I only started Xrd when the Rollback beta came out and I went with Bedman as my character. I feel like I won a lot more games than I deserved because people just don’t know what he does lmao
_THAT'S MY BOY! THERE HE IS! HELL YEAH!_ Seriously though, thank you for making a video on Bedman. I've loved this character since day 1 of me playing Rev 2. Anyways, have some advice for the MU from the perspective of a Bedman main. Enjoy! - If you block Bedman's Reversal Super, then you can't punish it. It's +11 on block. However, it's not throw invuln! (Unless they use the burst version, but that's a lot of resources to dump.) If you catch them doing reversal super too much, then call them out. Potemkin gets a bonus mention for being able to use Pot Buster against it, even being able to use it on reaction and not as a read due to the super having 8 startup frames post superflash. Jack-O gets a mention too, cause the hits of the super are considered projectiles, allowing her to shut it down with Aegis Field. - Bedman's 6P is not very reliable. It's prone to trading when used on reaction, and can even lose in some circumstances. It's generally good when used as a read, but other than that, can be unreliable. Don't get too cozy up there, because Bedman still has good air-to-airs, other more reliable but more specialized anti-airs, and is tied for the highest air throw range in the game. (The other character being May.) - Bedman's Dead Angle is the worst in the game. It's quite stubby, is the most unsafe at -21, and it has a bad vertical hitbox. If you can bait this, you get a punish. - Task A' seems incredibly oppressive considering it teleports Bedman to you at massive frame advantage, but a lot of the threat can be removed with blitz. While yes, the Bedman player can get around your options post-blitz, it's not in his favor. - Start blitzing Task C. Seriously. Knowing this is extremely important. This move is very easy to blitz, and if you don't know that you can, then the Bedman player gets a very good get-out-of-jail free card against your attempts keep him out of the air. Do note that the Bedman player can YRC the air version before it becomes active, allowing them to potentially call out your blitz attempt. - Instant blocking Bedman in the corner will give you some much needed breathing room. S Deja-Vu is one of his best ways to keep you locked down, and instant blocking can help out by giving you more gaps in his pressure. - Bedman's 2S is one of his most reliable pokes, but it also low profiles! Be careful when IAD'ing against him! - _STOP LETTING ME GET AWAY WITH HEMI JACK._ Seriously, stop. It leaves Bedman WIDE open, doesn't hit grounded opponents, can be hit 3 times to make it disappear, disappears instantly if Bedman gets hit, has very little reward on hit compared to his other metered options, puts the opponent too far to land an IK in case it hits by some miracle, and doesn't even stun 100% of the time when comboed in to if you can actually land one against another non-lobotomised human being. Bacchus Sigh is better than Hemi Jack and that shit is METERLESS. Oh well, at least it looks cool. Hope you enjoyed reading this. Now go out there and make the lives of Bedman players even harder! ...At least until we get rollback again. Edit: Another piece of matchup knowledge is that Bedman's theme is written in C Minor. That won't help you much while fighting him, but it's neat to know I guess.
Even if you knew what Bedman does, him being low tier (and debatably the worst character in the game) doesn't mean he can't do anything. The whole reason he's low tier is because he's very high risk and low reward. You have to spend a lot of time building up your Deja Vu seals for your set ups, which can easily be destroyed to push you back, all to get out a combo to deal a decent enough damage just to be in the lead while high tier characters can drain your health bar right at the beginning of the round. What the pay off is though is once you have everything set up how you want it, Bedman is an absolute MONSTER that you have a hard time contesting to because it's very hard to take control away from him once he has it. You really have to be patient and clever to do well with Bedman, but trust me, he's so worth it.
@@LucidButtonMasher Honestly you could be correct, but one thing Ive learned is that there is no definitive "worst" or "best" character unless they're actually useless like Potemkin's first appearance in the series, but games have come far enough to where you don't see so much of that anymore. I haven't fought many Zatos but I'm sure there are people who can use him and be deadly with him like with Bedman. It all really depends on how much time and energy you want to spend on a character.
Tbh I think Bedman will probably be a better character now that we're getting Rollback, like how A.B.A went up the tier lists after the ACR rollback dropped
I'm pretty new to Bedman and I never would've ever thought of doing some of the things seen in this video. Seriously, that off-screen k-ball recall was DIRTY. I wouldn't have ever expected that coming if I fought another Bedman.
When you are a bedman main, like me, you know for a fact that while your character sucks, you have the immense power of "not knowing the matchup" so this is mildly accurate
I was waiting for so long for you to get around to covering my dear Bedboi. It usually takes people a while to remember he exists anyway so I guess it's understandable.
DVJA' is so funny to me. He replays something while he's a million miles in the air and then he's right next to you and beating you up for thinking you were safe.
I’m pretty sure Delilahs been confirmed to be the next strive character, so I really wanna know just how similar to Bedman she’ll be and after playing XRD, I’m terrified for the idea of that character returning in any way
@@LucidButtonMasher It’s removed, but it makes sense. Bedman is dead after all. The Bedframe would likely not have access to the Dreamlike Reality powers Bedman had.
@K. W. Pillsbury yeah but I still miss the Deja vu mechanic. Now it instead has "Error" which is fine I guess. Would be cooler if it was another concept involving Delilah instead. Like picking her up to use better defensive moves and leaving her to trade for more offense.
I am pretty new to xrd and I have like 5 hours on bedman, but I still haven't found anyone capable of blocking all the stuff I throw at them when I get the mix-up going
0:01 everyone forgets the head And I mean Everyone! I had Paranoia because of this Mother Fucker! (It was fun while it lasted, I still hate how much I like Bedman, he is a Different Breed)
@@LucidButtonMasher unexplored???? It’s 2024, we’ve been maining him for years, we already know most of his buttons are minus on block and his super is ass, not to mention how his hurtbox is massive
Bedman when the opponent knows the matchup: i sleep
Bedman when the opponent doesn't know the matchup: I SLEEP
Genuine belly laugh. Take a pin good sir
REAL SLEEP!?
When opponent knows the matchup: 💤💤💤
When he doesn't: *Proceeds to recite entirety of War and Peace*
A quick power nap if they know, a coma if they don't
Bedman is designed to make you feel like a 400IQ mastermind and confuse the shit out of your opponent, and I love him dearly for that
It's a good look tbh
i mean, considering how wordy the bastard is...sounds about right
You could even say he's the most "slept" on character.
I both hate and love you lol
That was why I put that at the end of my video
Fitting pfp
Maybe but to me, he’s dreamy
society
bottom text
bedman was so awesome they had to kill him twice
Lol I heard about 6h
Bedman is the perfect example of a low tier that isn't such if your opponent doesn't know
Exactly true
A true knowledge check.
hes a low tier because hed be far too good if they buffed him a good bit
Favorite character in the franchise. Playing him truely is a rewarding treat.
Very fun to fuck around with
I only started Xrd when the Rollback beta came out and I went with Bedman as my character. I feel like I won a lot more games than I deserved because people just don’t know what he does lmao
He needs more attention
The fact that no one plays Bedman actually benefits those like myself who main him. This way, nobody knows the matchup!
Just like answer
@@LucidButtonMasher coincidentally, I've been learning him for the past week.
They're both sick to learn
_THAT'S MY BOY! THERE HE IS! HELL YEAH!_
Seriously though, thank you for making a video on Bedman. I've loved this character since day 1 of me playing Rev 2.
Anyways, have some advice for the MU from the perspective of a Bedman main. Enjoy!

Edit: Another piece of matchup knowledge is that Bedman's theme is written in C Minor.
That won't help you much while fighting him, but it's neat to know I guess.
Lol I love this
i love how his walk speed is practically a run
It's the fastest
I’m mad, because coming back into Xrd after playing strive, the one character I get attached to is the mf who died
Wait for his sister for strive i guess
@@LucidButtonMasher but she wont have the same moveset 😭
The bed still exists in the 2nd story for strive. Maybe the bed will be playable
@@zacharyt.834 good news, the bed will probably be playable
Good news!
Bedman really do be having one of the best themes in Xrd
It definitely goes in
Even if you knew what Bedman does, him being low tier (and debatably the worst character in the game) doesn't mean he can't do anything.

Me thinking zato might be worse overall than bed imo. More consistent setups and better buttons. All depends i guess
@@LucidButtonMasher Honestly you could be correct, but one thing Ive learned is that there is no definitive "worst" or "best" character unless they're actually useless like Potemkin's first appearance in the series, but games have come far enough to where you don't see so much of that anymore.

so basically “I can beat you in my sleep” the character.
very interesting concept daisuke
Love it
Tbh I think Bedman will probably be a better character now that we're getting Rollback, like how A.B.A went up the tier lists after the ACR rollback dropped
Oh true
Unlikely as even Japan believes that Bedman isn't that good. ABA was only considered low tier in North America before the rollback dropped.
I'm pretty new to Bedman and I never would've ever thought of doing some of the things seen in this video. Seriously, that off-screen k-ball recall was DIRTY. I wouldn't have ever expected that coming if I fought another Bedman.
Gotta look for the crazies
When you are a bedman main, like me, you know for a fact that while your character sucks, you have the immense power of "not knowing the matchup" so this is mildly accurate
The self unknown matchup lol
Yeeeeeeees a Bedman video, thanks Lucid
Big welcome
I love him so much he’s my beautiful sleepy boi
Me too! Best boi ever!
I'm sleep
I was waiting for so long for you to get around to covering my dear Bedboi. It usually takes people a while to remember he exists anyway so I guess it's understandable.
Nah just waited to get enough footage
Bottom of the iceberg: Bedman MU knowledge
Facts
That offscreen recall that teleported him is disgusting lol
It's the classic
YES. Finally my main gets to shine in a vid :D
He's shining alright
1:07
BROSKI IS LITERALLY PLAYING MVC 3 WTF
Magneto shit
Once you enter the bedman zone there's no escaping the bedman zone 😆
Unable and don't want to
FINALLY my bedboi makes it onto the channel
He deserves it
lost the opportunity the make the video title "the most slept on character"
I legit didn't want to. So overdone, thats why I put it at the end slide
@@LucidButtonMasher fair enough
DVJA' is so funny to me. He replays something while he's a million miles in the air and then he's right next to you and beating you up for thinking you were safe.
Off screen nonsense is best
I’m pretty sure Delilahs been confirmed to be the next strive character, so I really wanna know just how similar to Bedman she’ll be and after playing XRD, I’m terrified for the idea of that character returning in any way
The recall stuff hopefully stays
@@LucidButtonMasher It’s removed, but it makes sense. Bedman is dead after all. The Bedframe would likely not have access to the Dreamlike Reality powers Bedman had.

@@joshu4776 Dude, I was super fucking wrong. Each of the malfunctions are exactly the same as the moves used to instigate them.
I’m a Bed main now.
it- its the bedman vid? its... perfect
Hehe
I am pretty new to xrd and I have like 5 hours on bedman, but I still haven't found anyone capable of blocking all the stuff I throw at them when I get the mix-up going
That's the beauty of it
Bedman may be one the most underused characters but still his theme is a banger to this day
That's why my themes are on random
@@LucidButtonMasher lol enjoying the rollback though?
It's an absolute treat to stream
I have tried him but I just can't. His theme tho, it's my absolute favourite from the new Guilty Gear era
It's so good
He forces you to think if you want to win.
A monkee’s greatest adversary…
It's the worst
Bro I main bedman in rev 2 he’s so fun
Is a character i wrote off but he is absolutely fun
What came first?
The Bed, or The Man?
The egg
bed boy :D
He be sleeping
Man I've been trying to understand Bedman but he's just such an odd character to play
Won't give up on learning him tho
Hell yeah dude go fot it
an uphill battle indeed
But once you're up there you're at least on a head start to your new hill
@@LucidButtonMasher what is life if not a bunch of hills to do battles up
Life is about ups and downs after all
Also has the best and literal wake-up super
Can be thrown
This video makes me want to play Bedman.
That's the point. Go for it dude
my favorite gg character ever
Definitely an interesting one
YES we love bedman content :D
As do i
I wonder how he would play in Strive. He looks mad complicated but really fun to play.
Well it wouldn't be him specifically but his sister might be different
@@LucidButtonMasher good point, I forgot about his storyline.
@@LucidButtonMasher IN YO PHUCKIN PHACE DOG DAMN WITH THE FUTURE READ OVER HERE
I mean the man never returned
@@LucidButtonMasher you can call it what you want, and a poltergeist of Bedman is more Bedman than not Bedmam. I'll take what I can get, I'm easy ✌
uhhh i started to try raven now i have to try this one
Give it a go. He's fun
0:01 everyone forgets the head
And I mean Everyone! I had Paranoia because of this Mother Fucker!
(It was fun while it lasted, I still hate how much I like Bedman, he is a Different Breed)
Bedman cool
I like this character
Me too tbh
this character makes you lose sleep on what even happened
Works as intended
Majin Obama describes him as a Marvel character that calls his own assists with an unfortunately low ceiling as of the last rev patch
Honestly not untrue
As a strive player, what in the genuine fuck is happening in this video
Cool shit
How is this not a video about Answer
Already did that, thats why
I SAW SOMWHERE DAISUKE (THE CREATOR OF THE GAME) SAID THAT HE REGRETS PUTING BEDMAN IN GG.....
Damn why
@@LucidButtonMasher JYIUNA ALSO TALKED ABOUT IT...I DNT KNOW WHY..
That guy can't be taken seriously sometimes
@@LucidButtonMasher U GUYS SHOULD FIGHT !!!TO SEE WHOS BETER HIS LEO OR UR SLYR
Now that rollback exists anything can happen
bedman's biggest strength is being so much of a bottom tier that no one can be bothered to learn the matchup lol
Debatable. If anything he's unexplored enough that no one knows if he really is bad or not
@@LucidButtonMasher unexplored???? It’s 2024, we’ve been maining him for years, we already know most of his buttons are minus on block and his super is ass, not to mention how his hurtbox is massive
Takes more than that for sure
@@LucidButtonMasher i mean congrats on baiting engagement but like thats just a bad take lol\
I just believe any character can be good and there are character specialists out there like gc yoshi who continuously push the bedman meta
he ded. So can we get delilah in gg strive ? im asking for mixups
Very possible
Isn't it great when a zoner can go full rushdown mid-match?
It's impressive
I thought Slayer 6P could cure cancer, why didn't it save you here?
Fake news it never loses
I love playing bedman hes so mean
Mean sleepy boy
I absolutely HATE fighting this guys either online or in m.o.m.
He's pretty funny
Hall Barbara White Matthew Davis Anthony
Nani
Why you make this videoooooo:((((((
Now people will know how to fight meeee
Hehehehe
I feel like Bedman is the character you play when you want to feel like a genius, as well as Answer.
My beloved Answer 😍
Both very similar
This isn't answer
Already got a video for that
Combination of mary sue in story cutscenes and being a silly design even for GG is why no one played him :P
Sad
