So here are the last remaining playable characters that aren't in GGST yet. I'll include even dead characters from previous games just to be complete. Robo-Ky was announced so he's not included.
GG
>Kliff
>Justice
GGX+
>Zappa
>Order-Sol
Xrd
>Kum
>Raven

I really think there will be 1 new character this season and then Zappa will be playable. Kliff, Justice, and Order Sol will not be playable.

New(ish) player here, are the difficulty ratings for each character presented in the game accurate? I want a low execution character that doesn't require many complicated inputs.
It's not that I can't pull them off, it's more like I'm an old man with old man hands and I need to take it easy on them, not put too much strain on them per session.
I'm considering May and Ramlethal

>>563582235
you face nothing but jams going gorilla mode at low ranks

>>563583602
Yes, can you also include soft whispering narrating what happened in the highlights

>>563585091
mostly accurate
ram is low execution. if you're comfortable with charge inputs then may is a good contender, though you want to be comfortable slamming out charge moves quickly and often
as a button zoner, axl is pretty low execution. most of your gameplay is pressing normals and what differentiates a good axl from bad is almost entirely if they make good reads on the opponents movement
consider getting a hitbox. they're supposed to be good for minimizing hand strain. my gf with arthritis uses a fightstick and she says its much easier on her wrists than a pad

>>563585091
Literally me, though I think Ram has lots of kara canceling [for high level play]?

>>563584180
Watch them put Raven in. I really hate that character. One of the worst from Xrd.

I’m in my 30s and leverless definitely relieved a lot of aches and pains I’d get from fightan on pad and stick. Just make sure you’re sitting ergonomically.

AFAIK they're accurate for beginner / low level play, but not necessarily for mid-high level play.

Gio-bro here and I'm here to appreciate another Gio OP

I really did not notice that GGST has the most playable characters in the GG franchise. With 2.0 this also means they really want GGST more a few more years. I really wonder how they'll move with this. After this year it's going to be full of new characters coming in.

so what were anji niggas complaining about? this character still plays the exact same

Are there any eldergod cube wizards here? I'm picking up Asuka and having tons of fun but I feel a bit lost on what to do roundstart, to get out of pressure, how to structure offense, etc. Anybody got tips or a guide or something? Maybe a guide is a bit optimistic right now with 2.00 being so fresh

They fucked up Testament really badly but seeing Slayer stayed straight makes me think they might do Zappa well. In his ending he already kinda came around to terms with S-Ko when he asked for her to come back and she did, and he could see her now. I don’t think the gameplay will be any good or worth switching to strive long term for but I’m interested in how they handle it and not dooming too much on the character front.

to be fair, I'd say lolcalizers tried to fuck with him in interpreting only a small facet of the Japanese usage of "ロマン,"
attempting to omit the word entirely, even when the whole game is based around Roman(tic) Cancels, and when it had historically be interpreted as "Those with no sense of romance" that suitably covered the Japanese usage already

>>563589816
They would run out of characters by that point and have to do all newcomers and crossover characters
Given we've had exactly one original newcomer post-Season 1, and that was alternate universe genderbent Sin Kiske, I don't expect the devs to suddenly go hard into that

Does her Gekirin (normal) versus her 214K~Gekirin almost look the same even though the second one is 10 frames slower?
Because the frame advantage is very different. And I was hoping the difference between the 2 is deceptive enough, that's really good.

>>563596362
GGST supers are notoriously hard. You have 330 MS to complete the inputs and it takes about 200 MS to complete them. It feels very glitchy to do on a tech, and so people recommend buffering the inputs in blockstun or buffering them in neutral. Doing the inputs naked on a tech is a fast way to die.

So it appears ArcSys only has enough characters left for this remaining season and 1 more, 6 characters to be specific. 4 of them are obvious, Zappa, Kum, Raven, and Answer. The other 2 could be Gabriel and Ariels. Filling season 7 would be a tall order and makes me think this game will only have 6 seasons before the next brand new Guilty Gear.

>>563597858
>>563597631
Half circle supers take at least 20 frames to input so I don't know why you're acting as if they aren't hard.

I don't feel I have that solid a grasp of the new Asuka at the moment, but his roundstart isn't that different from before. Screamer and Howling Metron (the blue cube) are good options and when you think someone's going to do a fast f.S to beat Screamer you can 6P yourself, or if you think they're going to 6P to beat Howling Metron you can downback, wait and see and then whiff punish with 2D.

My gameplan at present is to get into Test Case 2 quickly and just go all-in, never recharging my mana unless I'm in mana break. Then when you get to 50 meter you can fish for auto-regen and import in Test Case 3. Test Case 2 has the most reliable offense now I feel and the low-gravity staff can be nice in neutral while the high-gravity staff can let you keep some offense even without your spells - here's an example of that: https://youtu.be/ee6fv8QWr9c?si=Rq6mJqGlabdpeBCj&t=191

I still don't feel I have a great grasp of him on the whole though, personally, but maybe if you're not used to doing 22P/K for charge it'll be easier to adjust to it being the new staves anyway.

I've been grinding this game after a long hiatus and I have to say, am I in the trenches? I'm in like high plat/low diamond ATM and I have to ask, why am I climbing this ladder so quickly and so consistently?
I don't know what half the roster even does, I stopped after S1
I don't know any combos
I don't know what to do with my new meme move
I don't know matchups
I'm just heartMAXXing and hurling myself at people and it works, I feel like I'm stat checking people like I'm trundle from league
what's going on?
am I just naturally cracked
is leo still laughably overpowered and one of the best characters in the game
is it because at the end of the day strive is still strive? This sucks I'm gonna get to vanquisher and go back to xturd

As Leo the burden of knowledge is on your opponent to know how to play against you before the actual gameplay starts
As a different non mixup/grinder character, especially who doesn't have a DP or high HP, the burden is on yourself to know the other matchups before you can realistically start your gameplan

It's more or less that I would say.

I just realized that Jam's full card chage here is way better than in Xrd. Just because it charges all moves, and is faster than in Xrd. Where in Xrd you need to charge 1 move 3 times to get the max or holding the charge to get max, but it only charges one move.

>>563603840
Nago is the new Kliff. I mean this with full sincerity too. Nagoriyuki only exists to be a variation on the "one shot style" Kliff had.

>>563590293
full screen safe on block forward advancing move that counts as being covered by a projectile is some of the most kuso shit this game has and removes 2/3rds of the games interactions
mathematically all her offense against block puts her safe so a large majority of the cast that are more stubby don't have answers

these 2 things combined on a high health character means may turns a 1v1 game into a singleplayer game where one person is simply waiting for the may to fuck up
chipp is the same but he gets touch-of-deathed by half the cast and requires really fast inputs that make it more prone to error and nago kills himself
may is an autocombo character like unika

>Screamer and Howling Metron (the blue cube) are good options and when you think someone's going to do a fast f.S to beat Screamer you can 6P yourself, or if you think they're going to 6P to beat Howling Metron you can downback, wait and see and then whiff punish with 2D.
Extremely helpful, thank you. Seems like almost every roundstart you've got screamer or howling metron to work with. I'll stop backdashing like a bot
I've been sticking to test case 1 just for simplicity's sake to get used to playing him and bookmarking quickly but TC2 and 3 are very tempting to dip into for the stronger spells, I'll try swapping to TC2 if/when I win roundstart next time I boot up.
>but maybe if you're not used to doing 22P/K for charge it'll be easier to adjust to it being the new staves anyway.
I dinked around with him on launch but I had kinda given up on the game already by that point and just defaulted to my old main for the few matches I played. I guess it's a plus that I have no mana charge muscle memory on those inputs. Not having the staves clutter up your spellbook is REALLY nice as a beginner and I'd imagine it's good for stronger players to have them on demand once they get used to the change.

>>563612038
Normal is -4. Even though it's that way I think it's her best special. Just because of the freedom of movement you can do and still do it.
Although it's slower Gekirin is -1 on block carded Gekirin is the same (-1).
That's massively buffed from Xrd. It was -13 on block. EVEN carded it was -6.

Now if we are talking demon flip Gekirin, that shit is +7. That's fucked up.

I definitely think TC1 is the big loser of the patch. Its spells were good in the context that they were cheap and you could make someone block a lightning cube and get a good mana refund from charging after, but many of those spells don't feel worth the asking price anymore. The increased cost of the more expensive ones feels like less of a big deal comparatively, and in a way you also want expensive but effective cards as much as possible because they're the best option to go into mana break with. If you're in TC1 your best options to go into mana break are probably the lighting cube or Screamer, which are okay but not nearly as preferable as Delayed Tardus Metron or Arpeggio, which you won't get in Test Case 1.

I feel like Test Case 1 is doomed to become the deck that has slow staff, reduced mana cost and not much else, because while its spells are good, they feel very much like they were designed with his previous mana economy in mind. They are good, but a significant part of why they were good was in their price and how they could set up a chance to recover your mana, which they don't have going for them anymore.

New player here
I'm opening players up as Jack-O with throw, 2K etc., but it's all moves that don't lead to high damage. What should I be doing to open the opponent up in a way that lets me melt their lifebar? I know I can do almost half their health with a simple c.S starter if I have 50% tension, but frametrapping into c.S seems tricky because I'll hit my servant and mess up the combo even if they mash.

Was there a new character designer/lead after XX? Feel like they forgot how to design women starting with Xrd.

She’s otherwise interchangeable with like a Genshin Impact character
