Kiisha Puts His Extensive Faust Knowledge on Display in Guilty Gear Xrd -SIGN-

While combo videos are often used solely to entertain the community, high-level players regularly put together their own exhibitions as a way to share a bunch of knowledge at once. Such is the case with Kiisha’s latest Guilty Gear Xrd -SIGN- video, which demonstrates a number of interesting scenarios for series regular Faust.

In the video below, you’ll find quite a bit of Faust technology jam-packed into just a few minutes of footage, including some nasty fuzzy guard setups, interesting oki options, and a whole lot more. Give it a watch below and let us know what you think.

If you’re interested in seeing what Kiisha brings to tournaments, he will be participating in Toshin-Gekitotsu later this month as part of the Pro Gamer Alliance with MCZ|Daigo Umehara, HORI|sako, and others later this month.
