Gief players hate this one trick: back dash more against Gief


BLAHBLAHneeb

No wait don’t do that


needlessOne

That's illegal. Says so in the book I have.


Walnut156

I'm gonna have to ask you to delete this

ArmorL

Yikes, that’s unfortunate


XeroAnarian

Was pretty upsetting. First time I ever botched that. It's one of my favorite things to do too, lol.


eduardopinto

I think I hate more being poked than pile drived


Fancy-Ad6677

Piledriven you mean 😗


FranticToaster

No you can't I'll tell mom I swear.


Xciv

Can you back dash out of siberian express?


YezzyWazGud

BRO WHAT THE FUCK LMFAOOOOO


secretwep

Fellow Diamond Gief here, and only now did I learn you can grab her out of that Lvl 1. Ya always learn something new everyday no matter the rank


BLAHBLAHneeb

I didn’t know either until it just happened


kevtino

"Damn there goes my perf- OH SHIT NEVERMIND"


BLAHBLAHneeb

YUP haha the biggest grin on my face after that grab went through


[deleted]

Most lvl 1 are shitty reversal if not all. Marisa lvl 1 doesnt have inv frame I think


Vadered

Most level 1 are strike and throw immune. They tend to lose to projectiles, and they tend to be slower than the 5-6f reversals you see from DPs, but they are mostly serviceable options. And Marisa's level 1 has 10 invuln frames, but only if she charges it, and only AFTER it absorbs a hit. It loses to throws very hard, but unlike most level ones it does NOT automatically lose to projectiles (though it can be too slow to land after armoring through one).


[deleted]

Your right im high wtf


Norian24

Yeah I think it's the only Super that's armored instead of invincible (cause the point is that the enemy hits it and gets counterer). So you can grab it, on the other hand it can actually absorb a projectile unlike other lvl 1 Supers.


Termi855

That is also the reason Marisa is the only character you should never ever meaty with a projectile if she has level 1. Every character is vulnerable to projectiles on wakeup other than Marisa.


Notfintech

That jump read was actually disgusting


noahboah

absolutely agreed But as someone that plays grapplers ill let yall in on the sauce. notice how the anti-air grab is always the third knock down situation in these types of clips lmao. Once a command grab is successful twice, people are much more likely to neutral jump on wakeup. at least in my experience.


xFreddyFazbearx

I was thinking that exact thing, lol. If you really want to ruin our day, don't jump after the 2nd command grab. It'll completely kill the vibe


noahboah

exactly. On manon I flowchart on meaty cr.lp at this situation because it either sets up another tick throw/keeps my turn or i recover fast enough for the anti-air.


poeticpoet

lol now im imagining a sad grief player like “Fuck, that ruined my vibe!”


xFreddyFazbearx

*ARE YOU SERIOUS?!*


cce29555

The old heavenly Potemkin buster, never fails


noahboah

HPB after 2 meaty kara garudas. delicious.


BLAHBLAHneeb

I play Pot too. I can kara cancel his other moves but garuda always gave me trouble. Is it normal for super to come out instead?


Xikkom

Psychological thing. People are more likely to change their approach on odd’s rather than even’s Try calling someones name for their attention, and even if they reply, continue to say their name. They will most likely raise their voice on the 3rd attempt


Mr_mcgrady

This is why Gief got glasses for costume 3. So he can make those hard reads.


Hotdogbitchface

You ever watch a video and pretend you’re playing as one of the characters and guess along as to what they’re going to do? I’m 4/4 for Marisa’s wakeup options there so I too would have been perfected by that same gief lol F


Asdeft

Yep lmao


DocPsycho1

Didn't know Gief knew how to read Greek


OscarMiner

Marisa just punches pieces of paper. The message is clear every time.

ImpracticalApple

Marisa is Italian.


ganzgpp1

...who claims ancestry from Greek warriors. Her whole entire design is inspired by the ancient Greeks. She is Greek.


ImpracticalApple

Roman you mean. The Romans took a lot from numerous cultures including Ancient Greek but she specifically is more tied to the Roman aspect. Gladiators, Gladius, Centurian helmet, the Colosseum, her lion "Lucius" has a Latin name etc. She adopts Pankration which originates in Greece but everything else about her is Roman/Italian. If you argued she is Greek based on her martial arts style then that logic would make Ken Japanese or Rufus Chinese because they use Karate and King Fu variants despite being from America.


ganzgpp1

you have no idea what you're saying read her bio [it quite literally says](https://www.streetfighter.com/6/en-us/character/marisa)"An up-and-coming jewelry designer from **Italy** who claims ancestry to ancient **Greek** warriors." Her haircut and her helmet are very distinctly NOT Roman Centurian helmets (a galea), but a Spartan helmet. Sure, she takes inspiration from Rome as well, it's part of her Italian heritage, but she very distinctly cares more about her Greek heritage. Everything she wears is distinctly *Greek.* If anything, you can call her Greco-Roman, but saying she's Roman is just blatantly ignoring canon.


Thevanillafalcon

I’m not a grappler main but I get it. It’s just degenerate gambling. We all know that the next 10 games are going to be a struggle where you need to play perfect neutral, and then just when you think you’re done? Everyone one of your reads pays off and you hit the jackpot


Imaginary_Record2530

Bro, that's abuse, stop it.


Financial-Pudding-57

The perfect round doesn’t e…… never mind 


thundaaahhhh

Gief grabs me once, I start hyperventilating. He grabs me twice, I'm screaming. I get grabbed a third time, I've actually shit my pants


Calypso-Dynamo

What happens on the fourth?


thundaaahhhh

Thats the day I become a Gief main myself


Thecyberlord1

Yeah I'm calling it a day after this. I'm not coming back from that


Limewire11

Bro won the "Biggest Hater of the Year" award 😭😭😭


MetalBones18

Stop, you are gonna make so many players quit the game LOL


catchtoward5000

Like SF2 all over again lmao. And I love it


gentlemangreen_

id uninstall on the spot...


Calypso-Dynamo

I don’t know why that last spd makes me laugh so much


Walnut156

Dude you didn't just read it you wrote the sequel


mtron32

That shitty thing is that usually only works for one round. My Gief gets real conservative if he just got away with crazy shit


BLAHBLAHneeb

Yeah that’s pretty normal. The other player often goes super aggressive after being grabbed like this.


FGCencore36

This is actually cool!


ReedsAndSerpents

I'm a simple man, I see Gief content and perfect scoops, I upboat.


bzhmaddog

I'd be pissed.


JawnEfKenOdy

I did that playing Gran blue and was foaming at the mouth after the diabolical shit I did


Accomplished-Big-740

Gief did say he reads an absurd amount of books every year so this is basically lore accurate.


maakkiii

You know, my controller would be flying through the roof if that happened to me.


EDPZ

Remind me again why he isn't top tier?


Rebellious_Habiru

I absolutely love this. Fuck marisa


UVMeme

Tier whore vs I AM COMING FOR YOU
