Mankind has succeeded in his dream of developing a natural, limitless energy supply. It was the dawning of the Age of Magic. Science and industry, the source of enviromental pollution and weapons of mass destruction, were outlawed. This controversial decision was to bring history as mankind knew it to an end... However, the abolition of technology did little to soothe mankind's suffering. A war erupted, fueled by fearsome weapons based on rapidly developing magical theory. Eventually, shockingly powerful biological weapons were produced by fusing human and animal DNA with magic, resulting in a horrible mix of vitality and raw strength. This was the birth of the Gears. The powerful military state that produced the Gears monopolized the manufacturing process, bringing countless other lands under its control. These Gears were designed to be litle more than slaves, incapable of independant thought. Yet from among their ranks a rebel appeared, announcing himself to be self-aware. This insurrectionist, calling himself Justice, gathered an army of fellow Gears and declared war on all mankind. Despite heavy initial casualties to these renegade Gears, the humans put their differences aside and formed an elite group of warriors to combat the Gear menace. This group of brave heroes became know as the Sacred Order of Holy Knights. One hundred years of brutal war later... The fierce battle between the Gears and the humans, which had become known as the Crusades, was finally at an end. The heroic Sacred Order had sealed Justice inside an impenetrable dimensional prison, and it was only a matter of time before the remaining masterless Gears were rounded up and destroyed. However, five years after the end of the Crusades, the walls of Justice's dimensional prison have unexpectedly begun to erode away. Assessing the threat before them, the world's leaders quickly organize an internalional fighting tournament to select members for a proposed Second Sacred Order of Holy Knights. Astoundingly, the prize for this tournament was said to be literally anything one desired: The victor would get to make a single wish... any wish at all. Yet in the panic surrounding the imminent decay of Justice's dimensional prison, few seemed to take notice of the rather suspicious rules of this tournament, such as the welcoming of criminals, and the permission to shed blood during the matches... *********************************************************************** Section B--Controls *********************************************************************** Note: If you have the dual shock controller and want the rumble function, enter options menu and turn it on. F : Foward B : Back D : Down (Crouch) U : Up (Jump) - 2x Continue this with FF, BB to Fly P : The PUNCH button (Square by default) K : The KICK button (X by default) WS : The WEAK SLASH button (Triangle by default) HS : The HEAVY SLASH button (Circle by default) S : Either the WEAK SLASH or HEAVY SLASH button L1 : The TAUNT button R1 : The CHARGE button Start button.... Pause Game Select button....Open Exit menu while paused Note: All moves in this faq assume that you are facing right, the Player 1 side. Reverse commands if facing the opposite. ************************************************************************ Section C--Credit ************************************************************************ This is my first attempt at creating a faq. I have done all I could to make this as detailed as possible so that you will not have any difficulties playing and enjoying this game. I would like to thank Atlus for publishing Guilty Gear they made an awesome choice, and I hope that Arc Systems and Team Neo Blood create a second installment. If you have any problems in regard to this faq,send questions & comments to: valkryie@ignmail.com ************************************************************************ Section D--Instant Kill and Codes ************************************************************************ Note:Do not learn, but master the Instant Kill move and how to evade it, god knows how many times I fell victum to the Computer. Instant Kill-Works with all characters Press P + K (Close to opponent) Screen will flash Red In this instant(during Red screen) press D,DF,F + P + K if it connects you will know To evade the Instant Kill When the screen turn Red(from your opponents actions) Quickly do the instant kill backwards D, DB,B + P + K Codes-How to Obtain Justice, Testament and Baiken without beating the game. When you first boot the game, andthe white "Sony" screen appears, hold (Down + Square + L1 + R2) and keep them down throughout the booting process up until the message "Team neo blood" fades out. When you start the game, Testament, Justice and Baiken will be unlocked without you needing to finish the game. Note: This Code does work, instead of revealing the Secret characters,it instead puts the game in HARD mode, which you will see blinking on the bottom of every match. Believe me, its suicide playing in this mode. I have not once been able to get it to work and believe its a lie. Even my friends cannot get it to work. Some joke huh? To find out how to get the characters the hard way goto the bottom of the faq. ************************************************************************ Character Profiles with Moves, and basic strategies ************************************************************************ Section I-Sol Badguy Height: 6' Weight: 163 lbs Blood Type:"Unknown" BirthPlace: America Birthday:"Unknown" Eye Color: Brown Hobbies: Listening to Queen Favorite Thing: Queen's Album "Sheer Heart Attack" Dislikes: Great effort, "Doing your best" MOVES charge - F,D,DF + R1 Gun Flame: D,DF,F + S Vulcanic Viper : F,D,DF + S (air) Lev 1 - Standard Uppercut Lev 2 - Higher Uppercut Lev 3 - Stright Uppercut, create huge fire wall Bandit Revolver: D,DF,F + K (air) Riot Stamp: D,DB,B + K Super: Dragon Install: D,DB,B,D,DB,B + WS Tyrant Rave : F,DF,D,DB,B,F + HS ----------------------------------------------------------------------- Section II-Ky Kiske Height: 5'11 Weight: 128 lbs Blood Type: AB BirthPlace: France Birthday: November 20th Eye Color: Blue-Green Hobbies: Collecting Teacups Favorite Thing: Happy Faces, Laughter Dislikes: Sol MOVES charge - D,DF,F + R1 Stun Edge: D,DF,F + S Lev 1 - Standard projectile Lev 2 - Bigger projectile Lev 3 - The biggest and chained projectile Flying Stun Edge: (jump) D,DF,F + WS Vapor Thrust: F,D,DF + S (air) Stun Dipper: D,DF,F + K Needle Spike: F,DF,D,DB,B + K Super : Ride The Lighting: B,DB,D,DF,F,B,DB,D,DF,F + HS ----------------------------------------------------------------------- Section III-May Weight: 5'2 Weight: 93 lbs Blood Type: B Birthplace: "Unknown" Birthday: May 5th(The day Johnny Saved her) Eye Color: Black Hobbies: Thinking of Johnny Favorite Thing: Johnny Dislikes: Bald people MOVES charge - D,DF,F + R1 Aqua Rolling: D,DF,F + WS (air) Lev 1 - Standard Roll Lev 2 - Lesser range with larger damage Lev 3 - Short range with tons of damage Restive Rolling: F,D,DF + WS (air) Continue with WS to drop Mist Finer: D,DB,B + WS Continue with WS + WS + WS ... to speed up Overhead Kiss: B,DB,D,DF,F + P Crescent Aqua Rolling: B,DB,D,DF,F + WS Lev 1 - Standard Roll Lev 2 - Lesser range with larger damage Lev 3 - Short range with tons of damage Dolphin Attack: B,DB,D,DF,F + HS Super : Aqua Final Blow: B,F,DF,D,DB,B + HS ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Section IV-Kliff Undersn Height: 5'10 Weight: 121 lbs Blood Type: AB Birthplace: Switzerland Birthday: September 9th Eye Color: Brown Hobbies: Sailing Favorite Thing: His priceless Japanese teacups Dislikes: Fashionable,voguish words MOVES charge - D,DF,F + R1 Houkou Gaeshi: D,DF,F + P Lev 1 - Standard small projectile Lev 2 - Longer range Lev 3 - Covers half the stage Sugaisai: D,DB,B + WS Kubimatagi: D,DB,B + K Urokohagashi: WS + WS + WS ...

In future updates I hope to include boss meetings(Rivals ect.. you meet before the end)and Individual Strategies to beating them(They are usually the hardest to defeat). 1.)If your ever in a corner, GET OUT!, that is the worst spot to be in, try to lead the computer there and knock a few hits off. Repeat if its a cheap character(Justice anyone?) 2.)If the computer makes the screen flash Red, quickly use the reverse Instant kill to evade his attack, and try to reverse it onto him. Chances are you can probably pull it off since he is in a vulnerable state. 3.)When Fighting Sol, never stay on the ground. Stay in the air and slash attack him. Repeat but never get to close, since he will attempt the instant kill. Watch out for his Riot Stamp since that is his basic strategy next to his supers. 4.)When going against Justice, jump attack him and when you connect with the hit and land immediatly do a combo attack. You will do incredible amounts of damage to him. If the air attack doesn't connect get away from him as fast as you can and try to repeat it. NEVER EVER STAY CLOSE TO HIM, or too far away or he will use his massively cheap super giga laser on you. ************************************************************************ Rival List ************************************************************************ Note: This list is partially complete.
