Despite his appearance, Potemkin is actually a very intelligent calculating individual who dislikes fighting, only doing it when absolutely necessary. He is also generally kind to others, and is capable of keeping his patience even when the person he's speaking to isn't being necessarily friendly. | ||

{{Description|6|text=Your go-to anti-air. Potemkin sits down and claps his big metal hands in front of his face.

{{Description|6|text=A lunging shoulder tackle. Potemkin clears a surprising amount of space in a short amount of time with this move, and it has enough blockstun to make canceling it into Hammerfall Brake positive on block.

{{Description|6|text=Potemkin rears back, then throws his upper body forward with a massive double punch. His longest reaching normal, and also his most damaging.

{{Description|6|text=Potemkin turns on his heel to deliver a long-range sweep. Low, with decent startup considering its reach. Though negative on block, its range means you're unlikely to be punished even up close, and gives it some viability as a tick grab setup. Can also be used on oki when you're too far away for {{clr|2|5K}} but still want to tag the opponent with a low. But in general you're better off only using this on grounded combos for the knockdown, and sticking with Hammerfall cancels for pressure. | |||

{{Description|6|text=A quick elbow jab. Potemkin bunches up into a ball for this one, shrinking his hurtbox somewhat, but not enough to make a huge difference. Cancels into itself and all his other aerial attacks, and is a good choice for air-to-air combat. If the opponent blocks, keep pressing it until you both land and you can set up pressure or go straight for a grab. Additionally, since {{clr|3|j.S}} gatlings back into {{clr|1|j.P}}, you can use {{clr|3|j.S}} as a jump-in, cancel into {{clr|1|j.P}} if they block, then use the reduced blockstun to put them into a Buster (or bait their escape attempt!). | |||

{{Description|6|text=An overhead hammer swing with both fists. Covers a good amount of space, going from slightly above to well below Potemkin as the active frames complete. Desirable as a jump-in for its hitbox, its ability to cancel into {{clr|1|j.P}} for grab setups, and the fact that it staggers grounded opponents on counter hit, allowing combos directly into Potemkin Buster (or anything else you might want to try).

{{Description|6|text=Potemkin channels his former self, and scoops his opponent up over his head, then slams them down like a ragdoll in front of him. This replaces his old over-the-shoulder throw, and comes with a few advantages in comparison. First and foremost, it keeps them much closer, and Potemkin recovers in time to attempt oki. Secondly, he now throws the opponent in the same direction as the lever is pressed, meaning he can more easily throw the opponent into the corner while on defense. These benefits come at a cost, and that's virtually no combo options.

{{Description|7|text=Heat Knuckle is Potemkin's anti-air grab. He reaches his hand up at about a 45-degree angle, and if the opponent is caught, they're locked into his hand to be set on fire.

Heat Extend is a follow-up to Heat Knuckle, in which Potemkin channels energy into his gauntlet, then blows the opponent away with a large explosion.

{{Description|6|text=Potemkin rears back, then slams his massive body to the ground, creating a shockwave. This attack actually has two stages. The first is Potemkin's actual body, a standard attack that hits low and knocks the opponent down if they don't block it. Once he lands, the shockwave occurs: if the opponent is on the ground when it happens, they get knocked down. In both cases, the opponent is knocked down for considerably longer than usual, giving Potemkin plenty of time to close the distance, if applicable, and set up okizeme. Note, however, that if the first attack connects, even if it's blocked, the shockwave will not occur. | |||

In both instances, Potemkin is afforded plenty of time to follow up for big damage. Since it's a projectile, he isn't pushed back by the attack connecting, allowing him to make some interesting combos in the corner.

Potemkin |
---|
|
Overview
Potemkin is Guilty Gear's mainstay grappler. Potemkin uses short blockstrings combined with approaching moves like Hammerfall to overwhelm and confuse his opponent into making a mistake, then punish their reaction or lack thereof.
Lore: | He was a former slave in the empire of Zepp, and was a supporter of the democratic revolution that took place. He is currently a member of Zepp's elite presidential guard. Despite his appearance, Potemkin is actually a very intelligent calculating individual who dislikes fighting, only doing it when absolutely necessary. He is also generally kind to others, and is capable of keeping his patience even when the person he's speaking to isn't being necessarily friendly. |
Voice: | Takashi Kondou |
Potemkin Potemkin uses short blockstrings combined with approaching moves like Hammerfall to overwhelm and confuse his opponent into making a mistake, then punish their reaction or lack thereof.
- Long-range normals with relatively high single-hit damage.
- Extremely Fast command grab with great range.
- Damaging conversions off corner hits or Potemkin Buster.
- Above average stun output. Can easily stun Dizzy and Raven off of one counterhit 6H.
- Highly invincible backdash.
- The highest effective health in the game. Potemkin has a defense modifier of 0.93.
- The highest stun resistance in the game. Potemkin is practically impossible to stun.
- Hammerfall > YRC > Potemkin Buster.
- F.D.B and Slidehead allow Potemkin to deal with zoning.
- Very poor mobility. Makes approaching very difficult.
- Few options for dealing with opponent's pressure.
- Very long startup on most normals.
- Big hurtbox which extends further during most normals.
- Very situational overdrives.
- 5f jump startup.

Potemkin's close Slash is reasonably well-suited to its task, with acceptable startup and good active frames. Commonly used as combo filler, after a 5P/2P or jump-in. Leads into all of his combo-extending attacks like f.S, 2S, 6K, etc. Can also be jump-canceled into basic air combos ending in ICPM. Can also be used to setup tick grabs. |

A long horizontal chop, reaching over a good portion of the screen. Can be used to keep opponents honest at range, or to keep them blocking so you can approach with Hammerfall. Close hit guarantees hammerfall follow up. On CH you can follow up with hammerfall from any range, keep in mind that hammerfall has a tendency to whiff if you do it from absolute max range or around mid range of CH 5H hit. |

Your go-to anti-air. Potemkin sits down and claps his big metal hands in front of his face. It has impressive upper-body invulnerability and a sizable hitbox, which is good because this attack is really only any good when it counter hits, allowing you to follow-up with things like 5S/5H > Heat, j.P > j.K > j.S > ICPM or 6k loops in corner etc. Without a counter hit, the poor recovery and lack of cancel options means you cannot do any guaranteed follow ups. Upper body invuln frames 1~22. |

A lunging shoulder tackle. Potemkin clears a surprising amount of space in a short amount of time with this move, and it has enough blockstun to make canceling it into Hammerfall Brake positive on block. Speaking of which, get used to canceling this into Hammerfall Brake, because you'll be doing it a lot for pressure and combos alike.

Potemkin rears back, then throws his upper body forward with a massive double punch. His longest reaching normal, and also his most damaging. Good as a combo starter in the corner, but mostly you'll use it to cover screen space and assert dominance, forcing your opponent to block while you approach with Hammerfall or go for a Slide Head.

Potemkin throws out an angled backhand and shakes it like Bruce Lee. Now his only overhead normal since 6K's overhaul. Slow startup and obvious animation make it difficult to use in pressure, but the available followups on homing jumps and dashes alike make it worth trying occasionally. At least when they do block it, it's in your favor. Midscreen, go for a homing jump into j.H > j.H > jc > j.S > j.H > ICPM. Corner, go for a homing dash into a 2H > 2H > HFB > 6H > Trishula > 6K > Trishula > j.K > jc > j.H > ICPM, or 2H > 2H > HFB > 6H > HFB > 2S/6K loops depending on character (See below for more combo options and notation.

Potemkin kneels down and pokes forward with both arms at an angle. Short reach and low hitbox, but decent speed and cancel options. The new go-to poke against over 5P for grounded opponents, due to the height difference. |

Potemkin swings his arms back and extends his leg for a mid-range kick. Faster than 5K and better range, making it more desirable in neutral while 5K remains preferable for oki. Cancels into slash attacks, but unfortunately 2S won't combo, so you need to be relatively close to get good followups like c.S/f.S > 2S > etc. |

A crouching back-hand swing with great reach. Unfortunately it lost its vacuum effect from AC, but 6K's ability to close the distance makes up for this somewhat. Primarily grounded combo filler now, though smart use can net you big damage since it causes stagger on counter hit. |

Potemkin thrusts his fist way into the air with a beefy uppercut. Controls a massive amount of vertical space. Substantial untechable time on regular hit, but it really shines on counter-hit, preventing the opponent from teching at all until they hit the dirt, allowing for massive damage potential. |

Potemkin turns on his heel to deliver a long-range sweep. Low, with decent startup considering its reach. Though negative on block, its range means you're unlikely to be punished even up close, and gives it some viability as a tick grab setup. Can also be used on oki when you're too far away for 5K but still want to tag the opponent with a low. But in general you're better off only using this on grounded combos for the knockdown, and sticking with Hammerfall cancels for pressure. |

A quick elbow jab. Potemkin bunches up into a ball for this one, shrinking his hurtbox somewhat, but not enough to make a huge difference. Cancels into itself and all his other aerial attacks, and is a good choice for air-to-air combat. If the opponent blocks, keep pressing it until you both land and you can set up pressure or go straight for a grab. Additionally, since j.S gatlings back into j.P, you can use j.S as a jump-in, cancel into j.P if they block, then use the reduced blockstun to put them into a Buster (or bait their escape attempt!). |

A Mario-esque jumping kick. Also like Mario, Potemkin can bounce off his opponents with this, since it's his only aerial attack that can be jump canceled. Since it has hitboxes on both feet, it can be used for ambiguous crossups on oki or after double-jumps. |

An overhead hammer swing with both fists. Covers a good amount of space, going from slightly above to well below Potemkin as the active frames complete. Desirable as a jump-in for its hitbox, its ability to cancel into j.P for grab setups, and the fact that it staggers grounded opponents on counter hit, allowing combos directly into Potemkin Buster (or anything else you might want to try). Air counter hits provide pretty decent untechable time, allowing you to combo into Heat Knuckle after landing, depending on the height. |

Potemkin crosses his arms in front of him for a body splash. Massive horizontal hurtbox, hitting on both sides of his center line. The legs hit lower than the arms, making its usefulness as a jump-in dependent entirely on how ambiguous you can make it as a crossup. Can be canceled into ICPM, but only combos at certain heights. |

Potemkin thrusts his arms out, hovering in the air briefly, then drops to the ground butt-first. His extended arms drastically widen his hurtbox, but his butt isn't part of it, making it more likely to clash than be anti-aired cleanly. Knocks down on ground hit, slams down on air hit, ground bounce on counterhit that can be followed up if you hit it high up in the air or RRC it. Can be blocked while crouching. |

Potemkin channels his former self, and scoops his opponent up over his head, then slams them down like a ragdoll in front of him. This replaces his old over-the-shoulder throw, and comes with a few advantages in comparison. First and foremost, it keeps them much closer, and Potemkin recovers in time to attempt oki. Secondly, he now throws the opponent in the same direction as the lever is pressed, meaning he can more easily throw the opponent into the corner while on defense. These benefits come at a cost, and that's virtually no combo options. Can be followed in midscreen with RC 2H>HFB>sj j.P>j.K>j.S>ICPM, and in corner RRC>6K>HFB 4x>trishula>6k>trishula>j.K JC j.H>ICPM Has 65% forced prorate. |

Potemkin rears back, then slams his massive body to the ground, creating a shockwave. This attack actually has two stages. The first is Potemkin's actual body, a standard attack that hits low and knocks the opponent down if they don't block it. Once he lands, the shockwave occurs: if the opponent is on the ground when it happens, they get knocked down. In both cases, the opponent is knocked down for considerably longer than usual, giving Potemkin plenty of time to close the distance, if applicable, and set up okizeme. Note, however, that if the first attack connects, even if it's blocked, the shockwave will not occur. Slide Head has some upper body invincibility as it starts up, which might be enough to get you out of a counter-poke, but don't rely on it too heavily. There is also a window in which Potemkin can hit the ground and create the shockwave effects, but then YRC before the actual shockwave occurs. Great if you're trying to scare the opponent into jumping. You can also time Slide Head so that the shockwave hits just as the opponent is getting up. Only a reversal backdash, blitz, or another move with frame-one invuln/airborne state, will save an opponent from this. You can then RC, slowing down time and extending their knockdown animation, giving you time to combo them while they're still airborne and do some big damage. There are some exceptions to the rules for Slide Head's shockwave. Some characters have dashes that are considered airborne, which allow them to avoid the shockwave simply by dashing forward (I-no, Ramlethal, Dizzy, Johnny, etc). Generally these dashes have obvious effects, like teleportation, or make a distinctive sound when starting up to indicate their unique status. |

Potemkin's signature attack, and one of the scariest command grabs in all of fighting games. He pulls the opponent up, hoists them over his head, then leaps into the air and slams them down before throwing them aside. Deals high damage, has deceptively long reach and incredibly fast startup. If you do have the meter to spend, RC as he throws the opponent away, jump forward and hit j.H late, then follow up on the ground with something like c.S > f.S > Heat Knuckle, or a 6K loop if in the corner. Throw invulnerable frames 1-2, Full invulnerable 3-5. 50% forced prorate. |

Potemkin's new grounded special move, he hunkers down and trembles briefly before exploding in a pillar of fire. Has high vertical reach, but almost none horizontally. Launches the opponent on hit and also pulls them slightly inward, with time to air combo (usually with superjump j.P > j.K > j.S > ICPM), CH hit near corner grants 6H combo route. Mostly used as combo tool or catching really obvious air approaches. Potemkin is in counter hit state during the moves recovery frames. Absorbs projectiles while starting up, and has upper body invulnerability to boot. Invincible above the knees frames 1-39. 80% forced prorate. |

Potemkin's new aerial special move, he tightens up as if standing at attention and propels himself through the air in an arc, leaving a trail of smoke in his wake. The move is active until Potemkin hits the ground. If he hits the opponent, they're pinned to his Pickelhaube and are dragged to the ground with him. If he misses, he sticks in the ground himself and is stunned there briefly before recovering, very unsafe on block/whiff.
Potemkin gets significant advantage on wakeup against opponents hit by ICPM, which varies based on the opponent's wake-up timing.

Another anti-air grab. This time, Potemkin launches his entire body upward at about a 45-degree angle. If he catches the opponent, a cinematic plays in which he rotates up and presses the opponent to his shoulders, cuing a pan over the opponent's terrified/bemused/enraged face, before rotating back to normal and smashing them back to the ground. Does good damage, and is easy to connect after virtually any ground-to-air hit, making it a reliable ender. Can also be used to punish teching or jump-outs. Corner HPB>RRC>6H>xx leads to huge ammounts of damage. Fully invuln frames 1-12. Throw invincible for duration. |

Potemkin rips the air apart like Hulk Hogan's tanktop, creating a field of energy that slowly floats forward. This wave of energy absorbs other projectiles that hit it, and if it hits the opponent it staggers them (if grounded) or puts them in a slow float with long untechable time (if airborne). In both instances, Potemkin is afforded plenty of time to follow up for big damage. Since it's a projectile, he isn't pushed back by the attack connecting, allowing him to make some interesting combos in the corner. In addition, the energy wave has a very high stun modifier, making it easier to dizzy the opponent. Fully invuln frames 1-9. |

The follow-up to Giganter. Holographic alerts fill the air around Potemkin as he bends forward, extending his body mechanically before rapidly launching himself forward. Does massive damage and blows the opponent away on hit with substantial untechable time. Unlike Giganter itself, however, it has a 0x stun modifier, so its damage isn't counted at all when determining dizzy state for the opponent. This makes the choice to use Blid an interesting one: do you go for the upfront damage and potential follow-up damage, or go for the dizzy and reset into an even more damaging combo? The core factor for deciding which to use is your opponent's current healthbar - the more health they have, the more you'll want to favor going for dizzy. Positioning matters as well, since Blid only offers the opportunity to follow up if you're in or very near the corner. |
