The Community Shows Its Love for a Newlywed Player via Guilty Gear Xrd -REVELATOR- Combo Videos

A well-known Japanese Venom player known as 310 (@310_progressive) just got married a few days ago, and in a supremely sweet gesture a congratulatory hashtag was created:

#310さんおめでとうコンボ

Under this hashtag, everyone posted combos that did exactly 310 damage, against Venom using 310’s benchmark color (white and red).

Venom has a staggering amount of options with how his pool ball projectiles interact, and 310 is known for pushing the character and creating fantastic tech and combos. It’s fitting that a pioneer of his character should receive so much love in the form of creative combos. To do this much damage—about 75% of Venom’s life—often requires utilizing full guard gauge or the Danger Time mechanic.

Here’s some favorites:

Leo, signing the guest book mid-combo:


Kum going ham with close Slash:


Slayer, with congratulatory clapping:


And of course, some Venom himself:


Beyond that, the trend has continued to other games, where 310 damage is a much different achievement:

Big congratulations to our Venom innovator, 310!
