GIOVANNA - Optimal and Bnb Combo Showcase (Guilty Gear Strive)
Showcase of Giovanna's combo theory in Guilty Gear Strive, ranging from easy bnbs, to the more optimal ones with harder execution. She got buffed on the latest patch (1.10), allowing for more meterless routes, in which she struggled in past versions. Combo notations bellow:
(The longer you delay the jumping attacks, the better corner carry you get)
