Queen Dizzy officially debuts in Guilty Gear Strive on October 31st, but Arc System Works has also confirmed a balance update for the same day. A new trailer highlights all the changes and buffs for the entire roster, including some new moves (like Chipp’s new Thightrope). Check them out below alongside a killer new song.

A Reddit comment has compiled all the changes, though these are based on observations from the trailer. They include Sol Badguy’s Heavy Mob Cemetery costing 100 Tension, and the option to cancel moves into it. Potemkin’s Potemkin Buster now has armor (one hit, but it still counts), and Ramlethal can deploy Bajoneto diagonally and cancel into Sabrobato.

Players can also cancel Goldlewis’s Behemoth Typhoon and launch another at the cost of Security Level while Jack-O can dash cancel Servant Shoot. And yes, even Slayer got some buffs, like reduced recovery on his forward kick. Stay tuned for official notes when the update goes live.
