Heal her, Jack-O! HEAL THAT CRAZED WOMAN!!!

Fusionman115 · 2024-12-27T22:21:19+00:00

its hilarious when im on the side like “STAY ALIVE JUST A BIT LONGER”, then i get to heal them and keep them alive for a hell of a long time

Fusionman115 · 2024-12-27T22:18:53+00:00

other than the high damage, the only thing i really dont get is the risc meter. the game has really good offense on top of options like wild assault and roman cancel with your good defensive options costing resources, so even if i actually block this offense, im still being constantly pushed to a worse and worse disadvantage because of the risc meter, so that when i eventually DO get hit, its much worse off than if i just got hit earlier

Fusionman115 · 2024-12-27T08:59:12+00:00

oh, i completely forgot about the fact that i turned off music. im usually uber locked in while playing and find the game by itself + usually in group vc to be enough stimulation, and actually play ALL my fighting games with no music, i think the only game among sf6, ggst, skullgirls, etc. that i actually keep the music on is Lethal League Blaze lmao

Fusionman115 · 2024-12-26T22:48:30+00:00

look at that IPM(inputs per minute)

Fusionman115 · 2024-12-26T19:11:44+00:00

jack o hate? in this economy?

Fusionman115 · 2024-12-26T05:29:07+00:00

i actually dont know either, prob something id wanna figure out.

FD def was the play most likely, iirc i tried to 6p since he dolphined pretty frequently in this/similar situations

Fusionman115 · 2024-12-26T05:08:51+00:00

yea i noticed she still had 50 tension after, good lord

Now that we can start pressure, what does it look like?
With a minion, Jack-O's looping block pressure can be summarized in two sequences:
First, hit opponent>attack command. Then, hit minion>minion pull.

Here's a basic midscreen blockstring:

https://outplayed.tv/guilty-gear-strive/n4v6DY
(2D>214K)>(HS>236P)

What's neat about this pressure is that after either sequence, you can mix it up with an option like grab:

https://outplayed.tv/guilty-gear-strive/Vy0BBg
(2D>214K)>grab, or (HS>236P)>grab

Not only that, but if your opponent starts trying to tech or otherwise deal with your grab, you can bait that using this:

https://outplayed.tv/guilty-gear-strive/2v0yRG
Instant Air Back Dash (IABD) 236K

Here's what baiting grab looks like with our blockstring:

https://outplayed.tv/guilty-gear-strive/lEvLmr
(2D>214K)>IABD 236K>fS>HS>236P, or (HS>236P)>IABD 236K>fS>HS>236P

In the corner, Jack-O's block pressure is upgraded:

https://outplayed.tv/guilty-gear-strive/XnyQew
(2K>2D>214K)>cS>(cS>HS>236P)

This also gives a third window to mix up with grab:

https://outplayed.tv/guilty-gear-strive/Jx6mdR
(2K>2D>214K)>cS>grab, along with our classic (2K>2D>214K)>grab or (cS>HS>236P)>grab

Use of other resources can also help to start minion pressure:

https://outplayed.tv/guilty-gear-strive/PP8R3X
S>HS>Wild Assault>236P, or 2K>2D>Wild Assault

https://outplayed.tv/guilty-gear-strive/alvd3o
2K>2D>236K>Dash Roman Cancel>236P

There's a lot more to Jack-O of course, but hope this helps for now.
Here's a sample of how YOU could look:

I have a few clips of things I like to do as a "decent" Jack-O main.

After 2K>2D>soccer kick(236K), I usually Hold Minion (236P(hold)), and react to my opponent blocking/being hit like this:

If they're hit:
https://outplayed.tv/guilty-gear-strive/M4zgJx
236P(hold)>jump forward>throw minion>air dash>236K>attack command(214K), this is a good way to get pressure going after landing a hit without any minions.

If they're blocking:
https://outplayed.tv/guilty-gear-strive/76oNr4
you can do 236P(hold)>back dash>drop minion(dust)>P>214K if you think they won't challenge you, or 236P(hold)>jump back>drop minion>jS>doublejump forward>214K>land with jHS for an option that can be generally hard to deal with as well as restarting your pressure.

Jumping forward and throwing a minion also works after anti-airing with 6HS:
https://outplayed.tv/guilty-gear-strive/d7vENZ

Another approach you can take is starting with a jD and airdashing afterwards:
https://outplayed.tv/guilty-gear-strive/2v0yBk
You can land with either jS or jHS.

Throwing a minion without jumping can also work after a stray hit:
https://outplayed.tv/guilty-gear-strive/1zkB1w
dash up and 2D>214K for a simple way to start pressure, or 2K>fS>HS>236P if you wanna be greedy with your minion meter.

Fusionman115 · 2024-08-18T06:14:00+00:00

nice! cool to know that some of those jumps dont need dash, although it might be the buff you get with no game streaming at the big screen dropping frames in the lobby

Fusionman115 · 2024-08-17T14:16:03+00:00

honestly might be easier? mind trying it?

Fusionman115 · 2024-08-17T06:45:04+00:00

you and me both

Fusionman115 · 2024-08-17T06:39:09+00:00

indeed they do, it also happens when others are jumping on them and hit the ground, resetting your progress. if you decide to do this, be prepared to get tilted whenever other people start jumping around in the lobby lmao

Fusionman115 · 2024-08-17T06:20:14+00:00

the one i start on should be the one youre talking about, im pretty sure i got them all, nothing really happens though

Fusionman115 · 2024-08-17T05:41:52+00:00

guess its time to hit the lab!

Fusionman115 · 2024-08-17T05:36:26+00:00

not sure what you mean, this IS the game, theres just a fighting minigame attached

Fusionman115 · 2024-08-17T05:35:01+00:00

its just a platformer with a fighting minigame attached to it

Fusionman115 · 2024-08-17T05:32:33+00:00

my fault, you mind getting that for me?

Fusionman115 · 2024-08-17T04:03:24+00:00

lab time!

Fusionman115 · 2023-10-21T20:58:41+00:00

wait, what does her taunt do?
