GGST ▰ Gobou (A.B.A) vs Tegre (Potemkin). High Level Gameplay 

Its so fricking cool

oh hey its that combo

“Normal mode aba is bad!!!”

Why do you have to remind us!? It felt like 10 days left not 19! 😢

Forgive me for my ephemeral moment of childishness, but I do hope that Asuka has a 9:1 advantage against Slayer; Zato has a 10:0 advantage; and I will settle for an 8:2 advantage for I-No. She - and Zato, I believe, had a good match-up against Slayer in Xrd, so I'm hoping that still stands in Strive...

​@@waitingforzato-1i-noinguil301I hope slayer has no bad matchups except for potemkin

​​@hollowhazze3140 Fair enough; Potemkin does have a bad match-up spread, so I guess one more winning MU would not hurt. However, if Slayer in GGST is equally as much as a war cr iminal as in the older games - where he was essentially a technical Nago, then many of you will wish for more losing match-ups for Slayer... even Gobou dislikes Slayer, and stated that they wouldn't use him when he comes out later this month.

Well, Gobou did say that A.B.A is recommended for beginners; so, while Gobou did state that her optimal combos have a certain degree of difficulty, she is not a hard character to play overall. The majority of her technicality comes from playing neutral in Normal Mode, and managing her Moroha Mode gauge. Now, no disrespect to A.B.A players, but although she is listed as a 2-star character, I believe that is an exaggeration, like with Nago - due to them both being resource management characters. Speaking of those who underestimated A.B.A's character strength: Gobou knew she was a strong character after like day 3 - he likes A.B.A as a whole, but nobody with about 18 years of experience playing GG would play a top tier as their secondary, just because they like a much weaker character more; that would make no sense as a competitor. Moreover, some would also say that she's not a strong character because she has very difficult match-ups in Normal Mode - that is true, but she is so strong in Moroha Mode, that she makes up for it and essentially flips the MU on most characters - evening it out for the most part. Also, she apparently has a better match-up spread than Asuka, because Gobou said that he will use A.B.A for _all_ of Asuka's losing match-ups. Further, I was watching Daru_I-No's stream, and he places Chaos, Asuka, and A.B.A as A+ tier - not top tier, but still incredibly strong, competent characters overall - Gobou has also stated that both A.B.A and Asuka have crazy movement - and any character that gets compared to Asuka _must_ be strong. Further, Gobou also won a tournament titled サンリオ大戦 (Sanrio Taisen) with A.B.A, and this tournament featured some of Asia's best talent, such as Daru_I-No, Poka, コメコメ, Gesui, and saryu. The top 4 was a Baiken player, Gesui (as Leo), another Leo player, and Gobou (as A.B.A); Gobou had to beat 2 Leo players in a row to win, and did so - and this character has not even been out for 90 days. To put that in perspective, Gobou did not feel confident enough to enter a tournament with Asuka until about 4 ~ 6 months while on the character. Asuka is the hardest character in the game, so perhaps that is not a fair comparison... In the end, it seems that people were wrong about A.B.A's character strength, like they were with Asuka. I apologize if this may sound harsh, but I guess just like with Asuka when he came out, my adage stands, "A.B.A is not a weak character; the players are just weak with A.B.A." My apologies about the long post......

i believe it's: -pot uses white wild assault -aba uses keeper of the keys -prc to cancel the suler when she realises that pot will go right through it thanks to wwa invulnerability -aba reverts back to normal mode, and remains blocking -wwa finally hits and guard crushes aba -aba was likely fuzzy jumping to avoid a grab as she gets hit by the close slash with no counter hit

in summary: bullshit blazing

Had to be giganter ki. 2s > 2h > khfb gigantor would have done the trick. The scaling from wild assault makes heavenly and heat knuckle not lethal.

@@GrampaCramps Make sense to me - I saw the RRC and was like "Bro I'm a scrub but ain't no WAY you didn't GK there!!"
