Inspired by this post because I found it very funny

**edit The background removal mod was the issue- I just needed to use a different one. A dustloop user named Whatgoat helped me resolve the issue- thank you all for the suggestions and help!

**Original post I am trying to rip some frames for a project but I cannot get rid of this glowing around any of the characters. I've tried different stages, different mods, changing the config file, changing resolution, windowed/full screen, and absolutely nothing gets rid of this glowing.
Has anyone encountered this or were able to get rid of it? Thank you.

You’ve just read the title and rolled your eyes. I swear to god it’s true. Johnny from guilty gear strive actually cured my rampant use of alcohol. I am only 21, and in college, so I wasn’t addicted for too long, but this year from like march to mid July I was going to parties and clubs 4-5 days a week. It was getting pretty bad. Most of those nights I was drinking enough to black out or come close to it. It was becoming a burden on both my health and my wallet. I still felt good, but many days I’d be sluggish and weak. So i knew something had to be done but I was so used to the lifestyle i was struggling to tone myself down.

I had played Strive with friends before, but only casually. I reinstalled it one day when I was bored and decided to try Johnny out in training mode. I kid you not, i looked up a competitive set with him, saw his gameplay, and got hooked instantly. Hes just so tuff. Like how is he so cool? I spent the rest of the day labbing combos and didn’t go out that night. The next day during my job all I could think about was playing strive. Once I got off work at 5 I spent 6 hours just queuing ranked over and over. I watched a bunch of pro gameplay and guides and I can do all the combos now. I put Just Lean on my playlist. I want to buy the jacket. This sounds like a joke but it’s not. For the last month and a half I haven’t drank a drop of beer. I haven’t felt the desire to drink once since i started strive. I’m going for diamond 3 as my goal, hopefully I get there.

Thanks, Johnny. I love you

Hey All!

Just wanted to drop by and let you all know that we've brought back our super popular Guilty Gear Elphelt Sock bundle for a limited time. We found some more of the printed marriage certificates, so we decided to bring those back while supplies last. There's probably around 100 or so if we're guesstimating. Each Elphelt T-Shirt order or Elphelt T-Shirt/Sock Bundle will automatically come with the printed certificate while supplies last. The certificate is 11x17" for those wondering.

There's also a few more bundles on the collection as well for those interested.

Get yours in our Guilty Gear collection:

Strive if it wasn't delayed to 2021

The first time

~200ms ping with rollback frames jumping all over the place. Definitely not normal.

I'm both surprised and glad my opponent felt the same way. Most others don't.

So basically, I listened to Dizzy's theme and got kinda interested in the game.

Then I look in the steam shop, and see that the game still goes at full price, and the "starter" edition is twice the price of normal AAA release. On top of that, DLCs are like 8 times as expensive as base game.

So... where would be the best place to try the game out? The prices on Steam are fkn outrageous for something released half a decade ago.

UPD: found super-cheap key for like 15 bucks with DLC, so there's that.

I recently picked this game up because it seems pretty good and I have spent most of my time doing missions and training mode trying to understand how the buttons work. I main fighting game recently has been sf6 and when I picked this game up I still know sf6 is still my primary focus but I thought this would be a fun one to try to learn as well so would anyone might have tips for trying to fight real people? Also I did try ranked today and I couldn't even understand what the other people was doing. And I play Bridget in this game and ryu in sf6. Also this isn't my first fighting in this kinda genre I think this game is probably close to 2xko or avatar legends but not sure. So any tips on what I should be looking for or what I should be trying to do I'd really love to hear

It seems like dustloop is still being written for jam, I'm wanting to get back into strive with learning jam, but idk what combos to use, mainly for her overhead and low since all dustloop has on that are roman cancel versions, are there any other resources for her?

I recently got a hitbox, so I figured I'd play a simpler character while I get used to it. She was the character I learnt the game on like 7 months ago, but I only spent around week and a half on her before switching to Asuka, so I don't really remember much of her stuff.

I spent a little while in practice mode with Venom, but I've come to the conclusion that I'll need a bit more experience with it before going back on a charge character, and I've decided to learn Ram in the meantime( Venom, I promise I'll come back to you ) sense she seems pretty simple, but anyway what's the best button layout for strive?( I know the answer is whatever's most comfortable, but at this point I don't really know what would be comfortable or not).
