Crowfall: Victory is Teamwork

Victory is Teamwork

Dead or Alive Community Releases Beginners Strategy Guide for Dead or Alive 5 Last Round

DOA5_Top_Tier_Tips_guide_622_crop

Many games these days, including fighting games, are often released alongside strategy guides to help players acclimate themselves to their mechanics. While these guides contain a decent amount of information about the game they cover, they’re usually not enough to get players started in truly playing the game at a competitive level.

To address this, Dead or Alive players Legendary Goken and Force of Nature have decided to create their own strategy guide for the franchise’s latest release, Dead or Alive 5 Last Round.

Top Tier Tips is a beginners guide that covers some of the more intricate aspects of Last Round’s system, including punishes, usage of throws and offensive holds, the stun system, stagger escapes, side steps, fuzzy guards, and more.

While it doesn’t highlight some of the more advanced mechanics in the interest of not becoming too complex for new players, it should be enough to prepare beginners for matches with actual opponents.

Interested folks should check the guide out here.
