Overview
"I'll teach you...how to fight."
Backstory
Gordeau the Harvester was once a member of the Amnesia organization. One day during a war against the Bankikai, his friend Roger ends up getting turned into a fallen Void due to an unfortunate chain of events. Roger died that day at the hands of the Crimson Knight of Licht Kreis, Erika Wagner, and Gordeau, injured from the battle, could do nothing but watch it happen. After this, Gordeau leaves Amnesia to pursue revenge for his fallen friend instead. Since then, Gordeau has participated in many Hollow Nights, hoping to encounter the Crimson Knight of Licht Kreis again and avenge Roger.
Playstyle
Gordeau wields a scythe called the Demon Sickle "Devourer" that he can summon at will. The Scythe is very large and has a lot of reach. As a result, you'll find that Gordeau has normals, specials and partner skills that have a lot of reach and hit in wide arcs. This allows Gordeau to control a lot of ground space in neutral, making it difficult for others to approach him freely.
Although Gordeau is capable of controlling a lot of space thanks to his scythe, whiffing these scythe normals put him at a severe disadvantage because they have a lot of recovery, often leaving him open to being punished. Gordeau also doesn't move very fast. To make the most of Gordeau, you'll need to learn to judge your spacing well and optimally make use of his long reaching options.

EXS of Greed : Snatcher
Gordeau EXS gives him the unique ability to form purple claws on his right hand that he can use to rip pieces of a person's soul from them. In Under Night in Birth, this unique ability was adapted into his gameplay by allowing his Assimilation command grabs to steal GRD. However, in BlazBlue Cross Tag Battle this ability allows Gordeau to steal a chunk of his opponent's Skill Gauge and add it to his own. His meter steal is static for each attack, meaning it is unaffected the 180 frame meter-build cooldown that normally occurs after using Skill Gauge. This also makes it good at the end of long combos where normal meter build becomes low.
The following moves will steal some of the opponent's Skill Gauge on hit:
- All versions of Rusty Nails (5AAAA and 6P)
- All versions of Assimilation (5BBB and 214X)
- Mortal Slide - Divest
Note: While blocking or getting hit usually grants meter, Gordeau's EXS attacks don't grant any meter on hit on top of the meter it steals from opponents.

5C
5C | Template:AttackDataHeader-BBTag | ||||
---|---|---|---|---|---|
While most characters generally only use 5C as a last resort, the fact that Gordeau has an arcing airdash (which is much slower and reactable than normal air dashes), has only two air overheads (j.A and j.B) with the first being prone to whiffing against crouching opponents, and has no other grounded overheads means that he actually relies quite a bit on 5C to mix-up opponents. His is an assault style 5C, meaning its safe on block but has longer start-up than normal 5C's. |
2A
2A | Template:AttackDataHeader-BBTag | ||||
---|---|---|---|---|---|
Old 2A. Primarily used to interrupt an opponent's pressure or enact his own stagger pressure. Can be whiffed on purpose after some normals like 5B to make them safe or at least less unsafe. Gordeau's reversal action is quite slow so using this button on wake-up against poorly planned or timed oki may just prevent Gordeau from being safe-jumped. |
2B

2C

Slides along the ground, giving it great range and a ton of actives. On block, cancel into 2A or 5A to get a jump cancel. |
j.A
j.A | Template:AttackDataHeader-BBTag | ||||

j.B
j.B | Template:AttackDataHeader-BBTag | ||||
---|---|---|---|---|---|
Pretty good for a normal. Can be used as a tricky overhead, an empty jump, or combo-filler. If hitting an airborne opponent with this, you can let yourself drop to the ground and squeeze in a few more hits. |

Partner Skills
6P
6P Rusty Nail |
Template:AttackDataHeader-BBTag | ||||
---|---|---|---|---|---|
The first of Gordeau’s great assists. This gives a ton of untechable stun on hit and can be done from a healthy range. It's downside is the fact its the slowest assist. |
5P
5P Grim Reaper |
Template:AttackDataHeader-BBTag | ||||
---|---|---|---|---|---|
Gordeau's most versatile assist. Starts and extends combos, gives a lot of safety for you on block. |
4P
4P Aim Opening/Precise Aim |
Template:AttackDataHeader-BBTag

---|---|---|---|---|---|
Gordeau performs the first act of Precise Aim. This move may be a tad situational, but it gives you a hard knockdown that makes combo extension a breeze. |
