.

<-Has the highest Baiken

Screw tiers. Pondering what the tiers are in this game is a waste of time since every character in this game has at least some decent chance of winning.

hmm i c slayer seems to be the topic so i guess i’ll comment on this…

ok 1st off slayer does not own every1 in the game so we’ll jus get that str8 out. slayer is good however he doesnt jus dominate jus like that.

slayer has sum silly match ups if u ask me, he loses to chipp big time bcuz he cant do n e thing and be safe on recovery. now ima not saying he cant beat chipp, but a smart chipp will kill slayer on every laggy move. not to mention slayer cannot dandy step against chipp bcuz thats a free gamma for chipp plus a free air combo. as stated b4, he loses to projectile chars, not all but sum.
i also think speedy chars can dominate him like millia,chipp,jam(possibly)

venom vs slayer: plain and simple, if venom gets set up correctly thats peace out to slayer bcuz slayer has a hard time to actually get a backdash canceled move out bcuz venom wont let him move. the only thing about this match is that venom needs to get going in order to beat slayer, also venom can stop dandy steps wit s.HS when timmed correctly it will put slayer in slip and venom can easily get started on his lock down which leads to the match going in venom’s favor.

potemkin vs slayer: this match is silly bcuz both chars have shitty mobility but its all about who can get in 1st. techincally it doesnt matter cuz slayer cant fight from a distance, now pot has useful tools from a distance, 1 headdrop, projectile reflector. if ima not mistaken pot can use the reflector against a dandy step and put slayer in slip. wit that in mind, jus cancel the fist crush move into command grab and thats easy damage. hmm wit that sed pot has a few more mind games and tricks wit his command grabs than slayer IMO.

i think that MAGUS is giving slayer a bit too much credit and ima guessing u havent played against sum of the chars apart of the cast. now i may be wrong but from wut i’ve read thats jus the way it seems. dont let the dash cancel totally change ur perspective of things, i mean he’s not invincible on recovery so as i sed dont give the char too much credit. lastly, slayer CANNOT mapunch thru a volcanic viper. sol has alot more invinviblity frames than that of a backdash canceled mapunch.

hmm sol top tier huh…granted he does deal the damage and not to mention how easy he is to use doesnt mean hes top. granted the fact that he’s easy to use and gets away wit sum silly things doesnt quite make him top but i’d definitely say he’s damn good thats for sure. also requirement to play sol is to be random lol.

millia dose lose to chipp due to the damage factor. chipp deals more damage than millia in jus his BnB alone as opposed to the relaunch combo. not to mention she doesnt have a true “bitch get off me!” type of move cept the angel super.

i think the game is pretty much balanced for the most part, every char has sumfin unique about them that sets them apart from the rest of the cast. for instance slayer, he loses mobility for damage, ky loses damage for range, chipp loses life, for incredible speed. etc etc. factors like this should be in consideration b4 1 can truly say the game has unbalanced chars.

maxx: chipp is my main char if u wanna kno sum stuff about him reply if ya want!

The top:

Eddie:unblockables, speed, damaging combos, and the crazy assortment of high-lows (hence wut gives him unblockables).

Millia: No need to explain

Johnny:pokes, pressure, combos, and mist cancel

The near top:

Bridgette: Look down at Faust and take out the airdash problem.

Faust: his ducking advantage makes him hard to hit, and he has one of the longest reaches in the game, perhaps the longest maybe. His combos r also strong, but his airdash is pure total crap.

Potemkin: Strong, eats u alive in the corner, ridiculous combos, and just about anything that revolves around strong. He may not have a dash or an airdash, but his Hammer Fall cancelled can move him.

Axl: a reversal whore, a keepaway whore, and a strong combo dealer. He also has the Axl Bomber Loop

Lower Top:

Baiken: Strong yet simple combos, small size, weird guard moves, and pretty good pressure game. Not as ridiculously powerful as the other top chars.

Sol: Dust loops, FRCed gun flames, the bandit revolver, and perhaps the quickest anti-air in the game. Problem is, thats all he is in a nutshell.

Dizzy: Pretty good speed, FRCed Ice Pillars to air combos deal enough damage to turn the tables pretty well. High to Low game exists. Problem is that she cant really deal against rushdown.

Upper mid:

Venom: Rush that shit down…double head morbid and ball formations. Can deal out damage quickly and use a better high to low game than Anji.

Anji: Damaging combos, a weird unblockable setup, and moves that go through things. He also has a high to low game, but its nothing extremely impossible to overcome.

I-no: One might ask, y I-no b4 Slayer? Well, he combos can do much much more damage than Slayer, and her projectile is decent in pressure. Decent high to low mixup.

Middle Mid:

Slayer: He has the combos, the sorta infinite, and thats it. His dash is not as evasive as u think, unless some1 can prove me wrong. Cannot put serious pressure, rush, or keepaway.

Jam: Fast, damaging, and almost like Millia. Problem is that she can get predictable. High and low game is not too powerful.

Ky: Although one sexy mutha-fucka j/k, his keepaway game has gotten weaker, much like Blackheart. His fireballs can be avoided if dodged at the correct time, and Greaver Sabre can be blocked on reflex. He is still able to dish out good damage, but is not as effective as he was in the beginning era of GGXX.

Lower Mid:

Testament: An interesting variety of projectile moves, and small traps. He has a strong high to low mixup, but it requires him to put the opponent in the corner, which is usually hard cuz hes slow as dirt.

Chipp: Fast as hell, has a set for mindgames (though, not really that strong, or truly practical), and does average combo damage. Obvious drawback is that he gets raped like a lil schoolgirl in hentais. Defense makes it so that the way he can win possible is to get hit very little to none, and deal damage multiple times. Not really ideal.

Zappa: yes yes, hes fun and hes mad strong with Raou out. The problem lies in him actually having Raou out. Most playerz will be able to keep that from happening. O, and no reference to Japanese playaz with Zappa. Like the saying goes, its not the tiers that count, but the playaz themselves. I’ve seen the dude who uses Zappa REALLY well, but thats him, and not u. He does average in everything. Average damage, average speed, average everything. If he was with Raou out, he can do that silly corner kill combo, but thats not gonna happen too often.

Low:

May: Weak in strength, wake-up game is not really strong, high to low range is sort of there, but impractical. Shes cute though, and she makes that wubba wubba sound. Again, no reference to them crazy Japanese playaz plz.

If there r any disagreements, random flames, or additions, speak. I love this game.
