THE RANGE AND DAMAGE BECOME QUITE POOR WHEN YOU HAVE NONE LEFT
Same energy as DEALING AOE PYRO DAMAGE
But your attacks put the opponent into *shock state*
And a lot of moves require you to throw them or not to in order to use them zzz
SHOCK STATE.

@@isoito5927 yea,when I made that statement,I meant how ki blast were mostly just tools to make your opponent make a mistake or allow u to vanish etc,and beams were more about locking you down. I could be wrong tho
people: *complain how underwhelming Ram is*
Me: "Holy christ she is easily top 2 in the open beta!"
I mean, open beta means any ol' scrub got in to play. Not exactly a tournament setting.
I like how everyone cried because they got rid of some moves and now she’s the most popular character in the beta
She's like totally different character. One thing that'll miss is the sword set ups, that was what made her gameplay so different than others.
The new proyectile special sword corner explosions will not miss the sword setups, I rather damage scaling breakers like these than the jogo bonito setup

has only two shots and is unprotected for a period of time
Ky: balance

How do you get spammed in an anime game with air dashes and mobility up to 11?
@@zeroranger that wasn't the point
@@zeroranger have u fought a good ky or venom or if you really bold elphelt
I feel they should give her move to save her set up some like millia new spin top
maybe a move where she sends sword backwards to come from behind cause as of now I can already see there's matchups wheree it's an automictic lost
like can she even play vrs a good sol cause to me one throw supper on her projectile start up is auto lost every time
Her dmg better be high as hell
You people gotta stop using that word "spam". That's a scrub term for people who can't deal with zoning playstyles.
I agree with her shooter style being a bad label for her.
The point is not the concept of "spam", the problem is that the use of the swords as projectile is absurd when compared to the projectiles of other characters. It is very limited and leaves you at a great disadvantage; you have a lot to lose and little to gain.
So far she seems to have changed the most out of all the returning characters.
May.
yeah may got gutted the worst by a mile
That's a good thing tbh. Her older playstyle was clunky and garbo
I almost got a Bridget vibe from her in Xrd because of the midair setup stuff...
Your profile picture is some good shit there dude.
So, she can't even recall the swords anymore? It almost looks like they didn't know if they wanted her to be a corner pressure chara or a zoner projectile chara, so both toolsets feel incomplete imo.
EIDT:With corner vortex being gone/extremely disincentivized, i'd say Ram's update is looking good the more i see it. Personally i still hope they give her sword recall back or more tools only accessible when the swords are deployed tho lmao.
They don't want characters to have setplay anymore.
It's stupid. Everybody looks broken except her
She was never zoner material anyway. Her swords are too slow and telegraphed for that.
So here is the thing. If Axl lost a great mechanic in his parry, then get's a timestop move, while Sol loses his Dragon Install for a pretty fast mid screen super, if Ramlethal loses her own ability to instantly recover swords, and the others got something in return, what is Ram gonna get in return?
@@Yunglex313 actual damage to back up the coner carry instead of her tediously long kick kick.... kick kick... juggle combos
Dang, Ramlethal was one of my favorites in Xrd. I’m willing to try her out, but I’m skeptical on these changes to her.
She's completely different play style now, she's like a full moon melty blood character, all neutral and no specials. No oki, no mix ups. Her main style as it appears now is chipping away through specials and catching anything that isn't in her comfy disjoint hitbox area.
Yeah a "shooter" character that needs to retrieve her only 2 projectiles or be without them for several seconds. Meanwhile Ky ...
Shooter that gets punished for actually shooting outside of corner
And Venom
Absolutely no options from a placed sword lmao
Yeah that's the point
Even as someone who hasnt played or seen Ramlethal, her placed sword seems like her weakest stuff.
@@kei7540 kinda gay.
@@LoftOfTheUniverse K
@@JayceCH. yeah i feel like all these folk whining about the lack of set play with her swords never actually played her, cause that shit was easily the clunkiest, least satisfying part of her design.
Damn they sure changed her a bit compared to her xrd version
All for the better
Yeah, but personally I am hyped. I really like this characters design, but when I tried to play her in Xrd she wasn't my thing. I've realized that I really only play mid ranged characters with strong pokes and zoners. Now that she is a mid ranged character she'll definitely suit my play style better.
Good
@@KaminariHouse ehhh for the better is debatable. I'm worried about her mid screen game in the corner she sounds pretty good and her long range super is gonna be clutch. But because in xrd you could make the swords appear mid screen she could go for shmix there too. I just hope bajoneto is plus on block at least.
@@206lbs.hercules5 yeah but i guess we have to wait and see hopefully she turns out great
I like how with these newer guides the majority of the video is spent beating up the next character that’s going to get a guide
nice notice
Looks like Ramlethal got the Juri treatment. Cool characters with such wild changes on their next outing that they turn into dumpster fires.
Looks pretty cool to me
They both have nice feet ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)
@@LordlyWeeb change BAD
I understand your comment, but I quite like SF5 Juri as well as SF4 Juri. They may as well be different characters but they're both cool.
I’ve been really hyped after most of these guides but this one was kinda rough. It feels like they made ramlethal way less unique and just took away a lot of her interesting tools
Edit: I ramble quite a bit in my replies, but just to be clear I’m still super excited for Strive. The ramlethal changes just feel really weird to me.
Exactly how I feel man.
I’m wondering if we really just had all her target combos replaced with Erarlumo :/
@@wholesomeslacker For that you can go see Ramlethal vs Millia. You can see that she has more variations
@@BxnnyBride ok that’s good. Thanks for letting me know. Still gonna miss my anti-air projectile though lol
@childofsea yeah for real. I get that they want a simpler game, and ramlethal was definitely weird to learn. But yeah her swords and move properties took huge hits.
I feel like the closest comparison I can make is a League of Legends rework.
No matter what you do with the character, when you rework them, you are basically "deleting" a character that at least *some people* enjoy very much. That is precisely why Riot tries to preserve a good portion of what the champion was before.
Ramlethal seems to have suffered this fate. She barely resembles what she once was, and the most egregious part is that they stripped a very unique part (arguably the most important parts for character identity) of her kit: controlling the deployed swords. Hell, I struggle to even call this mediocre projectile "deploying" them; it's more like a cooldown that neuters the rest of your kit than anything else. Rather than create a new character with such elements, Ram has been stripped and repurposed into _this._
Truly unfortunate and, most worryingly, it looks *boring.*
The Aatrox of Strive.
Ram didn't get deleted cuz this is an entirely different game
@@Cunt143 The Ram from Xrd is gone, at least in part; "deleted" is simply a convenient term to say that the playstyle/character design is not the same anymore.
Sure, it's a new game. A new game in the same series with the same characters. It is reasonable to assume that the characters as they are carried into this new game will have their playstyles kept mostly intact as that is a large part of what makes that character who they are. Of all the characters displayed for Strive, you can clearly see this is not entirely the case with Ram, because she was at least partially reliant on a mechanic that was utilized mainly for powerful setplay. Setplay of this type, of course, being something that ArcSys wants to purge mostly from existence in this entry.
@@baltharaaz9847 Millia also saw big changes to her playstyle, and May and Chipp lost a lot of their core tools which gave them their identity. This game obviously is meant to play very differently from rev 2 so ram's tools just don't make sense in it. I agree she seems quite barebones, but she's not the only character to get this treatment, and rev 2 is still a game that exists and you can play, it's not like they're patching her there.
I kinda expected more sword-discarding moves.
Let's see how she plays in the beta, but I get the wheelchair ready.
God I hope they will add some sword discarding moves that will actually shoot and provide some space control. Considering they made axl a JoJo character with ZA WARUDO way after they released his starter guide there is quite the possibility ram will get a move or two on top of what we have. Open beta is defo going to be wheelchair
Lol her crazy setplay, her strings, her wall carry, her command throw, and best super move are all taken away. What were they thinking? This is just Ramlethal at 1%
As long as she is actually fun to play this time I'm fine with it
@@bloxztr2601 that's the thing where is the fun ? she just looks boring especially if you knew how interesting she was in her original game design
@@chebil_y4967 her most fun version was her original iteration. Then they nerfed her to hell. And now they've made her super basic. I hope there's more to her but she has less moves and the moves she does have are limited.
@Lilgav how? Her neutral is the same she already had sword normals. And bajoneto looks likenits not gonna be something to just throw out
I’m disturbed that he’s mispronouncing my main girl’s name 🤬
Yeah, after the second time, I was just hoping he'd assume we know who he'stalking about and stop saying her name at all.
But he keeps going, and going, and going...
i scrolled just for this comment. It felt like I was getting stabbed repeatedly
I tried to block it all out and enter a zen state before I screamed
seriously it was driving me insane
@@meister4597I just watched the video with no volume and with closed captions lol
Everybody is making fun of how he pronounces her name until that’s how it actually gets pronounced in the dub lol.

@@thecaptainplus Her neutral was bad enough that if she got you in the corner she derserved to mix you up
@@haironyourscreen1182 As a Sol main I disagree. Nothing hurt more than having to take 100 risks only to guess wrong once and have to hold that corner carry netplay delay pressure with the 50/50s to boot.
@@bigboss6145 says the sol main.
@@p-y8210 People like to say that Sol is unga when really Sols easy to pickup but hes dependant on proper neutral at mid - high levels and is hard to master due to the constant risks he has to take. Im saying that while putting aside any bias i may have as a sol main btw.
I was never a Ramlethal player but she seems very neutered compared to what she was in Xrd
Yea she seems like she was changed in a really poorly thought out way.
Which is a damn shame because she wasn't all that great already in Xrd
being neutered was ram's whole design from revelator onward. this is just a shiny new wheelchair

@@ThGtKpr What character?
Give her a try. See if there is still so.ething there for you. If not, sorry man.
Then you never were
She seems fair, which isn't good in a game full of bullshiat. Axl can stop time, Chipp can do Chipp shenanigans, Sol's command throw deals ton of damage, three dolphin from May is like 50% in corner, Millia's oki are what they are, Zato's pressure is what it is. I'm afraid my girl is low tier, I hope I'm wrong :'( ...
Until update patches nerf them or buff her up.
Until they reveal she has a install in the final game
She's got half-screen normals and can do like 40% with one stray hit from Sabrobato. I think she'll be ok.
Chipp is getting the shorter end of the stick too.
The only thing he got in Strive is wall combo?
She's been low tier for years. They had a chance to buff her now, and chose to make her with weak projectiles that make her neutrals trash.
Coming back to the comments on this video is funny cause everyone thought that she would be absolutely useless in Strive. Now that the game's out she has one of the best and well designed kits for Strive's systems. BRING ON THE RAM SUPREMACY!
Bruh nooo they simplified tf out of her & made sending out swords into a situational projectile with a cool down that handicaps your moveset with them out.
it's like they wanted to get rid of her sword gimmicks but couldn't commit
Please fix the Brazilian price for Guilty Gear Strive on Steam
rip brazilian console players
Cant you use a vpn? Some people use that to buy games at a lower price, not that is ethical to do, but is better than pirating if you want to play online.
@@monkakonga4305 Using VPN on Steam to buy ganes will get your account banned. Better to use key resellers.
We have to wait 1 or 2 days, I heard it takes time to adjust prices on steam, Valve has to receive and review the price adjustment. It can't be done manually by ArcSys.
But if they don't change it after this weekend, honestly, it's going to be really weird.
Lot's of places are using the regional price-table steam suggests, that are based on the region/country buy power, but Brazilian price is even higher than converting 60$USD to our own currency.
@@monkakonga4305 Honestly, I wouldn't do it. Not just because it's unethical.
But because, if this price isn't a mistake, if it's the intended price, it'll be clear that they don't want anything to do with the Brazilian FGC.
And so the Brazilian FGC shouldn't care about them either.

Yo nice pfp lol
yeah i thought it was 'ram-la-thawl' , she grew up and change the pronunciation of her name i guess
You know how the english word lethal is spelled right? I guess you don't.
@@MforMovesets Yet her name was never said with that english pronounciation.
@@MforMovesets dude they literally say it like ram-le-thawl in xrd
This feels like they made Ram for the people who say they liked her but didn't wanna spend the effort to learn how to use her. One would think you'd aim the char at those who both liked her and who'd put in the effort to learn her lol.
I know what you mean and I agree, but she was a super polarising character in xrd. Speaking for myself I thought the sword playstyle was just gimicky and uninteresting, I'm happy she fights more up close and personal in this game. That said they fucked up a bit, she doesn't really have anything interesting compared to the other chars they showed off, she's probably just very good at abusing wallbreaks? But whatever it is they did an incredibly poor job showing it off.
@@leoryzap It's not really gimmicky, she just used delayed projectiles, a bunch of chars do that, hers just affect her normals. She had incredible corner setplay with that. If anything was gimmicky it was her normals being chainable which made a lot of players use her wrongly and not apply the actually good sword stuff in favor of just mashing KKK over and over in the corner lol.
And wallbreaks are not something you "abuse", they're something you avoid cause they send you back to neutral, and what you want is to get good corner oki. Which is the issue with her lacking good corner oki.
Look how they massacred my girl.
It hurts
they literally mangled her..
@@p3bblez Literally? I didn't see blood.
All they did was change the animation. In the corner her swords will likely function the same way they did in Xrd, albeit slightly less oppressive. You shoot the swords, mix them up while they explode, land the knockdown+pick up the swords, then repeat. Old Ram didn't really deploy her swords in neutral much because sword normals were so good, and because when she blocks they go dormant mid animation if they are deployed.
Isn't that a meme?
RIP Ramlethal (2014-2021)
Reading a lot of the comments here, I am happy that this is the first GG I am interested in. No expectations on how a character used to / should be.
I think she looks great. Good range to speed to damage ratio.
I'm here 4 months into the future looking at all these poor souls that underestimated Ram.
"She's aimlessly designed, she's a shooter that gets punished for shooting, she needs to get the recall swords back or else she won't be good"

As a ram main in Xrd, playing her in the strive beta felt amazing! Unfortunate that the setplay is gone, but her game plan is the exact same!
I'm a tad salty they changed my girl up so much but i guess i'll see how she feels before i say they ruined her.
This will be my first guilty gear game , I can’t wait to try it out

Aww, I wish she still had her crazy sword setplay. She still looks really cool, and her combos seem quite feral in an interesting way.
Ya'll are seriously carrying my hype with these videos everyday. Lets goooo
You took away like... all of her interesting moves.
Is it just me or it seems like Ram's move list is incomplete? All of the characters (with the exception of May) at least got 1 move or more than Ram atm, just seems weird to me.
Sooooo completely different character? I guess corner monster wouldn’t really work with the wall breaks
I think she's still good in the corner but that's ALL she has now, I think her game plan is gonna be to never throw the sword at all before you get to the corner
@@henriquerodrigues7795 If you watched her axl match youd know her playstyle revolves arround easy corner carry and push now while creating space . another issue is the devs saying jumping and iad is so risky considering they can just jump over her sword if she would do it raw so she is legitimite worse in spacing as nago even so she is supposed to operate at midrange .
@@mfgrobin9657 Can you not jump right after to put pressure? I am genuinely asking. If you are in an offensive position to be able to freely shoot her sword, would you not be in a good position to take the fight to them if they try to escape?
Feels like all her specials are just different versions of "Big heavy attack" or combo fodder. No dedicated mixup or Oki tools.

Laughed my ass off at this.
Maybe I'm just fucking stupid, but I really cannot tell how this kit meshes together at all.
Seems like a bunch of random moves.
If you're going to make her mid-screen focused, the moves *should* illustrate that.

It's impressive how you gave such an interesting character such a boring moveset.
A equally cool, cute and badass character design
No command grab, no strings, no fireball, weird input normal, weird af
Interesting how they turned her target combos into the delayed rekka. I thought the anti air fireball was kind of weird inclusion in her original kit so I'm totally fine with them trimming that. The one thing that's Ramlethal defining that they changed though was able to do sword commands, removing that makes her feel a lot more "normal," compared to how she used to be played.
@@uero-ro the only thing I'm actually bummed about is the target combos. I don't wanna play like a normal character
@@knightspartan7201 Yeah, they were cool. The new rekka has cool animations though, so far her new kit seemed pretty simple so I wonder how much variety or nuance there is to it.

Setplay is hard and you have to learn it, people bounce off hard things. Easier game = more players... money goes brrrrrr
That projectile seems really + on the corner which is good at least.
@@Elivanse it isnt if you watch her match with axl he just jumps out before it explodes
@@greasysmith3150 Shit... you're right. The porjectile isn't very plus, but maybe the explosion is?
So for example, throwing a sword on hard knockdown to limit the opponent's uptech, then go for possible 50/50s? It would "technically" be the same as Xrd, but "different" enough to not be overwhelming for new players?
If ArcSys' goal was to rid of their 50/50s entirely, then Ram's going to be struggling...
I know I'm not alone when I say that I'm not exactly happy with these huge reworks for Ram. Her setplay was what made her unique in Xrd...and she can't even recall the swords?
We have entered the simplification of fighting games era guys.
We've been in this era for a while lmao.
"They ruined the character."
*Hits like button*
Here's hoping they ruin Elphelt too.
@@Adam-qy6wt God forbid, Elphelt's cool.
They really took my girls command grab and her sword spin. Why? Why'd you have to do it Arcsys? Was taking away setplay not enough? You could at least let her keep the grab and the spin?
beeg laser coola tham spin spin
A lot of characters seem to have lost a lot of their setplay. I think only Millia still retains something kinda like the crazy wake-up mixups of Xrd.
Yea Millia keeps her setplay, but she also loses her range (pin)
Excuse me sir, you forgot to tell us about her command throw and deployed sword attacks.
*Please tell me this isn't her entire movelist*
Since sol and Ky receive more moves, wish that ram too
Throwing away the swords looks quite underwhelming damage-wise unless you're in the corner, but if you are they come back immediately, so there ends up being no gimmick, just a character with big normals and a rekka
I feel like her game plan is gonna be to not use the sword throw at all before you're in the corner, so you can get pressure/dmg. Which is a shame imo, like a huge part of what the character was is gonna be ignored until you get to a corner
But that is a very interesting concept for a character. One that works very diferently depending on where you are at the screen. I like this kind of spice. Not everybody has to be at their best, or play the same, throughout the whole screen. Not everyone has to be Ky.
My thought is that sword cast RC will be a sure-fire way of getting in with little counterplay in neutral so we will have to wait and see.
Yeah, not really seeing the reward from throwing your swords, that would make it worth the handicaps it gives.
@@marcusmeira5594 Honestly I fail to see how making it so she could maybe have one other not as good option on sword throw that works mid-screen or even a way for the swords not to go all the way to the corner make her less interesting. Maybe on mid screen they could bounce and make it so ram has to choose between giving up her position to grab the sword back, that's more interesting to me than both of them going all the way to the corner and now you gotta wait for them to come back, or even worse completely ignore 2 special moves until you get to a specific screen position.
Millia and zato were so hype, why is this character so boring looking now? She was never my thing but just watching xrd tournaments she looked a lot more diverse before.
Yeah, she is completely bland now.
They took away alot of her setplay tools which just makes the character nothing but another poke character,sucks
Because they don't care
@@LoftOfTheUniverse that's bit of an overstatement since they have been listening to us. They changed the UI,made the burst and character icon not move with the health bar etc.
@@BlondedOcean.mp3 I only care about Ramlethal. They nerfed her once into oblivion and did nothing to fix her, hell even look at the end of the video. It's her blocking. Compare that to anybody else's. No hype.
So she has like half her stuff from Xrd?
She has a couple normals and a super
Well ... Ramlethal looks ... meh ? The character visuals are astonishing , as always , and thank you for your hard work. But Ram looks like a shoto character now gameplay wise ( good neutral , good damage ...) It feels bland since it doesn't have her set ups . I find even weirder the fact that she has knockdown from some moves , but no set up moves . This makes me think the character maybe is incomplete . I'm dissapointed that we didn't see any cool situations in this guide either . Millia and Zato character Guides looked sick , and had various cool interactions. Ram's look , again , really bland . I hope my opinion changes during the beta , or that Ram'll gain new tools for the full game ( or an update).
It's not common in fighting games to add or change a character after release sadly
@@chebil_y4967 more than change , Ram needs more unique things to do. She just hurls swords and gets big damage ... any character in Strive can have big damage . Maybe adding a set up tool , or a laser beam for her swords ( she is a SHOOTING TYPE after all ) could be interesting . Besides , as I said before , she has moves that knock the oponent down , but no set up tools . It's weird.
They did my girl dirty :(
Ram got gutted, wow thats painful
Looks cool can't wait to join the gg games
who is this and where is the real ram
I was literally looking for this video to see if it was up yet this morning, now its night and its uploaded! lets gooooo
Don't let the range and damage become quite poor when you have none left distract you from the fact that the longer the Icon of Sin is on Earth, the stronger it will become
I'm not usually "that guy" but the second rekka on Erarlumo got me actin' up.
As someone that liked her design in Xrd but didn't enjoy her gameplay, I'm liking these changes, but I def understand why previous Ram players aren't thrilled.
Exactly how i feel. I cant wait to try her, but feel bad for those who were corner pressure monsters
Just what I was waiting for Bay Ramlethal
As a Ramlethal main, this video triggers me. I love seeing my girl get some screen time but I'm just a little worried that now that she doesn't have her corner combos that she'll suck :/
I won't know until I try her and that beta can't get here fast enough
As a dedicated player of rushdown/setplay characters due to outright hating neutral game and as an Xrd Ramlethal main, I can only say that I am looking at an abomination right now.
Ikr, those peasants don't deserve to play the game. They'd better spend their time getting mixed up by my superior swordplay and lying on the ground before me. I cry when I see neutral.
@@Adam-qy6wt Mind you, Anji gets to keep his brain-dead setplay of Shitsu into knockdown and Zato still gets to bully people in the corner with Eddie. Why does only Ramlethal lose her setplay?
Agreed. They advertise her as "Shooter" character that excels in mid-range. but she is heavily punished for shooting anywhere outside corner lol. And her mid-range isnt even better than a lot of the cast such as ky or nago. I really struggle to see what this character is trying to accomplish design wise. Shes "shooter" but shes not, and shes "mid-range" when there are better options for it. I hope they increase her kit and allow you to deploy the swords in some way, making the swords shoot maybe which would give her some set-play/space control
I get that they want to tone down creative corner pressure, and that was Rams whole game plan. But the fact that she easily seems to have some of the worst in the game now is truly tragic. If you want SOME sort of pressure and setplay Zato is you best bet now I guess. Really sad about this one. Went from one of the most complex In the game to big buttons the character and that's it :/
This aged like milk
Man now I’m considering her as one of my mains now
Edit: She is now my main.
Personally I probably would have never played Ram in her old form but I'd be much more inclined to pick up this version, so I like the changes. I completely understand why old Ram mains might be a bit miffed though.
It's not really the okizeme change but her tools aren't flexible and there's a bunch of risk and not nearly enough reward.
@@containeduniverselow4790 I thought people were complaining about the lack of set-play. I've never played xrd but my understanding is new ram has better neutral with no set-play whereas old ram had worse neutral with set-play potential.
@@riftis2210
She has nothing to make the foe play differently.
@@riftis2210 her neutral us the same, worse maybe as she lacks her old fireball. She already had big sword normals
When Does She Unleash The BORGAR OM NOM
they changed almost everything about her.. my poor girl got mangled
Wrong
@@MrMonsterKen they did. they removed all her corner pressure, her sword spin, and her sword set ups. shes pretty much had the biggest change yet :/
@@p3bblez What do you want her to be? a grappler? Ram has never meant to be a grappler, she clearly needs to stay rushdown, but the new techniques that stay true to ram flesh her out a lot more. I rely on character type, not on tools.
This made me go back and watch the strive match vs Axl, yeah I'm pretty sad right now
2:30 HEY DID YOU KNOW THAT THIS HITS 30 TIMES
The shoot style gameplay seems to be at odds with Ram. She was always super vulnerable without her swords, and now she's especially vulnerable since she can't do setups with them. I'm still hyped to try her, she just doesn't seem like she was fully adapted for her new playstyle. We'll have to see.
They took away her strings? Damn, i loved the animations for those. And she hasn't any set play anymore. Can't tell right now but I think she got punted into lowest tier, and she wasn't super good before either
They took them out because they are afraid of fans calling ASW's out for a "Noob-Friendly" character, which is silly. All the snowflaky FGC morons want everything to be balls-to-the-wall "Technical" and hard, it's sad how such an elitist mindset became such a standard, it's disgusting!
No more twin blade propeller super move. That was more satisfying for me than the laser blast. 😭😭😭. Damn I really have to hugely adjust myself in playing her.
Are these all her moves? We’re seeing more characters have some crazy stuff and I scared other characters won’t have as much in comparison
It's only the beta
@@kei7540 fair enough
@@kei7540 The game is releasing in 8 weeks, don't expect anything massive like we are here a year after the previous beta
@@CherryPixelBun That's enough
Ram-Not so-Lethal now -.-
Golden comment
Ramlethal might need that "Jiren 3.5" buff, but she looks pretty fun.
