If you’re a recent transplant to the fighting game community, odds are you know BROKENTIER’s Kyohei “MarlinPie” Lehr as a world-class Marvel vs. Capcom 3 player, but earlier in his career he was known for his skills in a much different series: Guilty Gear.
With the release of Guilty Gear Xrd -SIGN-, numerous veterans have been making their way out of the woodwork to return to the beloved Arc System Works franchise, and Winter Brawl 9 saw quite a few fill spots in the top placings, Lehr included. His run through top sixteen saw only three dropped games in four matches thanks to his dominant use of Zato-1’s pressure and setup tools. He would eventually take home the gold.
Team Spooky has provided a complete look at the top eight matches that took place last weekend, the finals of which have been included below. Make sure to check out the full playlist for more footage.
