Defense

In Granblue Fantasy Versus, the best offense is an excellent defense.

Learning to block is a key factor to helping you win your battles. Knowing how to block moves that the opposing character will throw out and react accordingly will help you immensely in taking games. Some moves will have you blocking longer before others, while others will leave you in a position to begin your assault. In GBVS, there are two featured ways to block.

Grounded Blocking

Lancelot stand blocking Katalina's mid attack on the ground.
Lancelot incorrectly blocks low, resulting to being hit by Katalina's overhead attack.
While standing, you can either hold back to block, or hold the Block button to guard against attacks deemed high or mid.

If you block incorrectly, you will see an indicator that shows you that the attack was not blocked accordingly. It is always important to note that some forms of offense can't be blocked, such as throws or unblockable attacks.
