Another Evolution has come and gone, and what a tournament it was! This was the first time that the finals were held in an arena, separate from the main venue. As this is the second year that Guilty Gear Xrd was at Evo, the amount of foreign participants increased so competition was fiercer than ever. By now, you have probably already seen the Guilty Gear tournament footage, but if not, then logichole streamed pools. The finals were streamed on the usual srkevo1 channel, but I would actually advise against watching the main English stream. The […]

The Japanese version of Guilty Gear Xrd -REVELATOR- is out! Kum and Raven are included in the release, so if you cannot wait for the US release(which is coming out in a few days), be sure to get it now! If you need help learning a character, Dustloop is still recommended but nowadays it seems that most of the discussion has moved to Discord. The list of available Guilty Gear related Discord channels can be accessed here. I talked about the Youdeal Battlemania exhibitions in the previous post, and although they were pay per view, […]

The Mikado teespring campaign has relaunched! It already met its initial goal, meaning that they were able to use the funds to fly in some of the Mikado regulars to Evo for Guilty Gear.

But his internet and computer could not handle it for long, so it was always back to […]

Woshige has been absent from pretty much all Guilty Gear Xrd -REVELATOR- footage, perhaps because of his work in being the battle director for Street Fighter V. But this week that all changed, because he traveled to the Kanto region and got a bunch of recorded matches in! Even if you don’t play Millia, these matches are a great watch as you can learn so much about how to play against this character. Especially in the Woshige vs Mocchi set, you can really see how the matches are determined by the neutral game interaction. First […]

Jack-O goodness

So the Guilty Gear Xrd -REVELATOR- PS4 demo is out for both US and Japan, and Jack-O has been getting a lot of tech worked out for her. Perhaps as a response, 2djazz on Twitter was able to set up two exhibitions this past weekend featuring top Japanese Jack-O players. So there is plenty of material to study here for anyone who wants to learn her. These exhibitions are also special because they have English commentary! First up was mike Jack-O vs Hase Slayer, both of whom need no introduction. This was streamed at Mikado, […]
