Character Matchups

Found this in the lab. Trumpet's from Faust are amazing to use. This is a sample combo for the upcoming millia rage combo video. Feel free to subscribe, like amd comment for more content.

Hey! This is critical information to utilize with May in case you have problems dealing with her most important move, Mr. Dolphin. Totsugeki, or Mr. Dolphin is a big part of May's pressure. Defending against this move properly is critical to preventing her from just running game and snatching momentum. The situation that happens after blocking Dolphin, S in specific, is the most important interaction in the matchup. So, the first thing to understand is that you cannot merely react to every situation that happens after blocking S dolphin. You must commit to an option, immediately. Indecisiveness is your doom. What you want to do is choose a strong option and then react to the situation that comes after the next interaction. If you try and counterplay everything May can do when she's going, you're just going to get overwhelmed, get counterhit, and lose. Keep in mind, what I'm going to explain is simply an introduction to the layers of interaction with fighting May. There's much more you can do to option select her pressure, and defense against her is still developing. So, what are our options after blocking S dolphin? The first one, and the one I use most is 2S on block, immediately. A few reasons why this is good:. 2S is very likely to crush almost any option May does that isn't defensive after she makes you block S dolphin. That means S dolphin into a button, S dolphin into another S dolphin, S dolphin into backdash into another S dolphin can be blocked after 2S, S dolphin into jump lets you recover from your 2S... It's a strong, mindless option on the part of Nagoriyuki that lets you use your brain on other things, as discussed earlier. The reason why this works is because May dolphin is -5 on block, and 2S is disjointed enough to where May can't fight back against it in most situations. You can pretty safely crutch on it, and just wait for the layers of interaction that come after. Either she evades it, or she does something and gets counterhit by 2S. Take comfort in this. Now, if may is way closer to you, I'd recommend you change out using 2S with 2K or 5K, as May might manage to hit you with another dolphin before 2S starts up, or use some sort of light to stuff you. 2K/5K also stuffs repeated S dolphins while having a faster startup, protecting you up close. The second option is to simply block. It's pretty difficult for May to actually open you up after a blocked S dolphin. Like, she has to run all the way up, knowing that shes super negative, and try and grab you or create more pressure, it's not likely to work if you stay sharp. She may present an opportunity to get outplayed by doing something overaggressive if you're patient. The third option I'd recommend is doing spin, or slide, or 214H. Oftentimes, May wishes to abuse the backdash button to goad your counterattack, then pressure with an immediate dolphin. If you're down to call this tactic out, then slide will hit her right out of backdash, giving you a massive combo, and all the momentum. If you're feeling very brave and disrespectful, you can also just do a 5S as well - If May backdashes and does something that isn't blocking or jumping, you're sure to hit her and get something started. 5S is very slow, however. Again, the key is that you need to use these options decisively and mindlessly so you can use your mental resources in other way. It'll be pretty hard for May to force her offense if you automatically do what stuffs her dolphin pressure, also address her IADing at you afterwards, or trying to command grab, or 3K, a bunch of stuff. Implement this, crutch on it, and life will be alot easier. A little bit on H dolphin - The interactions are much less intricate here. Either you stuff H dolphin with some sort of fast button at close range, or 2S at long range. If you block it, your options are basically only reversal super or block, since May is at massive advantage. I, personally, bank on using Reversal Super often after blocking H dolphin, since May players can't help but try and push their advantage after this happens. That's all!

I saw some people say Gold cant escape from Ram pressure. He can, but you have to superjump and only if she is far away (can FD, dont FD the sword). If she reads your jump, you can 6P. Ofc there is more to her corner game but Gold can do the bare minimum to escape. #GGST_GO #GGST pic.twitter.com/Zst6KuAS4A— Sammy096 🐬⚓️ (@Sammy0962) July 31, 2021

I-no pressure isn't as strong as you might think at first glance. Faust has some very strong ways to shut down her offense and mixups. She can make herself safe with bar, and her reads are explosive, but your defensive options are explosive as well! COME FIGHT ME ON MY STREAM.

Day 1 training mode with Goldlewis. Some observations. It is possible to beat wakeup Winger clean with 5H. Probably not practical. Also the risk crank on cS is wild. You can get extremely fat damage on 5H CH for low effort#GGST_GO pic.twitter.com/XnqpU7Oat7— Hit (@Twitoyomi) July 31, 2021

You just have to set up a knockdown *then* place a beeg beeg mirror. Highly impractical, but still good to know about.
