System Mechanics

The shock wave comes out even when you’re not attacking. It won't blow them back but it will slow them down. This is a Blue Roman Cancel or BRC

Regular Roman Cancel - Guilty Gear Strive As the name implies, a Roman Cancel allows you to “cancel” your character’s move. You can use it in many situations to get different benefits as you make your next move, in exchange for using meter. In Guilty Gear: Strive, when you activate Roman Cancel, a shock wave comes out around your character that slows down the movement of your opponent if they are in range. Judging the distance between you and your opponent is key to mastering Roman Cancels. When activated as you hit the opponent, the shock wave will cause the opponent to bounce up slowly, making it easy to combo into moves that wouldn’t normally connect. This is a Red Roman Cancel or just "RC".

The wall mechanic, Im not super fan of. Its probably something you have to work around more than a bonus. Unless you want to optimize your meter usage. https://t.co/A2VAaB6Opc— Alioune (@Alioune85) February 16, 2021

There’s a Dash Macro in #GGST. It might be a little weird at first, but I HIGHLY recommend getting used to it from Day 1. Not only does it make your IAD’s and Dash Brakes flawless, but the new Blue RC shift requires a tight dash input - this makes it so much easier.— J I Y U N A (@jiyunaJP) February 16, 2021

We discovered that performing a Gatling from Kicks into a Sweep (5K or 2K) changes the timing of... SOMETHING... so that the knockdowns are slightly difference than Raw Sweep or Close Slash into Sweep. The following two clips are examples of this:— James Chen (@jchensor) February 16, 2021

Watch ANIMEILLUMINATI's clip titled "throw whiff"

Backdash invuln, hope its frame 1. Depending on how throw inputs ovelap can make some OS's with dash macro #GGStrive pic.twitter.com/jGn1qxlYQP— Trevor Claggett (@Hi_Im_Sunfish) April 17, 2020

My understanding of #GGStrive Gatling System:- P & K Normals do not chain into each other- P Normals cannot chain to 2D- K Normals can chain to 2D- P & K Normals can chain into Command Normals- c.S can chain into Command Normals- S & H Normals can chain into each other— Chris Chaos (@ChrisChaos_21) April 17, 2020

You can control the direction move during a rc by double tapping up, down, left, or right #PS4share #GGStrive pic.twitter.com/wxanadsj0x— Ruka (@HarkGrewal) April 17, 2020

So you can get your rc to hit someone by double tapping rc. #PS4share #GGStrive pic.twitter.com/A6sluqTWVh— Ruka (@HarkGrewal) April 17, 2020

So this me plinking 6d ~ rc. So it seems like in a situation where throw whiffs you will get rc #PS4share #GGStrive pic.twitter.com/Qrm6IZ0Qrk— Ruka (@HarkGrewal) April 17, 2020

Meter feels like you can spend 50 in Strive like 25 was spent in Xrd. Considering that being able to FORCE your tension pulse to max is part of the system mechanics, really feels like creativity and freedom in #GGST can come from extremely liberal meter usage. #GuiltyGearStrive https://t.co/rnWBMMCbyq— Chzchan (@DjandoM) April 17, 2020

Hm there are specific frames where you can cancel early the air forward dash, then some frame buffer where you cant.So fastest air dash button has a timing #GGST . Have you tried calculating this @SuperKawaiiDesu ?— Alioune (@Alioune85) April 17, 2020

こういう移動投げもどきが出来るわけですね。勉強になります。 #GGST https://t.co/ZiJCGnnLhW pic.twitter.com/kQRM19ErLY— Kei Ishibashi (@bashi_slayer) April 17, 2020

So interestingly if you end a wall break with a Super, you still get a hard knockdown after the transition.If you end a wallbreak with a sweep however, it will not give you the hard knockdown.#GGStrive pic.twitter.com/pyvvMWD7NX— ANJI=MITO 🦋🦋🦋 (@Klaige) April 18, 2020

General strive stuff - #GGSTRIVEbackdashes have invuln, but it isn't frame oneThere are a significant amount of frames where you can't block after jumpingRC bubble is an actual hitbox, you can switch block, if you block it.

So this slow down time thing with Roman Cancel probably has more... interesting applications. #GGStrive pic.twitter.com/fhhYgNdpo4— WF | Fiend Wearing the Mask (@SonicfiendSmash) April 18, 2020

So in GG strive, when you get a double KO twice (YES THAT HAPPENED) it randomly chooses a winner #GGstrive #PS4share pic.twitter.com/j9vnQMzlOf— Pyros (@EmperorPyros) April 19, 2020

Movement is by far the most important aspect of Guilty Gear you must learn how to harness well. This video aims to teach you the concepts in which I've learn...

Blockstrings contribute towards breaking the wall as well? #GGSThttps://t.co/Q1q5vo1r5v pic.twitter.com/Ucj7VrpUHI— Alex Biebrich (@MAlcarazBi) April 22, 2020
