Looked to me that after fafnir you can do something into 6HS for knockdown. The Sol I saw doing it in training mode would cancel into a whiffed GF feint and jump in afterward. Could possibly be some sorta safejump set up. Time will tell if that's actually true though

I figured that was the case. Thanks for the clarification! And yea, I've played Gear for a while and have been sticking with Sol for a good bit, but as my community grows (we're all kinda new at picking up Gear for the most part) I've found myself left in the dustloop so I figured I'd come to you guys for advice. Thanks again everybody. I really need to start playing with my local folks a ton more.

Thanks for the great responses folks. All of this has been really helpful stuff, even some of the stuff I already knew. It's nice to hear things solidified and know that some stuff you're doing is right :P Question about Gunflame and Bandit Revolver, though the wiki says they are -2 and -3 respectively, that's not always gonna be the case right? VR-Raiden mentioned that there are instances that Revolver can be + on block. So if Gunflame or BR hits a bit later it's probably gonna be better on block? Cuz there have been many times where I would end strings with Gunflame every now and then, and it'll hit on like the last pillar of flame (it shoots out like, 4 or something right) and it's always lurking in the back of my head "well shit that's like -2 so i probably shouldn't try to do stuff" even though it may not necessarily be the case. I appreciate all these responses haha. Y'all are like mice lurking in a wall or some shiz waiting for cheese. Nothin really seems to be going on around here then you see a new post and BAM tons of conversation. Thank you very much.

I'll kick this off I guess? Hi. Two questions. I hope they don't sound too stupid. How do I deal with the neutral game with Sol? I feel like most of my matches consist of me just kinda standing there afraid to press a button because every time I do so I seem to get counter hit. It's especially apparent with characters with better reach, such as Faust. Poking with f.Slash seems like the obvious choice, and if it hits then I can HS into fafnir to get closer. If they block f.slash what comes next? Gatling into 2S and look for another chance to poke? Gunflame? Bandit Revolver provided I'm not too close to get thrown? Next question, what do I do once I've got that knock down? There's the choice of going for a gunflame FRC and trying some sort of mixup, though Kyle had offered me the advice of "just do a jump in. go j.S into j.HS and do a mix up," which seemed to be working fine, but I can't help but wonder there are better options? Overall, I feel like matches seem out of my control. I work to be able to get in, and when I get in, I get some damage, but then I'm kinda flailing about and unable to mix up to keep myself in and press that advantage. I realize these are a lot of kinda vague and dumb questions, but this is the Q&A thread so... Also a tad off topic but, would any of y'all be interested in a Sol Badguy Skype chat group or something of the sort as a way to chat and shoot ideas back and forth to each other? A friend had an Aigis Skype group going for the Persona players and that seemed to work nicely for a while.

Kain's going out of town the weekend of the event. So he won't be around. Well, he'll be around Friday and Saturday, but not Sunday. -

Back from my college orientation lol. Most it felt like a pretty pointless experience, but heck, college life might be fun. Oh Milln, dig that Garen dubstep off your phone and upload it. I can't find it anywhere :/ -

I don't know why, but this made me laugh more than it should've. Regarding Sunday, we already talked Milln. Kain and I will probably stop by provided he's able to go (and I'd bum a ride off him D:) otherwise I won't be able to come by :/ also, the parental figure is having company over on the weekend of the event, and she wants to kick me outta the house. You think it's possible for me to stay at your place for the weekend? Plenty of Blaz n shiz. Otherwise I'll just chill at Kain's.
