Dead Angle Attacks, R.I.S.C, Guts and Burst Overdrives Explained in Latest Guilty Gear Crash Course Episode

The saying “the devil’s in the details” is especially true when it comes to a fighting game like Guilty Gear. Episode 20 of YouTuber Novrilattaki’s Guilty Gear Crash Course series focuses on the details of the lesser-known meter systems and unique attacks that make up the intricate mechanics of Guilty Gear Xrd -REVELATOR-

These details that Novril refers to as “small topics” are Dead Angle Attacks, R.I.S.C, as well as Guts and Burst Overdrives. It is possible to enjoy Guilty Gear Xrd -REVELATOR- at a casual level without ever understanding these mechanics or even knowing they exist, but one could easily argue that they are essential to achieving a high level of competitive play.

With all the stunning upsets at Capcom Cup that culminated in the rise of the United States on the Street Fighter map, it was even more necessary for them to discuss the changing climate of the tournament scene. As such, the three also discussed how much the perceived skill gap between the USA and Japan has changed over the course of this year.
