Day 2 labbing this character... the combo routes are much better now. Steadily making progress. Still need to lab the corner oki stuff, and I've got a few ideas on pressure/mixups I'd like to try. The more time I spend with this character, the more broken he feels. I hope he doesn't get the hammer in a future patch, but he might need some small nerfs to be honest. #GuiltyGearStrive #HappyChaos

DISCLAIMER: The character hasn’t been out for a week so a lot of these routes are likely to get optimized later down the line. This video is aimed towards players who want to learn and understand Happy Chaos’ combo theory and get an idea on what they look like with different combo starters. Resources, notations, OST, and social media will be linked below. #GGST_HA #GGST #guiltygear #guiltygearstrive #strive EXTRA NOTE: in the 5D Starter combos I forgot to include dl. 5]H[ in the routes, apologies for any confusion! - Music: A Fool or a Clown?

Notation further down the description. Here are the BnBs I've gravitated towards over the past several days of playing and labbing Chaos. I figure it's good to use a low number of bullets for most combos, and to have combos in case you're out of bullets. Using more than 1 bullet per combo seems to reach a point of diminishing returns, unless you need to add another bullet for a specific confirm (like from 2S) or need to force a wallstick for Deus Ex. No corner-specific stuff here. If you're close to the wall, you can end one of the juggle combos with 6S into a Steady Aim shot, which will almost always wallstick (gunshots do a TON of wall damage). From there, you can get a super from any range. Note: Many of these routes will still work if you substitute a c.S for a 5K. 5K is a frame faster than c.S, doesn't have a range requirement, and doesn't lose too much damage, so if you're having trouble, feel free to use 5K for consistency's sake.

The added height will usually give you c.S 6K instead of 5K 6K juggle, and potentially a sideswap. Notable CHs: 2D: link 6K after 2S: get a HKD using only 1 bullet Thanks for watching, more tech or whatever coming soon or something.

垂直か前ジャンプか ガードされ続けたら5S 6S まで入れ込みでいいはず どこかでカウンターしたら236sで打ち上げて、6s 214s ロール 6s 214sかな

Not sure if this is known, but Happy Chaos can do 214s Hs loops with reloads between each shot #GGST_HA #GGST_HC pic.twitter.com/Zr1yM7Pogt— ExWiper (@ex_wiper) December 3, 2021

So much to uncover with this character, but man is it fun to figure out! Drop any questions or comments and I'll do my best to answer them.

#GGST_HA example combo after guard crush strike/throw setup. Probably not optimal. pic.twitter.com/6QIIuP7QiZ— Unluckythirteen (@unlucky13irteen) December 3, 2021

#GGST_HA You can do whatever>[H]>214]H[S~H>22P and it can frame trap 3fs or you can delay the shot for a clean shot and trade with 5fs. Either option gives you this combo on hit and the clean hit gives you a strike/throw 50/50 on block. pic.twitter.com/q7AxVxiR3Z— Unluckythirteen (@unlucky13irteen) December 3, 2021

Some Chaos frame trap ideas. Some of them are riskier than others (particularly using 214S point blank without BRC to make it a true blockstring), but the reward is high. #GGST #GGST_HC pic.twitter.com/Qfxt0Xwps7— soberquet (@SobArts) December 3, 2021

ハッピーケイオスM1体力減るスケープゴート逃げではなく、カース逃げがどれだけ安全に出来るか確認しました。結果、相手のリーチと発生によりますが、6Kは距離が離れずやや危険、fS、遠目の2S、6Sが比較的安全のようです。ただ、ソルやファウストには危なそうです。#GGST_HA pic.twitter.com/G2PzUYVvNN— ウーマロ(umaro_mustang) (@lfmust) December 3, 2021
