    Astaroth Offical General Discussion

    I just read that guard impact will parry throws. Does anyone know if astaroth’s throws aren’t affected like in soul calibur 3?

    Astaroth Offical General Discussion

    Haven't been to this webpage in what looks like 6 years, but now that Astaroth is back I'M BACK! So haven't followed SCVI too much, but the trailer looks pretty alright. Anything about the new game system so far that would make him better or worse because of his gameplay style?

    Astaroth Anti Strings/Frametraps via Bullrush BE

    Wow, Cervantes' too? I would think that stab would poke him right in the head. Weird properties on a pretty weird (awesome?) move. Oh well, I'll take it.

    I haven't been able to test play human opponents in a while, but from what I read the regular will hit as a counter hit I think. I think the BE will only combo if you land the ground grab relatively close. Evidently the ground grab doesn't just put you at the same distance no matter what.

    I'll only use it for 1. the kill 2. ring position (but only if I feel it is really worth it) In general I agree. Meter is pretty fun to have with Asta. (especially now with the CE buff)

    You're my hero. Was this the patched version?

    Asta Punishment list

    I didn't look for anything in particular. I just remember it being done pretty often in SCIV and I'm not sure if I've seen or heard of anyone doing it at all in SCV. Crouch Throw is like 13 frames right? That should grab most lows on block. I guess I just don't know which end in ducking.

    Asta Punishment list

    I remember it being pretty common in SC4 but haven't tested recently, but can you punish most lows with crouch throws in this game or are there just better options?

    It TC I thought. Goes under highs near the beginning.

    1aa Nerf... Who know... If anything it does kind of do a lot for what is usually a guaranteed hit. I'm mostly looking forward to the free 10 dmg after the 22B BE with more 66B clean hits. B command grab does about 110 with 66b clean hit and 22B BE.

    Astaroth's Combo (Discussion)

    oo, make it a private video for us asta players only so they won't patch it!

    Astaroth Q&A/Discussion Thread

    Is this for real? If so, I would consider it an overall buff. A command grab doing 75 dmg makes it nearly as scary as the b throw. I can live with those changes. A few neglible dmg nerfs and a lot of useful dmg buffs. What exactly does the 66k be buff mean?

    Astaroth Q&A/Discussion Thread

    Is anyone worried/curious/excited about the balance patch? There shouldn't be any reason to nerf Asta right? ....right? I hope they give him jf dmg on his a command grab. I can see them maybe toning down his wall damage.... We shall see.

    In the second vid, some small suggestions... You landed 44[A] and then just walked up. I assume you thought you were too far to combo A, B or 6B or whatever. At any range, 66K should connect. If you are a little closer, you can land 4A and get the free crouch throw attempt after. That and...

    You have revitalized my interest in Asta again. After getting destroyed at Final Round I felt like Asta couldn't compete, but I now see that I maybe just need to rely on his attacks more than his throws. Didn't you switch to Maxi?

    Cervantes Match Vids

    I was the asta player you played first round. That pool WAS ridiculous. I felt so demoralized only going 1-2, but then I realized losing to Hates and JTO within my first 3 matches doesn't really reflect the ranking. I think I might start practicing up with Cervy now that I've seen how Asta...

    Just went 1-2 with Asta at final round. Did a lot worse than I thought I would. Played casuals and was winning most my matches. Waited around 4 hours to play my pools and had to play hates first round who used to be an Asta player. Anyways he was using cervy and I only managed to get one round...

    Astaroth Q&A/Discussion Thread

    - command G+B, 22B BE, 66K BE. Is this combo worth the bar expense? If it's for the kill I'll spend all the meter possible. If it's just for kicks? No, I wouldn't say so. I believe you can tack on another 66K BE after the first as long as they don't tech. Of course, you can also add 2A after...

    Astaroth Q&A/Discussion Thread

    I wanna main Asta since he fits my style, but I'm definitely starting to feel like a lot of the other characters have a lot easier time... I was actually looking at Cervy myself. I think it would be fine if they just toned down the damage on some of the faster characters. I still think...

    Asta Match-up List

    I don't know if it's the right strategy, but I tend to just stay on the ground a little bit longer and just get hit by the bombs to avoid them on wakeup. They don't do much damage by themselves. When it comes to both characters standing and she does it, I've started training myself to react with...
