I finished watching the Soriz guide only to see this right next to it. The fact you decided to cover two of my favorites is extremely convenient. As someone that has wanted Nier in Granblue for a while this will help me greatly. I've always been pretty ass at fighters over the years but I've gotten somewhat competent at this one and am hoping to at least hit S rank or something one day (and make as many Metera and Cag players suffer as possible while doing so). Thanks for the guides Jiyuna! (could we get a Eustace one at some point?)
@@ANIMEILLUMINATI And this is one of the many reasons you'll always be my favorite FG personality ♥. I hope to run into you on GB eventually, I'll probably get floored but it'd be amazing to play you at some point
When Granblue released my friend picked up Nier and I kept getting so frustrated that he changed characters. Now I've picked her up using the most basic ass game plan from your guide and now my friend is upset I didn't earn this "knowledge" myself lmao. I'm doing my part online.
I think quick jab, quick fireball, anti-air and grab are good options against Nier. Which coincidentally none of the players in the video did, as I presume they have too little experience against Nier. You can kill Death with any insignificant amount of damage (such as the ones from Bravery Counter), and you shut down all of Nier's gameplay for 5 seconds as she lost the range (and some damage) on M/H/Sweep and also have no combo capability other than raging strike. Her reversal (including the metered version) is Armor, thus she can be grabbed during the startup since it is not that fast, or be grabbed on block. But I do think her damage is too high with her optimal combos. I think a good nerf that doesn't destroy a lower-skilled Nier player's experience is to reduce the maximum amount of damage she can do in a combo, or limit the heart counter more so you risk depleting the heart counter with long combo.
I have to prove Im allowed to use her cuz Im currently sitting in Arcanum Sandbox farming away for her uncap. But yes 1 maybe 2 setups is all u need on Nier and I love it.
I just fought a Nier in ranked that had what I assumed would be "jiyuna guide energy", and looked online and yep the guide is up now edit: wow he was using this color too lol, good shit whoever you were
I got the game because it looks awesome and a lot of the content creators I enjoy are playing it. Seeing as Jiyuna turned me into a filthy Modern Cammy main and got my terrible ass to climb, I'm gonna blame him for me maining Nier until she's nerfed. Then I'll pick an actual character and learn the game.
It's seriously ballsy that ArcSys really said no balance patch until February. You'd think they'd at least tweak the newest characters even if just a bit. I'm getting flashbacks to DNF Duel where we waited months for a balance patch and they finally dropped one that essentially did nothing for the game... Feels bad man Anyway great guide yet again, hope you decide to make more for other characters. Happy New Year!
@@hollowhunter1619 is that a standard "patch" or a "balance patch"? If it's the latter "the clip that killed Strive" is starting to make more sense 🤣 Versus Rising just released with 4 brand new characters and also gave every single character new special moves. The characters that have been around for the last 3 years shouldn't need much balancing but clearly a new character like Nier does. A small balance patch towards tweaking the 4 newest characters should be what they're cooking up soon at least. That's not even to mention new systems like Brave Points or the obnoxious 66L. So I really don't understand your point. This version of the game just released, there's issues they should be fairly quick to fix. Strive has been around for... 3 years now? Of course that game isn't going to need, or shouldn't need, a balance patch every other month.
She's gonna be free new week if Grimnir is any indication of a pattern. Watch everyone struggling in S ranks magically become S+. Can't wait to finally play her myself. Playing Zooey right now, GranBlue real "puppet character", but new week, F2P users will experience the joy of being carried.
i just started playing nier! thanks for the guide!, and i hope blazblue makes a new game with grandblue graphics!, but yeah i know the actual situation....
A character that feels most like "Advanced Gran™️" could be a good guide. Like, you finally buy the game, you only ever played Gran, but you want to actually get better at execution and a more complicated game plan. No idea which Character that is I'm just playing Gran still lol
i picked this character just cause I heard shes busted and I got to s++ in under 40 hours (never played vanilla granblue) and I am NOT that good at fighting games and my neutral really isnt that great, and I did it by learning like two combos and two setups for different situations, some basic frame traps and tick throws, and 66l. I dont even feel the need to learn more with this character. shes broken, how do some people think some other characters are better than this character, def the scrubbiest character of all time and I am super carried.
at 12:40 sometimes when im doing the ender with 4M+S 5M+S they are too high do i have to delay my 5H after 5H+S? also thanks for this guide + your modern cammy guide was what got me a bit more comfortable with fighting games (still a scrub)
I just picked up the free version first fighting game for me and i love nier. Even tho i didn't understand 90% of what you were talking about, pressuring with dash light helped me already 😂. Is there any other fighting games similar to this one? I didnt like tekken at all when i tried it and street fighter felt too complicated 😅😅
He was so busted at release with his unique cane move launcher which guaranteed a tod, his parry had 1 frame activation, a lot of damage for no effort and among the simpler characters to play. He was also called "P2W dlc" after an EVO was made only of him because you needed Leroy for beating Leroy.
Question so when I do the nier combo ender setup sometimes I read the opponents brave counter by running up and dodging but what do I punish with? A basic 3 hit combo because death is disabled when they got hit with the brave counter
I've been playing Nier and enjoying being inefficient as fuck styling on people. 2024 is now the time for ruthless efficiency. I'll go back to styling once she gets nerfed.
So you're telling me that I should just buy the full game already and have a lots of fun massacreting people left and right without anyone to hold me down, in your honest opinion, do you think gran blue is gonna be one of the big fighting games of 2024, because obviously street is gonna be there, strive I think it's shit right now, mk1 feels niche as hell, and I don't see a marvel type game to feel the void of flashy games, ever since I retired from tatsunoko vs capcom a few months back I being feeling the need to just pick a game that suits my aggressive playstyle so I can just bully people, or maybe even become a top player in the world cause I feel I want to accomplish more of what I already have, don't know.
@@ANIMEILLUMINATI That's the thing, I don't just want to play with people, I want to compete in as many big tournaments as well, I live in an extremely barren wasteland when it comes to competition, I cannot travel to the usa without a sponsor or without a lot of money saving, but now we have rollback so a lot of those issues aren't that much of a problem, I know I have the dedication to become a top player if I can click on a game, but I also want to have security if im going to invest into a game, and gran blue always look to me like a type of game that suit my playstyle and expectations gameplaywise, but it had a sad start due to the pandemic, now with rising it could very well change, I wanna give it a try so I asked several people that I came into contact across the years due to competition in tvc and mutuals, anyway, I may just buy it and just say fuck it cause I really feel that urge to compete again.
The video that killed Granblue
Once Nier becomes F2P, we're doomed
Gotta kill it first and rebuild it later
Whatever it takes…
~8.5 hours until the rotation with nier and cag. Well, it was a fun FG death speedrun
@@zenlaeth check whats on rotation buddy ;)
“even if the mixup doesn’t work, i’m +86” had me dying lmao. happy new year brother jiyuna
What better way to kick off 2024 than with a Nier guide teaching us to get easy wins and master rank.
"It's ok I'm +86" the universal answer that works every time you screw up.
Saving Melty by killing Granblue, respect!
I need Nanaya
This is probably the first "puppet" character that I seen that was this easy and top tier in the same time, not even carl from Blazblue was this flexible lol
the gap of difficulty in Carl and Nier is MASSIVE lol. So wild
She's more of a P4A character, not a traditional puppet character
Carl is so difficult he stops most people playing after just a few hours lol.
Can’t even call her a puppet character.
She’s closer to Persona calls in P4A or Celica in BB than a real puppet character.

Perfect. Now we just need a week of her on the F2P version and see how Cygames feels about her.
"Hmmm all these new players tried Nier and did poorly. I think we need to buff her."
@@0GTXR ngl that would be the funniest timeline
I haven't played for a while but I'm going back as soon as she is free. 😂😂
It's fucking over
Guess what
Best anti-nier tech is alt f4 on the loading screen you don't lose diamonds and it's unblockable
She can’t counter that
Unblockable 😂😂😂 That's funny man!
@@butchpeddlin4767 they gotta hold that
2B has enough power to recoup the player loss, but she's from NIER Automata
It was inevitable
Main menu > Profile > Match history > Most recent Nier player > Character profile menu > Block
The tech
Despite the tone of the video, this is actually a really solid guide for playing fighting games.
Fighting against Neir feels like fighting against mvc2 strider/doom with no assists.
Finally, thanks sajam
When I was playing her I was having a really hard time climbing up rank with her, people disconnected on the versus screen...
The ultimate Anti-Nier tech
i bough the game with the "heavy neutral" argument, ended with "rushdown, the game".
Heavy neutral was vanilla, this is Rising!

Pick Nier
Don't learn the character

= Hit master
What if I do learn the character

How to win with nier: have a pulse
Basically
Jiyuna 2024 is a villain. You just killed this game, aint no more ggs
When Granblue released my friend picked up Nier and I kept getting so frustrated that he changed characters. Now I've picked her up using the most basic ass game plan from your guide and now my friend is upset I didn't earn this "knowledge" myself lmao. I'm doing my part online.
Keep it up
*Be* the cancer you want to see in the world!
Jiyuna should rename the guide into "How to earn your place on everyone's blocklist".
LMAO i like the in-game name change, you're doin God's work here man.
Sick guide, not sure if you did it already but a Vira guide would be cool
I was thinking in getting into granblue... But ill wait until this character is adjusted if UNI 2 doesn't suck my life
every VS Nier match is a first to 1
lol
Never trust in Nier players.
I have no idea what you're talking about
wtf the editing is godlike this time, holy shit
I think quick jab, quick fireball, anti-air and grab are good options against Nier. Which coincidentally none of the players in the video did, as I presume they have too little experience against Nier.

Ive been waiting for this!!! Thank you!!
Your teaching made it so easy to understand! thank you!
I have to prove Im allowed to use her cuz Im currently sitting in Arcanum Sandbox farming away for her uncap.
But yes 1 maybe 2 setups is all u need on Nier and I love it.
You should make a belzebub guide i think hes hella underrated
Yeah I'm eyeing him. I haven't ran into a single one on ranked
I'm actually surprised by the lack of Belzebub players in the game rn
He's too slow that's why I don't think we see him. Look at all the top tiers and it's the fast characters who abuse the new mechanics the best.
I think anyone who has fought one knows he is REALLY good. And so annoying to fight
Thanks for the guide. Been waiting for this
Go cause some chaos
@@ANIMEILLUMINATI hope you post more of that dirty advanced mix in another video 👀
I just fought a Nier in ranked that had what I assumed would be "jiyuna guide energy", and looked online and yep the guide is up now
edit: wow he was using this color too lol, good shit whoever you were

its probably going to get its first patch before sf6 lol
dude if we get a 3 bullet point patch i’m gonna become the joker
Guilty Gear is ArcSys' baby and it just gets patched twice a year. Is this one getting a better treatment?

Adding this to my weekend plans 😂😂
Going to ruin some people's weekends.
what an absolutely diabolical character
PLEASE CYGAMES DONT MAKE HER F2P BEFORE NERFING HER
I always thought puppet characters were too hard to play. Thank God Nier isn't a puppet character.
The 2 button 41 hit combo is fun, but only for me.
Dropping ladiva. I'm trying to climb babyyyy. Nier for life ❤️
You will see what real power is
Even though I know how to fight against her, I'm gonna slip up every now and then.
Jiyuna you monster.

Ark Sys made another Happy Chaos again? oh, I mean Sol Bed Gay, oh, I mean Kokonoe. Another Kokonoe.
blocked. blocked. blocked. youre all blocked. none of you are free of sin
The only way to fight her.
You were suppose to save games, not kill them!
i just started playing nier! thanks for the guide!, and i hope blazblue makes a new game with grandblue graphics!, but yeah i know the actual situation....
Ah yes +86 perfectly acceptable
i'll have some of whatever cygames was smoking when they approved this character
How to win with Neir: Step one play Neir
Nier is literally just Vanguard from DNF Duel... but she's in Granblue, so it makes her uber broken

I do need to make the F2P Gran guide..
Came here to learn how to fight against her. Looks like its just, dont get hit and then decline the rematch.
Yeah, there are no real “secrets” to fighting her aside from Guard Cancel every mixup and try to bait the reversal.
Remember, you can[not] fix her.
100% switching to Nier. Thanks 👍
Enjoy it while it lasts!
could you make gran and beelze video like this one pls ?
and thx a lot for the video
time to get this character nerfed, let's go ji army

I want to learn more but so obvious she will get nerfed so don’t want to waste time
Always play the new broken characters on release before they get patched lol.
Enjoy it while you can!
drop the nier mix compilation
yo even the combo notation? starting the new year right
Amazing thumbnail lmao

That's correct, the 5H needs to be delayed.
i was sent here by The Vegan Teacher. cool video!
Wait, isnt her super supposed to be a counter? How do u use that in a combo if u dont get hit?

Don’t watch the video just dp you’ll win for sure every time
Nier's puppet should be called Fahr. :p
Boooooooo
Watched this guide and got carried to masters, despite being stuck at S+ on my other characters lol.
Real shit. Nerfs when?
She is the hardest carry in any modern FG.
As f2p player, once nier dropped you know I gotta bully online players.
It will be chaos when she drops.
Play seox next🙏

I never rematch this character
Same tbh
shhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh, dont tell them...
Make her a bottom tier so i can be cool for playing bad characters

+86? Not nierly enough.
But what if it's a Nier mirror? What's the plan?
Its a gun duel. The first one to draw, and shoot first with good accuracy wins.
