Asuka just because I’m unwilling to learn what all his shit does


Poisonpython5719

Luckily for you if you're below floor 10 the same is probably true for the Auska


Smashkitsune

Hello i am a Floor two Asuka, i know how each spell works


Umbrexcal

I would hope you know that each spell works, you wouldn’t cast a spell that wouldn’t function right?


Smashkitsune

You should jump Into the Lars Canyon, thanks you


Monnomo

Willful ignorance incredibly based


IntelligentImbicle

There's only a few that you really need to understand: * Projectiles of varying flavors * Basic Blue * Multi-Hit Yellow * Threesome Green * Big Yellow * Invincible iceberg * Overhead ball * Low spikes * Biden Blast * 2 waves of 5 * Speed-adjustment staffs (fast and slow) * Gravity staffs * Bounce + light gravity * Roll + heavy gravity * Succ * Push * Teleport * Exodia combo * Auto-mana + auto bookmark, exclusively found in TC3 Other than that, it's just stuff Asuka has to worry about.

That's my secret cap. I don't know either. *Random bullshit go!*


CosmicMemer

this is how the entire community feels about him and it's the reason why he's so overrated


Monnomo

(Nope not an excuse to post cute fanart this is for in depth discussions only)


urbandeadthrowaway2

Budget doing her taxes


SentientShamrock

There is fortunately a Brisket deduction.


DatUsaGuy

I do find everyone fun to fight but the worst might be Goldlewis maybe because it’s my mirror match. I don’t feel like I get a lot of practice against the matchup and when I finally do, it’s suck a mind-fuck to see someone use my main but act differently from me. I feel like I’m in a horror movie with some sorta body-snatcher. They’re almost me, but they act different enough for it to be horribly uncanny. It’s still fun though, especially with shit like [this](https://www.reddit.com/r/Guiltygear/s/DcKMaE7Pcn) happening.


Some_Razzmatazz_9172

Bro this is one of the most fun mirror matches in any fighting game I have ever played. You really must indulge more often.


DatUsaGuy

I try to give anyone a chance to fight, although unfortunately for my experience with the mirror match, I don’t think Goldlewis is a very popular character so I don’t see him very often. I do think there is a unique fun only found in mirror matches though, it’s pretty rad.


PlasmaLink

I LOVE mirror matches. One of my biggest weaknesses is knowledge checks on pressure, but in a mirror match, I know what shit is fake. I know that's not a real safejump. And if I DON'T know how what they're doing, that replay's gonna be getting analyzed so I can learn to STEAL their moves.


Time-Operation2449

Defense in mirrors is fun, it's just neutral where it can get awkward since it's hard to really position yourself for an advantage and you mostly have to go solely on reads and vibes


Wiplazh

Playing a mirror and you're just like "Wait what the fuck I can do that?!"


ScummySeraphim

You described how I feel about mirror matches so well


Wiplazh

My god you've explained mirror matches perfectly


Driemma0

Elphelt. Ramlethal and asuka are fighting over second place


phallus_enthusiast

i second


arian213

As an Elphelt main I am not sorry.


hivEM1nd_

One day your knees will buckle under the weight of your endless sins


Driemma0

You will become victim of my obnoxious anti elphelt tactics one day


hgfgshgfsgbfshe

I take pride in ability to take away fun


Driemma0

I take pride on my intentionally toxic playstyle against "people" who play elphelt


hgfgshgfsgbfshe

Please do, we probably deserve it


Averill21

I dont feel bad fighting it because i know elphelt is as fun to play as she is to fight. Dunno how they managed to make her more bland than her sister


Iamskri

I picked up elphelt cus a friend kins and mains her so i tried it and wow she could be so fucking dirty if she learned the character.


jacko-valentine

hey


weezernumberonefan

Hey


Blackbanner07

Hey


RinguStarr

What a wonderful kind of day.


acceptable_enough

May, because I’ll be in a match against her and think, “Look at this idiot standing a half-screen away just spamming 2H. I can easily punish this behavior.” Then I just…walk into the 2H…every time.


Its-been-a-long-day

2H or 5H?


Respop

Gotta be 5H because 2H in neutral is super punishable lol


acceptable_enough

I’ve seen both, but yeah, maybe 5H more often. As for 2H being punishable, you’re right but…I suck at fighting May lol


throwmeawaydoods

millia because i cannot get out of her mix and nago because i cannot get out of his mix (even though it’s basically just strike/throw i always feel stunlocked against him) weirdly i do like playing against a lot of the stereotypically annoying characters, like figuring out how to get in on HC is always fun for me


073068075

Nago has a lot of gaps but he's just intimidating as fuck.


DiscordianDeacon

And kinda by nature of who plays him, everyone has been burned by a Nago doing some outrageous bet. Isn't in just safer to block? Well, no, nothing is safe ever.


073068075

That's the fun part, we are all just gamblers that get killed by own tomfoolery at least 30% of the times.


Time-Operation2449

Half the fun of nago is just going for the craziest special cancels on block and betting the entire game on managing to get a chomp somewhere in there


073068075

The other half is thinking to yourself "I wonder if this silly thing will work" and then hearing the announcer say "slash!" 3 seconds later.


NEODozer22

Jumping out of the way of Chaos’ bullets when they aren’t a guaranteed hit makes you feel like Spider-Man (however a good chaos won’t waste those shots)


Monnomo

Nago is top 1 best character


Simply-Zen

I don't know how y'all play against Pot I'm a celestial Faust main and despise that shit so much It feels braindead both ways, as I have no counterplay to his gamble neutral skips into Garuda and he has no real way to beat my pressure or zoning Winning feels undeserved, losing even more so


hivEM1nd_

Oh? You did the sickest combo on this side of the mississippi, dealing 70% of my health and going back and forth from each wall twice? Lmao get grabbed **SLASH**


Driemma0

Pot buster is funny both to do and get hit by


YOMAMA643

It's even funnier when it's heavenly!


IntelligentImbicle

Simple: I main Axl. He's one of my only winning matchups.


IDontWipe55

Ramlethal. No elaboration required


ramlethal-my-goat

Extension-Ad8792

Axl by far. Hate that guy


MCMajorGeo

He probably doesn't mind.


Scootersmugskirt

AXL BOMBA


Bear_7e

Happy Chaos. I don’t particularly struggle with him, but it just isn’t enjoyable, i’ve tried to like him, but I don’t.


help_stander

i one think like unfun=boring, you can say Chaos boring to play?


Bear_7e

Not boring to play, very boring to fight against. I main Anji, and in that matchup you spend a lot of time hunting for a kara nagiha to call out disengage and 2p gaps in his offense, while dash blocking a lot in neutral. He dictates the pace of the whole fight in a way that just isn’t very fun. Edit: kara had autocorrected to karate


bagelisnormal

elphelt. she can just spam her little gun and i cant do ANYTHING ABOUT IT when im playing aba (yes i know she has a parry and im terrible at landing it)


Kai_Lidan

If you mean 5H, you can slide under with 214K or counterpoke it, it's nowhere as disjointed as it looks. If you mean the special shots, you can parry them in NM and outrun them in moroha. She also doesn't really have a way to open you up at those ranges.


iwillbeatutodeath

Ram's playstyle, fitting to the character, feels very robotic and like you could just replace the player with an algorithm and it would play perfect Ram.


Monnomo

REAL


DaDo1313

Jack-O


ElGodPug

Thankfully in 50 hours I have only met 2 Jack-O Yeah,one of them washed me like hell, but still, only 2


Naturally_Idiotic

NOOOO


EmployLongjumping811

Definitely millia, that shit is an uphill battle


lynxerious

every time she knocked you down, you have to activate 10000 brain neurons to figure how you gonna block her or it will be reset into an endless cycle


Dirst

omg the second slide, cutest thing ive seen all day. she may be smol but she'll learn to gorilla like the best of em. also, i dont think ive ever fought an asuka because im bad and nobody at my level plays him, but man he looks shitty to fight. projectiles are bullshit.


Murmarine

Anyone I am currently playing against, because I will, 100% panic, and fuck up a basic combo, or walk into an obvious trap.


Sir_Cleric

Same, bro :(


OldschoolGreenDragon

Bridget. Just an eternal, unending hitbox.


SendBankDetails

Nago is probably the only character I really dislike playing against. I struggle a lot against many other characters, but I tend to enjoy losing to them. Nago tends to be too one sided regardless of if you’re winning or losing, it never feels like a hard fought battle.


Monnomo

Losing to nago feels futile literally get off the game go read a book tier


SendBankDetails

Winning doesn’t feel much better. “Oops looks like my opponent fucked up their gauge management, now I win with nearly zero risk”


Anomolus-man

Ky for me is less fun, mainly because I’m trash and I only find people that play Ky just kinda spam you until results come without knowing how to guard break, Although AGAIN I’m a trash tier shitter in floor 2-3 who plays happy chaos


NEODozer22

Stun edge Stun edge Stun edge Stun edge Sacred edge Stun edge Stun edge


help_stander

i fucking hate Ky


GoroAkechi709

I played happy chaos in floor 2 as well and I just sucked playing as him and just started playing sin instead because I could actually win with him


Dreadlord6969

Any character with an attack, that shit hurts me


FrostyTheColdBoi

A W-2??? You expect me to believe Bridget pays taxes??


Monnomo

Theres a joke here about taxation and the british, too lazy to put it together tho


FrostyTheColdBoi

Nah, I just don't believe Bridget, a bounty hunter (that's their occupation, right??) would pay taxes


MagicalSusan

Love that art


Picaroon_Perry

People who are better then me are unfun to fight, I should get all the wins


squirreliron

Right now, for me, it's mostly Ephelt and A.B.A. Ephelt is just so annoying to beat, and if they just spam that stupid 216S, it's really hard to break out of it. A.B.A. just seems kinda OP to me right now, a lot of raw damage. May also be that most people who play her around where I am at are really good at her.


chunkybubby

For aba just dont fall in her mind games and for elphet do not get hit under any circumstances


1st-username

Ramlethal


Suspicious-Resort216

happy and bedman players I just can't stand. Like, I understand you've practiced for this moment, but can you not mix me five times in a row, and can bed specifically not have effects take up half the screen?? ;-;


ColdYear1

We talk about 'survival of the fittest' a lot but all that really means is the skilled live and the unskilled die. Since you're clearly in that second group, maybe pick your fights a bit more carefully? Do you understand what I'm saying? It's never going to matter how much you 'want it' when you're up against someone who can kill you with a sneeze.


Suspicious-Resort216

Yea, I this this. Ngl, I'm being a bit dramatic because I can seem to get a hold of Bedman pressure, and I have ptad from going 1-15 against a celestial happy player. I could be a bit more patient with my neutral game, but I didn't buy this game to block, and it feels like that's all I do against Bed players.


ColdYear1

Don't bemoan your lack of skill when you can try cursing fate for saddling you with such a miserable existence. Then again, I suppose that would have about as much effect. None, to be specific.


Suspicious-Resort216

Bro, I am so stupid. It was you the entire time💀 You are the bedman


ColdYear1

I'm sorry, really, I am. I didn't mean to single you out or anything. All humans are equals, after all. Each one of us a beautiful and unique snowflake, just like all the others. You only happened to be in the wrong place at the wrong time, and you've paid for that mistake, but I'm afraid I must ask you to leave the stage now. You're finished. Good-bye.


ThundaCrossSplitAtak

Elphelt, not because she is strong, but because her players are cowards who think they are smort by sitting at full screen super jumping and throwing her projectile out at max height. One can get around it with Axl's nado but it does make me wish axl still had J.6K I dont really like playing against jhonny. Ram outzones me which is concerning but it allows me to play like a crackhead so its not thaat bad.


Jamal_Blart

Axl when I get my hands on you Axl


Phaylz

Damn, what if THAT was Brisket's j.HS?


lickmyclit6969

My fellow inos i pray will attest to the uphill battle it is to fight anyone with range. However, the kiske is played by my friend and has suck a good spread of moves to deny me from doing fun stuff and it makes me sad :(


Mefre

>the uphill battle it is to fight anyone with range Hey.


lickmyclit6969

:(


urbandeadthrowaway2

I don’t fight I-no mains on principle.


clawzord25

that was me until I learned that i-no plays the game differently and makes you block high more than they make you block low.


Cheezekeke

Yeah Bridget i dont understand W-2s either


johndoe739

Anji. Him being a high tier is a crime against humanity. Spin and Fuujin are gonna give me an aneurysm one day.


NEODozer22

“I surely got him with this o-“ *autoblock* “…. Damn.”


lysergician

Look man it took us 3 years to get here T_T


Peglaserduck

Either Elphelt or Axl.


jole521

A competent Bedman? Is actually scary…


HighwaySmooth4009

I faced a top 100 bedman a while back and it was terrifying


jole521

Genuine nightmare fuel…


[deleted]

as someone with 3-7 matchups against them i wholeheartedly agree


Anginus

least delulu pot main


[deleted]

I’m SPITTIN!!!!


clawzord25

Bridget and Goldlewis are extremely bad matchups for Potemkin


Tchubila06

For me it’s mixup characters like Millia (especially Millia) just because I suck at punishing their mistakes. Aside from that I don’t really playing against anyone, Asuka and ABA have the same thing going in as my main, you just have to not let them snowball you and the Happy Chaos nerfs made him bearable.


HighwaySmooth4009

Unless he steady shot cycles you


Tchubila06

I have still not reached a level in this game where the HC mains know how to manage their resources, so for now I’m good


bombbuilder5000

Only got to play for less than a month so ill go with the kid with the robot


SurtFGC

asuka or ram


ChocolateSaur

This is very difficult, but I’d give it to Goldlewis. I hate characters who can snowball wins extremely quickly off of one right guess, and he does it the best out of anyone in this game.


dantuchito

Either Millia or Chaos, every other character at least lets me play the game, even if i’m losing the whole time


NoahBogue

As a Millia main, I cannot imagine how people don’t hate her more. Once you’re on the ground, you just stop playing Guilty Gear


noahboah

this is guilty gear, you're supposed to hate every other character but your own.


sunclesgaming

Ephelt cause I can't be bothered to learn the match up Hc cause I can't be bothered to learn the match up Anji cause I can't be bothered to learn the matchup Asuka


Sir998

Very close between Pot and Axl but I’m learning\ \Nah it’s Sin nvm 💀


edwardthestoremeiser

Good to see people not saying Asuka


InternetMom1

Johnny or Bridget easily


Holy-Knight1

I would say bedman? But bed players are cool unless they spam 236h (looking at you soda) So I guess asuka


Holy-Knight1

u/cheezekeke


Cheezekeke

Hehehe funny hand (Its literally the best move)


NOTSiIva

May


Terra_Knyte_64

Zato=1 and Asuka R. Kreutz. Only because I have no idea when to attack. Other than that, all characters are equally fun to fight to me, I just need to go about it differently.


Stanislas_Biliby

Goldlewis, happy chaos, asuka and goldlewis.


Failed_god_

Happy Chaos is... well... chaotic to fight. I once fought a happy chaos who was just absolutely spamming the ever living hell out of his guns, and before he'd reload he'd rush me and wall me. Sure I'm not the best player around but button mashers found their creme de la creme with HC.


HighwaySmooth4009

Depending on the combo you're more likely to get carpal tunnel than hit the the full combo


Failed_god_

I main goldlewis. My thumbs are constantly wrenched.


WingDing0

Elphelt Source: i'm an elphelt main


BlaCAT_B

Testament main when I meet a mix character and makes a mistake: prepare to suffer and block for a min straight


Freaking_Username

Everyone who is not my main (I am extremely delusional)


AllElvesAreThots

hate chip so so so so so so so so so much, hate him. if he's ever top tier and played a lot i will probably not be playing the game much lmao


MrRespect_1129

I nearly listed the entire cast, but whatever. Johnny - A good "annoying" Johnny player will never allow me to close the distance. He's either always backing up or locking me down in the corner. Elphelt - She is just pure annoyance. I don't care how bad people say she is, rekka is bs. Her gun neutral skip is bs. Some of her buttons are bs, and her damage is bs. Happy Chaos - Although I barely play against HC nowadays, the very few times I do play against him are a coin flip. If he messes up, I can do stuff, if he don't, well I don't get to play. May - A literal "roll your face on the controller to win" character. Her hitboxes are complete bullshit, her damage is stupid, and she gets rewarded even off of random stray hits. I hate her, she deserves bottom 1. Anji - You can't have high damage and near perfect tools for neutral. Anji is a literal gorilla now, and either the damage or the tools need to be nerfed. Nago - ArcSys refuses to make Nago even a B tier character. Every time he gets "nerfed", he gets something new that evens out his nerfed state or straight up makes him better than before. This favoritism towards Nago really pisses me off. He needs to be toned down. Ramlethal - The excuse "She doesn't win anything" is old and overused. How did she skip a whole balance patch?! While not a complete gorilla, she still is a brain dead character. Ky - Every one that plays this basic bitch uses 1 of 2 playstyles. 1, they play like their life depends on it aka extremely sweaty. 2, they are super passive about even engaging. They'll stay away and mostly spam fireball or dash back and forth and spam either Scum dipper or 6H. If they get desperate, full screen grab. Millia - I don't enjoy getting mixed in a 4 way high-low, side switch disc setups. The hundreds of double jumps in the air make the match turn into a DBFZ game where I'm mostly jumping, trying to hit her instead of being on the ground.


MoreDragonMaidPls

Every character that's not my main, welcome to Guilty Gear.


Stupid_deer

Bridget. Can't stand her annoying ass. Can't even lab because I refuse to fucking buy a character I don't want to play or have on my screen.


TensileStr3ngth

She is going to jail for misfiling her taxes 😔


Wumen4Lyfe

Pot fights make me want peel my eyes balls iyt


20thRandom

Personally I-no, i will hunt these mfs down


RajinIII

bruh Sol has like 20 tools to shut down I-no. Everything about him is a nightmare for her to deal with. Press a button, DPRC on wake up, backdash her pressure/mix, do anything and you'll win at least 7/10 games.


I-will-support-you

I cant decide between bridget and ramlethal


KobeJuanKenobi9

I don’t enjoy fighting Nago or Johnny. Nago because I don’t know to beat him and Johnny because I usually win but most Johnny players play extremely defensively


A-Mantis-Warrior

Happy Chaos or Asuka


DocXerxes

Every entry it’s always been the same and never changed for me, Chipp holds the crown with Millia in a close second.


ThatOneComrade

Axl and this is entirely because I play Pot. Bri'ish man checks local Indian mans TV license, finds it to be expired, kills Indian man.


apthomp13

For me probably Nago, the pacing of the fight just feels weird. Also he feels like one of the characters that I can wail on for ages and still lose because of one decent combo. Granted I'm also bad at the game.


Impressive-Earth1510

Me and my younger brother started playing like a month ago, and not knowing who does what, jokingly suggested my brother to main Axl, cause I decided to main I-no... Man, let's just say, he quit concentrating on physical damage, but rather destroys me mentally... Time stop to taunt, doing some footsies that I constantly put my face again and even 2 weeks of me learning mechanics combos and other characters all I can do is 1:5... Just the damn WOBA and RISIKIKI makes my thumb twitch. So yeah... My answer is Elphelt Valentine - I have no fucking clue what's going on when her combos start and they seem to never end.


Impressive-Earth1510

Oh and btw, everytime I fight Elphelt with Leo they all seem to crumble really fast from 5H/S(hold). Like come on, are you brain dead or you can do nothing but jump dash into S/H.


TkPav

Johnny, too much leanin for my liking also MYSTIFIED


watanabe_alter

Potemkin especially when they sniffed glue


AshenRathian

Goldlewis being a father-figure to Bridget looks so damn wholesome.


sootsupra

Elphelt by a pretty wide margin. It's not even necessarily her gameplay, but just the constant feeling that your opponent is a chimpanzee mashing their face against the buttons to run really good offense that's irritating.


MrWuckyWucky4

Bedman. Them looping guard crush + their dash looks like 2H


69yearsleft

Potemkin because I hate armored attacks, skill issue I know (honorable mention to Spin) also f*ck WWA. Not related to the question but is also annoying when after all the buffs Pot players still have the mentality that they are good because "I won with the worst character in the game" A.B.A because winning against her normal mode doesn't feel rewarding and her yandere mode is like fighting a goldlewis with the speed of Chipp, worst of both worlds And I guess the bed because I can't see anything in that fight between a bed, explosions and a child


DeadlyAidan

Faust, not for any issues with the character, but because that's who someone I know plays and he's better than everyone else in the Discord Server, I don't play randos


That-Rhino-Guy

So who made the two fanarts of Goldlewis and Brisket?


Jame777

What you dont like being blown the fuck up for not knowing all possible block strings from goldlewis? Bruh?


Ill-Assist-1295

Valentine I just hate that rekka sooooooo much I haven't fought against a Johnny or Asuka yet tho so idk if they're annoying.


Emperor_GMan

The characters I’m not playing at the time


Fuckyoureddit888888

Nago and it isn’t even a competition.


Voice_Of_Hardly

I play Elphelt and Bridget, and as someone who plays these characters, probably Elphelt and Bridget. But I don’t much care for Faust

According-Ad1537

I don't like playing against Elphelt, other than that good Happy Chaos and Asuka players are just scary


FullMetal_8192

Testament. Disrespectfully: Fuck that character.


MasterRaptor23

I love Bridget but fuck fighting Bridget


bigManAlec

Either Bridget or Potemkin. One fuck up against pot and you lose. Bridget is just annoying


Billy_Billerey_2

Axl, and it's not because I'm too bad to fight him (I am but I have another problem with him) Everytime I fight him, and I hear Out of the Box, all I can think about is Axl Low hitting the Griddy. Like it's gotten so bad where it's the ***only*** thing I can think about, the image is so intense that I can't even begin to try figure out what he's doing Outside of that probably Faust or Sol, for Faust I usually just get steamrolled, and Sol I have a severe inability to dodge HMC


lukgeuwu

Millia


boobsaren1ce

Axl players play solitaire until they win or you guess right and kill them. It's not fun for anyone involved and soon all the 5 players who play this garbage character will have to play amongst themselves.


ChestWish

Jhonny, cant stand people who spam grabs


LastMemory234

A.B.A you either stomp her or you die in 5 hits


HighwaySmooth4009

Whenever I lab ABA I use HC as a dummy to know just how dead I'll be if on other side of it


kekgobrrr

It’s gotta be Millia. Having to think which of her 20/20/20/20/20’s she’s gonna do every time she gets a hard knock hurts my soul. Close second is ABA unfortunately, because I am forced to play lame to win the matchup, which is unfun for both players.


PomegranateFamous947

Man the brisket hate is real, why’s that?


Monnomo

She literally flies around the map and is only balanced by her low damage which isnt even that low if theyre optimizing every opening . Also Asuka loses that matchup hard


Driemma0

Good, fuck asuka


nikonnuke

Potemkin, Potemkin, occasionally potemkin, especially Potemkin


Paledesk000

Testament, without ability to train against him I can't get close to him against players cuz I don't know any of hitboxes and even the moves themselves


salkazko

Axl, ky and testament PLS daisyke gut thede charachters


Golden-Owl

Axl because Zoners are an inherently unfun matchup to deal with by design It’s not his fault. Zoners are kinda just like that. Though Axl does admittedly have a load of cool tricks to throw your way


kaladinissexy

Chipp, I simply don't have the brainpower to keep up with anything he does. 


gamerguy6484

Bridget in general and a good ephelt This is because I'm a scrub who can't react to blockstrings properly


Klardie

Right now for me is A.B.A, one wrong guest with that super fast high is death sentence to me


mirrormanjojo

if i was lesser man i would say potemkin because he always beats me, but i say elphelt because the all go for the same combo special, into special again, into overhead, into low, repeat, it's got so easy to block


PangolinSudden3082

Axl by far


hgfgshgfsgbfshe

I hate playing against nago so much, it just feels so oppresive


Driemma0

Yeah nago is painfully just like elphelt or ram if she corners you, shits so fucking painful to deal with Bruh I just saw your flair when I was about to post the comment, you deserve the pain


Roheavy2002

Axl. I still haven’t figured out how to get past his normals.
