Zato-1

Zato-1 is one of the most fun, and most complicated characters in Guilty Gear Strive, but I'm here to help! If you're confused on how to play him, or how to fight him, then this is the video for you! We cover some advanced concepts in this video as well, but I want to go more in-depth on some of those advanced things in a future video, so stick around.

In the grind trynna get better with Zato. Happy I was able to pull off the throw combo in a match (I know it's not much). Never tried it before and it just kinda happened from always practicing bnb/froggy loops T_T. #GGST #GGST_Zato #GuiltyGearStrive pic.twitter.com/khTvY3URNy— MagnumLVL (@themagnumLVL) July 4, 2021

#GGST_ZAダウン追い打ち多いすると、その後の崩しのコンボを変えないと駄目という一例。安くなりがち逆に近S張り合う投げが完全バー対になるという利点もhttps://t.co/GIVe7fuVva pic.twitter.com/3Rupd5RUgM— ヘッポコ (@Heppoko_gamer) July 4, 2021

Zato throw rrc combo without eddie. Prob theres more optimization with up drift rc.#GGST_ZA pic.twitter.com/EcT2jY2phl— Mellow_RAGE (@Mellow_RAGE_) July 4, 2021

#GGST_ZA小川さんの配信から、ケインさん提供のネタ。画面端投げ5HSダウン追い打ち多い重ね利点はリバサ対応力、カイチップ相手にヘッポコ式行ける。欠点はダウン追い打ち分壁耐久を消費する事、ダウン追い打ちにバーストされること pic.twitter.com/MvzcSuZg9d— ヘッポコ (@Heppoko_gamer) July 4, 2021

#GGST_ZA not sure this is known, but if you PRC sun void (which only costs 50 meter if quick enough) while eddie is out, he will come back to neutral wherever he is on screen where the PRC happens. So you can make him levitate when canceling 236S in this fashion for instance. pic.twitter.com/OMcqRPGJSo— Kushi (@_kushi_chan) July 4, 2021

Any time you could go for double Frog loops, you can unsummon, instead, and reset pressure w/ Spikes. I would go for the unsummon if you were meter gain restricted (after Sun Void 2D Drill Pierce hits or after Damned Fang RRC) and the full loops into SV otherwise. #GGST #GGST_ZA pic.twitter.com/vfy9hckQkU— Mark Kirollos (@Mark_FGC) July 3, 2021

Saw this in the Japanese 15 v 15 tournament. You can go for the jD crossup after midscreen Sun Void oki. #GGST #GGST_ZA pic.twitter.com/LpIdCt5J3W— Mark Kirollos (@Mark_FGC) July 3, 2021

Saw the tweet and labbed up this! Thanks for the Idea!You do need 100 meter but there might be something more optimal 💗🍒#GGST_ZA pic.twitter.com/Sgtpb6GWMU— CEO OF EDDIE (@Cherry_FGC) July 3, 2021

#GGST_MA S Dolphin is safe unless predicted. Repeated S Dolphin is not safe. It's a mistake & if you're getting away with it it's only because your opponent is inexperienced.

I think holding [H] for safety will be a big part of Zato's gameplan. Some of his best strings have jump-able gaps, and rather than calling them out, he can hold down [H] (usually after 214[H] 4X, 236X, or 22[H]) to threaten Oppose on counter-attack. #GGST #GGST_ZA pic.twitter.com/GN8Dapg4Px— Mark Kirollos (@Mark_FGC) July 3, 2021
