Some absolutely wild system level changes are in here, including the removal of weight classes. On paper, this patch makes me very happy, except for the part where they nerfed Goldlewis' f.S rather than buff his 2S.

Note that all of this is deduced from people who are more likely to notice nerfs than buffs. These may or may not be final, since this build is probably weeks old, and things found here may not be present in the patch we play a week from now.

I transcribed this from a screenshot and tried to keep all formatting and spelling exactly as the screenshot did, to minimize losses in translation.

I guess the mods from the GuiltyGear subreddit decided to make a lemmy community. Figured I'd share it here. It's currently not much bigger than this one but I imagine it'll grow if they're promoting it. https://kbin.social/m/[email protected]

I hope the atmosphere here will be just as good as it was on Reddit. That being said, sol badguy
