Loyal fans unite

LOYAL FANS UNITED

NO MERCY

NO REMORSE!

I'm out here profitting from this fear so i can't be mad

unfortunately, he doesn't use these new combos yet. Although he waited a long time for the patch.

True, anything that he does is Better now, better Damage, Meter build, Drive Drain, etc.

All these buffs just for snake to main Akuma lol

You love to see it

Street Fighter is slowly turning into KoF with what they just revealed lol.

@@alexism9656 ong I am hyped now that they adding Terry from Smash Should have seen this coming with Akuma from Tekken already in

@@mr_0n10n5 They should add Geese from Tekken as well while they're at it ;^)

Very marvel.

With the greatest of ease🥴

Potemkin shows up when he can but he's very busy

Beowulf is being escorted out for being too rowdy

He came a long way since SFV, when his c. HP could only juggle into sweep, and all his other normals would oddly whiff. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-MZPey5IUhXA.htmlfeature=shared

if they did lariat would've hit crossups

@@nuD0P wtf you are using my pfp from 2012 poggies

@@evangel1460 i haven't changed it since 2012

​@@nuD0PIf only. Maybe they'll finally let Lariat hit behind him in year without monkey's pawing poor Gief like they did in _SFV_ towards the end.

As a Gief player since SFV, he has come leaps and bounds since then. In SFV, his juggles were oddly restrictive (e.g. c. HP can only combo into sweep, you can't continue the juggle with any other normal), and he had maybe 3 combos. So even seeing him having actual combos in Season 1 of SF6 was fantastic. Now he's even more awesome. Capcom finally noticed him. You can see how restrictive his SFV version was when it came to air juggles: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-MZPey5IUhXA.htmlfeature=shared

​@@TerencePek-eo6ulI honestly think this is the first game he's had legit combos in. Never seen anything past 6 hits in previous games, even in vs series.

​@@Jetaniumhe has an infinite in X-Men vs Street Fighter but then again I think everyone in that game does.

@@Jetaniumfor sure he had sauce in the versus series, even infinites

​@@MammaSomariYeah, I think literally everyone in _XvSF_ has some type of infinite, even Gief. Pretty sure some characters have multiple infinites too given how busted that game is even by the Marvel Vs. series standards.

You could do the same on DI and it still sucked then and will now. Why tundra storm drive reversal? You can just block and get a guaranteed spd lol

​@@EXFrost Being able to Tundra storm Kick based DI was actually useful if Gief was in burnout with no meter

He is always biffotasty to me no matter how many times changing his name lol 😅

@@EXFrost sometimes you’ve just got to style on them

@@lifebykain true

No hes still probably low tier, probably a more fun one, maybe even if youre high a mid tier. None of these changes make him a higher tier characfer, just more powerful in the things hes already good at and put him a tiny bit more in line with simple things that the rest of cast can do. He still has the worst wakeup defense in the game, the weakest and most inconsistent non punish counter combos, terrible anti airs. Etc etc. He is much better now but only in a more functional capacity. Saying he went from bottom 3 to high tier is crazy

@@EXFrost You're the one who's crazy here that you think Gief is still low tier after all these great buff lol. I don't know which SF grappler that you used as your based opinion to claim Gief is still low tier. But pretty much you want Gief to be broken af like Abigail season 2. Also, 1) _"worst wakeup defense"_ ? Right now Gief can do wake up Drive Reversal which is very useful outside wake up Super lvl 3 or wake up parry > SPD. If you want better wake up defense then don't play Gief lmao. 2) _"the weakest and most inconsistent non punish counter combos"_ ? Lol this is straight up bs. 3) _"terrible anti air"_ ? Bruh, Lariat is one of the most consistent anti-air in the game when all you need to do is push is TWO punch button. Now you can even combo EX Lariat > Super lvl 3. And there's also air SPD. Don't follow Ken players when comes to downplaying their main. That's just embarassing.

@@thepuppetmaster9284 1) yes worst defense. No invul moves, no invul level 1, super 2 is 18f startup, drive reversal is his only option so hes still bad since drive reversal has easy counters 2) idk why u said its bs with no evidence. Outside of punish counter combos, most of his combos are like 3 lights, maybe into lariat if youre lucky. Compare this to literally every other character in the game. Gief has the weakest and most inconsistent confirms in the game. Thats a fact 3) you cant anti air with ex lariat into level 3. That doesnt work, its grounded only Its almost as if youve never played or seen someone play gief before??

Bizarre take. Did we read the same patch notes??

@@EXFrost 1) You obviously never read his frame data. FYI. Super lvl 1 has *complete invicibility from frame 1-17* . Super lvl 2 with 18 frame startup only for charged version and it is FAIR considering it has *complete invicibility from frame 1-18 and invicibilty against projectile from frame 19-122* . The charged version also gave juggle combo + corner carry. As for Super lvl 2 without charge, it *doesn't even have frame startup* aka it'll come out the moment you finish the input and it gave bigger damage + side switch property compare to charged version. And yes, he did has moves with invicibility. Normal lariat has *invicibilty against projectile from frame 6-45* , OD lariat has *projectile invicibility from frame 1-36 and mid-air attack from frame 6-12* . Not to mention Gief has armor for his bear grab and heavy punch charge. So what more do you want here, a raging demon for Gief? 2) You know it is BS if you really played Gief. His bnb headbutt > hellstab / crouch MP > lariat is really consistent and gave good damage. Now after buffed he can do more consistent combo routes with bigger damage, just like desk showed in this video. 3) Ok i forgot the combo must be in the ground but i'm not wrong OD lariat can combo into lvl 3. I did played Gief, watched a ton of them, and even learn his frame data despite he's not my main. But did you even played Gief cause, no offense bud, you seem *clueless af* for his basic info.

ZanGRIEF indeed: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-MZPey5IUhXA.htmlfeature=shared

Blanka is a big boy, for most of the roster you need to a micro walk and then the headbutt will connect but it’s a bit of a pain

Yeah its pretty useless. But now it juggles which is nice

@@Paronak OH

It's the "I screwed up my SPD by mashing" punch.
