If I’m expecting them to forward jump, sometimes you can catch them with a fast neutral jump + headbutt + OD borscht. Can also catch back dashes with wheel kick sometimes too.
Yeah. The junction system is a great idea but not well implemented in FF8. I still like it, tho. I'm trying to play more rpgs this year. I accept any recommendations.
This is my usual answer as well, drive rush after drive rush for backdash reads. Saw Snake Eyez do it too, but there might be some variables I might not be considering very thoroughly. Still, it works most of the time.
@@PlatXavi yeah I got it from snake eyez too lol. If they jump after the drive rush you react with lariat and if they back dash I believe you can hit crhk. I’ve never had anyone forward jump me on this yet
i love my best hard callout for a backdash being a 700 damage medium into nothing
i like gambling, so I use delay syberian express😂
Ikr 😂
If you are reading the back dash you can do foward dash into my loyal fans
I was expecting a fantastic tech to destroy all characters, but alas, this is the life the the loyal fans.
:(
"Usually, Zangief is not that plus"
Yeah, I noticed that
He's plus on our hearts, tho
The solution is to add Alex so we can use lariat again.
I secretly want Alex with the drive system

While true, if you read wrong.... Ouch lmao.
Everything is so risky with our boy

Hell yeah. I'm at disc 3. I'd love to talk about the junction system, but I don't want to bore you, guys.
@@SiberianLab Junction system is dope but i hope if they ever remake it then they rework it as well in FF8 Remake

Hello grapplers! Its good to see you
Hello
Those times you can actually get a safejump with Gief then blow up all their mashing with 6HP frametrap is Gief's best answer to backdash haha.
This is one of the battle music songs from FF VIII, isnt it? I thinkt it has to be the battle music from Laguna! Such a great game!
I'm loving FF8. First time trying to finish it. The junction system is certainly something.
Deal with backdashes and jumpbacks sometimes just let them.....makes them closer to the wall or gives u breathing room so they cant go aggro on you
If I know my opponent is gonna back dash expecting me to spd, I drive rush then spd. They can jump it of course but I like it as a mix up

Yeah. Going risky is the only way.
Any tips for playing on a hitbox with Gief specifically? I love playing him on stick, but I find it's difficult to churn that butter on leverless.
The 720, to my understanding, has no real quick input or help on leverless. It's damn difficult to do.
@@SiberianLab It do be
Υου have not actually shown how to deal with froward jumps like how to properly ani air them
It's all about positioning. Ideally, you want to catch jump frames. Close forward jumps are a pain with this guy.
Gief is so bad compared to the rest of the cast but I’m a loyal fan
Gief mains are also crybabies try out Manon, Honda or lily
You can stop both with alt+f4
2nd
Dos!
