 Fighting games are hard. This is a fact I recently relearned when picking up Guilty Gear Strive again with the release of the brand new DLC character, Bridget. Now going into this video, I thought it was going to be one of those things where I play Bridget online, get some wins, get some losses, and eventually call it a wrap. Yeah, that is not what happened. But if I was afraid of posting videos where I lose in a fighting game online, I wouldn't have this channel. So with that said, I hope you enjoyed what may be the most humbling video I have ever recorded. Alright, level 589 Zato, and I don't know how to play defense in Guilty Gear, so this is looking like it's going to be a rough first match. But you know what? My day one Bridget was forged in the fires of Guilty Gear Strive. Let me go ahead and get this win. And I'm going to do it through the power of Yo-Yo Neutral. I'm going to start by walking the dog backwards. Watch this. I'm simply going to, oh, first I'm going to skate in. Oh, look at how cool this character is. Walking the dog, walking the dog. Ooh, would you like some extra bloodshed with that beating? Yo, I'll be talking my shit real quick. Alright, first I'm going to walk the dog backwards. This is called Neutral. Watch this. He'll respect it. He'll respect it. Walking the dog. Okay, he's making me block. He's making me block. Oh, uh, let's go. Let's go. Try to jump in on me again. No. Oh, I did the answer here, but I missed. I messed it up. Oh, she eats. Alright, how do I, I should not have done the bounce. I should not have done that. Walk that. Jump again. Jump again. Jump again. I dare you. I dare you to jump again. Damn it. Oh, if I had a little more range, I don't know why I'm asking for range. He's going to try to grab. No, dust. Damn, I lose. Dust is an overhead. I got to remember that. That's my bad. That's my bad. Look, tough first round. Tough first round, but if I had a little bit better range, I think we win those. I'm going to start with a slash. Now we lose. Damn, I've got bounced back over here. Damn. Oh, he saw I was going to burst. He saw I just got it back. Oh, but we have a little bit of health for neutral. Damn it. This fight from the ground. Okay. Run for his round, dude. This guy's good. This guy's good. I got to play actual guilty. I got to know when to, I got to know when to hit him and when to fold. That's all I got to do. That's all I got to do. See if I can't get a little bit of a combo here and there, but it's looking like I'm going to have to win this one through sheer neutral. Oh, no, not burst. I wasted my burst. We blocked those. We don't block those. We don't block the sweep afterwards. Take that. Get that out of here. Damn. It's so close. It's so close. All I need is a little momentum. If I get a little momentum, I feel like I could take off. Let me take off. What? Okay. Okay. You got me. You got me. You got me with the overhead. You got me with the overhead. The grab. Am I dead to that? Am I dead to that? Or do I live? Damn. Powerful grab. Okay. Hold on. Hold on. Hold on. Guilty gear is tough. Guilty gear is rough. Look at my first day back on the job, dude. Let me get a, let me, let me, let me warm up a little. Look, you can only get three rematches in these games and I only need one win. So let me get this last one right here. Oh my God. He's got rain. Cancel it into the command grab. I'm nice. Oh, another command grab and I canceled out all the damage from it. Kickstart my heart. All right. We're going to get a win. Now I'm playing like a player. Now I'm playing like players play right here. Shit. That's not good. No shot. I threw that. No shot. I threw that. Oh my God. That sucked. God. That's powerful. God. That's so strong. God. That's so strong. Oh, he just knocks me out of the air. Damn. I couldn't block it all. Oh, dude. Let me get a run back. Let me get a run back. Please, dude. I learned how to play Guilty Gear in that set. I got it now. I got it now. I got it now. I learned Guilty Gear. I know Guilty Gear. I know Guilty Gear. Please, let me get a run back. Please. I didn't get my run back, but I did find a biking player. Oh, it's okay. Look. Hey, I haven't fought a biking. It's been that long. I don't think I've played the game since biking was introduced. Oh, get that out of here. Oh, I got grabbed. What's that? A counter. I don't know. It did a lot of damage. It was probably a counter. It was probably a counter. I don't know the rules. I don't know the rules. All right. All right. Reset neutral. Reset neutral. That's fine. Oh, double overhead from that far. Damn. I got to learn so much defense. All right. All right. Now I know. Now I know. Okay. That is a wall, dude. That is a wall that I am not getting through that easily. No grab. No grab. I just got to hold this. I'm in the corner now. Break the wall. Okay. Break the wall. We're out of there. I got burst. We'll live the next one. Wow. That has a hitbox and a half. Oh, we traded. That is a wall. Dude, that wall is crazy. Damn. That's a cool victory screen though. Dude, how do I get past that biking wall? Oh, I hate this online system. All right. Now we're going up against the level 500 Potemkin here. So this is going to be interesting. He told me not to jump, but I actually don't plan on jump. Damn. That was smoothie rolled forward. I just got that no problem. He did it again. He did it again. Now he thinks I'm going to jump though. I'm just actually going to mash. Yeah, he thought. Dude, I've played grapplers in other games, man. That was not as clever as you would think. Oh, he stopped me on my rampage. He stopped me just as the goal was getting good. Oh, he's nice. He's nice. He's nice. Oh, but I did not mean to burst. I did not mean to burst. All right. Now we jump. Now we jump. Yup. Yup. Yup. Dude, I've seen your type before. Damn, I try to get my own command grab. Damn, I'm dead. I'm dead. I'm actually dead. Damage. Damage. Damage. Damage. My goodness. All right. We got to play a little safer. We got to, you know, treasure the life we have. We got to treasure the life we have. That's all we need. Look, I can see the patterns. It's just, yeah, it's rough out here in these streets, dude. All right. He jumped. Oh, he got to grab. Do I jump here or do I not? I think we mash. Oh God. I did it. I did the butt slam. No, no, no, I did the butt slam. I would, I would ask first into the wall. Damn it. Okay. I keep jumping into range. Why I keep jumping into range. I will never do jump that. Oh, he command grabbed me out of my command grab. What? That is just messed up. Not just trade there. Damn it. I knew I was playing aggressive, but damn, let me get your break. I should, I should R seed. That's my bad. That's my bad. That's my bad. Can't extend. Can't overextend. Damn. Just let me get one win. Oh, he keeps see. I can't believe he can see that. Damn. I jumped into him again. Okay. He's kind of nice with it. All right. All right. There was, there was a much we could do there. I kind of panic. Okay. Okay. Focus. I'm getting, I'm getting, I'm getting this way. All right. He's making fun of me now. He tried to style. He tried to style. He deserves it. He deserves it. But I do like the style choice. Damn it. Jump that. Don't, no jump. No jump. Jump this. I can't believe it. I can't believe. Oh, we live. We actually lived those. Oh, he knew I was thinking it. He knew I was thinking it. Damn. I thought, oh, I thought it was genius. I can't win. Dude, Guilty Gear is tough. God damn, get my eyes beat. Learning pocket. Well, great. Now I think we're playing somebody that's so ancient. Like they're so into Guilty Gear that they're learning a pocket character. Oh, that was just sick though. That was just, I'm doing it again. I shouldn't have done it again. I tried it. I'm dead. I'm dead. I'll tell. Ah, the command grab was nice. I should have jumped. I should have jumped. I should have jumped. Okay. All right. We can win this one. We can win this one. Oh, but I love doing that. It's such a, I think it's such a good mix. Oh, but what if though, let's go, let's go. Finally a win. All right. I could win this. I could win this. I'm starting to get Bridget now. And by get Bridget, I mean I'm popping off. Oh, let's go. I'll play a neutral now. I'll play a neutral now. Let's go. Okay. Okay. I burst these. I burst these. Ah, I thought I had that. All right. Damn. Oh, I lost the match. Okay. All right. Please. All right. I need one win here, dude. I need one win. I just need one win this entire video. Getting back to Guilty Gear is a rough life. Oh, why do I keep doing the kick move from that range? Does it make any sense? I'm bad at the game. Hold on. Hold on. Hold on. Hold on. Hold on. Hold on. I got this focus. I'm different. I'm a different breed. I got caught throwing the yo-yo. This is probably bad news. Decent range on his part. Oh my God. Oh, the sword range. Damn. It's hard not trading. I got to, I got to keep my health up so I can do these trades because I always die to trades. All right. Last possible game to get a win in. If there was ever a time to win, now is would be that time. I'm going to run up. Okay. Well, that was bad. Oh, no. He bursted there. I don't think I should have even bursted there. Oh, rough. I thought if I held the line up, I could maybe get it. I mean, great enough for him. Oh, oh, oh. Not a fan. Not a fan. Not a fan. Not a fan of how that one went for me. God. Oh my God. I bounced out so quick. No way. I missed it. Oh my God. I'm terrible. I can't do it, dude. I can't wait. I can't wait. I can't wait. I can't win. I just needed a win. Oh my gosh. Life is so hard. All right. I'm going one more. I feel like I, it's really my defense, right? My defense is what's really letting me down. Don't get me wrong. My offense is bad too. I've died to so many trades just in this video, but I just need one win. I could tell I'm right there. I'm using my brain. I just got to get one. Just one win. So let me play a bit slower. Let me play a bit slower and just think about my, let me think about all my actions here. Okay. I don't want to do the grab there. That's not great. Okay. Okay. I'm trying to steal stuff. I'm trying to steal. Okay. The dive was bad. I'm trying to think. God, I'm thinking so hard. Okay. The sweep is, the slash sweep is good. The slash sweep is good. I should use that more. Oh, I did not cancel out of that fast enough. Did not cancel out of that one fast enough. Okay. Okay. I've learned. I've learned. I've learned. I win these. I win these. That would have been a great anti-air if I hit it. A little bit of, a little bit of lag. Oh God. If I can get a counter hit, I can't do anything with that one though. Oh, that could have been sick though. Oh, nice DP. I forgot. I keep forgetting Bridget has a DP. No. I forget Bridget has a DP. I got to use that more too. Damn it. All right. All right. That's good. Learning, learning, learning, going. God, the learning process is going crazy right now. I'm going to do a whole other video where I just get wins as Bridget. Wait for it. Literally wait for the video. Go crazy. Don't believe me. Look at the next upload on this channel. The next upload on this channel is going to be me winning with Bridget. It's going to go crazy. Got the lag. Please. 90 frames. I was bored and I did. Oh, nice. Oh, DP. I forget about the DP. The DP is so nice. She doesn't seem like a character that would have a DP though. There we go. Good anti-air. And then I missed. Oh my God, dude. All right. All right. This one, this is going to be the one. This is going to be, it's going to hold. All right. We definitely win these. I'm feeling it. Oh, we actually win these. Oh, baby. Oh, I feel bad because the connection is definitely not holding up. But it is what it is. I DP here. Oh, I felt like a genius. Anti-air. Oh, you better cancel. You better cancel. You know the rules. You be here. Oh, give me the DP. You got to give me the DP. Oh my God. I didn't get the DP. I got the sweep. Oh, I gave him too much time to do that. Oh, Berset. No. No, please, please. Last match with the lag. I need it. I need it. No, no, no, no, no, no, no. What? That's not real. What do you mean? Layered cable disconnected. Layered cable connected. This was a rough video. This was a rough video. But I'll be back. I'm going to get some wins with Berset. Literally, watch this. Watch this. Next video, Bridget wins coming up.
