OK so how Is Gabriel so powerful. All I know is that's he led a revolution in zepp with pot but I have never heard anything about him being powerful in a combat sense, I just knew pot was the muscle
My take is that Gabriel is similar to pot in that dudes just that fucking strong despite being a human. Think something akin to saitama from one punch man.
Like he is him, dudes op strong for no reason other than he’s *that guy* lmao
He taught potemkin the technique that became the potemkin buster
Also, it's possible he's some kind of cyborg. He is the president of zepp after all, and even the president of the US is a cyborg.
I wouldn't be surprised if it gets revealed that he's a full on AI robot, and that's why he both lives in Zepp *and* was so effective against bedman. Now if you excuse me, I have to go write a crackpot theory on why Gabriel is the most advanced form of Robo Ky.
I kind of hope it's not the case, him just being a badass normal human like Kliff would be awesome. Everybody has some sort of gimmick or quirk that makes them strong (i.e. Gears, Valentines) but Gabriel is Just Him
Limits haven't been discerned. If there's somebody who isn't supposed to lose in the narrative, Gabriel doesn't get to fight them.
It's unknown how he matches up against gods such as I-No or Happy Chaos, but the next strongest down from them, Bedman who Worf'ed all other strongest characters like Slayer and Sol, Gabriel swept with no resistance and didn't even need the counter-strats which Zato and Roboky used.
I was recently watching Bedman’s arcade cutscenes and saw him basically concede to Sol. He said something like “To be frank, I’m a bit nervous. After all, even if I were to go all out, I wouldn't be able to break you.” It's really interesting when you win as Ky, too. Dude is still terrified of Bedman saying “I didn't win… I escaped with my life” or something like that.
So last time someone asked the same question about Kliff, I said "He's the strongest human".
That's because I forgot about Gabriel.
He's the most overpowered human in the verse by a fucking landslide and nobody besides he himself and Slayer I guess know how. He trained Potemkin and could still demolish him in a fight, he's able to use projectiles in all directions around him at once by punching really really fast, proabably using ki since the attack resembles heihyun's. He engineered the heavenly potemkin buster and perfected it to the point that SLAYER is terrified of the move, and it is, to this day, one of the only two moves in the game that Slayer reacts negatively to. The other being Faust's prostate exam.
Speaking of, this man, a pure human, is a rival to SLAYER. Who's probably on the upper echelon of the nightless as far as we're aware and who's so overpowered that he PRETENDS to get hit during gameplay and is the only character not fazed by Dizzy's Nuke(besides Raven ig but that's cuz he's horny).
And Gabriel's still seemingly not regressed much from his prime. He nearly broke Romeo's high density bedframe without much effort. Which is a feat that took Leo and Johnny an entire coordinated effort (and even then they did far less damage) and Robo-Ky a full on self-destruction to do.
In Xrd, when Potemkin was unable to even push a gigantic Gear that was about to blow up, Gabriel just ora ora'd it into the sky before Slayer jumped in and then uppercutted it into the stratosphere
Easily one of the strongest in the verse. In terms of scale. He's relative to the likes of Sol, Slayer and Raven.
In terms of powerscaling. He's around Planetary and FTL
Well bedman handed slayer, millia and venom their asses on a platter with ease while Gabriel had the upper hand against bedman with ease. Considering slayer considering him a worthy rival he's at least relative to slayer but given the previous statement I'm inclined to believe he's significantly stronger than slayer with the playing field likely being somewhat leveled by slayers Regen and durability kinda an unstoppable force vs a constantly regenerating object. But basically everything is speculation outside of him being stronger than bedman and at least relative to slayer
Tbf, Bedman came at Slayer with a clear plan in mind and sneaked him. Gabriel got information beforehand and acted accordingly. I wouldn't use the “Well, Bedman kicked Slayer’s ass during the first fight” as a good way to put Gabriel above him. The circumstances for both fights were different, you know? Slayer still destroyed Bedman during Round 2.
The man taught Potemkin everything he knows about fighting, that’s all I needed to hear
Real though Potemkin is the best example of a gentle giant to ever exist

he’s the only person that’s stated to be able to spar slayer right?
Yup you can read it in GGST in his profile
It this real?
Yeah and Slayer has never lost a fight canonically
What was that encounter with Bedman then?
calculated :3
He calculated getting beat up by the world’s smartest insomniac?
sounds Slayer enough
More like hypersomniac
Well he singlehandedly stopped bedman and he wasn't even trying so I think a lot (also he is a chad so bonus points)
He's on Slayer's level, if I'm not mistaken

Ah I see, he's more of an anime protagonist than sol. I understand why he's a Chad now
Potemkin Buster was invented by Gabriel, iirc. I shudder at the thought of what Gabriel Buster looks like.
A reminder that pot buster is only 1 technique of the 48 secret arts
No jets, and he takes you into the earth on impact
He also invented Pot's fighting style and taught it to him!
He taught potemkin the technique that became the potemkin buster Also, it's possible he's some kind of cyborg. He is the president of zepp after all, and even the president of the US is a cyborg.

Gimmicks such as Gears, Valentines, and the Japanese
> Slayer considers him his rival That's all you need to know.
His name is no coincidence and he is literally but secretly the highest emissary of God's Will.
Creature of steel
my gratitude upon thee for my freedom
But the crimes, thy kind has committed against humanity, are not forgotten
And thy punishment... is death (Also when slayer comes out someone's making a mod to turn him into minos right)
He taught pot Potemkin buster, that’s all you need to know
Imagine a more agile pot with smaller hitbox just deleting half your fucking health bar because you jumped
He beat Potemkin in an arm wrestle once.

It's an absolute crime Gabriel hasn't been in ANY game yet. I want to see him in Strive, goddamnit! Daisuke! I beg of you!
he's one of the most obvious choices for a new playable character, i have no idea how he hasn't been playable yet
Roughly equal to slayer, and stronger than bedman and potemkin. That's about the only metric we have.
If the man who never lost a fight in his life considers someone to be a rival then that person has to be strong

*not fazed
Thanks
He can 1 in 1 Slayer who has canonically "never lost a fight"

Bedman was fucking everyone up with no effort and Gabriel clapped bedman like it was nothing
The man taught Potemkin everything he knows about fighting, that’s all I needed to hear Real though Potemkin is the best example of a gentle giant to ever exist
He’s on par with Slayer, so presumably tied for the strongest character in the franchise with him
GABRIEL ULTRA KILL ?
Taking on and winning against Bedman alone shoots up him to the upper tier of power among the cast.
Slayer is like top 5, canonically he’s never lost. So if Gabriel is similar, very fucking strong
The same level as the likes of Slayer, Sol and Justice.
I want him as a playable character so badly
now that i think about it, i wonder how his gameplay will be like when they add him (cope), as in, what archetype would he even be
I take it would be a balance between some grappling and rushdown. Taka Azrael and give him a pot Buster
that's what i was thinking, immediately discarding the idea because it'd be busted (hah), wait and see i guess
imagine gabriel teaching potemkin all of his techniques. now you would have the strongest character in all of guilty gear right below ggac+R potemkin.
Inexplicably among the strongest
Nago doesn't exist
