"I just GOTTA be a BAIKEN MAIN, Right?!" The title to Max's new light novel series, where he fights to be not just the best Baiken main in Strive, but the best Baiken in all games across the world.
Nah, it's not long enough for a light novel title. "In another world with my fighting stick I just GOTTA be a BAIKEN MAIN, Right?!" is the more appropriate length.
5:10 “I tried to go for counter like an idiot… I wanted the hype finish” as an Anji main I can relate I’ve thrown many times because I want to do wake up counter for the finisher
Another small thing i love about GG is the characters have like 2 to 3 different voice sets of them saying their moves. For example; baiken randomly says tatami in both a fierce and relaxed tone. And all of the characters does it. I always wanted capcom to adopt that style for street fighter, it would be a minor- yet fresh- touch to the series.
One thing Strive does unique to other entries is that if you win with certain special moves, a unique voicelines plays where the character shouts the special move used even harder. This happens most commonly with reversals (DPs) and it's hype.
I think this is a huge, affordable quality upgrade that nearly all video games have needed since day one. If I was a game developer, all of the common recurring sounds or voice lines would have at least three versions that occur randomly.
@@ihaveaplan.ijustneedmoney.9777 N you can tell who was raised by the Online era 😒. That’s one of the things I love about Max, he takes his loses like a champ
Baiken is so cool. I just wanna see more of her. Like if she could have her own badass anime or story driven action game. Maybe it's just because I'm not really interested in playing this game and still think Baiken is such an awesome character.
I still cannot get over how good this game looks. This whole 2D-looking 3D art style! If ArcSys licensed this technology to Capcom for their next Street Fighter, I would be over the moon!
Look, i get it...but for the last 2 games, Street Fighter has had a rather questionable art style, IMHO. Let's just say i think the MvC3 models look better artistically than SF4 or 5. And if they ever go back to the Alpha series.......
Always seems strange when Tatami is used but it gets eaten by the opponents attack. Kind of feels like it should act like when Akuma throws an air fireball, but is attacked on the way down and the opponent gets slapped on the head by that fireball, interrupting their attack.
The more I play Baiken the more I wish there was an option to shoot the tether upward. I feel like she’s lacking in overhead options… like I get she has options but no combo options for overhead
Something felt missing from her tether to me, that was totally it. I think they cut it to make her 236S her more focused anti-air. Personally I still wish there was a bit more with the counter. A reflect/parry for projectiles would have been pretty cool and I wouldn't have questioned the removal of the Alpha-Couner system at all if she still had some more unique counter options.
@@kc_graves6248 I was the Millia and yeah I'm finding alot of Baikens are doing reversal super so I found it better to wait and see what they're gonna do first then pressure
The only thing bad about baiken....is that EVERYONE is now Baiken. I've got mirror matches for days... But I'm not able to learn any matchups because it's just an ocean of Baiken in the lobbies (although a literal ocean of Baiken would be lovely)
Aside from I-no, Jack-o and Ram, Baiken is one of my favorite characters to play in strive. She’s really reinvigorated my love for Strive man, I love the fact that with her tether ability I can just freestyle some crazy bullshit that actually does hella damage. Definitely the best DLC character we’ve gotten so far IMO
That reminds me, do you know what song was playing while he was fighting Ky? I've listened to the Strive OST obsessively, but I don't recognize this one.
A baiken main would never go for the stupid hype finish unless it was the insta kill even though your opponent would have been killed by any other move 😂
I mean I know Baiken is great and an OG but Millia has a similar title so its a battle of the greats here granted we both know who is more distinguished on a number of levels.. The eye patch and the missing arm is a sign... of a true veteran Warrior that Millia does not have..
You also haven't gotten it yet, huh? Same for me as well. I've been putting it off for other games like i did with GGxrd. I'll most likely get it when it goes on sale.
@@LandofBrickForests I felt burnt by getting GG XRD and then there were no upgrade path to REV 2. You basically had to buy the game again and that left a bad impression on me so that's why I'm hesitant to get GG Strive.
@@RicochetForce I hope you're right and they keep their word. I still bought Rev 2 but on PC and dirt cheap. I'm the type that gets Deluxe or Ultimate Editions to support devs so if Strive truly won't go Rev 2 then I'll be getting Strive sooner than later.
man I bought the game at launch. played a good month. put it down because I’m a marvel 3 addict. baiken released. now I have to make to to the top of the tower in ranked I just got to.
In my mind the tether is an amazing mechanic. Strength: it allows Baiken to perform combos & mix-ups that normally are not possible. Weakness: it allows opponents to perform combos & mix-ups that normally are not possible. "Pretty isn't it, perfectly balance... as all things should be" Thanos.
Question. Did anyone notice that when Baiken is on the right side of the screen she is missing the left arm, and when on the left side, she is missing the right arm? .
Either Max has never played GGS consistently, or every DLC character he plays is always getting beaten out until the next patch. Like, does Max ever play any DLC character after the first week?
I cant be the only person to have thought that when Baiken does her throw and applies her tether that it literally looks like shes tackling other characters to the ground and ripping their lunch right out of their arsehole right?
I don't like anime girl that are over the top, I find they often go too far but I don't mind Baiken. Her other features are bad ass as well so I don't realy focus on her chest. (look at those thicc wrapped thighs god damn, her hair too reminds me of goku ssj3 but red)
I’m so glad the love for Baiken has made this game EXPLODE once again! And yes, I can definitely see Max be a Baiken main.
"I just GOTTA be a BAIKEN MAIN, Right?!"
The title to Max's new light novel series, where he fights to be not just the best Baiken main in Strive, but the best Baiken in all games across the world.
He's gotta be, the very best, like no one ever was.
Nah, it's not long enough for a light novel title.
"In another world with my fighting stick I just GOTTA be a BAIKEN MAIN, Right?!" is the more appropriate length.
even in games that baiken is not in right? haha
5:10 “I tried to go for counter like an idiot… I wanted the hype finish” as an Anji main I can relate I’ve thrown many times because I want to do wake up counter for the finisher
I completely understand. I’ve lost a few matches with Baiken trying to win with her parry, it costs to live a life of style bruh😂
As a Anji main and Baiken secondary, it's double the pain for me
What's the point of winning if it's not with style?
I love how gruff and unhinged her Japanese VA is
Another small thing i love about GG is the characters have like 2 to 3 different voice sets of them saying their moves. For example; baiken randomly says tatami in both a fierce and relaxed tone.

Capcom are lazy AF with voice lines.

@@leithaziz2716 Very cool 😊👍
@@tobyvision I agree 100%. I would do the same if i was a dev too.
I love when max is getting absolutely fondled by another player but after some matches max starts clapping back
Adapt. Adapt. Adapt. It’s always so beautiful to see.
First match is always data as we used to say
Max being Mr. "I grew up in the Arcade era" really shows in how chill he is with getting beaten up.
@@ihaveaplan.ijustneedmoney.9777 N you can tell who was raised by the Online era 😒. That’s one of the things I love about Max, he takes his loses like a champ
27:34 yeah I would react the same way there if I landed that.
Don't come wide withe me, bro!
Something about her voice is just amazing when she calls out her attacks! Man Baiken made it feel like guilty gear strive just got out! Just amazing
if you were a native japanese speaker I'm sure it would sound pretty bad.
@@jonc8561 how?
@@jonc8561 nonsense 😂 she's an amazing voice actress & I've seen Japanese fans praising her voice acting a lot
Sounds like over acted gibberish.
@@kayoh310 u clearly don't know wtf voice ACTING is & it shows
Max seems like he's putting just about as much effort into Baiken as her Japanese VA did. A lot.
I love watching Max play GG about as much as 3rd Strike. More of this and DBFZ with rollback would be the most fun timeline
Max knows baiken has a big... EYE PATCH. He gets it.
The one eye and arm samurai meets the one handed gamer, it was destiny after all.
Baiken is so cool. I just wanna see more of her. Like if she could have her own badass anime or story driven action game.
Maybe it's just because I'm not really interested in playing this game and still think Baiken is such an awesome character.
Oh hey, another Bionicle fan 👋
@@DragonaxFilms Oh hey, Dragonax. Fancy meeting you here. xD
@@DragonaxFilms What does bionicle have to do with anything?
Yes she is super cool and would love to more of her in general
@@InTheEnd75 We are both fans of bionicle and recognized that. It had nothing to do with the actual video. x)

Nah I don’t want everything looking like this, there are enough already, Capcom should do their own shit
We don't need every game to look the same.
Look, i get it...but for the last 2 games, Street Fighter has had a rather questionable art style, IMHO. Let's just say i think the MvC3 models look better artistically than SF4 or 5. And if they ever go back to the Alpha series.......
Capcom needs to find some damn talent in their art department because weird naked hulk doll bodies aint it
pause at 1:55 and look at the against the wall Baiken sprite. Shit is funny and amazing
I love how the riffs of Midnight Carnival happen right when he does the combo.
Always seems strange when Tatami is used but it gets eaten by the opponents attack. Kind of feels like it should act like when Akuma throws an air fireball, but is attacked on the way down and the opponent gets slapped on the head by that fireball, interrupting their attack.
Well this was fun to watch. She looks like a fun character and I learnt a bit from the Ky player too.
The more I play Baiken the more I wish there was an option to shoot the tether upward. I feel like she’s lacking in overhead options… like I get she has options but no combo options for overhead
Something felt missing from her tether to me, that was totally it. I think they cut it to make her 236S her more focused anti-air.

I felt the same way. I feel like she should have an aerial tether or anti air tether to snatch folks out the sky.
TK youzansen is p good overhead but hard to do on controller
What's the song that played during the Ky fight? That shit was awesome and I never heard it in game before
Always love Max’s appreciation for Baiken
That Millia landed so many 2k 2d > H-tandem and never did any mix afterwards. She always landed and crouched on the ground and gave up pressure.
Probably scared of counter, baiken's counter does hella damage to millia
@@unnamedminus can't counter tandem (projectile). more likely baiting the reversal super, max was throwing it out liberally in their set.
@@kc_graves6248 can't counter tt but can counter almost any wakeup attack option like j hs or 2k

@@shorue2079 makes sense, just so you know, kapel beats wake up super. It sometimes loses to counter for some reason tho
My first Guilty gear game and wow this game is so good.
Been playing a lot of Giovanna and Chipp
and the baiken is so fun in general.
34:17 Did Max just make a Legend of Zelda cartoon reference?
Back againt with the perfectly timed intros
The only thing bad about baiken....is that EVERYONE is now Baiken.
I've got mirror matches for days... But I'm not able to learn any matchups because it's just an ocean of Baiken in the lobbies (although a literal ocean of Baiken would be lovely)
I’m so happy with her, have been waiting for a year and a half and it was worth the wait
Um what timeline are you from? Cuz in this one strive has been out less than a year
@@doctorix7800 been waiting for her reveal homie
these matches were incredible that millia and ky knew what they were doing
Loving your username “Sal Doodguy” 😂 genius dood
Max is gonna go wild when he sees the KOF 15 news today 😳

Daily Guilty Gear videos because Baiken came back? Max is a true Baiken Main.
Max, Ky's flipkick that's also very plus isn't an overhead.
Against Ky you should default to blocking low and reacting to dust and jump-ins.
Yo what is the song thats playing during Max's match against the Ky player? It's kind of a banger!
Storyteller
@@RedVagrantD Thanks dude
My problem is that I played for 2 hours yesterday and only fought Baiken, until the very end when I met a Leo...
honestly I say yes best Baiken Ive seen so far and the best guilty gear gameplay I seen from Max ever!!!!!!!!!
Max: Plays strive
Looks at the multitude of Godly OST tracks and vocal arrangements
Picks Midnight carnival
Laughs in nostalgia
*Sunglasses*
That reminds me, do you know what song was playing while he was fighting Ky? I've listened to the Strive OST obsessively, but I don't recognize this one.
whats the bgm for the millia games?
The Midnight Carnival. The them for Boss I-No in the XX games.
@@ksbabi yo thanks. Too many bangers in this series
The Midnight Carnival will always be a banger
Kabari side switch when ur in the corner feels like it has some depth to it
Baiken exploding the Guilty Gear community by storm and mains are now actually speaking truthfully now
I love the guilty gear content good stuff
back dash frames are huge , damn
Gotta learn them safe jumps!
idk about u guys , but im enjoying so much this baiken videos
That's one good Millia! I don0t think tethering her is the best idea.
They need work with their H Disks, but overall they got good reactions and have her RC bread and butter combos down well.
Baiken looks so god damn dope. too bad Im ass at fighting games and dont play them very often. I tried to get good when mk11 came out but eh.
MK11 is a clunky mess though.
A baiken main would never go for the stupid hype finish unless it was the insta kill even though your opponent would have been killed by any other move 😂
What fightstick does max use
max why are u not using the gun?
Learn the counter attacks to have more attack options
Give me one good reason to try gultiy gear
Watching that Millia made me want to die
Are you using a controller or a fight stick
I mean I know Baiken is great and an OG but Millia has a similar title so its a battle of the greats here granted we both know who is more distinguished on a number of levels..
The eye patch and the missing arm is a sign... of a true veteran Warrior that Millia does not have..
Millia washes Baiken easy.
Millie game play gives me Morrigan vibes
2 setplay characters vs each other. Noice. Those match are 5head af
Max making me want to buy Guilty Gear -Strive- just to play Baiken.
Buy xx accent core +. Better baiken, better game. 😄
You also haven't gotten it yet, huh? Same for me as well. I've been putting it off for other games like i did with GGxrd. I'll most likely get it when it goes on sale.

Hehe, needs more instant youzansens, max gotta work that into muscle memory
Only thing lacking is Max aint using Yozan its safe...
TUHTUMMY GAI!
Either Max has never played GGS consistently, or every DLC character he plays is always getting beaten out until the next patch.
Like, does Max ever play any DLC character after the first week?
That's Max in a nutshell tbh
I feel like the only games he consistently comes back to are Marvel vs Capcom and SF:III
@@aleflippy1997 makes a lot of sense. Thanks.
Naisuuu
But TF Max they released Rock Howard why are you here??
I guess the comments whining about the english dub got Max to change it.
So am I. Baiken Mains rise up
I guess...
It's all fun and games until she gets patched by people that loses against her
dam that combo tho
The video hasn’t been out for the length of it yet
no you don't gotta
but you shoulda
Seems like Max is having fun, so far…
Edit: Respect The Tether play!!!
Being a Baiken Main: Nah
Being Baiken's Main: Yeah
Sorry Max, but you'll never be a real Baiken main as long as you keep actually playing the character in front of other people
Hello
I wonder how Maximilian Dood will react the PS acquiring Bungie.
Baiken is the best
You can't be a Baiken main and play her. All Baiken mains do not play Baiken
I cant be the only person to have thought that when Baiken does her throw and applies her tether that it literally looks like shes tackling other characters to the ground and ripping their lunch right out of their arsehole right?
Is it me or does she switch which arm she lost when she changes sides? It is messing with my mind a bit too much now.
Yo nago is a hard counter to baiken.
Okay, yall. Bring in yall "Baiken got big [ something not her chest] joke here or where ever you want. It ain't never gonna be old...
Finally t he community can play with Baiken. These days are being pure rejoice.
Anyone see people online saying her..uh..milkers were too big? Like is that possible?
lol big deal, as if a couple of big virtual breasts was a world-crisis level problem...
... then again, twitter exists.
Only the usual woke suspects, but they’re only looking for something frivolous to complain about.
People just don't seem to get that Japan likes big booba and nothing is gonna change that
in game its fine, its just her splash art
