We review this board game port with a fighting game player's mindset! Originally from the eXceed system, Guilty Gear Strive TBG by Lvl 99 Games takes CCG (card game) ideas to pit the famous GG fighters (e.g. Ky and Sol) against one another. But is the reduction of real-time gaming into turns and dropping bluffed attack cards worth the insane cost of this originally kickstarted box? Maybe you'd like to just buy the BlazBlue or original Exceed boxes for cheaper?

Some questions we've faced are how this box does matchups amongst grapple/mixup characters, and how overall asymmetric balance is. Are there deck manipulation ideas with the blue roman cancel you can do to boost attacks?
