[hasty minnow]

Who are you looking to play?

[cerulean venture]

I really dont know I like half the characters I usually pick a main off looks so I would need some help knowing which people are good then I would pick from there

[hasty minnow]

Everyone in the game rn is good to some degree

[ashen obsidian]

Don't worry about whether they're good or not, and like Catch said, pretty much everyone is good in some way. Just focus on who you like and if you enjoy their gameplay.

[cerulean venture]

the cercles mean I like then and the ? mean they are also kinda in my mind

[cerulean venture]

Im just really indecisive cause I dont play video games that much anymore but I still want to play then its just there aren't any actually fun games to me anymore but this looks like a really good game with a great community and im hopping to get REALLY good at the game.

[ashen obsidian]

Honestly a tier list for this game isn't going to matter until really high levels of play, and it's far better to invest your time into a character you really like than to play one you don't as much but is better meta-wise.

[cerulean venture]

do you have any recommendations when it comes to the pic i sent?

cause like I said I go for looks in a character but I also want to be able to be good with in the future and right now as a complete noob

[onyx socket]

Tbh, I dont think the idea of "beginner character" is one worth worrying about

I learned this game on Zato-1.

You'll be fine.

[ashen obsidian]

Only ones I'd warn about are Jack-O', Chaos, and Asuka, as they're pretty difficult to learn at first

But like, again, if you like them, and you like how they play, then fuck it. Stick with them.

[onyx socket]

I would honestly disagree with jacko, I think shes perfectly fine to start with

Chaos and Asuka though are significantly more complicated than everyone else

[cerulean venture]

I was looking through the characters again I think I like A.B.A

[onyx socket]

Shes cool hope you enjoy

[ashen obsidian]

Also bonus for you, she's pretty good

[onyx socket]

Solid high tier

[cerulean venture]

Also is there anywhere I could go to hire a coach and they could hop on call and help me through the start of my grind?

[onyx socket]

Youre in the right place. I'm pretty busy but I'm sure someone could help

[cerulean venture]

oh ok great is there any charges or is it free?

[bitter rune]

[ashen obsidian]

[cerulean venture]

hay @silent crown I was wondering if you could coach me with A.B.A some time I just got the game and have no clue what im doing it would be awesome if you could help me out sometime tomorrow if your free.

[silent crown]

Sure I can.

I got like a year and some change playing the character

[cerulean venture]

tysm is there a time you are open tomorrow and how should I contact you

[silent crown]

I mean just shoot me an @ when you’re free and we can plan it

Or see if we can’t just start at the moment

But quick thing, I’d highly recommend you do the tutorials in this game and learn about how the system works

[cerulean venture]

alr I cant play now but I will @ you maybe tomorrow and ill make sure to do the tutorial first and again tysm for all the help

[silent crown]

No prob

[cerulean venture]

@silent crown Im doing some training rn with aba but idk how to play her at all and cant find anything to help cause i m using an xbox controller

[silent crown]

Ok no problem

Also the controller doesn’t matter

Just play with what you’re comfortable with

[cerulean venture]

yea ik i just cant find a tutorial on aba where there using my controller which makes it hard for me to learn the moves

[silent crown]

Fundamentally tho big thing about fighting games is that you gotta learn about numpad notation

It’s a little unusual when we’re talking about what it is casually but it’s super important help you shorthand inputs in the game and in general as you go

[cerulean venture]

yea sense im used to super smash this is all new to me

ok well thanks im get back to the missions

[silent crown]

No hold on I can assist w that

[cerulean venture]

yes?

[silent crown]

Check this

[cerulean venture]

wow thats REALLY helpful tysm

[silent crown]

Also, in Guilty gear, the name of normals are Punch, Kick, Slash, Heavy Slash, Dust.

[cerulean venture]

yea i fugured that out

[silent crown]

So when someone does a crouching slash move, we shorthand it to 2S

And that’s the idea for all of them. Directional input plus the button attached to it

Plus in game you can change how the inputs are displayed in the training mode

[cerulean venture]

also should i be using d pad or joystick?

[silent crown]

That’s totally preference based

[cerulean venture]

ok ty
