@@th3SyLvEsTeR she only has 1 armored move and it only has 1 point of armor unless she spends meter and only on one part of the move (the upswing) git gud
What is she going to use as a weapon now though? on both endings Paracelsus gets his soul transported either into a new human body or a Robo-Ky head, is she just going to pick him up and use him as a human battering ram?
@@calb6109 Cliff Justice and Zato are all dead by Accent core, and they still added them. They can deus ex that ending if the fans wants, but I doubt she will return if we talk about popularity
I dunno how it would work, considering how high damage is in strive. They’d either have to buff her normal form, or remove health drain all together and leave it on a timer with no blood packs. Or maybe there’s another way. I’d absolutely love her see her in strive tho.
@@southofheck I really don't think they'd need to change much. Keep her speed low in base form (higher than Pot or Yuki, but still low), give her a command grab to enter Buffed form. Maybe one of her supers could put her into her super buffed form, something like that.
@@TheRealOtatop but what would the consequences/risk factors for Moroha mode be? I guess they could do health drain, like nago, but the reason he works is because his reach increases significantly. If they were to keep Aba true to her +R appearance, I feel like they’d have to scrap the health loss thing. The best I can think of is this; no health drain, but keep the keygrab as punishable as it is in +R or maybe slightly less. And then the blood meter should keep draining for as long as she’s in Moroha, but at a pretty fast rate (think: about 3/4 as fast as Zato’s Eddie Meter), BUT it stops for a very short while every time she lands a hit, blocked or unblocked, so that you are encouraged to keep attacking to stop your blood meter from draining as quick. Either that, or it works similar to tension, but in reverse, in the sense that if you keep moving forward and land hits, the meter will just slow instead of stuttering every time you make contact. Idk lol. If it drains, you are left stunned and wide open for a significant amount of time. However, using a blood pack, much like +R, will allow you to exit Moroha almost instantly (make it 22P or something). BUT you only get 1 or 2 blood packs, and you have to sacrifice a chunk of your HP in place of a pack if you use your free one(s). You can also land a keygrab to revert. I’m no expert, but I like this idea (granted I haven’t heard many). Seeing how the more technical returning characters always seem to change a bit on their way to strive, I don’t see Aba staying the exact same. I think with my idea for her gameplay, she would be more adapted to fit Strive’s higher damage and shorter rounds, while still maintaining what makes Aba unique. But that’s just my take. It’s probably unbalanced as hell, but idc it’s a RU-vid comment section and I like speculation.
I've won many contests using A.B.A. while in full aba and paracelcius (key) cosplay. Ppl would get frustrated cause they were blighted and couldnt get a single move in 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤞
Agreed. The first time I nailed down a Sol sidewinder loop in this game I ascended. It became so fun. Of course, that's all I can really do at this point... lol
Is there any character that isn't good when they get speed, combos, and disjointed hitboxes? Phoenix Wright goes from bottom 1 to like top 5 in UMvC3 off the back of one move that gives him all three.
@@Kizzie_Kay I’ll find out. And hey, sounds like a good StrIVe Mission if she ever returns - getting her ToD w/o a Moroha switch. 💁🏻♂️ Also, what’s your Op(inion) on Fanny from GG Petit? Should she be given a real chance to be in StrIVe?
That’s my dream, in my opinion they are like the darkest ( to call them so way) in the series. The rest of the characters look so common. I was so glad when testament was added!!!
A.B.A players are sol mains that wish to take their madness to the next level. Or are the type of people who like playing Berserkers in any type of game.
I main her but I see her as a character that punishes players that aren't able to use her full potential, mainly combos and blood transfusion management.
I'm sorry I'm new to guilty gear in general but love fighting games. Can someone explain why man's character hollowfied and then smoked his opponents life bar cause I'm confused. 2:30 He hit it twice and I just need answers 😅🤣🤣
This character, ABA, has two different modes, indicated by the shape of her key weapon. If the key has a circular face with stiches over the mouth, that's normal mode (her default round start mode), which is basically the worst character in the game. If the key has goat horns and ABA is running around like she's on speed, that's Moroha mode, where she becomes a terrifying rushdown god with stupid good normals. So the goal is to safely get into Moroha mode and go ham. The tradeoff is 1) Moroha mode drains ABA's health whenever she hits the opponent (you gain some of this health back when you swap back to normal mode), and 2) if the moroha mode timer runs out before you can swap back to normal mode, ABA goes into a self stun animation that allows any character in the game time to activate their Instant Kill move for free (guilty gear has instant kill moves at any point in the match, but they are generally stupid impractical with a very long start up). This is what you see happening at 2:30 The key here is that scoring a hard knock down against ABA depletes about 1/3 of this timer, so the basic goal while ABA is in this mode is to play defensive and go for simple combos that score the knockdown. Ky is very, very good at both playing defensively and scoring hard knock downs, which is one of the reasons it is such a brutal matchup for ABA.
@@fridak7788 you sir get all the brownie points from me. I knew of the insta-kill mechanic but didn't know of the match up knowledge. Especially with GG Xr being my only real GG game. Arigato
Even winning a match against ABA feels frustrating and exhausting because it feels like you have to solve Davinci Code when she's in Moroha (pending match-up)
Character that starts off slow and fishes for an opening to transform and start a snowball effect with huge damage and normals Yep perfect for strive No seriously arcsys bring her back PLEEEEEEEEAAAAAAASE 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
Hey this is kinda interesting of an opponent alright lets do some little footsies and.......wait a minute oh god RUSHDOWN AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH
