  • Highlights all taken from my streams which can all be found on my twitch or this channel as well! Overall had a fun time with Slayer but the mechanics of Strive still elude me for now. Wild assault and drift rc a bit out of my grasp but who knows, maybe I'll get there and stream again come next monday.

    It works everytime you hit them with the pile bunker before they wallsplat like in 9:15, if you hit them with the pilebunker at the same time that they wallsplat that won't work

Heck, even its reboot losing literally core aspects and identity of the game carried along the journey. Is not a healthy relationship b/w the community. Mechanics can be bad at launch.

      ​​@@SSM24_ Tbh compared to previous entries. Strive remotely not anywhere close to older entries. Like GGX did to the missing link when game redesign and found its identity even Xrd has lot more excuses for its experiments. Having an anime game with an air option is gutted along with expression with combo. How you play. No longer feel your traditional anime fighter. Cherry on top juggling way to combo. Also the game is simplified in a very questionable way. Moreover, someone brought the topic and gave a valid reason. It started getting hard to ignore. Seeing people's comments makes me wonder if we follow the core or identity of the franchise. It's not like i hate it. But next game I like to remove juggling and give more like blazeblue ground recovery and some air options to the game.
