[Xrd] News & Gameplay Discussion 2 - Console is Out!

Recommended Posts

Looks like Elphelt DOES have her original color after all.

Also, Johnny's PS+ color looks awful. I'm sad now.

Oh and that hood on Raven is bitchin'.

No doubt now Raven will end up playable. That screenshot shows words scribbled over his horn.

 

Also I coulda sworn they said this Tuner character was a chick. But I'm not gonna lie I'm all for this big burly man version.

Still not used to the format yet, everything feels so "spaced out". O.o

Anyways, thanks for the pics.  Raven looks vastly different from his "gray paleface" self (though we haven't seen his 'corrupt eye' yet).

Also he's got a label on his head spike, so that's neat.

Oh yeah and I saw a pic of an old man with Johnny and May, but I am not sure if it's Tuner (since I heard Tuner was a female person).

I'd sooner believe the old man is Uncho Hirofumi (Johnny's Iaido Master).

...Why not both?

Well, either way, until we know for sure that it's "Chouritsushi" 調律師 we can't really say who is talking to whom.

They need to bring baiken and zappa since they in japan (my wishful thinking since I to main baiken. Again lol)

Yes man, we know. You say that every time some kind of news announcement comes from Arc.

it's pretty hype, though i don't get why machaboo is on the pro gamer side.

Yeah, I don't understand that as well. I'm not sure why he switched to Ky for this since he's been using Sol for Xrd.

I heard Machaboo was coaching Daigo, maybe that's why.

He's definitely been training Daigo since there's footage of the two playing together in that video I linked.

probably so it's not "all Sol team".   guess they have had like 3 or so trainin' sessions so far, streamed over both Nico's Umehara channel and PlayStation Japan YouTube channel

Also as a reminder, the entire event is a 10on10, so there are still several more match-ups to be determined.

On top of the currently undetermined match-up of an ARC REVOLUTION CUP 2015 finalist VS an EVO Championship Series 2015 finalist (as both Ogawa and Nage are already part of the pre-determined line-up, the EVO rep might end up being Woshige?), there are online qualifiers to determine the other 5 players on each team. 4 of these qualifiers have already been decided, with the remaining qualifier to occur this Sunday.

Guilty Gear Kings Army
Online Qualifier #1 Winner: Takehara (RA)
Online Qualifier #2 Winner: TAKA (SL)
Online Qualifier #3 Winner: Koichi (IN)
Online Qualifier #4 Winner: Kiisha (FA)
Online Qualifier #5 Winner: --

Pro Gamer Allied Forces
Online Qualifier #1 Winner: Nakamura (MI)
Online Qualifier #2 Winner: Nakasu Bedman (Hi no De~Last) [LOX] (BE)
Online Qualifier #3 Winner: Roi (SO)
Online Qualifier #4 Winner: Mocchi [Mugen] (SO)
Online Qualifier #5 Winner: --

There's a good chance that everyone that qualified will play the equivalent qualifier on the opposing team seeing as the site layout seems to indicate that everyone plays the person opposite them. Also, looking at the teams so far, it's no wonder that Machaboo is playing Ky. If he was playing Sol, the Pro Gamer team would be guaranteed 50% Sol minimum with places still to be determined.

I don't really know what players look like, but the guy with his fist in his palm on the red side looks like he's trying to steal the other team's lunch money. I hope I'm off to watch this.

Thats none other than FAB :)
