This video single-handedly elevated my Faust above my mediocrity. As I was struggling with one combo, I found something additional. If you hit anit-air only with 6H you can follow-up this way: 6H(aa) > 214K PRC > cS jc.9 j.S, j.H > 5K jc.8 j.S, j.H (wall splat) > 6H An alternative combo to the anti-air 5K, 6H is: 5K(aa), 6H > 214K PRC > cS jc.8 j.S, j.H > 5K, 6H > 41236K > 41236K ***if the 41236K at the end is problematic, and depending on the distance, you can do 6H or dash in for a fS***
I must be doing something very wrong then, cuz I lost like 30 games in a row against my friend's pot, and he's generally worse at FG's than me. Idk must be my old GG muscle memory getting in the way
These Faust videos are amazing I love them please keep them coming they're so good. Maybe a video discussing defensive options as it's hard to deal with unga bunga players on f6-f8 as a new gg player
2:02, 3:05(4), all of them are insane but these 5 are definitely gonna help me. I spent hours learning meaty c.S on Faust but I'm totally using that 2S frame trap technique now.
@@Krackatoa What does the tilde ("~") mean, just delayed S after P? Been trying the double 236 input and it often worked but hopefully it'll be more consistent trying it your way.
Found this video through your dustloop editing stream, realized I was doing 9/12 of these but NOTABLY not #1. #1 is so important to the guessing game on defense, holy
I use a string like #3 a lot, but I swap out the end 2P with the overhead heavy slash. The distance that gets put between you and your opponent after the three 5Ps is perfect for that overhead heavy slash, and I've managed to catch a bunch of people either crouching or thinking they can hit me back but can't reach me.
Really loved watching this. Most of these I've been using, but getting a j.H out of a j2K FastRC into a corner wall break was new to me as well as using 236P214K as a Hit/CH confirm to ensure a good outcome. Super useful to know!
Extremely concise video; easily one of the best educational fighting game guides in a sea of 60 minute unscripted clout-chasing verbose breakdowns that do nothing but fill time. Thanks boss!
Yep. Just going to be editing the dustloop wiki this weekend, since I'm travelling, maybe I'll upload a status report video of my work to keep everyone informed.
Im having trouble with number 6 ive tried a couple characters jumping in place but i never have enough time to get the heavy out to get the the combo out otg
I love the videos! On the OS combo, i cannot get the last 6H to land before the wall break MMM. any tricks with timing anywhere in the combo? cues to look for?
Yo I been a casual my whole life in gg and have never had friends to play with, I’m having a really hard time with the number pad notation and I love Faust. What do you recommend for a very beginner mindset faust lover
Hard to say in a comment. Make sure you lab vs. the go-to problem options. Learn to throw the crossup. Try to superjump out of pressure to escape. Learn how to punish his counter on whiff...
please tell me if im missing something. i cant get ch 2s-5h to combo into scalpel. only if the dummy blocks crouching. i guess if you see them block high, go for s-2d?
@@Krackatoa i could only do this on potemkin. I realized that I was delaying the 2s too much after c. slash. so i tightened it up, but i still cant get it on sol. Cant get it on Chipp, dude is literally leaning back, ill keep trying. I have dummy to guard first hit, with CH forced. I just have to say, this is one of the most amazing vids explaining how to play a character. fighting games are often about the information not seen, and most fgc heads dont speak clearly. You gave the string and clearly explained WHY this string, and WHAT ELSE it enforces/leads to. Your ability for basic clarity is a skill most dont have (even if i still didnt understand right away, its just fighting games have so many minute details) my understanding as a fighting gamer increased a lot, even if it'll take me a while to apply the lessons in-game
So i had the dummy on "only guard first hit" and had counter hit settings on "forced". When i tried putting dummy block settings on "all guard" and had a jab on counter-attack settings under "after block" i can get it consistently.
This is it
lythero moment
the goat
Wow I'm one minute in so far and this is EASILY the best Faust video I've come across! Thanks so much. Subbed!
Fuck yeah, bud.
Everything found past midnight derserved to be watched carefully
Krackatoa has been the one that prevented me from leaving Faust to another character, love ya man
Pretty sure Faust was modeled after this man. You're wacky and I love it!
You look like a Faust player and have my approval
This video single-handedly elevated my Faust above my mediocrity. As I was struggling with one combo, I found something additional.

People complain about Pot but the fact Faust smokes him fills me with so much joy

I cannot thank you enough for this so happy to see love for our mans faust
I love Lamp and Faust and your past midnight videos
you are carrying this character into relevancy
Was foolishly home-brewing faust strings for a while before I can upon this, a brilliant guide and exactly what I needed. Subbed and keep it up dude!
Thanks a bunch man ! I'm struggling with faust online but this will be a huge help.
Fantastic video! Thank you so much!
You can option-select j.2K into Bag (block + regular hit) or Mix (counter-hit) using j.2Kxx236P236S. Source: Rooflemonger
Yeah, it's just ridiculously hard to time correctly because hitstop on j2K is so low.
Also, the input is j2K>236P~S
@@Krackatoa What does the tilde ("~") mean, just delayed S after P? Been trying the double 236 input and it often worked but hopefully it'll be more consistent trying it your way.
@@soleil2947 Yup
@@Krackatoa Do you think 6P>236P~S is also viable as an anti-air OS? Or is there not enough time for the item toss if 6P gets blocked?
As a player new to GG, your channel has been nothing but a godsend to me. Thank you so much for you content! Keep it up.
Found this video through your dustloop editing stream, realized I was doing 9/12 of these but NOTABLY not #1. #1 is so important to the guessing game on defense, holy
Awesome video. Really helps a lot. been scrambling to find some good tech.
Bless you and your work, Bossman!!
I very much enjoyed this. It is 1 PM now. Very good. Left like.
Thanks, this is exactly what I've been looking for.

Love this character and love your helpful content
Decided to learn faust (from zato, abandoning top tier privilege) and your videos are really helpful, thanks!
Geez I really needed this. Great Stuff💯
Such great info and well explained! Thanks again, Bruce!
Extremely concise video; easily one of the best educational fighting game guides in a sea of 60 minute unscripted clout-chasing verbose breakdowns that do nothing but fill time. Thanks boss!
It took me a lot of playing GG to be able to make concise vids. Hopefully I can keep a hold on that vibe.
Dude I have been looking for a vid like this thanks bro
Super glad I found your channel - great Faust content!
The one guy who disliked the video is like that one guy who answered a Kahoot question wrong when everyone else got it right
Informative and entertaining. Just a great video. Good stuff.
Very good guides man they are much appreciated.
I did enjoy your top 12 faust strings!
Thank you so much for your content. You have made me such a better Faust
you rule man. nobody else is doing faust content like this 🤘
thanks dude! awesome work as always
I'm gonna watch cause you asked so nicely
I've been catching random faust vids in my recommended for tips, but apparently all I need to do is sub to your channel.
YES dude!
Good shit
I’m bookmarking this shit. Great vid.
Thank you squidward.
I enjoyed your top 12 faust strings
This is great shit man
I’m a tekken player trying guilty gear for the first time. Your videos are absolute gold.
Do you think you’ll narrate over your gameplay at some point? I find videos like that help a lot with learning in-game thinking.
@@garrethaskill951 That's the plan next replay I upload
Bruh what is the background track!!! I love it
Thanks 4 da tech HI from OCE/nZ
Great video Faust , goodnight
Thanks again for the hard work on your final night of vacation.
Technically this was done past midnight, so vacation is over.
The zefrank of combo videos. I love knowing what time it is.
I have no idea who that is but I'm a sleepy boy.

Love the snes turtles music!
Very helpful, thank you.
Can we talk about how his into is better than 95% of youtube
I am having trouble getting scalpel on fs counter hit at its edge but mix mix mix seems to work
Many thanks, learned about that one late.
Keep doing gods work!
Yeah aight this gets u a new one for the notis
This is amazing thank you so much
Very cool. Any thoughts on the scarecrows??? I miss doors they were better
Good with RC
3:09 just timestamping for myself 😁
For 3 months now a really good air to air had been jumping h, mmm, 5s, jumping h, mmm.
Thanks man this helps a lot
amazing content, thank you
Is there a trick to the followup H on the first string? No matter what I do, the 5H doesn't trigger the additional H even when I mash the button.
subbed, awesome stuff :) More faust content on the way?
Yep. Just going to be editing the dustloop wiki this weekend, since I'm travelling, maybe I'll upload a status report video of my work to keep everyone informed.
@@Krackatoa A matchup video against Ram would be super helpful, like you did for Chipp. She’s really hard to play against as Faust :(
Appreciate this vid
Im having trouble with number 6 ive tried a couple characters jumping in place but i never have enough time to get the heavy out to get the the combo out otg
This vid is very well done
You are very well done, sarv.
I love the videos! On the OS combo, i cannot get the last 6H to land before the wall break MMM. any tricks with timing anywhere in the combo? cues to look for?
Got to keep them high and delay jH so you recover low. 5K MMM works more easily I think
@@Krackatoa ahhh ok thank you! I think I was hitting jH asap. Is the dash between 214k and 5k always necessary?
Thanks for the content bro, I am literally breaking myself getting into Heaven with Faust but I will not fold and become a gorilla. Motivating stuff
actually useful
good shit
Yo I been a casual my whole life in gg and have never had friends to play with, I’m having a really hard time with the number pad notation and I love Faust. What do you recommend for a very beginner mindset faust lover
What do you think about the Faust vs Leo match up and do you have any tips against him? he is my demon online
Hard to say in a comment. Make sure you lab vs. the go-to problem options. Learn to throw the crossup. Try to superjump out of pressure to escape. Learn how to punish his counter on whiff...
FAUST GOLD MINE ! 👌
Damn. Subbed
Maan we really need some tips going up against may lmao. This oppressive
nice vid
please tell me if im missing something. i cant get ch 2s-5h to combo into scalpel. only if the dummy blocks crouching. i guess if you see them block high, go for s-2d?
2D is unsafe. The 2S 5H scalpel needs to be done quickly and is CH only.
@@Krackatoa i could only do this on potemkin. I realized that I was delaying the 2s too much after c. slash. so i tightened it up, but i still cant get it on sol. Cant get it on Chipp, dude is literally leaning back, ill keep trying. I have dummy to guard first hit, with CH forced.

I’m really struggling with reacting to the counter hit meaty, any suggestions to get my reactions more accurate?
Great guide i hate fighting sol
Now that 2S launches upwards, is there a difference in using f.S instead of 2S pre-patch?
You definitely look like a Faust player

Why does all your videos sound like ASMR ?
I mean i'm not complaining, if I can get good and feel relaxed that's a win-win (unlike this damn trumpet)
why do 5p-5p-5p-2p and not 5p-5p-6p item toss? (also thx for the video awesome work!)
I'm tired of having my 6P whiff.
People forget that Faust isn't thaaat bad in strive because this game is really balanced relatively, he's def my favorite character to watch.
Anyone knows what's the music in this vid is ?
Sewer Surfin' - TMNT IV: Turtles in Time for the SNES
How do you deal with giovanna as faust.
Learn what you can crawl (On prediction and on reaction). Learn what you can do after her 214K.
ty for sharing, youre beautiful and i will confirm all of my counterhit pokes into scalpel to make you proud
What the fuck this is amazing
Yeah buddy that was sexy
I may be a Pot main who got absolutely bodied by a Faust so this info is being scripted into my bible
Hey what is “jc.8” ?
Jump cancel up
@@Krackatoa thanks!
You think 5P, 5P, 5P, 2P is better than 5P, 5P, 6P? 6P sends them flying.
I'm tired of not having enough time to confirm and whiff a 6P, tbh fam.
