I see a lot of people kinda lost to the applications of JG. So I wanted to write about how to do JG itself, the 4 basic applications I see people using and the technical nonsense that ensues as a result. Oh, and break it down so the people who don't get the technical stuff will understand WTF I'm talking about :)
Doing the JG itself. - The JG is done by tapping G quickly. This will create a window after you release where your character will JG any attack it would have guarded.
It's been a couple of weeks since our last episode, and we wanted to make sure we got some coverage for PowerUp, the most recent Evo event. So, we brought on MysticBill, who took home a respectable 3rd place and who we hope will represent the Midwest strongly when he goes out to Evo.
As usual, we discussed more than just this one event and touched on Bill's thoughts on how SCV is progressing as well as his thoughts on the recent MLG event. Bill is also going to be at Season's Beatings, so we asked him a little bit about his preparation for that event. And, per our wont, we bounce around a lot at the end, talking about pretty much anything we can think of.
Also, expect our next episode to be one of the 8 players at the MLG event that just past, so be on the lookout!

Yesterday, the top 8 players from the MLG Winter Championships flew out to the MLG Studio in NYC to compete in the exclusive Fighter's Arena! In a stunning upset, Hawkeye (@iltokyoli) from Chicago, who came seeded in 8th place, defeated the 1st seeded player Keev from France in an almost completely one-sided 4-1 Grand Finals!
Congratulations to Hawkeye for retaking the Soulcalibur title for America! In addition to the top 8 players, Rod "Slasher" Breslau from GameSpot.com was on hand to conduct interviews with the top two players throughout the day.
Hey guys, Spider here. Now that the community is fired up and information is flying left and right, it's getting harder to stay on top of what is relevant. In these articles, we'll compile the good stuff and bring it all straight to your front page.
If you are like me and missed the stream earlier today from France for Soul Arena #6, you can find the results, bracket and stream archives after the break. This is also a good opportunity to see Kayane and Keev compete before they fly back to the United States to compete at the MLG Fighter Arena this Saturday.
Special thanks goes to Hazu for streaming this tournament.
MLG has shared further details on their Fighter Arena which takes place this Saturday at their studio in New York City, NY. This thread has everything that you need in regards to the portion of the broadcast devoted to Soulcalibur V which begins at 2PM Eastern.
