====  [[#V-Trigger 1|V-Trigger 1]]: Maximum President ====
Gives Presidentiality Level-3 specials for the duration, enhances his current V-Skill, and gives the ability to cancel one of his special moves into another one. Can lead to cheeky conversions, huge amounts of combo damage, and can also make certain special moves safe. Depending on the level G was before he activated V-trigger, increases the length of Maximum President with level 3 being the longest.
====  [[#V-Trigger 2|V-Trigger 2]]: Dangerous President ====
Offers G 2 new moves: G Explosion, a combo-ender that adds decent damage and a good amount of stun, and G Rage, a command grab with 1 hit of armor, granting him an additional defensive option or mixup tool. Since it is 2 bars, it can be activated more often at less of a cost than Maximum President.
====  [[#V-Skill 1|V-Skill 1]]: G Barrier ====
G surrounds himself with an orb of energy around him, granting him single-hit fireball protection or as an anti-air tool. Also used as a combo-ender/extension. In V-trigger 1, G surrounds himself in energy and shoots the orb towards the opponent, able to soak up incoming projectiles and putting them in a juggle state on hit. Can be used in the air.
==== [[#V-Skill 2|V-Skill 2]]: G Protection ====
When used, G flexes a pose gaining damage protection increments of 10% and capped at 30% when used consecutively, until knocked down. If G were to lose a level, V-Skill's buff is lost instead. Can be canceled from any move that would cancel into G Charge or Message to the People.

Introduction

About G

Appearing seemingly out of nowhere, this mysterious fighter claims to be the "President of the World." He has a strong sense of unity and power, but the mystery still remains: who exactly is he? Is he related to Q, the mysterious fighter from Street Fighter 3? Was he a project made by the Illuminati? Does he have some sort of relation with Gill? We may never know.

G is a momentum-based, rushdown fighter with an oppressive ground game and excels at opening up opponents with good frame traps and normals, while also always threatening with a command grab. Being very momentum-based, it can result in G being a volatile character capable of rolling through the opponent's health bar once he gets a knockdown and is free to stack his levels/V-meter. Although he lacks in the defensive department, G makes it up as a solid character for those who want an aggressive playstyle with a simple game plan and versatile combos for micromanaging trading Presidentiality levels for Oki, or vice versa.

Strengths Weaknesses
  • With resources, his damage output gets very high and also has inherently great corner carry and Oki.
  • Great frame traps with normals and mixups with a command grab.
  • Solid pokes and anti-airs, potentially strong fireball, and many bursts-of-movements moves give him a great and versatile neutral game
  • Both 2 useful v-skills and 2 powerful 2 triggers give G a lot of versatility and options in matchups
  • Without any levels or resources, his damage is lacking, and loses several of his neutral tools
  • Has to burn resources quickly, when without any levels, to get a notable reward for his offense
  • Indifferent movement options
  • Severe lack of defensive options, no 3-frame or invincible reversal, resulting in reliance of V-Gauge and knowledge of matchup


Unique Mechanics

G's unique mechanic is Presidentiality, a level system that allows him to buff his special moves to emphasize his snowballing play style. G starts every round at Level 1 and can rank up to Level 3. His level is always indicated by the Globe icon next to the V-Gauge.

Level up by inputting G Charge (22PP). Anytime G is knocked down he loses 1 level (unless V-Skill 2 has been applied). G Charge can be used to cancel certain normals and specials, but with some rules:

  • G Charge can be held to increase the charge time and level up to 3 at once.
  • G Charge can be canceled into from 4HP, 6HP, 2HK, V-Skill 1 and special moves (excluding G Impact) however you cannot hold the input for any effect.
  • Standing LP, HP, LK, and all crouching punches can cancel into held G Charge.
  • V-Trigger 1 will force G to Level 3 presidentiality while it is active among other effects.

See the Strategy page for more information.
