Soul Calibur 6 Guide, Tips and Tricks

Tips to start playing

• Abusing the Reversal Edgecan seem like a very attractive and tempting idea, since it is a very fast way to fill your energy meter, although we recommend that you limit its use only when you are sure of hitting it, since it can be easily dodged (what which will leave you completely sold out) and will also lower your guard meter.
• Start by playing in Scale of the Soul mode. At the beginning of it you will find a complete and practical tutorial where they will teach you the bases to fight in this installment.
• The easiest way to ensure that a Critical Edge hits the enemy is to launch it into the air and execute it before it falls. In this way, we will be 100% assured that the rival cannot avoid it, although, yes, we will take much less life than if we managed to fit it outside of a combo.
• If an enemy resists you in Soul Balance, feel free to use food to empower yourself and counteract the special conditions of battle. It’s also often a good idea to stop for side quests to level up and acquire new weapons, which will make things much easier for you in the long run.
• Inferno is the most powerful character in the game, so he is the ideal choice to easily overcome Arcade Mode on its different difficulties with a gold medal.
• If this is your first time playing a SoulCalibur, you may want to start with characters like Kilik, Siegfried, Zasalamel or Geralt , since they have a very good attack range, are very versatile and are much easier to learn to master than most fighters. Of the template.
• If you manage to take the enemy’s back, try to make a grab: they take twice the life if they are made from behind. A good strategy against players who abuse vertical attacks a lot is to move to the sides to surround him and thus put this technique into practice.
• Study your opponent well to find the best moments to make guard hits. There are very predictable rivals that we can easily destabilize with this simple maneuver.
• In Balance of the Soul we can exchange the gold that we earn for soul pointsto unlock new content in the character editor and in the museum, although avoid resorting to this until it has been completed in its entirety, since you will need the money to be able to progress.
• This is very specific advice, but it is important that you know it. In scenarios with many edges that you can fall over, if you face Astaroth and enter a Reversal Edge sequence, be extremely carefulnot to use the horizontal attack. If Astaroth beats you with a vertical slash, especially if there was a draw in the first match, it is very likely that he will kick you off the stage almost automatically if he has an edge behind him. There are other characters that also have the ability to kick you out when you win a Reversal Edge with certain moves, but none are as dangerous as this one.
