Damn.. Dizzy looks like a ton of fun. Unfortunately I can only dream of ever becoming this good, as GG rev is my second fighting game ever, SFV being my first. And here I felt like I got decently good in SFV when I reached platinum after 500~ ish hours, hah :D Should probably go with easier characters to start with. Any recommendations? I main Karin in SFV, but I'm definitely up for trying someone completely different from her.
you could just play her if you want, GG is a bit harder to understand but with enough practice you can get to a good lvl. If you want more friendly picks.. Leo and Ky are a bit "easier" in general. Leo is an offensive /rushdown character while Ky is an all around character, I play both and they are really fun to play too. But I really recomend you to play whoever you like, if you can dedicate that much time to GG as you did with SFV, you'll be rewarded. Try tutorial mode, is REALLY good, and some challenge to get the feel of the characters and see what character you like.
Yeah I did the tutorial just before i saw your comment, as well as 20 missions or so. Will probably replay them quite a few times to keep the knowledge fresh in my mind heh. I heard Leo is a charge character, and I kind of dislike the idea of having to charge certain moves. Ky seems like he would be a solid choice for me though, but we'll see. Right now I'm mostly keeping an eye on Ky, Sin, and Elphelt. What's your opinion on Sin and Elphelt? I've heard both are fairly easy execution wise. Sin probably more so? Not sure about the Food mechanic, maybe it would bother me. Someone also recommended Millia (in order to get the hang of Okizeme which I assume is "Wake up pressure" or meaty perhaps, correct me if I'm wrong) which confused me a little, as I've previously heard that she's a very difficult character. Nothing's set in stone right now though. I'm having a really hard time deciding on which character I want to stick with, but I'm sure I'll find my main eventually. :) Thanks for the reply by the way, I really do appreciate people giving suggestions etc!
1. Leo only has 1 charge move 28S/H everything else is 236/214 motions. 2 Sin and Elphelt are both really good, Sin being a bit easier in terms of execution. He has really good damage (stupid at times ), long range moves, the food gauge let you cancel specials into specials giving you a lot of freedom in terms of combos and pressure, you have to be aware of your gauge though, but it's not much of a problem cause you can end your combos into eating and recharge. Elphelt though a bit harder has plenty of tool to win matches Long range moves,high damage specially in the corner, really good neutral game due to her normals, gradades and rifle, and even an unblockeable setup .. did I said that she has high damage (SHOT GUN+Corner=death). Okiseme refers to the options you have to get you opponent blockiong and guessing how you will attack on their wake up. Millia is the perfect character for that. She is my main character and I can say that she is hard to play but not that much in terms of execution, but in neutral. She has really low defense (second worst in the game), her damage isn't too high and her normals aren't that good, but once she knock down the opponent she is queen. Disc oki, Secret garden (sphere move) oki are both really hard to block and see which way she is attacking, she have really good mixup too (fastest overhead in the game), and once they get it wrong you can combo them into oki again giving you the advantage. the problem is that you make 1 mistake and say goodbye to half of your life bar. Just try every character and get the idea of his/her playstyle, I think is the best way to choose. If I can help you with something, just let me know.
Thank you very much for the detailed post! Right now, Millia, Sin and Elphelt all look equally interesting to be honest. I think I'm gonna try them all out for a while and then I'll decide who I want to stick with in the long run. By the way, how do I go about learning BnB combos for various characters? I assume the combos that are featured in the "Combo challenges" aren't exactly optimal at all times. I'm also not sure at what point I should go play online matches, as it seems most people who play GG are already very dedicated long-time fans of the franchise. I'm a bit intimidated. :D In SFV I never was as intimidated as I am now, because I knew there would be a lot of beginners picking up the game, like me. Oh, and happy new year! =)
Happy new year for you too!! About the combos, challenge mode gives you a good idea of the style of combos the character uses, they are not necessarily optimal as you said, but can be useful, learn them to get a better execution, then watch some videos to learn some more advanced and optimal stuff. Try always to practice a combo for every normal and see how much damage you can get and how easy you can do the combo, every normal, due to prorate, strenght ans special effects will get you differents combos in differents situations so you have to be prepared. Practice normal bnb combos, antiair combos, air to air, roman cancel combos, burst overdrive combos, etc. and try to get the best damage or position you can, you can't always get/need both. Hope this helps
6 years late but you're inspiring a Dizzy main today. Sweet combos!
Awww Thanks ♥ Glad this was useful :3
