It’s been a couple of months since the Season 4 patch for Guilty Gear Strive was released. Indeed, the meta has changed significantly due to the adjustments featured with that update.
LordKnight recently released a video that details his current impressions of all the characters in Season 4. Of course, LordKnight isn’t quite ready to rank the roster on a tier list, but he did use a tier list template to provide an idea on how every combatant feels right now in the new meta.
First off, it’s worth mentioning that LordKnight is currently unsure of Asuka, Zato-1, Axl Low, Queen Dizzy, and Bridget. This implies that he hasn’t been able to play against too many opponents using these characters.
Goldlewis Dickinson, Ramlethal, Leo, Johnny, and Sin sit at the very top of LordKnight’s arranged tier list template. Not only are these characters seemingly very strong at the moment, but they may also be very problematic without nerfs in the future.
Of the characters that LordKnight is familiar with, it would appear that Millia Rage might be the weakest right now. At one point, LordKnight was actually maining Millia, but it would appear that the fighter now has too many problems to be competitively viable at the moment.
Despite all of this, it would seem that Guilty Gear Strive is in a fairly good place as 21 out of the 29 characters in the game seem to be either “fine” or better.
