check out www.dustloop.com, it’s dedicated to Guilty Gear basically.
if you just wanna play a barely-functional Sol when starting out (without any SW loops), you can do :
on close hits, gatling into 2d --> bandit revolver. This is good to bring them closer to corner.
For a bit more damage, you can combo into his shoryuken/super.
Sol doesn’t really have combo potential from far ranges, FB Fafnir does wall bounce on counter hit I think, another option could be a lucky Grand Viper. 5HS on counter hit on crouching people can combo into bandit bringer or grand viper.
If you hit people in the air with an air bandit revolver, you can go into a bandit revolver loop, which is really easy to do and cool looking.
Air combos without SW could go this way: [some gatling into ] j.S jump cancel j.S j.HS shoryuken and knockdown.
Just try mixing it up, you still have an awesome shoryuken and a command grab into air combo option.
Dustloop give tons of combos but a lot not functional, or too complicated for begginers.
If you have any basic SW loop combo it’ll help me a lot.
4 variations to start sidewinder combos. (keep in mind these are steps LEADING to sidewinder combos, not the actual combos themselves, which will actually differ from character to character, which require a lot of practice and grinding in training mode. These techniques will work on all characters, leading to your sidewinder combos.)
Most players start the standard SW combo beginning with a GrandViper RC(623S or HS -> RC) , then dash up 5K 2HS…
Ground combo end with 2D, SRK RC, dash, 5K 2HS jump (sidewinder combo)
Practice on the ground, GunFlame FRC buffer dash, which the input looks like… 236P, 6, FRC, 6… Because if this hits, you can try for sidewinder combo, and if it doesn’t hit, then you’re safe to continue pressure.
or my favorite dash GunFlame FRC buffer dash, 66 236P (you will see SOL sliding on ground during his GunFlame), 6 FRC 6.
… try your sidewinder combos following these. These should be done MID-SCREEN only by the way.
Grandviper is 214s,
You meant volcanic viper?and thanks.
CH 2D 236P 5k loop
CH 2D 236P FRC confirm a Bandit Bringer.
Terrible toss (623K) > j.S >SW is also a pretty easy way to start them. FRCing gunflames into that is pretty cool
Also as horribly impractical as it is, an airdashed dust attack into SW will also get you started.
From there you gotta experiment with different followups (K, cr.H, j.S, j.D, iAD), for example off of a terrible toss for the second sidewinder you have to superjump into the S>SW, but sometimes you can get away with a regular jump straight into a SW
Terrible Toss? It’s called a Wild Throw.
Yeah you’re right, I just checked the X booklet. It was called terrible toss in Isuka. That and #reload were back when I learned to play, and I remember AccentCore not having move names in the command list so it must have just stuck with me.
After a Wild Throw, on normal sized characters, you can do dash 2H>j.D>SW.
volcanic viper, of course!
in defense of new players tataki…dustloop is just as bad as srk
both being raw booty juice
Any tips for doing SW loop? I can’t manage to find the right timing.
Currently I’m training on the most startup and the loop.
Wild throw>jS>SW>jS>SW but I just can’t manage to get the timing on the second.
It’s not so much the timing but where you hit the character. And the Clean Hit(CL) hitbox for everyone is different. After the first CL, try catching them on the way down with a 2H>neutral j.S>SW.
I did that and it worked, But I’ve seen many Sol players just doing jS>SW
Well, yeah you can do it. But focus on things you find easier first and then move up the difficulty.
Buyers beware! The Vita version does not have online play!
Lol, I bought it the second I saw it was up. Good thing I had no intention to play it online anyway. Also, I took screenshots of the BB palletes.

Can’t wait for +R patch.
those pallets are awesome.
Those pictures you took really help the wait. Post some gifs of some action scenes?
