May's beach ball goes away if she gets hit

---

All other DI moves are like AC
DI is time based and sol gets tired like always when it wares off

---

I saw ride the lightening invuln frames on start up pass right through dark angel

---

Venom has corner air loop combo vs PO for like 3 reps using the new dust. K s HS d, jump again repeat.
Saw 2 reps work mid screen on Ky

---

All Ky's projectiles including the super one are enhanced by the lightening seals. Each one gets different effects. RTL doesn't do anything w seal.

---

Sol's stage is totally a mixed random mess of all things 'Merca! There's even a fat sherrif guy that one bites entire hamburgers at once, and he's very fat. Sitting under his American flag with his feet up on a barrel that says "danger"

---

ALL RCs slow down time just to clarify

---

Venom can charge his new QV move to make the balls as large as charge stinger aim

---

If you have full bar, venom can summon his new super ball twice and they both remain on screen.

---

Millias new 6hs does 2 hits and 2nd hit knocks down. Long range

---

After you win a round you can still do an extra hit or so against opponent and you can even RC if you have meter for fun

---

Forward follow up dust combos are possible mid screen but timing is a little stricter than in corner or using up follow up

---

When one player is very high up and the other is off screen, a small red gear with their face can be seen on the bottom of screen to show location

Edit: color if gear varies

---

I have not seen any wall stick. Fafnir does ground slide but it is unclear what combining off it is like

---

When Chipp's rapid ground hit super is blocked, he doesn't do the DP at the end making it harder to punish but I'm not sure exactly how safe it is

---

Aside from his 4 attacks when on the wall, Chipp can climb up and down by pressing up or down. He can also press forward to dismount. He will automatically dismount after a couple seconds. You can throw up to 3 kunais while on wall

Speed of shuriken varies for his air special

---

Horizontal dolphin looks like it has more start up according to expert May player, Capps Indigo

---

Ok guys. I'm on the train back to my city. I had a great time playing Xrd and just want to make sure that everyone knows you can trust me when I say we have nothing to worry about. The game is on good hands and the bottom line is this IS Guilty Gear! It feels true to the XX games while making things feel fresh and familiar at the same time. It lowers barriers to entry without taking away the complexity that veterans appreciate. Of course this is not even close to the final version but I'm sure based on all the feedback they are getting from surveys that any tweaks will be for the better. All the Tokyo area top players and regulars I fight were there so everyone will be giving smart and constructive feedback. So, today is a good day to be a GG player. Our scene shall thrive as it did in the glory days once more. For now, play that +R and start building your local scenes so that when Xrd drops we can hit the ground running! I hope to see a ton of you at my GG major, Frosty Faustings VI this winter (check tournaments and events forum for details).

I can't test anything else but ill be posting a little more info and am happy to answer more Qs based on what I know. My friend Capps is still at the test and said he will be posting some more May stuff soon so check that out later as well. Keep rockin and stay metal.

Here is all I know about danger time. I only saw it happen one time and never experienced it when playing. When the clash happens the game stops for a moment and a big "Danger" sign appears and the background changes. From there both players start neutral and can move freely. I guess the first one to get a hit gets something but I am not sure what. I'm uncertain but I think danger time wares off after a set ammount of time if no one scores a hit fast enough and I think this is what I witnessed. This is all I know for now.

---

For Millias new rose super, I want to clarify a little more. Its like Rose Install lol. It activates like DI but when it wares off there is no penalty, it just wares off. Millia flashes white while activated. Wherever she moves, she sets roses behind her on the screen. I'm not sure if you need to be doing something specific like hitting buttons or if it constantly comes out. The roses remain for a couple seconds and the opponent gets hit if they touch without blocking. A good way to use it is activate after knockdown and the do roll or the air falling teleport move to cross over the opponent to surround them with roses. From there, mix that **** up. You could also use it to cover your ass when falling back and maybe make a shield to safely activate secret garden. I'm sure there will be others uses and maybe even awsome combos that use it but I haven't seen anyone try any yet.

More on RC time slow. All RCs slow time. What it reminds me of is Amaterasu time slow super in Marvel 3 but of course it only lasts a very short time. This is mostly for the YRC like when you use on whiff or projectile cancel. For connected hits that you RC it reminds me of Johnny's air super in +R how the opponent slowly floats but it doesn't last nearly as long and isn't quotes as slow. Essentially it just makes it easier to combo more after an RCed hit. It will probably lead to a few more damaging combos but nothing rediculous and it makes combos with RCs easier for noob players. I also don't see there bring cheap unblockable a resulting from YRC projectiles. It essentially just recreates things like FRC you flame pressure but in a different way. Of course these are just my impressions and observations and anything is subject to change as it is still early. I hope that clarify things.

Still wondering if Ky's DP can still be low profiled
Does Venom's Bishop Run Out stay on the screen for the entirety of the remainder of a round?
How is Chipp's health, is it still ass?
Is Ky's lunge move, Split Ciel I think, a way for him to get in close, akin to Bandit Revolver, as in can he use it to extend his pressure and as a combo extender?
How exactly are Ky's projectiles amplified by Grinders, more damage are they bigger, are they faster, increased hitstun/blockstun? I'm really curious about this.
Based off of the Xrd announcement trailer, Sol's grand viper is back to its ****ty recovery ways, is it as unsafe as it used to be in older games before they changed it in AC?
DI, I'm not sure sorry.

Ky, not sure what you mean.

Venom super ball, hell no lol. It wares off either by time or use but im not sure, but you can hit it several times. It bounces off walls and the opponent

Chipp health, still lowest in the cast I'd say.

Ky's lunge move is more of a combo ender and nets you a hit and a seal. You can OtG it to set a seal up right on the opponent or you can combo into it from non OTG and it knocks down. Not very safe on block but not super unsafe like his slide.

Grand V, it's like reload, unsafe. I'm not sure if you can mash hits either. I couldn't seem to but maybe I suck at it?

---

Oh and grinders, regular stun edge is like an instant vertical lightening bolt. Charge stun edge is like a lightening by that stays out for a little and does many hits. I saw Sol jump over Ky charge stun edge and air dash I. To punish but the stun edge got enhanced by a seal and sol landed on it while he hit Ky and was knocked away. Super one is an even bigger one and looks like a sword and does more hits and damage

---

Basic PO combos should work. I did see FAB trying some stuff and missing but it might have been a distance thing and it was in an actual match and not just testing. I did personally ask him his impressions and he says right now PO is so-so in strength and be likes the new design. He says he isn't concerned because he expects many revisions over tests.

---

Basically to put it simply for Ky, performing a ground dust not only hits like a dust up close but it also leaves a seal on hit or even whiff, and air dust leaves a seal too but it also acts like his old air dust to control space. I don't think ground seal hits opponent. The new lunge move also sets a ground seal. Regardless of the type of seal, if you shoot a projectile and it passes through the seal it shoots a lightneng bolt as I described earlier from the actual seal. The bolt is same trajectory as the original projectile, so all ground ones just go straight forward. Get it now? Also seals disappear after about 2 seconds.

---

I am pretty sure you can YRC on recovery frames for normals. I couldn't test every frame of every move but aside from stuff that was intentionally designed to be unsafe on whiff like DPs, I think you can YRC most moves in the game. As I said, if u can't the game tells u by showing a red "X" over you.

I-No
